Honest Vinyl Scanner is anonymous. No accounts. No location, ever. We don't sell your data.
Honest Vinyl Scanner is operated by Ing. Dmytro Trofymchuk, an independent sole trader (OSVČ) registered in the Czech Republic under IČO 87837072. This is the data controller for the purposes of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Contact: [email protected].
We do not collect: your name, email, contacts, precise or coarse location (GPS is never requested — the app has no location permission), or any advertising identifier.
We do collect, only to make the app work:
device and used solely to apply fair usage limits on the identification service. It is not tied to your name, email, or any account, because there is no account.
identification providers below to look up the release. We do not keep a copy on our servers.
image to complete the lookup.
When you scan a record, the photo and read text are sent to one or more of the following services to identify the release and its market value. Each is a data processor acting on our instruction, not an independent user of your data.
All requests to these providers are routed through our own proxy (Cloudflare Workers) so that API keys never live on your device. The proxy forwards only what's needed for the lookup — it does not add tracking of its own beyond the anonymous device id used for rate limiting.
Your scan history, identified records, and saved collection are stored locally on your device (`expo-sqlite`) and are never uploaded to us. Nothing leaves your device except the single scan image/text sent for identification, as described above.
You can permanently delete everything Honest Vinyl Scanner has stored on your device at any time from Settings → Clear local data. This removes your saved collection and scan history immediately and cannot be undone. Because we don't hold a server-side copy, this is a complete deletion.
Honest Vinyl Scanner is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Because the app requires no account and never collects location, contacts, or other personal identifiers, there is no personal information to collect from any user regardless of age beyond the anonymous device id described above.
If you are in the EU/EEA, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (in the Czech Republic, the Úřad pro ochranu osobních údajů, uoou.gov.cz). Because Honest Vinyl Scanner keeps no server-side copy of your data and stores everything locally on your device, you can exercise deletion yourself at any time via Settings → Clear local data. For any other request, email [email protected].
We may update this policy as the app changes. Material changes will be reflected in the app's release notes and this file's "Last updated" date.
