Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the mobile application ‘Kontemp’ provided by Project Kontemp Limited (“the App”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). We value user privacy and are committed to handling information in a transparent, reasonable, and necessary manner.

 

## 1. Information We Collect and Use

 

The App does not require users to create an account or log in. Therefore, we do not actively collect users’ names, phone numbers, email addresses, account passwords, or other identity-related information.

 

To provide the App’s core functions, the App may request access to the following permissions or information after obtaining the user’s authorization.

 

### 1.1 Location Information

 

The App may request access to the user’s device location to provide weather information, weather forecasts, or related weather alerts based on the user’s current area.

 

Location information is used only for weather-related functions. It is not used for advertising, user profiling, behavior tracking, or any purpose unrelated to weather services.

 

The App does not send, store, or process users’ location information through Project Kontemp Limited’s servers. To provide weather query functions, the App may send necessary location information or regional information directly to a third-party weather API service provider to obtain relevant weather data.

 

Users may disable location permission for the App at any time through the device system settings. If location permission is disabled, some weather functions based on the user’s current location may not work properly.

 

### 1.2 Bluetooth Permission

 

The App may request access to the device’s Bluetooth function to search for, connect to, and manage the user’s Bluetooth devices.

 

Bluetooth permission is used only for Bluetooth device connection, device communication, device status display, or related control functions. The App does not use Bluetooth to track the user’s location, nor does it collect personal information unrelated to Bluetooth device connection functions.

 

Bluetooth device connection and communication mainly occur locally between the user’s device and the Bluetooth device. The App does not send, store, or process Bluetooth device information through Project Kontemp Limited’s servers.

 

## 2. Data Storage

 

The App does not require users to log in and does not collect, store, or process users’ personal information, precise location information, or Bluetooth device information through Project Kontemp Limited’s servers.

 

To ensure the normal operation of the App, certain settings, connection status, device configurations, or cached data may be stored locally on the user’s device. Such data is used only to improve the App experience, such as remembering device connection status or user preferences.

 

Users may delete or limit the use of such local data by uninstalling the App, clearing the App data, or disabling relevant permissions in the device system settings.

 

## 3. Data Transfer and Sharing

 

We do not sell, rent, trade, or disclose users’ personal information to third parties.

 

Data processing related to the App mainly occurs locally on the user’s device. We do not receive, forward, or permanently store users’ location information or Bluetooth device information through our company servers.

 

In the following necessary situations, relevant information may be processed:

 

  1. To obtain weather data, the App may send necessary location information or regional information directly to a third-party weather API service provider;
  2. To enable Bluetooth device connection, the App may conduct local communication between the user’s device and the Bluetooth device;
  3. If required by applicable laws, regulations, regulatory requirements, or legal procedures, we may cooperate within the necessary scope.

 

Except for the necessary situations described above, we do not use user information for advertising tracking, third-party marketing, user profiling, or any purpose unrelated to the App’s core functions.

 

## 4. Third-Party Services

 

The App uses a third-party weather API service to provide weather information. To enable weather query functions, the third-party weather service provider may receive location information, regional information, or query requests provided by the user’s device, and may process such data in accordance with its own privacy policy.

 

The App may also use Apple iOS system services, including location, Bluetooth, and permission management features, to enable location-based weather queries and Bluetooth device connection functions.

 

We recommend that users review the privacy policies of the relevant third-party weather API service provider and Apple to understand how they process data.

 

## 5. User Choices and Controls

 

Users can manage the App’s permissions through the device system settings, including:

 

  • Enabling or disabling location permission;
  • Enabling or disabling Bluetooth permission;
  • Deleting the App and its local data.

 

If users disable certain permissions, some App functions may not work properly. However, users may still continue to use other functions that do not depend on those permissions.

 

## 6. Children’s Privacy

 

The App is not specifically designed for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us using the contact information provided in this Privacy Policy, and we will take reasonable steps to address the matter promptly.

 

## 7. Data Security

 

Since the App does not require users to log in and does not collect or store users’ personal information through Project Kontemp Limited’s servers, we aim to minimize the collection and transmission of user data by design.

 

For data stored locally on the user’s device, we take reasonable measures to protect its security. However, please understand that no electronic device or data transmission method can guarantee absolute security.

 

## 8. Updates to This Privacy Policy

 

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time based on product functions, legal requirements, or operational needs. The updated Privacy Policy will be published on the company website or within the App and will take effect from the date of publication.

 

If the update involves material changes to user rights or data processing practices, we will provide appropriate notice where reasonably possible.
