In the following provisions, we inform you comprehensively about the processing of your personal data when using our Products and related services.
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Products” means all mobile applications, desktop applications, web applications, browser-based tools, software products, utilities, platforms, website features, APIs, downloadable resources, digital products, and related services made available by Unlock Futurix Ltd.

and any other application, software product, or digital service that Unlock Futurix Ltd publishes now or in the future, unless a separate privacy policy is expressly provided for a specific Product.
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, identification number, location data, online identifier, or other characteristics specific to that person’s identity.

United Kingdom
Email: support@unlockfuturix.com
The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.
1.3 Security and Encryption
For reasons of security and in order to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential content, including inquiries to the controller, our Products use encryption technologies and industry-standard security measures where data is transmitted, including technologies such as TLS and HTTPS where applicable.
In addition, we implement appropriate technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or unauthorised access.
2) Contact
When contacting us, for example via email, contact forms on our website, embedded Tally forms, or the Tawk.to live chat widget, personal data will be collected. Which data is collected depends on the information you provide in your communication.
This data may include:
your name
your email address
the content of your message
attachments or any additional information voluntarily provided by you
This data is stored and used exclusively for the purpose of answering your request, contacting you, and the associated technical and administrative processing.
Where you contact us via our embedded Tally form or via the Tawk.to live chat widget, we may collect your name, email address, and the content of your message solely for the purpose of following up on your support inquiry. Such information is never used for advertising, profiling, or unrelated marketing purposes.
The legal basis for the processing of this data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR. If your contact is aimed at concluding or performing a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) UK GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once your request has been fully answered, provided that no statutory retention obligations apply and provided that no legitimate continuing need for the data remains.
3) Categories of Data We Process

Where a Product does not require account creation, we do not collect or store account data such as:
names
email addresses
passwords
user profiles
unless such information is voluntarily provided by you, for example when contacting support.
3.2 Data Stored Locally on Your Device
Some Products allow you to create, enter, import, store, organise, or manage user content and application data locally on your device.
Depending on the Product, this may include:
text

code snippets
subscription entries

other user-generated content
Where applicable, such data is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to us unless you explicitly share it with us, for example for support purposes.
3.3 Product-Specific Local Data Examples
Certain Products are designed with a privacy-first architecture and process most or all user content locally on the device.
For example:
Subio may store subscription-related information locally on your device, including subscription names, prices, billing cycles, renewal dates, notes, and categories.

The processing of your personal data takes place on the basis of the following legal grounds in accordance with Article 6 UK GDPR:
Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR if you have given your consent to the processing of your personal data for one or more specific purposes.
Article 6(1)(b) UK GDPR if processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract.
Article 6(1)(c) UK GDPR if processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject.
Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party, provided that such interests are not overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection of personal data.
Where a particular section of this Privacy Policy identifies a more specific legal basis, that more specific explanation applies in addition to this general section.
5) Retention and Deletion of Data
Unless otherwise specified in this Privacy Policy, we retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes stated herein or as required by statutory retention obligations.
In particular:
locally stored Product data remains on your device until deleted by you
iCloud-synced data remains subject to your Apple environment and your own deletion actions, unless otherwise governed by Apple’s systems
crash reporting and analytics data are retained according to the retention settings and lawful practices of the relevant provider
support communications are retained only as long as necessary to answer, resolve, and document your request, unless statutory retention obligations or legitimate legal requirements apply
purchase and subscription-related information may be retained as long as necessary to administer contractual rights, handle disputes, comply with legal obligations, and maintain proper business records
Once the purpose no longer applies or the statutory retention period has expired, the personal data will be deleted, anonymised, or otherwise handled in accordance with legal requirements.
6) Your Rights as a Data Subject
The applicable data protection law grants you comprehensive rights with regard to the processing of your personal data. These rights include:
Right of access (Article 15 UK GDPR)
You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed and, if so, access to the personal data and detailed information about its processing.
Right to rectification (Article 16 UK GDPR)
You have the right to obtain immediate rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you and completion of incomplete personal data.
Right to erasure (Article 17 UK GDPR)
You have the right to request deletion of your personal data if the conditions in Article 17 are met. This does not apply if processing is necessary for exercising freedom of expression and information, compliance with a legal obligation, reasons of public interest, or the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 UK GDPR)
You have the right to request the restriction of processing under the conditions set out in Article 18.
Right to be informed (Article 19 UK GDPR)
If you have exercised your rights of rectification, erasure, or restriction, we are obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data has been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
Right to data portability (Article 20 UK GDPR)
You have the right to receive the personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit this data to another controller where technically feasible.
Right to object (Article 21 UK GDPR)
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of your personal data based on Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR. If your personal data is processed for direct marketing, you also have the right to object at any time to processing for such marketing.
Right to withdraw consent (Article 7(3) UK GDPR)
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to the withdrawal.
Right to lodge a complaint (Article 77 UK GDPR)
Without prejudice to other remedies, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the United Kingdom with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), if you consider that the processing of your personal data infringes the UK GDPR.
Because many of our Products do not maintain user accounts or centralised personal profiles, we may not always be able to identify you in our systems unless you contact us directly and provide sufficient information to help us locate any relevant data.
7) Transfers to Third Countries
If personal data is transferred to a country outside the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, such transfer will only take place where the conditions of Articles 44 to 49 UK GDPR are fulfilled.
This may apply, for example, where service providers such as Google, RevenueCat, Adapty, Sentry, Amplitude, OneSignal, Tally, Tawk.to, or Microsoft process data outside the United Kingdom or EEA.
Where such transfers occur, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as:
Standard Contractual Clauses
adequacy regulations where applicable
other lawful transfer mechanisms recognised under applicable data protection law
8) Automated Decision-Making
We do not use automated decision-making, including profiling, within the meaning of Article 22 UK GDPR.
9) Children’s Privacy
Our Products are not intended to knowingly collect personal data from children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect such personal data. If we become aware that personal data from a child under 13 has been collected inadvertently, we will delete the information without undue delay, subject to applicable legal requirements.
Parents or guardians who believe that a child has provided personal data to us may contact us using the details provided below.
10) Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time to ensure that it always complies with current legal requirements or to reflect changes to our Products, services, processing activities, or technical integrations.
The amended Privacy Policy will apply upon your next use of the relevant Product, unless a different notice requirement applies by law.
Where appropriate, the updated version will be published with a revised “Last updated” date.
