Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 03, 2025

Introduction

Coin Odyssey ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how your personal information is collected, used, and disclosed when you use our desktop application ("Coin Odyssey" or the "Application").

By using Coin Odyssey, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Information Collection and Use

Coin Odyssey is a desktop application designed to run locally on your device. Our primary design philosophy is to keep your data on your machine and under your control.

Local Data Storage

All your collection data, including:

  • Coin details (name, year, country, condition, etc.)
  • Coin images you upload
  • Collection organization details
  • Any personal notes or valuation information

These are stored locally on your device in a database file. This data never leaves your computer unless you explicitly choose to export or backup your data.

Application Usage Data

We collect minimal usage data to help improve the application experience, such as:

  • Application performance metrics
  • Feature usage patterns
  • Error reports (if you opt-in to sharing these)

This information is anonymized and does not include any personal identification or collection details.

Third-Party Services

Coin Odyssey operates as a standalone desktop application and does not integrate with third-party services for routine operations.

Automatic Updates

The application may check for updates from our servers. This involves only checking version numbers and does not transmit any user data.

Data Security

We take the security of your data seriously:

  • Your collection database is stored locally with appropriate file system permissions
  • Any temporary files created are properly managed and disposed of
  • We do not have access to your collection data

For optimal security, we recommend regularly backing up your collection data to a secure location.

Your Rights

Since your data remains on your local device, you maintain complete control over it. You can:

  • Access all data through the application interface
  • Export your data in various formats
  • Delete or modify any information
  • Uninstall the application at any time, which will not affect your data files unless you choose to delete them

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.

You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
