Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 24, 2026

Introduction

Vault Hollandia ("the App", "we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your information. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected, how it is used, and your rights when using Vault Hollandia.

By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

Vault Hollandia is designed with privacy as a core principle. The App does not require account registration, email addresses, phone numbers, or other personally identifiable information to function.

Information stored within the App may include:

• Collection records
• Precious metal holdings
• Notes and inventory information
• Photos added by the user
• Usernames
• PIN codes
• Recovery passphrases

This information is stored locally on the user's device and is not transmitted to developer-operated servers.

Local Data Storage

All collection data, inventory records, photos, notes, and related information are stored locally on your device.

Vault Hollandia does not upload or synchronize your collection data to any developer-operated cloud service or server.

Data stored within the App is protected using encryption technologies and security measures designed to help prevent unauthorized access.

Precious Metal Price Data

The App retrieves current gold and silver market prices from external data providers through a server operated by the developer. When retrieving price information:

• No collection data is transmitted.
• No inventory data is transmitted.
• No personally identifiable information is intentionally transmitted.
• Requests are used solely to retrieve current market pricing information.

Price information is provided for informational purposes only and may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate.

Push Notifications

The App may send notifications to users. Notifications may include:

• App updates
• General announcements
• Informational messages
• Feature-related notifications

No collection records, inventory information, or sensitive user data are included in these notifications.

Backups

The App may allow users to export backup files. Exported backups are created and controlled entirely by the user.

Vault Hollandia does not automatically upload backups to developer-operated servers or cloud storage services.

Users are solely responsible for securing and managing exported backup files.

Photos and Camera Access

The App may request access to your device camera and storage in order to:

• Capture photos of collection items
• Store photos within the App
• Import data
• Export data

Photos remain stored locally on the user's device unless manually exported by the user.

Analytics and Tracking

Vault Hollandia does not use:

• Advertising networks
• Behavioral tracking
• User profiling
• Third-party analytics platforms

We do not sell, rent, share, or monetize user data.

Third-Party Services

The App may communicate with third-party services solely for:

• Retrieving precious metal pricing data
• Delivering application functionality

Only the minimum technical information required for these services to operate may be exchanged.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to help protect user data through encryption, secure application design, and ongoing improvements to the App.

However, no method of electronic storage, software development, or data transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

While we continuously work to improve security and reliability, users acknowledge that all software carries inherent risks.

Development Transparency

Vault Hollandia is developed using a combination of human oversight and modern AI-assisted software development tools.

AI-assisted tools, including Claude AI, may have contributed to portions of the application's codebase during development.

All functionality, security measures, and design decisions are reviewed and maintained by the developer. We continuously work to improve the App's security, stability, privacy protections, and overall user experience through ongoing learning, testing, and refinement.

Independent Project Disclaimer

Vault Hollandia is an independent passion project. The App is not operated by a corporation, financial institution, investment company, cybersecurity firm, or other professional organization.

The App is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.

While we make reasonable efforts to maintain security, stability, and functionality, we do not guarantee that the App will always be free from bugs, vulnerabilities, interruptions, inaccuracies, or data loss.

No Financial, Investment, or Legal Advice

Vault Hollandia is intended solely as a collection, inventory, and precious metals tracking tool. Any pricing information displayed within the App is provided for informational purposes only.

Nothing within the App should be considered financial, investment, trading, tax, accounting, or legal advice. Users should conduct their own research and consult qualified professionals before making financial or investment decisions.

User Responsibility for Backups

Users are strongly encouraged to maintain secure backups of their data. Vault Hollandia is not responsible for data loss resulting from:

• Device failure
• Hardware defects
• Accidental deletion
• Corrupted storage
• Theft or loss of a device
• Loss of exported backup files
• Software issues
• Circumstances beyond our reasonable control

Users remain responsible for safeguarding their own data and backup files.

Children's Privacy

Vault Hollandia is not specifically directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your Rights

Because your data is stored locally on your device, you retain direct control over your information. You may:

• Delete your data at any time.
• Export your data for backup purposes.
• Uninstall the App to remove locally stored information, subject to your device's storage behavior.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date shown at the top of this document.

Continued use of the App after changes are published constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
