Scrolar needs no account. Your study progress and preferences stay on your device. The free version can display Google AdMob banner ads; Scrolar Pro is ad-free. Advertising and content-hosting providers can process technical information as described below.
This policy describes information handling in the Scrolar iPhone app ("Scrolar", "the app", "we").
Scrolar is operated by its individual developer (the "operator"). For questions about this policy or information you send to us for support, contact scrolarapp@gmail.com.
Your chosen topics, study progress, review schedule, streaks, XP, quiz answers, and saved or liked cards are stored on your device. Scrolar does not send this study record to us or include it in ad requests. There is no Scrolar account. You can erase local study data in Settings → Clear Local Study Data, or by deleting the app.
If you email support, we receive the email address and information you choose to include so we can answer your request. Avoid sending sensitive information that is not needed to explain the issue.
The app downloads study content over HTTPS from GitHub Pages and its content-delivery network. Content requests do not include your local study record or a Scrolar account. Hosting providers can receive technical information such as your IP address and request time for delivery and security. Their handling of those records is described in their privacy terms, including GitHub's privacy statement.
Scrolar Pro is an optional subscription processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive your payment card details. The app uses Apple's StoreKit to determine whether your subscription is active and to restore purchases. See Apple's privacy policy for Apple's processing.
The free version can show a compact banner at the bottom of the app. Banners do not appear during onboarding or on the paywall. Scrolar does not request banner ads while Pro is active.
Scrolar includes Google's Mobile Ads SDK and User Messaging Platform (UMP). UMP presents privacy messages when required and allows you to revisit advertising privacy choices in Settings where available for your region. Ads are requested only when the consent system permits requests.
Pro can contact UMP to refresh the availability of privacy choices from earlier use of the free version. This update does not request banner ads.
Ad requests use the non-personalized setting. Scrolar does not request Apple's App Tracking Transparency authorization or access to the advertising identifier (IDFA). Non-personalized ads still involve data processing: Google's SDK may process IP addresses, device or app identifiers, advertising interactions, and diagnostic information for advertising, security and service operation. See Google's iOS SDK data disclosure and Google's privacy policy. Privacy choices and the absence of IDFA do not mean that advertising providers receive no information.
Providers involved in operating the app include Apple (distribution and purchases), GitHub and its CDN (content hosting), and Google (advertising and privacy messages). Our support mailbox also processes information you send by email.
These providers can process information outside your country, including in the United States. Consult their privacy policies for their processing, retention and international-transfer safeguards.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy of personal information, restrict or object to processing, and withdraw consent. To ask about information held by Scrolar, email scrolarapp@gmail.com.
We respond to requests according to applicable law and do not discriminate against users who exercise their rights. You can also contact your local data-protection authority; in Sweden this is IMY. Applicable US-state privacy choices are handled through the regional advertising privacy messages when required.
Scrolar is a general-audience educational app. If you are responsible for a child using the app, review the advertising privacy choices and this policy. Contact us if you believe a child's information has been handled improperly.
Scrolar does not send your local study record to advertising providers. The SDK and service interactions described above involve provider processing of technical and advertising information, subject to the relevant privacy choices and provider terms.
Local study data stays on your device until you clear it or delete the app. Support correspondence is kept as needed to handle the request and meet applicable obligations. Advertising and hosting providers determine retention of the information they process under their own policies. Deleting the app or clearing local study data does not erase their records.
On-device data is protected by iOS. Content is fetched over encrypted HTTPS connections.
If we update this policy, we'll revise the date above and note material changes in the app or its App Store release notes.
