This privacy policy explains how PocketSubs (referred to as "we" or "the app") handles your personal information. We are committed to protecting your privacy rights and strictly comply with relevant privacy laws and regulations.
1. Local-First Privacy Protection Philosophy
PocketSubs adopts a "local-first" design philosophy, which means:
- Local data storage: All subscription information, payment history, personal settings, and other data are stored in your device's local storage
- No cloud transmission: Your sensitive data is not uploaded, transmitted, or stored on any remote servers
- Complete autonomous control: You have complete control and ownership of your data
- Offline functionality: The app's core features work normally without network connection
2. Data Collection and Processing

Local storage data (never leaves your device):
- Subscription service information (name, cost, renewal cycle, etc.)
