California Privacy Rights
California residents may have additional rights regarding their personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Since our app collects minimal information that is primarily for app functionality and is stored locally on your device, most CCPA provisions may not apply. However, if you are a California resident and have questions about your rights, please contact us.
