Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 3, 2026
Chaticon ("we," "our," or "us") is operated by Alfi AI Yazilim Bilgi Teknolojileri Reklamcilik Danismanlik Sanayi ve Ticaret Anonim Sirketi ("Alfi AI"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use the Chaticon mobile application (the "App").
By using Chaticon, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Account Information
When you sign in with Apple, we receive:
- Your email address (or an Apple-generated relay address if you choose to hide your email)
- Your display name (optional, only if provided by Apple)
- A unique user identifier for authentication purposes
We do not receive or store your Apple ID password.
1.2 Conversation Data
We store your chat messages and conversation history in our cloud database (Google Firebase Firestore) to enable features such as conversation history and cross-device access. Messages are associated with your user account.
1.3 Subscription Information
If you subscribe to Chaticon Premium, subscription status and expiry information is processed by RevenueCat (our subscription management provider) and Apple's App Store. We store your subscription status to provide access to premium features. We do not have access to your payment details (credit card, billing address) — these are handled entirely by Apple.
1.4 Usage & Analytics Data
We collect anonymized usage data to improve the App, including:
- App launch and session events
- Feature usage (e.g., model selection, paywall views)
- Device type and operating system version
This data is collected through Firebase Analytics and Facebook SDK (Meta App Events). If you grant tracking permission (via Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt), we may collect your Advertising Identifier (IDFA) for ad measurement purposes.
1.5 Crash Reports
We use Firebase Crashlytics to collect crash reports and diagnostic data. This helps us identify and fix bugs. Crash data does not contain personally identifiable information.
2. How We Use Your Information
- Provide the Service: Deliver AI-powered chat responses, manage your account, and sync conversation history
- Process Subscriptions: Verify premium status and manage entitlements
- Improve the App: Analyze usage patterns, fix bugs, and develop new features
- Communicate: Send service-related notifications (e.g., subscription changes)
3. Third-Party Services
Chaticon uses the following third-party services that may collect and process data:
- OpenRouter / OpenAI / Anthropic / Google: Your chat messages are sent to third-party AI model providers to generate responses. These providers may process your messages according to their own privacy policies. We do not send your personal account information to these providers — only the message content.
- Firebase (Google): Authentication, database (Firestore), analytics, crashlytics, and remote configuration. Firebase Privacy Policy
- RevenueCat: Subscription and in-app purchase management. RevenueCat Privacy Policy
- Meta (Facebook SDK): App event tracking and ad measurement. Meta Privacy Policy
- Apple: Sign in with Apple, App Store purchase processing, and StoreKit. Apple Privacy Policy
4. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer
Chaticon acts as an interface to third-party AI models. We do not generate, control, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or appropriateness of AI-generated responses. AI models may produce incorrect, misleading, biased, or inappropriate content.
- We are not responsible for the content of AI-generated responses
- AI responses should not be relied upon as professional advice (medical, legal, financial, or otherwise)
- Users are solely responsible for how they use or act upon AI-generated content
- We are not responsible for content that users input into the App
5. Data Storage & Security
Your data is stored in Google Firebase servers located in the United States. We implement industry-standard security measures including:
- Encrypted data transmission (TLS/SSL)
- Firebase Authentication with secure token management
- Access controls on database operations
While we take reasonable measures to protect your data, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Data Retention
- Account Data: Retained as long as your account is active
- Conversation History: Retained as long as your account is active. You can delete individual conversations within the App.
- Analytics Data: Retained according to Firebase and Meta's data retention policies (typically up to 14 months)
When you delete your account through the App, all associated data (account information, conversations, messages) is permanently deleted from our database.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
- Access: Request a copy of the data we hold about you
- Deletion: Delete your account and all associated data directly from the App (Settings → Delete Account)
- Correction: Update your account information
- Opt-out of Tracking: Deny the App Tracking Transparency prompt, or revoke tracking permission in iOS Settings
- Data Portability: Request your data in a portable format

Chaticon is not intended for children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
9. International Data Transfers
Your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate. By using the App, you consent to such transfers. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place through our service providers' data protection commitments.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you through the App or by other means. Your continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
