Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2025-12-16
Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how VC Software Solutions (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit our website or use our services.
Information we collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
- Analytics data (e.g. pages viewed, approximate location, device/browser).
- Usage data (e.g. interactions, navigation patterns, performance metrics).
- Contact data you choose to provide (e.g. when you email us).
Grocery Planner app data
If you use our Grocery Planner app, we may process information needed to provide the app’s functionality. This can include the content you enter and app usage information.
- User-provided content (e.g. grocery items, lists, quantities, categories, notes, and preferences you create in the app).
- Device/usage information (e.g. app version, device type, performance data, and interaction events) for reliability and improvement.
- Cloud sync (if enabled/available) : if you choose to use any syncing, backup, or account features, your data may be stored and processed by our third‑party providers (for example Firebase). Those providers’ terms and privacy policies apply to their processing.
We aim to collect and retain only what is reasonably necessary to operate and improve Grocery Planner. You can typically remove your app data by using in‑app deletion features (if provided) and/or uninstalling the app; synced data may require additional steps depending on the provider.
Analytics (Firebase)
We use Firebase Analytics to understand how visitors use our site and to improve it. Firebase Analytics may collect identifiers and information about your device, browser, and usage patterns, and it may set or read cookies or similar technologies.
Google’s use of data is governed by Google’s terms and privacy policy. You can learn more at Google Privacy Policy.
Third‑party services and links
Our website may rely on third‑party services (for example hosting providers, analytics, embedded tools, or external APIs). These services are operated by third parties and are subject to their own privacy policies and security practices.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices or security of third‑party services, including any losses, damages, or disclosures that occur on third‑party systems. If you follow a link to an external site or service, review their policies.

Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, VC Software Solutions will not be liable for unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of information caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including vulnerabilities or incidents affecting third‑party services.
