Privacy Policy
Last updated: [DATE] (draft prepared 15 October 2026) · Placeholders in brackets must be replaced by the founder before production. VERIFY BEFORE PRODUCTION: have this reviewed by a lawyer familiar with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173) and app-store policies.
TerraSync Software Development Services (“we”), a business registered with the Department of Trade and Industry in Monkayo, Davao de Oro, Philippines, operates AgriNexa, an agricultural learning app, and is the personal information controller for the data described here. This policy describes what this version of the app actually does, on the web, in the Android app and in the Windows app. It is written to follow the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations.
1. Information we collect
- Learning and progress data – answers, scores, flashcard schedules and ratings, mistakes, practice-test results, lessons opened, study time and streaks.
- Profile details you choose to give – display name, learner level, school, graduation year, target date, study goal and subjects of interest. All optional.
- Things you create – your own flashcards (including any photos you add to them), the words you highlight in lessons and the notes you write, and lab scenes or models you save. Highlights and notes are saved with your progress (and synced with it when account sync is on). Photos and lab files stay on your device; they are not synced.
- A random device code – a short random code (not your phone’s ID) used only to merge progress correctly when more than one device syncs.
- Error notes – short error messages kept on your device for the app to recover. They are not sent to us.
- Authentication information – this version has no AgriNexa accounts and no AgriNexa passwords. If Google, Apple or email sign-in is added later, this policy will be updated first.
2. What we do not collect
No location, contacts, camera or microphone access, advertising identifiers, payment details, or sensitive personal information (such as health, religion or government ID numbers). No analytics, advertising or tracking tools are included.
3. Why we use it
Only to provide the study features you use: personalised practice, spaced-repetition review, progress tracking and, when you choose, syncing across your devices. We rely on your consent and on the processing being necessary to provide the service you asked for (RA 10173, Sec. 12). [LEGAL REVIEW: confirm lawful basis wording] Readiness estimates and study suggestions are study aids only; no decision with legal or similar effect is made about you.
4. AI features
AI features are switched off in this version. No questions, study notes or study data are sent to any AI service. If AI features are switched on in a later version, this section will say exactly what is sent and to whom before it happens.
5. Where your data is stored and who can see it
- On your device – always: browser storage (web) or the app’s private storage (Android and Windows). Anyone with access to your unlocked device or browser profile could see it; the app does not add its own encryption. The Android and Windows apps also keep one backup copy of your progress so an update or reinstall doesn’t lose it: on Android in the app’s own settings storage and in the file Documents › AgriNexa › agrinexa-progress-backup.json on the phone (this file stays if you uninstall the app; any app allowed to read your files could read it), on Windows in the file Documents\AgriNexa\agrinexa-progress-backup.json, which stays after uninstalling until you delete it. Delete my data empties that copy too.
- Your account record (web only, optional) – when you use AgriNexa on the web while signed in, your progress is also saved to a private record tied to your web account so it syncs between devices. That record is stored by the web hosting provider, may be stored outside the Philippines, and is readable only by your signed-in account under the platform’s access rules. You can turn this off at any time (Settings → Privacy choices).
- Sharing – we do not sell, rent or share your data for advertising. We disclose it only if required by law.
- Other services – Google Fonts and the cdnjs / jsDelivr networks (typefaces and the 3D graphics library) receive your IP address when those files load. The web hosting platform applies its own privacy policy to your use of it.
6. Security
What this version does: no secret keys are stored in the app; synced records are kept per user under the hosting platform’s access controls; text you enter is cleaned and shown as plain text; network traffic uses HTTPS. What it cannot do: protect data on a device someone else can unlock. No method is 100% secure. If a personal data breach occurs, we will follow the notification rules of RA 10173 and the National Privacy Commission. [LEGAL REVIEW: breach-response procedure and DPO registration]
7. Retention
Your data is kept until you delete it. Delete my data removes it from this device (including flashcard photos and saved lab scenes) and deletes your synced record. Remove my synced copy deletes only the synced record. AgriNexa keeps no server logs of its own. [RETENTION PERIOD FOR BACKUPS / LOGS, if a backend is added]
8. Your rights
Under the Data Privacy Act you have the right to be informed, to access your data, to object, to have it corrected, to have it erased or blocked, to data portability, to claim damages, and to file a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (privacy.gov.ph). In the app you can:
- See and correct your profile – Settings → Profile.
- Get a copy of everything the app holds about you – Settings → Export my data (a .json file you can keep or move).
- Stop syncing or remove the synced copy – Settings → Privacy choices.
- Erase everything – Delete my data.
For any other request, or a question about this policy, email [PRIVACY EMAIL] (Data Protection Officer: [DPO NAME]). Settings → Privacy choices has a request template you can copy. We will reply within [RESPONSE TIME, e.g. 15 working days – LEGAL REVIEW].
9. Cookies, analytics and tracking
AgriNexa sets no cookies of its own and uses no analytics, advertising or tracking. It uses browser storage (localStorage and IndexedDB) only to save your progress, settings and the items you create. The hosting platform may use its own cookies under its own policy.
10. Children’s privacy
AgriNexa is meant for senior high school students and older. If a learner is under 18, a parent or guardian should review this policy. We do not knowingly collect more than the optional profile details above from minors. [CONFIRM MINIMUM AGE AND PARENTAL-CONSENT APPROACH]
11. Changes
We will update the “Last updated” date and, for material changes, tell you in the app before they take effect.
Paid plans and advertising
Current status: Premium is not on sale and AgriNexa shows no advertising. Nothing below is active yet; we will update this policy and tell you in the app before either starts.
- Payments (planned): handled by PayMongo Philippines on its own secure page. AgriNexa would receive only what is needed to confirm your plan – an order number, the amount, the payment status and the date – and never your card number, CVV or e-wallet PIN.
- Subscription records (planned): your user ID, plan, status, start and end dates, promotion used and the payment reference, kept while you have an account and as long as tax and accounting rules require.
- Advertising (planned, Free accounts only): any ad network would be named here before use. Ads would never be shown inside lessons, tests, 3D models, sign-in or payment screens, and your study records, answers, tutor conversations and precise location would never be shared with advertisers. Where consent is required, ads would be shown only after you agree.
- Sponsored Premium: if a school or organisation sponsors your Premium, we keep your user ID, the end date and a short note; no study data is shared with the sponsor unless you agree.
