Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the mobile applications published by Origene Ventures and its brand DevSparks (“we”, “us”, “our”), unless a specific app provides its own separate policy. We build our apps to be private by default.

1. Information we do not collect

Our apps generally do not require you to create an account and do not collect analytics, advertising identifiers, contact lists, or browsing/usage tracking. We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not share it with advertisers — because we don’t collect it for those purposes.

2. Location

Some of our apps use your device location to provide their core function (for example, finding nearby places or stops). Where an app uses location:

• It is used on your device to deliver the feature you asked for.
• We do not transmit, store, or share your location with us or any third party.
• Where an app offers an optional background location feature (such as a hands-free prompt), it is clearly explained before the permission is requested and can be turned off at any time in your device settings.
• You can revoke location permission at any time in your device settings.

3. Data from third-party services

To provide live or reference information, some apps request data from third-party providers (for example, public transport, mapping, or open-data services). These requests contain only what is needed to fetch the relevant data and do not include your identity. Your use of those underlying services is also subject to the relevant provider’s own terms.

4. Information you choose to send us

If you use an in-app feedback or contact feature, the information you submit — such as your message, an optional email address, and any optional attachment you choose to include — is sent to us so we can read it and, if you provided an email, reply to you.

• Providing an email is optional and is used only to reply to you.
• It is never required to use the app and is never used for marketing without your separate, clear consent.
• Attachments (such as a screenshot) are sent only if you choose to add one.

5. Crash reports

Some of our apps use a crash-reporting service (Sentry, operated by Functional Software, Inc.) so we learn when the app breaks and can fix it. It is configured for the minimum:

• A crash report contains the technical error (stack trace) plus basic app and device context: app version, platform, OS version, device model, screen size and font scale.
• It does not contain your identity, an advertising identifier, your location, the stops or routes you looked at, or anything you typed. IP addresses are not stored with reports.
• No analytics, session recording, or performance tracking — errors only.
• Reports are retained by the service for a limited period (per its standard retention) and are used solely to diagnose and fix problems.

6. Permissions

Apps request only the device permissions needed for the features you use (such as location, audio playback, notifications, or selecting a photo to attach to feedback). You can grant or revoke these permissions at any time in your device settings. Denying a permission may disable the related feature but will not prevent you from using the rest of the app where possible.

7. Advertising

Our apps do not use programmatic or third-party advertising networks. An app may show a static in-house promotion for our own products; this does not track you and is not served by an ad network.

8. Children’s privacy

Our apps are intended for a general audience and do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

9. Data retention & security

Settings and content created in an app are stored locally on your device and are removed when you delete the app. Feedback you choose to send us is retained only as long as needed to respond to and act on it. Crash reports are retained per the crash service’s standard retention period. We use industry-standard secure (HTTPS) connections for any data transmitted.

10. Your rights & choices

• Use our apps without creating an account.
• Use our apps without ever submitting feedback or an email address.
• Revoke any permission at any time in your device settings.
• Request access to or deletion of any feedback you sent us by emailing the address below.

We operate in Singapore and handle any personal data you choose to provide in line with the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA). Because we keep no accounts and store no personal data on a server, there is little to no personal data to access or erase beyond feedback you have voluntarily sent us.

11. Changes to this policy

If we update this policy, we will revise the “Last updated” date above and post the new version at this address. Material changes will be reflected here.
