Introduction
LoveTanked is committed to protecting the privacy of your relationship workspace. The app is designed so private relationship logs, Tank Tips, Tank Maintenance notes, quizlet content, and Message in a Bottle conversations remain private to you and your partner.
Data Collection and Sharing
LoveTanked does not upload or share your private relationship content in readable form. Tank Tips, Tank Maintenance notes, quizlet text and answers, Message in a Bottle text, topic titles, drafts and journal entries, love tank levels, profile nicknames, partner relationship details, and decrypted payloads are not collected for analytics and are not readable by LoveTanked operators.
Optional privacy-safe analytics are off by default. If enabled, LoveTanked may share generic events such as screen names, feature areas, app version, platform, results, and subscription product identifiers. Analytics must not include relationship content, partner identifiers, mailbox identifiers, push tokens, nicknames, Tank Tips, quizlet content, notes, or love tank levels.
Crash and Performance Diagnostics
Technical diagnostics help identify crashes and performance problems. You can turn them off in LoveTanked Settings. Firebase Crashlytics may process crash stack traces, exception details, app version, device model, operating-system information, and app-install identifiers. Firebase Performance Monitoring may process app-install identifiers, device and network characteristics, response codes, timing and payload-size measurements, and country inferred from an IP address.
Relationship content is prohibited from diagnostic reports. LoveTanked does not deliberately attach names, partner identifiers, Tank Tips, quizlet content, Message in a Bottle text, Tank Maintenance notes, love tank levels, precise location, or decrypted payloads.
Operational Install and Entitlement Metrics
LoveTanked records minimal operational heartbeat metadata so we can understand active installs, supported app versions, platform mix, and premium entitlement health. This may include a random installation identifier, platform, app version, build number, last-seen date, broad pairing state, and non-content entitlement status such as free, paid owner, or shared premium access.
Operational metrics do not include relationship content, nicknames, photos, Tank Tips, quizlet text or answers, Tank Maintenance notes, Message in a Bottle text, love tank levels, push tokens, precise location, or decrypted payloads.
GoFish Location and Venue Processing
GoFish can find venue suggestions in manual-area mode or device-location mode. In manual-area mode, you provide a city, state, or ZIP code and LoveTanked does not request device GPS. In device-location mode, LoveTanked requests one current foreground location only when you ask GoFish to find venues. LoveTanked does not request background or continuous location.
To fulfill a venue request, LoveTanked sends the selected suggestion text and either the manual area or current coordinates to an authenticated LoveTanked cloud function. The function may use Google's Gemini service to convert suggestions into venue-search queries and Google Places to locate matching venues. LoveTanked does not intentionally save submitted coordinates in the relationship database or Firestore.
Local Cryptography and Security
Personal relationship tracking logs are encrypted client-side using SQLCipher and reside in device storage. Database keys are generated on your device and stored with platform secure storage, so LoveTanked operators cannot read your local database.
Ephemeral Message Relay
Synchronization uses ephemeral cloud transport mailboxes that temporarily queue unreadable ciphertext. Once a receiving device decrypts, saves, and acknowledges a sync message, the ciphertext is deleted from the mailbox. Undelivered ciphertext automatically expires after no more than seven days.
Encrypted Recovery
LoveTanked can create an encrypted recovery capsule so you can restore approved local app data after reinstalling or replacing a device. The capsule is encrypted on your device with a recovery password that LoveTanked does not receive, store, or have the ability to recover.
On iOS, the encrypted capsule may be stored in your private iCloud CloudKit database. On Android, it may be stored in Google Drive's hidden application-data folder. Google account authorization remains between your device and Google, and LoveTanked does not send your Google account identity to its own services for recovery.
Peer Connection and Deletion
You control your local data. You can terminate the connection with your partner at any time. Unpairing automatically deletes locally stored partner tank levels and pairing information from your device.
