Privacy Policy

Visty is a business card scanning and contact management app built and operated by an independent developer. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use the app and related services.

By using Visty, you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please delete the app and stop using the service.

Information Collection and Use

We collect and process the following information to operate and improve Visty:

• Account and contact details (name, email) if you create an account or contact support.
• Business card content (card images and extracted fields) to digitize and organize your contacts. We collect this data when you capture a photo using your device camera or upload an image from your gallery.
• Usage and device data (app interactions, device model, OS version, crash logs, IP address) to maintain security, diagnose issues, and improve performance.
• Analytics to understand feature usage. Analytics is aggregated or pseudonymized where possible.

We use your information to provide the service, improve accuracy, troubleshoot, communicate with you, and comply with legal obligations. We do not sell personal data.

Legal Bases (where applicable)

We process data based on:

• Performance of a contract (to deliver the app features you request).
• Legitimate interests (to secure, maintain, and improve the app for business users).
• Consent (for optional analytics or marketing communications).

Third-Party Services

We use trusted providers for hosting, analytics, crash reporting, messaging, and AI services. These providers may process limited personal data on our behalf and under contractual confidentiality obligations. Current providers include:

• Firebase (analytics and crash reporting)
• Google Gemini (AI data extraction) - We send only the extracted text from business cards to Google Gemini to automatically structure and organize contact information. We do not send the business card images themselves to Google Gemini. This data is only sent with your explicit permission when you choose to scan a card.

If we add or change providers, we will update this page and only use services that align with this policy.

Data Storage, Security, and Retention

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures (encryption in transit, access controls, least-privilege access) to protect data. No method is 100% secure, but we continually improve safeguards for business use.

We retain personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service, resolve disputes, and meet legal requirements. Aggregated or anonymized data may be retained longer for analytics.

International Transfers

Data may be processed in countries where our hosting and service providers operate. We use reasonable safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses where applicable) to protect your information.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, download, or delete your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. Submit requests via the contact email below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

Business Use and Team Data

Visty is designed for professional use. If you use Visty for your company, you confirm you have authority to provide business card data and that you will comply with your own company policies and applicable data protection laws.

Children's Privacy

Visty is not intended for children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact us to remove it.
