Privacy Policy — Tyche Ventures LLC

Tyche Ventures LLC ("we," "our," or "us") develops apps for everyday life, creative projects and time together. This policy covers tycheventuresllc.com and summarizes our app collection (the "Apps"). Each app-specific policy describes that product's actual features and data handling.

Website visits and support

This website is hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub receives website requests and logs visitors' IP addresses for security, including when visitors are not signed in to GitHub. See GitHub's privacy statement. Website hosting requests are separate from the local records in our apps.

Our current site does not embed advertising pixels or third-party analytics scripts. App Store, retailer and other external links open services with their own privacy practices. Some shopping links are affiliate links; qualifying purchases may earn us a commission. If you email support, we and our email provider receive your message, email address and any attachments so we can respond. Avoid sending private photos, passwords or full app backups unless a specific diagnostic detail is needed.

1. Intended audiences

Intended audiences and supervised family features vary by app. Family-planning features are designed to be configured and managed by an adult. Review the applicable app-specific policy and terms before allowing a child to participate or entering information about them.

2. Information We Handle

Our Apps do not automatically upload your locally stored app records to a Tyche Ventures LLC account or cloud database.

Records you enter in an App—such as profiles, names, preferences, photos, home records, and documents—are generally stored in that App's local container. We can receive information you deliberately send us, such as a support email or attachment. Some optional or app-functional features also send limited inputs to outside services; Section 5 and each app-specific privacy policy describe those cases.

3. Children's Privacy

Some of our Apps are designed to help parents and caregivers manage activities for children. Any information about children entered into the Apps is:

Stored locally by default and not automatically transmitted to Tyche Ventures LLC; device backups, exports, and sharing can create additional copies
Not automatically transmitted to Tyche Ventures LLC
Never used for advertising, tracking, or profiling
Fully under the parent/guardian's control and can be deleted at any time

A parent or guardian should review the app-specific policy and decide what information is appropriate to enter, export, or send through any optional outside service. We do not knowingly solicit children's personal information through this website or support email. Contact us if you believe a child has sent us personal information so we can review and address it.

4. Device Permissions

Some of our Apps may request access to device features such as the camera, photo library, or notifications for specific functionality (for example, barcode scanning, taking photos, document scanning, or reminders). Content selected or captured through those interfaces is kept in the App unless you choose to export or share it or an app-specific policy expressly describes a network-dependent feature. You can revoke permissions through your device's Settings.

5. Third-Party Services

Some of our Apps may interact with third-party services for specific features (e.g., product databases for barcode lookups, affiliate product links). When this occurs:

Only the minimum data necessary for the feature is sent (e.g., a barcode number)
The outside provider may also receive normal request metadata, such as an IP address, under its own policy
Each app-specific privacy policy lists the exact third-party services used

An app-specific feature may use a narrow relay operated by or for Tyche Ventures LLC before contacting an outside provider. Such a relay can process the feature input and ordinary request metadata and may create short-lived operational logs. The app-specific policy identifies the relay, purpose, and applicable retention details.

Apple App Store: App purchases, in-app purchases and subscriptions are processed by Apple. We do not receive your payment-card details or Apple Account password. Apple may provide sales and distribution reports under its services. Apple's privacy practices are governed by Apple's Privacy Policy.

Amazon Associates: Some Apps may contain links to products on Amazon.com using our affiliate tag. When you tap a product link, you are directed to Amazon, which receives ordinary browser, network, and—if you are signed in—account data under its own policy. Amazon may provide Tyche Ventures LLC with referral and commission reports; we do not receive your Amazon password or payment-card details. Amazon's privacy practices are governed by Amazon's Privacy Notice.

6. Data Storage and Security

Core App records are generally stored locally on your device using Apple's frameworks. Your data may be protected by:

Your device's passcode/biometric security (Face ID, Touch ID)
Apple's built-in data encryption (Data Protection)
No Tyche Ventures LLC app account or app-operated cloud-record service unless an app-specific policy says otherwise

Deleting an iPhone or iPad app normally removes its local app data; offloading an app is different. On Mac, removing the app can leave its saved data behind. Follow the product's support instructions to remove local records. Copies you exported, shared, or included in a device or system backup remain separate.

7. Data Breach Notification

We do not operate a central Tyche database of automatically uploaded App records. No storage or transmission method is risk-free, however. Device compromise, insecure exports, support email, system backups, and outside services can create separate risks. If we discover a material App vulnerability, we will address and communicate it as appropriate.

8. Analytics, Tracking, and Advertising

We do not embed third-party advertising or cross-app tracking SDKs in our Apps. App-specific policies identify any analytics behavior or outside service that applies. An outside website or API may use logs, cookies, or aggregate analytics under its own policy even when an App does not store or resend its cookies.

9. Data Sharing

We do not sell or rent your App records. Information can leave your device when:

An App sends the minimum feature input to a third-party API or narrow Tyche-operated relay (for example, a barcode or recall-search term); the provider or relay may also process normal technical request metadata
Content you explicitly choose to share (e.g., exporting a document, sharing via email or AirDrop)

10. Your Rights

You can control the records stored in an App:

Access: View local records through the controls provided by the App
Correction: Edit supported record fields using the App's available controls
Deletion: Delete individual records where the App provides that control. App removal behaves differently by platform, as described above; exported, shared, support-email, or backup copies must be removed separately at their destination.
Portability: Where supported, you can export your data (e.g., as PDF files)

Privacy rights vary by location and circumstance. To ask about information Tyche Ventures LLC may hold because you contacted us, use the address below. Requests concerning Apple, Amazon, CPSC, or another outside provider must also be directed to that provider as applicable.

11. Health, Safety, and Nutritional Disclaimer

Some of our Apps involve meal planning, food tracking, home maintenance, or child routines. These Apps are planning and organizational tools only and do not provide medical, nutritional, safety, or professional advice. Users are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy and safety of any information used in connection with our Apps and should consult qualified professionals for health, dietary, or safety decisions.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, through in-app notifications. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.

13. App-Specific Privacy Policies

Each of our Apps has its own privacy policy with details specific to that App's features and third-party services. The app-specific policy controls if it is more specific than this general summary:
