1. Introduction

Welcome to TindaMate.

TindaMate is a mobile Point-of-Sale (POS) application developed by Justin Villocido under the Vebatech brand. It is designed to help small businesses, retailers, and service providers record sales, manage products and services, monitor transactions, and organize their business operations.

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information TindaMate handles, how it is used, where it is stored, and the measures taken to protect it.

By using TindaMate, you acknowledge the data practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect and Process

TindaMate does not require users to register, create an account, or provide personal information to use its basic features.

However, the application processes certain information as part of its functionality.

2.1 Business Information

TindaMate allows users to enter and manage business-related information, including:

• Product and service names, descriptions, and prices.
• Sales transactions and payment records.
• Inventory information, where supported.
• Customer credit transactions and outstanding balances.
• Business reports and transaction history.

This information is stored locally on the user’s device.

TindaMate does not automatically upload business records to Vebatech servers.

2.2 Customer Information

Certain features, such as promissory notes and customer receivables, may allow users to record customer information, including:

• Customer names.
• Contact information, if provided.
• Credit transaction details.
• Photographs associated with individual promissory notes.

This information is entered by the business operator and stored locally within the application.

Customer photographs are maintained in the application’s private storage rather than being automatically saved to the device’s public photo gallery.

TindaMate does not automatically transmit this information to Vebatech servers.

Business operators are responsible for obtaining any consent or providing any notices required by applicable privacy laws when recording customer information.

2.3 Google Play Purchases

TindaMate offers an optional PRO upgrade through Google Play Billing.

When a user purchases or restores TindaMate PRO, the application may transmit the following information to our licensing server:

• Google Play purchase token.
• Purchased product identifier.

This information is used to:

• Verify purchases with Google Play.
• Activate PRO functionality.
• Maintain and restore purchased licenses.
• Prevent fraudulent or unauthorized license activation.
• Determine whether a purchase has been refunded or revoked.

Purchase information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to maintain license records, support purchase restoration, resolve disputes, and comply with applicable legal obligations.

Payments are processed by Google Play. TindaMate does not directly collect or store payment card numbers or banking credentials.

Google’s handling of payment information is governed by its own privacy policies.

3. How We Use Information

Information processed by TindaMate is used to:

1. Provide point-of-sale and business management functionality.
2. Record and display transactions and reports.
3. Manage products, services, inventory, and customer receivables.
4. Verify and maintain PRO licenses.
5. Restore previously purchased PRO functionality.
6. Protect the licensing system against unauthorized use.
7. Comply with applicable legal obligations.

We do not use locally stored business records for advertising or marketing.

We do not sell users’ personal information.

4. Data Storage

4.1 Local Storage

TindaMate is designed to operate primarily offline.

Business records, transaction histories, customer information, and photographs are stored locally on the user’s Android device.

Users are responsible for protecting access to their devices and maintaining appropriate backups of important business information.

Uninstalling the application or clearing its application data may permanently delete locally stored records.

4.2 Server Storage

Information associated with Google Play purchase verification may be stored on servers used by the developer to manage PRO entitlements.

These servers are used for license management and are not intended to store users’ product catalogs, sales records, or customer photographs.

5. Data Sharing

TindaMate does not sell personal information to third parties.

Limited information may be processed by third-party service providers when necessary to operate the application.

These may include:

Google Play

Google Play processes in-app purchases and provides purchase verification services.

Cloud Infrastructure Providers

Cloud infrastructure may be used to host the licensing backend and securely maintain purchase verification records.

Information is shared only as necessary to provide these services, subject to applicable contractual and legal requirements.

We may also disclose information when required by applicable law or a valid legal process.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information handled by TindaMate.

These measures include:

• Using private application storage for locally maintained records.
• Using encrypted HTTPS connections for communications with licensing services.
• Verifying PRO purchases through Google Play.
• Restricting access to licensing infrastructure.
• Avoiding unnecessary transmission of business and customer records.

However, no electronic storage or transmission system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users should protect their devices using appropriate security measures.

7. Offline Functionality

TindaMate is designed to support core business operations without an active internet connection.

Users can record sales and access locally stored business information while offline.

Certain operations require internet access, including:

• Purchasing TindaMate PRO.
• Initial PRO license verification and activation.
• Online license reconciliation when applicable.

Previously activated PRO features may remain available offline, subject to the application’s license validation mechanisms.

8. Data Retention and Deletion

8.1 Locally Stored Information

Users can remove locally stored application information by using available deletion functions within TindaMate or clearing the application’s storage through Android settings.

Uninstalling the application generally removes its private local data, subject to any applicable device backup or restoration mechanisms.

8.2 Purchase and License Records

Purchase verification information may be retained while necessary to maintain purchased entitlements, verify transaction status, prevent fraud, and meet legal obligations.

8.3 Data Deletion Requests

Users may contact the developer to request information about personal data maintained on the licensing server or to request its deletion, where applicable.

Requests will be reviewed and handled in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

Certain transaction records may need to be retained where required for legal, accounting, fraud prevention, or purchase verification purposes.

Because TindaMate does not require user accounts, additional information may be needed to identify the relevant purchase record and verify that the requester is authorized to make the request.

9. Children’s Privacy

TindaMate is intended for business owners, retailers, and service providers aged 18 years and older.

The application is not designed for children and does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

If we become aware that personal information has been collected from a child in violation of applicable law, we will take appropriate steps to address the situation.

10. Third-Party Services

TindaMate uses or may interact with third-party services necessary for its operation.

These include:

• Google Play Billing for in-app purchases.
• Google Play services associated with application distribution and licensing.
• Cloud infrastructure supporting purchase verification.

Third-party services may process information according to their own privacy policies.

Users are encouraged to review the privacy policies of those services.

11. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on applicable law, users may have rights to:

• Request information about personal data processed by the developer.
• Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
• Request deletion of personal information, subject to lawful exceptions.
• Object to certain processing activities.
• Raise concerns regarding the handling of personal information.

Requests may be submitted using the contact information below.

We will respond in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in TindaMate’s functionality, data handling practices, legal requirements, or supporting services.

Any updates will be published on the official TindaMate website with a revised effective date.

Continued use of the application after changes take effect is subject to applicable law.
