Developer Information

This app is developed and operated by Xiamen AngryWind Network Technology Co., Ltd. We are the personal information processor responsible for privacy matters in Growly.

  • App name: Growly

1. Information Collection

We collect information you provide when using Growly's services, including but not limited to:

  • Registration information: username, email address, phone number
  • Profile information: avatar, display name, age, and other basic details
  • Usage data: app activity records, learning progress, interaction data
  • Device information: device model, operating system, app version, and other technical details
  • Device sensor information (Android only): when you actively use camera features such as QR-code scanning or taking a photo, the app may read the device's supported sensor list and briefly process accelerometer data to determine device orientation and display the camera preview correctly. This information is processed locally on the device only while the feature is in use. It is not used for identity recognition or advertising profiles and is not separately stored or uploaded to our servers.

2. Use of Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide and improve our services
  • Personalize your user experience
  • Send important notifications and updates
  • Analyze usage trends to optimize product features
  • Ensure platform security and prevent fraudulent activity

3. Information Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or transfer your personal information to third parties, except:

  • With your explicit consent
  • When required by applicable law or regulation
  • To protect our rights, property, or safety
  • With trusted third-party service providers who have agreed to keep your information confidential

4. Third-Party Services, SDKs, and Data Processors

Growly's application framework, camera and QR scanning, AI assistant, voice transcription, and image/video understanding features rely on the following third-party services or open-source SDKs. Data is processed only when you actively invoke the corresponding feature:

  • React Native / Expo Camera (open-source framework and camera component) — used to build the app interface and provide camera capture and QR-code scanning. On Android, after you actively open a camera or scanning feature and grant camera permission, the component may locally read the sensor list and briefly process accelerometer data to determine device orientation and display the camera preview correctly. It is not used for identity recognition or advertising profiles, is not separately stored, and is not uploaded to a third-party server by this component.
  • Alibaba Cloud DashScope (Qwen / Tongyi Qianwen model family) — used for text conversations and image/video understanding. Data sent: text messages you type in the AI assistant, and photos or videos you explicitly attach to the conversation.
  • DeepSeek — used for text reasoning and summarization. Data sent: text messages you type in the AI assistant.
  • Volcengine ASR (Bytedance) — used for speech-to-text. Data sent: voice clips recorded only after you explicitly tap the record button.
  • All listed providers process your data under their own privacy agreements and do not retain that content beyond the immediate response.
  • Before you can use Growly for the first time, the sign-up / sign-in screen requires you to tick a checkbox agreeing to our Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy. That action constitutes your explicit consent to the third-party AI data processing described above.
  • We do not separately submit your child's name, family relationships, precise location, or device identifiers to these third-party AI services unless that information is already part of a conversation message you have chosen to send.

5. Data Security

We employ industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information:

  • Encrypted data transmission and storage
  • Access controls and authentication
  • Regular security audits and vulnerability scanning
  • Employee privacy training and confidentiality agreements

6. Your Rights

You have the following rights with respect to your personal information:

  • Access and review your personal information
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Delete your personal information (to the extent permitted by law)
  • Restrict or object to certain data processing activities
  • Data portability

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance user experience, analyze usage, and deliver personalized content. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings.

8. Children's Privacy

We take children's privacy seriously. For children under the age of 13, we require parental or guardian consent before they may use our services, and we apply additional protective measures.
