Privacy Policy (Smokeless)

1. Introduction

KUMAKIKAI, an app development brand operated by Yuya Nakamura (“we”), explains in this privacy policy how information is handled when you use Smokeless (“the app”) or contact us about it.

2. Information we handle

The app handles the dates and counts of smoked or avoided cigarettes, brands, cigarettes and price per pack, display, language, currency and alert settings, and the status of purchased features. No account or profile registration is required.

If you send an inquiry, we also handle its content, your sender or reply email address, and app or device information you provide. Google or Apple may handle the information described below for advertising and purchases.

3. How we use information

Records are used to show smoked and avoided counts, totals by period and charts. Pack counts and prices for each brand are used for money conversions, settings for display and alerts, and purchase status for access to purchased features. Inquiry information is used to respond and investigate issues.

4. Storage and management

Records and settings are stored on your device. We do not automatically obtain or view them. The home widget shares today’s counts and information needed for recording within the same iPhone. The app does not provide its own cloud sync or export of records as backup files.

The paired iPhone and Watch exchange the record time, smoked or avoided type, an identifier that prevents duplicate imports, today’s counts and the status of access to Watch features. Records made while disconnected are stored on Watch and imported into iPhone after reconnection. This is separate from cloud backup.

Device backups provided by the operating system are separate from app-managed sync.

When you contact us, we use the content you send, your reply email address, and any device or app information you choose to provide to respond and investigate the issue. We keep this information for as long as needed for support, then delete information that is no longer needed. Records required for legal purposes are kept only to the extent needed for those purposes.

5. External services and disclosure

Remove Ads and the Extra Brands Pack are one-time in-app purchases. Apple processes purchases and restorations; the app uses purchase status to provide purchased features. We do not receive payment card details. See the Apple Privacy Policy.

The contact feature prepares an email draft containing type, details, steps and notes, plus the app name, version, OS and device model. It does not send automatically; you review and send it yourself.

Apart from the advertising described below, actions you choose with external services, and cases required by law, we do not provide personal information we receive to third parties without your consent.

6. Advertising and analytics

The app displays ads using Google AdMob. For ad delivery, measurement, fraud prevention and service quality, Google may handle device or advertising identifiers, approximate location information, ad impressions and interactions, and diagnostic, performance or crash information. Handling varies with device settings, permissions and service conditions.

The app does not send smoked or avoided records for advertising. We do not use separate usage or crash analytics services of our own, but advertising-related analytics and diagnostics are included above. See the Google Privacy Policy.

A one-time Remove Ads purchase hides in-app ads.

7. Managing and deleting your data

You can delete records in the app and undo a deletion while Undo is displayed immediately afterwards. You can also change brand, display and other settings in the app.

Deleting the app removes its local app data. Check before reinstalling so that you do not lose records you need. Manage Watch data, operating-system backups and information you send outside the app at their respective storage locations. Deleting records does not cancel purchase information managed by Apple.

8. Changes to this policy

We revise this policy when laws, app features, or information handling change. We announce the changes and their effective date in the app or on the official website, and provide advance notice of changes that materially affect users. Where consent is required by law, we obtain it before applying the new handling practices.

9. Contact

You can use the contact option below to request access, correction, restriction of use, or deletion of personal information we hold, or to ask about the operator’s details. We verify your identity only to the extent needed to identify the relevant information and respond in accordance with applicable law. If we cannot fulfil a request, we explain why.
