Crewzy Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 26, 2026
Effective Date: October 26, 2026
Crewzy, listed on Google Play as Crewzy: Friends Photo Widget, is operated by Gigasonet ("we", "us", or "our"). This policy explains what the Crewzy Android app collects, why we collect it, who processes it for us and the choices you have.
Privacy, support and deletion contact: contact@gigasonet.com
1. Information you give us
- Account details: your email address (from Google sign in or email sign up), your name, username and optional profile photo.
- Birth year: used only to confirm you are 13 or older and to keep ads age appropriate. It is never shown to anyone.
- Content you share: photos, short videos, captions, doodles, stickers, music links, reactions and chat messages. They are delivered only to the friends you choose.
- Friends: friend requests, accepted friends, circles you create, people you block and reports you send.
2. Information collected automatically
- Notification data: a Firebase Cloud Messaging token so new pics and messages can reach your phone and widget.
- Diagnostics and usage: crash reports (Firebase Crashlytics) and basic app events (Google Analytics for Firebase) to find bugs and improve the app.
- App integrity: Firebase App Check with Google Play Integrity checks that requests come from the genuine app, to stop abuse.
- Advertising data: in the free version, Google AdMob may collect your device's advertising ID, IP address and ad interaction data to show, limit and measure ads. See section 4.
3. Permissions
- Camera and microphone: only to take pics and record short videos inside the app.
- Notifications: to tell you when friends send pics or messages. You can turn them off in Settings.
- Approximate location (optional): only if you choose the weather or city caption style. The app reads your coarse location once on your phone to look up the weather (Open-Meteo, with rounded coordinates) or the city name. We do not store your location.
- Photos: Crewzy uses the Android photo picker, so it only sees the items you pick. Pics are re-encoded on your phone before upload, which removes hidden metadata such as GPS tags.
We do not collect your contacts, precise location or browsing history.
4. Ads and your consent
The free version shows a limited number of ads from Google AdMob, such as an occasional full screen ad after sending pics or an ad card in your lists. Ads never appear inside your friends' pics or on the home screen widget. Crewzy Plus removes ads.
In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and other places where the law requires it, we use Google's consent tool to ask whether ads may be personalised before any ad loads. You can change your choice at any time in Settings, Privacy and ad choices. For users under 16, and wherever you say no, ads are not personalised. Ads for users under 18 are limited to family friendly content ratings. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your Android settings.
5. Crewzy Plus purchases
Crewzy Plus is sold through Google Play. Google processes your payment; we never receive your card details. We use RevenueCat to confirm your subscription status. RevenueCat receives your Crewzy account ID and purchase details from Google Play, not your photos or messages.
6. How we use information
- To run Crewzy: deliver pics to your friends' widgets, show history, chats, reactions and streaks.
- To keep people safe: review reports, enforce our Community Guidelines, prevent spam and abuse (including rate limits) and meet legal duties.
- To show and limit ads in the free version, and to provide Crewzy Plus.
- To fix crashes and improve performance.
We do not sell your personal information.
7. Who processes information for us
- Google Firebase: sign in, database, push notifications, crash reports, analytics and App Check.
- Cloudflare: stores and delivers photos and videos (R2 and Workers).
- Google AdMob and the Google User Messaging Platform: ads and consent in the free version.
- Google Play and RevenueCat: Crewzy Plus purchases and subscription status.
- Open-Meteo: weather for the optional weather caption, using rounded coordinates only.
These providers may process data in countries other than yours, including the United States, under their own safeguards.
8. Security
All data is encrypted in transit. Security rules let only you and the friends you choose read your pics, and media links are long random addresses that are only given to those friends. We use rate limits and App Check to block automated abuse. No system is perfectly secure, so please keep your account details private.
9. How long we keep information
Your content stays until you unsend it, delete it or delete your account. When you delete your account, we delete your profile, pics, videos, reactions, friendships, circles and the messages you sent, normally right away and always within 30 days. Crash reports are kept by Firebase for up to 90 days. Purchase records are kept by Google Play and RevenueCat where the law requires it.
10. Your choices and rights
- Unsend any pic within 24 hours. Block or report anyone from the app.
- Turn off notifications, the Seen by feature and friend requests in Settings.
- Change your ad consent in Settings, Privacy and ad choices.
- Delete your account in the app (Settings, then Delete account) or on our account deletion page.
- Ask for a copy of your data, or for it to be corrected, by emailing contact@gigasonet.com. Depending on where you live, for example the EU, UK, California or India, you may have more rights, and you can complain to your local data protection authority.
11. Children
Crewzy is for people aged 13 and over. We block sign ups from people who tell us they are younger than 13 and delete accounts we learn belong to someone under 13. See our Child Safety Standards.
12. Changes to this policy
We will update this page and the date above if this policy changes, and tell you in the app if the changes are significant.
