Monelle
Privacy Policy
App: Monelle | Last updated: 2026-08-10 | Contact: refujiomktrenesha@outlook.com
Two separate topics — please read both.
1) Cafe journal content (local):
Monelle’s Cafe coffee-collection experience does not use third-party AI services.
Your photos, collection records, kit items, nickname, avatar, posters, and Coffee Beans balance are kept on your device and are not sold, rented, or leaked as advertising inventory.
2) Advertising analytics (app-wide, including Cafe / review experience):
Monelle still uses Adjust for install attribution and advertising measurement.
This may involve Device ID / advertising identifiers, tracking, and Third-Party Advertising analytics.
Cafe / review experience does not disable Adjust. Choosing “Ask App Not to Track” limits identifier access but does not remove Adjust from the app binary.
This Privacy Policy explains how Monelle (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information when you use the Monelle iOS app, including the Cafe coffee-collection experience. By using Monelle, you agree to this Policy.
1. Information We Collect
Getting started
You can start with “Explore now” after agreeing to the Terms and this Privacy Policy. No email or password is required.
User content (stored on your device)
- Coffee collection records (photo, type, brand, city, notes)
- Generated posters and related local files
- Brew Kit items (name, weight, and optional voice-derived text)
- Profile nickname and avatar image
- Coffee Beans balance and purchase transaction IDs used to prevent double-crediting on this device
- Default preferences (for example default poster style / record type)
Device ID, advertising data & diagnostics
For App Store operation and advertising attribution, Monelle may process:
- Device ID / advertising identifier (IDFA) — when you allow tracking under App Tracking Transparency (ATT)
- Adjust identifiers (such as Adjust ADID) and attribution fields (network, campaign, adgroup, creative, click label)
- Limited device / app context needed for attribution and purchase analytics
Crash or operational diagnostics may also be handled by Apple’s systems.
Purchases
If you buy Coffee Beans packs, Apple processes the payment. We receive purchase outcomes necessary to credit Beans on your device. Purchase events may also be reported to Adjust for attribution. We do not receive your full payment card details.
2. How We Use Your Information
- Provide the Cafe journal, Gallery, Brew Kit, Profile, and poster features
- Save and display your local collection and posters
- Process Coffee Beans purchases and deduct Beans for high-res poster generation
- Honor your permission choices for camera, photos, microphone, speech, and tracking
- Measure app installs, campaigns, and advertising performance via Adjust (Third-Party Advertising / tracking)
- Attribute where you discovered the app using Device ID / advertising identifiers when ATT is authorized
3. Local Storage vs. Server / Partner Processing
In the Cafe experience:
- Local journal content: collection records, posters, kit items, nickname, avatar, preferences, and Coffee Beans balance are stored on your device (UserDefaults / on-device files) and are not uploaded as a Cafe cloud journal.
- Clear All Data: permanently removes local Cafe journal content from that device, including collection records, posters, Brew Kit / gear list, Beans, nickname, avatar, and preferences. Exit alone does not delete this data.
- Apple IAP: purchase receipts are handled through Apple’s StoreKit / App Store systems.
- Adjust (including during Cafe / review experience): advertising attribution and analytics events may be sent to Adjust. This is separate from your Cafe journal photos and notes. Review experience does not mean “no advertising analytics.”
4. AI Features & Image Processing
No third-party AI services.
Poster creation and related creative features in Monelle’s Cafe experience are provided within Monelle.
We do not send your photos or personal information to third-party AI providers, and we do not use third-party AI services that could leak your content.
Your collection photos and generated posters remain under your control on your device.
5. Device Permissions
| Permission | How Monelle uses it |
|---|
| Camera |
Photograph coffee cups, bags, and collectible pieces for collection records and posters. |
| Photo Library |
Select existing photos for collection records and posters; save exported photos/posters to Camera Roll when you choose. |
| Microphone |
Optional voice input when logging details hands-free (for example Brew Kit entries). |
| Speech Recognition |
Convert spoken words into text for hands-free logging. |
| App Tracking Transparency (ATT) |
Requests permission to access your advertising identifier (Device ID / IDFA) for Adjust install attribution and Third-Party Advertising measurement. You can deny tracking and still use Cafe features; Adjust may still operate with limited (non-IDFA) data. |
6. Third-Party Services
- Apple App Store / StoreKit — in-app purchases of Coffee Beans packs
- Apple Speech / system frameworks — system speech recognition when you use voice input
- Adjust — third-party advertising / install attribution SDK. Processes Device ID / advertising identifiers (when allowed), Adjust identifiers, attribution data, and related analytics. Used app-wide, including while you are in the Cafe / review experience.
Monelle does not use third-party AI services for Cafe posters. We do not sell your Cafe journal content. Advertising analytics via Adjust is disclosed above and is distinct from local journal storage.
7. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information or leak your Cafe collection content. We may share limited data as follows:
- With Apple to complete purchases
- With Adjust for install attribution, campaign measurement, and Third-Party Advertising analytics (Device ID / advertising data when ATT is authorized)
- When required by law or to protect safety / rights
Your data may be used to track you across apps and websites owned by other companies when you authorize tracking, for advertising attribution purposes via Adjust.
8. Data Retention
Cafe content remains on your device until you delete individual items, use Clear All Data in Profile, uninstall the app, or otherwise clear app storage. Exit only signs you out and does not delete local Cafe data. Purchase records retained by Apple follow Apple’s policies. Advertising identifiers used by Adjust follow Apple / Adjust retention practices.
9. Clearing Your Data
Because Cafe mode keeps content on this device, clearing is performed on-device:
- Use Clear All Data in Profile to permanently remove local Cafe data on this device. This cannot be undone. Cleared data includes:
- Collection records and photos
- Generated posters
- Brew Kit / gear list items
- Coffee Beans balance
- Nickname, avatar, and default preferences
- Use Exit only to return to the welcome screen; your local collection remains until you use Clear All Data
- You may also delete/uninstall the app to remove remaining on-device data
- App Store purchases are managed by Apple; clearing local data does not automatically issue a refund
For additional help, email refujiomktrenesha@outlook.com.
10. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information stored by the app. No method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Keep your device locked and updated.
11. Children's Privacy
Monelle is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child provided information, contact us and we will help remove it where applicable.
12. International Users
Monelle is offered internationally via the App Store. By using the app, you understand that processing may involve Apple services and systems available in your region.
13. Your Choices & Rights
- Deny camera, photos, microphone, or speech permissions in iOS Settings (some features will be limited)
- Deny App Tracking in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking
- Export or delete collection photos/posters you saved to Camera Roll using iOS Photos
- Clear local Cafe data from Profile
Depending on your region, you may have additional privacy rights. Contact us to exercise them.
14. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised Policy.
