The short version
Rateva has no accounts, no advertising and no tracking. Your currencies, amounts and rates stay on your device. To sell and manage Rateva Pro, the app uses Apple’s App Store and the Adapty subscription service, which receive a random app identifier and your purchase history, not your name or contact details.
What is stored on your device
The app keeps the following on your device only:
- the currencies you chose and their order;
- the amount you last entered;
- the most recent exchange rates, so the app works between updates;
- your own exchange rates and percentage adjustments, if you set any;
- your settings, such as appearance and whether you have seen the introduction;
- whether Rateva Pro is active.
Part of this is kept in storage shared between the app and its widgets on the same device, so the widgets can show your currencies. None of it is sent to me or to anyone else. The app does not use iCloud. Deleting the app removes this data.
Exchange rates
To show current rates, the app downloads public exchange-rate tables from two services:
- ExchangeRate-API (exchangerate-api.com) for currencies;
- Coinbase (api.coinbase.com) for cryptocurrencies.
These requests contain no information about you, your currencies or your amounts: the app downloads the whole table and does the conversion on your device. As with any internet request, these services see your IP address and standard technical details of the request. The widgets make the same requests.
Purchases and subscriptions
Rateva Pro is sold through Apple’s App Store. Apple processes the payment; I never see your name, payment details or Apple Account.
The app uses Adapty (adapty.io), a subscription management service, to show the Rateva Pro offer and to check whether your purchase is active. For this, Adapty receives:
- a random identifier created by the app on your device, which is not linked to your name, email or Apple Account;
- your purchase and subscription history for Rateva;
- basic device and app information (such as device model, system version, app version, language and region) and your IP address;
- when the Rateva Pro screen is shown.
This data is used only to provide purchases, restore them and understand which offers work. It is not used for advertising or to track you across other apps and websites. Adapty’s handling of data is described in its own privacy policy.
What is not collected
Rateva does not collect your name, email, contacts, location, photos or the amounts you convert. There are no analytics or advertising tools in the app, and the app does not ask to track you.
Your choices
You can delete the app at any time to remove all data stored on your device. To ask about or request deletion of purchase data held by Adapty, write to support@cassianvire.com; because the identifier is random, please include the date of purchase so I can find it.
Children
The app is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
