Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to MxGladyx ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile or web application.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly, including:

• Name, email address, and username
• City, state, and general location
• Profile photo (optional)
• Organization you choose to support
• Transaction and purchase history, including uploaded receipt images
• Event check-in activity
• Referral data (your referral code and members you've referred)
• Daily check-in streak history
• Favorite businesses and reward redemption history

3. Device Permissions

MxGladyx requests only the device permissions it needs to deliver its loyalty rewards features. Each permission is listed below with the specific reason it is requested and a concrete example of how the data is used:

• Camera (required for check-in and receipts): The camera lets you take a single photo at the moment you need it. For example, when a business scans you in, you point the camera at the member's QR code to complete check-in; and when you want credit for a purchase, you photograph your paper or printed receipt to submit it for points. Photos taken for scanning are processed on-device to read the QR code and are not stored; receipt photos are uploaded to your account so our team can verify the transaction and award points.
• Photo Library (required for receipts and profile photo): You can choose an existing photo instead of taking a new one. For example, you may select a saved screenshot of a digital receipt or order confirmation to submit for points, or pick a photo from your library to use as your profile picture. We only access the specific photo you select — we never scan or upload your entire photo library.
• Notifications (optional): Used to send you points updates, bonus offers, and event reminders. For example, you'll receive a notification when a receipt is approved and points are added to your balance. You can disable this at any time in your profile settings or device settings.

Permissions we do NOT request: MxGladyx does not request microphone access, does not record audio, and does not request your device's GPS or precise location. The map feature displays business locations based on addresses entered by businesses, not your device location. The app does not use the Advertising Identifier (IDFA) and does not engage in tracking as defined by Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework (see Section 6).

All permissions are optional. You can use the app without granting Camera or Photo Library access (manual entry and member lookup remain available), and any permission can be revoked at any time through your device settings.

4. How We Use Your Information

• To manage your membership account and points balance
• To process transactions and reward redemptions
• To verify receipt submissions
• To track daily check-in streaks and award bonus points
• To manage the referral program and track referred members
• To send you notifications about points earned and offers (if enabled)
• To generate leaderboard rankings
• To improve our platform and services

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with participating businesses only to the extent necessary to process your transactions and award points. We do not share your private information (legal name, email, or state) with businesses. Uploaded receipt images are used solely to verify your transactions.

Public Leaderboard: MxGladyx displays a public, city-based member leaderboard within the app. This shows member display names, points, and activity rankings to celebrate community engagement. Participation is a core feature of the loyalty program and your display name will appear on the leaderboard. You may update or change your display name at any time from your profile.

Impact Reports: We may feature members, businesses, and community impact highlights in our in-app Impact Report. When an individual is highlighted by name or photo, we obtain their explicit permission first. Impact Report data (e.g., total points earned, dollars contributed to local businesses) is aggregated from your loyalty activity and displayed within the app for community engagement purposes.

6. Tracking & Advertising

MxGladyx does not track you. We do not engage in "tracking" as defined by Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework. Specifically, we do not:

• Link your app activity or data with third-party data for advertising
• Share data with data brokers or advertising networks
• Use the Advertising Identifier (IDFA) or any device-level advertising identifier
• Include third-party advertising or analytics SDKs that track across apps and websites
• Collect precise or coarse device location — the map feature shows business locations only, based on addresses entered by businesses, not your device's location

Your transaction and purchase history is used solely to operate the MxGladyx loyalty rewards program (calculating points, generating leaderboards, and producing Impact Reports). It is never sold, shared with advertisers, or used for cross-app behavioral advertising. Because we do not track, the app does not request App Tracking Transparency permission.

7. Data Retention & Deletion

Your data is retained for as long as your account is active. You may request account deletion at any time from your Member Card page. Upon deletion, your personal data will be deactivated and scheduled for removal within 30 days.

8. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including HTTPS/TLS encryption for all data in transit and secure authentication for sign-in.

However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Apple Disclaimer

Apple is not responsible for any liability, system errors, data corruption, or loss of membership points or physical rewards associated with this platform.
