Data Privacy FAQ

Note: At Lionardo's Workshop, we prioritize your privacy. Lio Price Browser is designed with privacy in mind, collecting minimal information, storing data locally on your device, and giving you control over your data.

Does Lio Price Browser collect my personal information?

No. Lio Price Browser does not automatically collect any personal information from you. All data related to your browsing, price tracking, and other app functionality is stored locally on your device.

We only receive information from you when you voluntarily choose to send a bug report, which may include:

  • Logs of sites that do not function correctly
  • Information about the issue you encountered
  • Device information necessary for troubleshooting

No information is collected if you do not submit a bug report.

Where is my browsing and price tracking data stored?

All your data is stored locally on your device. This includes:

  • Browsing history
  • Tracked products and prices
  • Price history
  • Bookmarks
  • App preferences and settings

We do not transmit or store any of this information on our servers. Your data remains on your device and under your control.

Privacy Advantage: Because all data is stored locally, you maintain complete ownership and control of your information.

What app permissions are required and why?

Lio Price Browser requests the following permissions, all of which are used to provide core functionality:

  • Notifications: Required to send you price drop alerts and other relevant information
  • Background Processing: Needed to check price updates at intervals you specify, even when the app isn't open

These permissions are never used to collect or transmit your personal information. You can disable them at any time in your device settings or within the app.

Does the app use cookies or other tracking technologies?

The browser component of Lio Price Browser stores cookies to function properly, similar to other web browsers. These cookies are:

  • Stored locally on your device
  • Not accessible to us
  • Under your control - you can clear them at any time through the app's settings

The app itself does not use analytics, tracking pixels, or other technologies to track your behavior. Your privacy is our priority.

How long is my data retained?

Since all data is stored locally on your device, retention is entirely under your control. Your data is retained until you choose to:

  • Manually clear the data through the app's settings
  • Set a timer to automatically clear data after a specified period
  • Delete individual tracked items
  • Uninstall the app, which will remove all associated data

We do not retain any user data on our servers, so there is no server-side data retention policy.

Tip: Consider setting up auto-deletion of old tracked items in the Settings tab to keep your list manageable and improve app performance.

Is my data shared with third parties?

No. We do not share your data with third parties because:

  • We don't collect your personal data
  • All browsing and price tracking data stays on your device
  • We don't use third-party analytics services
  • We don't integrate with advertising networks

Any advertisements you see while using Lio Price Browser are served by the websites you visit, not by our app. These are part of the web content being browsed and are not inserted or controlled by us.

What about the websites I visit with Lio Price Browser?

When you visit websites with Lio Price Browser:

  • Those websites can collect data according to their own privacy policies
  • We don't intercept, analyze, or modify this data exchange
  • We don't add any tracking or collect data about which sites you visit

It's always a good practice to review the privacy policies of websites you visit, as their data collection practices are independent of our app's privacy policy.

Important: The app may contain links to third-party websites. We do not control these websites and are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

How can I control my data in the app?

You have complete control over your data through several options in the app:

  • Clear Browser Data: Remove all browser cookies and cached data through the Settings tab
  • Delete Tracked Items: Remove individual tracked items or clear all tracking data
  • Manage Bookmarks: Add, edit, or delete bookmarks at any time
  • Disable Notifications: Turn off price drop alerts in your device settings or within the app
  • Configure Auto-Deletion: Set tracked items to be automatically removed after a specified period
  • Delete All Data: Uninstalling the app will completely remove all associated data from your device

Since all data is local to your device, you have immediate and complete control over it.

How do you handle children's privacy?

Lio Price Browser is intended for users 17 years of age and older, as required by Apple for applications with unfiltered web browsers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 17.

Age verification is handled by Apple's App Store during the purchase process. If you believe a child under the age of 17 is using the app, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.

How will I be notified of changes to the privacy policy?

If we update our Privacy Policy, we will:

  • Post the new Privacy Policy on our website (lionardosworkshop.com)
  • Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of the Privacy Policy
  • Include notification of significant changes in app updates

We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy periodically. The current version is always available on our website.

Our Commitment: Lio Price Browser is designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe your browsing and shopping data should belong to you alone. If you have further questions about our privacy practices, please contact us at Davinchy@LionardosWorkshop.com.
