Aquascape: Planted Tank Calc — Privacy Policy

The short version

Aquascape: Planted Tank Calc does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Everything you enter (tanks, methodologies, brand selections, dose history) stays on your device.

What we collect

Nothing. The app has no user accounts, no analytics, no advertising SDKs, and no third-party trackers. We do not collect your name, email, location, device identifiers, or usage data.

What we store on your device

The app saves your tanks (name, volume, units, tank type, methodology, EI variant) and dose history (per-salt entries, timestamps, notes) locally on your device using iOS SwiftData. This data:

• Lives only on your device. It is not synced to iCloud unless you have enabled device-level iCloud Backup for the app, in which case it is encrypted by Apple and inaccessible to us.
• Is never transmitted to Moon Dog, Daria Kopaliani, Roman Kopaliani, or any third party.
• Is deleted when you delete the app.

Network usage

Aquascape makes no network requests for its core functionality. Methodology recipes, brand dose tables, CO₂ tables, and remineralization rates are bundled into the app at install time. The app does not phone home, check for updates outside the App Store mechanism, or fetch remote content.

Methodology and brand data sources

The bundled methodology recipes and brand dose tables are sourced from the named hobbyist authors (Tom Barr for Estimative Index, ChrisCowAU/Edward for PPS-Pro, Sears & Conlin for PMDD) and from each brand's public dosing-information pages (Seachem, NilocG, 2HR Aquarist). The CO₂ estimator uses Chuck Gadd's pH/KH table. GH/KH remineralization rates come from Seachem's Equilibrium label and Salty Shrimp's published rates. These sources are not contacted at runtime; their data is embedded in the app.

Children's privacy

Aquascape is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from anyone of any age (because it does not collect data at all).

Changes

If this policy changes materially, the updated version will appear here with a new effective date.
