Privacy Policy
This is a translation for convenience. The German version at yeara.co/datenschutz is authoritative.
We treat your data the way we build our product: sparingly and without back doors. This policy informs you, in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP), about which personal data we process.
Controller
Pingvite AG, Strehlgasse 2, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland (UID CHE-184.686.389) and Hoessly Labs (sole proprietorship), Switzerland – joint operators of yeara.co
Email: hello@yeara.co
What data we process
When you pre-order: name, shipping and billing address, email address and payment information. Payment is processed by Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. (Ireland); credit card and TWINT data are processed exclusively by Stripe and never reach us. Further information: stripe.com/privacy.
When you visit the website: our website is hosted by Vercel Inc. (USA). When you access it, technically necessary data (e.g. IP address, browser type) is processed in server logs. We use Vercel Analytics in its cookieless variant: no cookies, no cross-device tracking, no sharing with advertising networks.
When you email us: we use your details only to answer your request.
Yeara App
Account: to sign you in to the app, we process your email address; your account receives an internal identifier. Account and data are stored with Supabase (Supabase Inc., data center in Zürich, Switzerland); the sign-in code is sent by Resend (Resend Inc., data center in Ireland, EU) on our behalf.
Screen Time: the app uses Apple’s Screen Time interface (Family Controls) to lock the apps and websites you have chosen. Which apps you choose stays exclusively on your iPhone. We see neither your selection nor your usage.
What we store: the names of your modes and how many apps they contain, the chip identifier of your egg, the start and end of your lock sessions, the number of your emergency unlocks, and your device model, iOS version and language and appearance setting. This keeps your egg linked to your account, and the app keeps working on a new phone.
Deletion: under Settings › Account › Delete account you remove your account and all associated data immediately and permanently.
No tracking: no advertising, no analytics services, no sharing for advertising or analytics purposes. Who we share data with to operate the app is set out under “Sharing”.
Purpose and legal basis
We process this data to fulfill your order and to operate the Yeara app (performance of contract), to operate and secure the website, and to comply with legal obligations (e.g. accounting).
Sharing
We do not sell data and share it only with the service providers necessary for operation: Stripe (payment, Ireland), Vercel (hosting, USA), Supabase (account and app data, Zürich) and Resend (sign-in codes, Ireland), as well as shipping providers for delivery. EU countries are recognized under Swiss data protection law as providing adequate protection. For the USA we additionally safeguard protection, in particular through standard contractual clauses or, where certified, the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes stated or as long as statutory retention obligations apply (generally 10 years for business records). We keep your account data in the Yeara app for as long as your account exists; if you delete it, the data is removed immediately and permanently.
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectify, delete and port your data, and the right to object to processing. To do so, write to us at hello@yeara.co.
