Privacy Policy
Last updated 12 September 2026
This policy explains what personal data Robin Singh, trading as Flicka (“we”, “us”) collects when you use Flicka, why, and what your rights are. The short version: your recordings never leave your device, and the only personal data we hold is what is needed to sign you in and to know which plan you are on.
1. What stays on your device
Screen recordings, webcam video, microphone audio, screenshots, annotations, cursor data and every project setting are processed in your browser and stored in your browser's local storage (IndexedDB and localStorage). None of it is sent to our servers on any plan. We cannot access it.
Exports you download go to your device. We do not receive a copy.
2. Data we collect when you sign in
Signing in is optional and only needed to buy or use a Pro plan. When you sign in with Google through Firebase Authentication we receive from Google your name, email address, profile picture and a Google account identifier. Firebase (Google LLC) stores your account record on our behalf.
We use this to identify your account, show your name in the app, tie your plan to your account and contact you about your purchase or the Service.
3. Data we collect when you buy Pro
Purchases are made through Paddle, our merchant of record. Paddle collects your payment details, billing address and tax information directly. We never see your card number. Paddle's privacy policy (https://www.paddle.com/legal/privacy) governs that data.
Paddle sends us a record of the purchase: which plan you bought, its status, renewal date, a customer identifier, a subscription or transaction identifier, and the email used at checkout. We store this against your account in Google Firestore so the app knows which plan to unlock. We keep it while your account has a plan and for as long as we need it for accounting and tax obligations.
4. Data stored in your browser by us
- Your Firebase sign-in session, so you stay signed in.
- A copy of your last verified sign-in token, so your plan still works for up to seven days without a connection.
- Preferences such as theme, recording defaults and first-run progress.
This is technical storage needed to run the Service. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not run third-party analytics or ad scripts on the Service.
5. Server logs
Our hosting provider (Vercel Inc.) records standard request logs, including IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time, for security and to keep the Service running. Logs are kept for a short period and then deleted.
6. Who we share data with
- Google LLC (Firebase Authentication and Firestore): account and plan records.
- Paddle: payment processing, invoicing, tax and refunds, as merchant of record.
- Vercel Inc.: hosting the website and its API.
These providers process data under their own terms and security programmes. We do not sell personal data and we do not share it with advertisers.
7. Legal basis
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies: we process account and purchase data to perform our contract with you; server logs and fraud prevention on the basis of our legitimate interest in running a secure service; and tax records to meet legal obligations.
8. International transfers
We are based in India. Google, Paddle and Vercel may process data in the United States and other countries. They rely on standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards for transfers out of the EEA and UK.
9. Your rights
You can ask us to access, correct, export or delete the personal data we hold about you, or object to or restrict its processing, by emailing support@tryflicka.com. We answer within 30 days. If you delete your account we remove your account record and plan record, keeping only what tax law requires us to keep about the purchase itself. Data in your browser is under your control: clearing site data removes it.
If you are in the EEA or UK you can also complain to your local data protection authority.
10. Children
The Service is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.
11. Changes
We may update this policy. The date at the top shows the current version, and we will announce material changes in the app or by email.
