1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing in MyPictureQuiz is STG Ventures GmbH. You can contact us by email at info@stgventures.de.

2. Local Processing of Your Photos

MyPictureQuiz creates quiz rounds from photos and photo metadata that are available on your device. In particular, the app processes local photo data, capture dates and location metadata, depending on the photo library access you grant to the app.

Photos, videos, GPS coordinates, specific place names and your answers in the onboarding quiz are not transmitted to us, PostHog or other analytics providers. The app uses this information only locally on your device to create quiz rounds and show places in the game.

3. Anonymous Usage Analytics with PostHog

We use PostHog Cloud EU, an analytics service provided by PostHog Inc., to understand how the app is used and where users drop off during onboarding or gameplay. Processing takes place on servers in the EU, currently in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

The legal basis is our legitimate interest in improving and stabilizing the app pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

We only collect sparse, abstract usage data, for example:

  • app starts and basic status information
  • onboarding and onboarding quiz steps, but not selected answers
  • quiz starts, round results and scores only as broad categories
  • photo access status, for example full access, limited access or denied
  • the number of playable or prepared photos only as broad ranges, not as an exact list
  • paywall, purchase and restore events without payment data
  • technical diagnostic and crash data, to the extent provided by the SDK we use

PostHog uses an anonymous installation identifier for this purpose. We do not link this identifier to names, email addresses, Apple IDs, accounts or other directly identifying information.

4. What We Do Not Collect

In particular, we do not collect the following for usage analytics:

  • photos or videos from your photo library
  • GPS coordinates or specific location data from your photos
  • specific cities, countries or place names from your photo library
  • answer text from the onboarding quiz
  • name, email address, phone number or Apple ID
  • advertising IDs or data for personalized advertising

We do not use the collected data for advertising, retargeting, ad measurement or sharing with data brokers.

5. Opt-out in the App

Anonymous usage analytics is enabled by default. You can disable it at any time in the app under Settings > Privacy > Anonymous usage analytics. When you disable this feature, the app will not send any further analytics events.

6. Purchases and Payment Data

Subscriptions and in-app purchases are processed by Apple. We do not receive payment data such as credit card numbers or bank details. For usage analytics, abstract events such as the start or completion of a purchase may be collected without transmitting payment data or personal payment information.

7. Retention and Deletion

Analytics data is stored only for as long as it is needed for product analytics and app improvement. You can request access to or deletion of data stored for your anonymous installation identifier, to the extent that assignment is technically possible.

8. Your Rights

Subject to the legal requirements, you have the right to access, rectification, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and objection to processing. You may also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority.
