Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 2026

Welcome to FixBuddy: AI Repair & DIY. We are committed to helping you fix what's broken while keeping your privacy intact. This policy explains our data handling in compliance with GDPR and global privacy standards.

1. Data We Collect

Using Firebase Anonymous Auth, we prioritize your anonymity. We process:

• Images & Prompts: Photos of items or descriptions you provide are processed by our AI to generate repair solutions and DIY instructions.
• Device ID: Used to manage your AI usage limits and prevent fraudulent activity.
• Usage Data: Anonymous metrics (e.g., types of items fixed) to improve the accuracy of our repair suggestions.

2. AI Processing

Our AI analyzes your photos and text to identify mechanical or structural issues. Images are processed on secure cloud servers. We do not sell your photos to third parties, and your data is used strictly to provide you with repair guidance.

3. Advertising & app-ads.txt

We use Google AdMob to fund our AI servers. AdMob may use your Advertising ID to show relevant DIY or hardware-related ads. You can manage these permissions in your device's "Privacy" settings. Our authorized digital sellers are listed in our app-ads.txt file.

4. Your Rights

You have the right to access or delete your data. Because we use anonymous IDs, clearing your app cache or deleting the app generally removes your local history. For specific data requests, contact us below.
