Smoketally.com's Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 16, 2026

This Privacy Policy governs the manner in which SmokeTally (“we,” “our,” or “us”) accesses, collects, uses, maintains, retains, and discloses information collected from users of our digital properties. This policy explicitly applies to SmokeTally.com web architecture, the downloadable ledgers, the Smoke Loop Intercept mobile application, our automated communication funnels, and any future software interfaces or mobile applications deployed under the SmokeTally ecosystem.

1. Information We Access, Collect, and Process

We collect only the essential data required to deliver, secure, personalize, and improve our mechanical tracking frameworks and software products. This includes:

Voluntary Personal Information: Names and email addresses submitted when subscribing to our hubs, downloading baseline audit ledgers, or creating an account within our applications.
Habit and Behavioral Profiling Data: To generate personalized operational plans, calculate thermodynamic metrics, and adapt our reduction algorithms (such as printable smoke ledgers within Smoke Loop Intercept, etc.), we collect specific demographic and habit-related data during onboarding.
Mandatory Fields: To ensure our core algorithms function, users may be required to input operational metrics such as years of smoking, daily consumption counts, average sleep hours (to calculate biological recovery windows), and localized currency parameters.
Optional Fields: Age and Sex/Gender are completely voluntary. Users may leave these fields blank or select “Don't Tell” without restricting access to our systems.
Data Protection: This profiling data is kept strictly confidential and is used solely to calibrate your personal biological recovery architecture within the application or ledger ecosystem.

Transactional and Financial Data: We do not process or store raw credit card numbers. We handle purchases, subscriptions, and financial transactions exclusively through secure, platform-integrated payment systems (such as Google Play Billing and Amazon Appstore services) or other encrypted, industry-standard third-party payment gateways. We receive only generalized purchase history and encrypted confirmation tokens required for account provisioning.
Technical and Device Data: Standard tracking parameters, including IP addresses, mobile device IDs, operating system versions, crash logs, and usage analytics. We collect this data through systems like Google Analytics (GA4) to ensure application stability, troubleshoot errors, and optimize cross-platform performance.

2. How We Use Your Data

We process your data under the legal bases of fulfilling our contract with you, your explicit consent, and our legitimate business interests. We use your data to:

Personalize System Functionality: Calculate biological benchmarks, pacing gaps, and adaptive reduction caps based specifically on your behavioral history.
Account Management: Create, manage, and authenticate your software access keys across web and mobile environments.
Communication: Deliver automated educational updates, architectural blueprint emails, and relevant systems updates using only your voluntary contact information.
Strict Behavioral Data Isolation: Your habit and behavioral profiling data is strictly isolated and is never used for advertising profiling.
No Data Selling: We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal data, health/behavioral metrics, or email profile to third-party data brokers.

3. Data Retention and Deletion Policy

We enforce strict data retention practices to ensure your information is not held longer than necessary:

Retention Period: We retain your personal and behavioral data only for as long as your account is active, or as strictly necessary to fulfill the operational purposes outlined in this policy. Technical logs and analytics data are routinely purged and retained for no longer than 14 months.
Account and Data Deletion: You have the explicit right to request the complete deletion of your account and all associated personal and behavioral data at any time.
How to Request Deletion: To initiate full data erasure, please utilize the Contact Us page on our website or email our support infrastructure directly with the subject line “Data Deletion Request.” Upon verification, your account and associated personal data will be permanently deleted from our active databases within 30 days.
Legal Exceptions: We may retain specific transactional records for a longer period strictly if mandated by tax laws, accounting regulations, or formal legal obligations.

4. Data Security and Encryption

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal and behavioral data. All data transmitted between your device and our servers (including your onboarding profile, smoking history, and usage metrics) is encrypted in transit using secure cryptographic protocols (HTTPS/TLS). Access to your data is strictly limited to authorized personnel and systems required to operate the infrastructure.

5. App-Specific Data Handling and Third-Party SDKs

Our web and mobile applications utilize third-party Software Development Kits (SDKs) and analytics services (including Google services) to monitor performance, track crash reports, and analyze usage trends. These third-party processors are bound by strict data processing agreements, are prohibited from using your data for independent purposes, and do not have access to your health and behavioral profiling data for their own secondary use.

6. Your Global Privacy Rights (GDPR, CCPA, and CPRA)

Depending on your jurisdiction of residence, you are entitled to specific global privacy rights:

Right to Access and Portability: You may request a summary or a digital copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Right to Rectification: You may request corrections to any inaccurate or incomplete data.
Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): You may request the deletion of your personal data as outlined in Section 3.

Right to Withdraw Consent / Opt-Out: You may opt out of our email communication at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link located at the bottom of our broadcasts.

7. Data Sharing and Legal Disclosures

We will only share your information with external parties under the following circumstances:

With verified service providers (e.g., secure email hosting, cloud infrastructure) required to operate our software.

If explicitly required to do so by law, a court order, or a formal legal subpoena during statutory regulatory audits.

8. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

No Professional/Medical Advice: Content within our applications, ledgers, and communications is for educational, systemic, and self-reflective purposes only. It does not constitute medical, psychological, psychiatric, legal, or formal financial advice. Operators must consult qualified professionals regarding any biological or psychological conditions.

Third-Party Platforms: We utilize external ecosystems for distribution and payment processing (including, but not limited to, Google Play, Amazon Appstore, and third-party web gateways). We do not control their independent privacy systems or data retention policies.

Limitation of Liability: To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total liability is strictly capped at the amount you actually paid for the digital product or service in question.
