Privacy Policy

This privacy policy describes how Vera RCM, Inc. ("we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with BinderIQ (the "App") and the binderiq.app website (the "Website").

The short version: BinderIQ does not collect personal data. All scanning, OCR, and duplicate detection runs on your device. Your collection syncs via your private iCloud account — we never see your data.

Information We Collect

App: BinderIQ does not collect personal information, usage analytics, telemetry, or crash reports. The App does not include any third-party analytics SDKs. All card scanning, OCR text recognition, and duplicate detection processing runs entirely on your device using Apple's Vision and CoreML frameworks.

Website: The binderiq.app website is a static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages. It does not use analytics, advertising pixels, or tracking cookies. No personal data is collected through the website.

iCloud Sync

BinderIQ uses Apple's CloudKit to sync your collection across your devices. This data is stored in your private iCloud account and is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy. We do not have access to your iCloud data. Sync is an opt-in premium feature.

Card Images & Data

Card images and metadata (player name, set, grade, etc.) are stored locally on your device using SwiftData. When iCloud Sync is enabled, this data syncs to your private iCloud account. Card images and data are:

• Stored locally — on your device and optionally in your private iCloud account
• Never uploaded to our servers — we operate no servers that receive your data
• Processed on-device — OCR, ML card detection, and duplicate matching all run locally

External Services

BinderIQ connects to external services only when you explicitly request it:

• PSA & Beckett lookups — sends the certificate number you provide to check grade and population data
• eBay price checks — sends card details or images to search for comparable listings

These requests are initiated only by your explicit action (tapping a lookup button). No data is sent automatically or in the background.

Purchases and Payments

BinderIQ offers a 7-day free trial and a $0.99/month subscription. All payment processing is handled entirely by Apple through StoreKit 2. We do not receive, process, or store any payment information, including credit card numbers, billing addresses, or Apple ID credentials.

For details on how Apple handles your purchase information, see Apple's Privacy Policy.

Children's Privacy

Because BinderIQ does not collect personal data from any user, it is compliant with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and similar regulations. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 — or from anyone.

Data Retention

We retain no data because we collect no data. Your card collection, images, and metadata exist only on your devices and in your private iCloud account.

Your Rights

Under GDPR, CCPA, and similar privacy regulations, you have rights regarding your personal data. Because BinderIQ collects no personal data, there is nothing to access, correct, delete, or port. If you have questions about this, please contact us.

Changes to This Policy

If we make changes to this privacy policy, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and post the revised policy here.
