PromptVault
🔒 Privacy First

Your Privacy,
Our Commitment

We built PromptVault to be transparent about every piece of data we collect, why we need it, and how long we keep it.

Effective: May 14, 2026
Last Updated: May 14, 2026
App: PromptVault (com.promptvault)
📋

Overview

PromptVault is an AI prompt library app that lets you browse, save, copy, and generate prompts for tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our app on iOS or Android.

💡
Plain-English Summary We collect only what we need to run the app. We never sell your personal information to third parties. We use trusted platforms (Firebase, Google) that each have their own privacy certifications.

By using PromptVault, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you disagree, please stop using the app and contact us to delete your account.

📦

Data We Collect

We collect three categories of data: information you give us directly, data generated by your activity in the app, and technical data collected automatically.

Category Data Points Why We Need It
Account Info Display name, email address, profile picture URL, Firebase UID To identify you, personalise your feed, and link your saves/likes to your account
Preferences Selected interest categories (e.g. Images, Coding), theme (light/dark), onboarding state To personalise the home feed and remember your settings
App Activity Saved prompts, liked prompts, collections/folders, daily view count, credits balance, last view reset timestamp To power your Saved tab, enforce free-tier limits, and maintain your credit balance
Community Content Submitted prompts, comments, votes To power the community tab and run content moderation
Analytics Events Screen views, prompt copies, likes, saves, AI generations, subscription starts, ad views, credit spends, search queries To understand feature usage and improve the app
Push Token Firebase Cloud Messaging device token To deliver push notifications about new trending prompts (if opted in)
Device / Technical IP address, device OS, advertising ID (IDFA/GAID) For ad serving, fraud prevention, and crash reporting
We do NOT collect Passwords (handled entirely by Firebase Auth / Google / Apple), GPS location, contacts, phone number, microphone data, or camera data.

Third-Party Services

PromptVault uses the following trusted services. Each service processes data under its own privacy policy, which we link below.

Firebase Auth
Authentication
Handles Google, Apple, and email sign-in. Stores your UID, email, and display name. Privacy: google.com/privacy
Cloud Firestore
Database
Stores your profile, saved prompts, collections, credits, and community submissions in Google's cloud infrastructure.
Firebase Analytics
Analytics
Tracks screen views and key events (copies, likes, purchases). Data is pseudonymous and aggregated. You can opt out via device settings.
Firebase Messaging
Notifications
Sends push notifications about new trending prompts. Requires your FCM device token. You can disable notifications in device settings at any time.
Cloudinary
Image Hosting
Hosts prompt preview images and profile pictures. Privacy: cloudinary.com/privacy
Firebase Cloud Functions
Backend Logic
Runs server-side logic for AI generation calls and community moderation. AI API keys never touch the Flutter app; they live here.
Google Sign-In
Authentication
Allows sign-in with your Google account. We receive your name, email, and profile picture from Google.
Sign in with Apple
Authentication (iOS)
Allows sign-in with your Apple ID. Apple may relay a private email address to us. Privacy: apple.com/legal/privacy
Google AdMob
Advertising
Serves rewarded video ads to free-tier users. Collects device advertising ID and IP address for targeting. Privacy: google.com/policies/privacy
AppLovin MAX
Ad Mediation
Ad mediation layer that optimises fill rates across ad networks. May collect device info and advertising ID. Privacy: applovin.com/privacy
🤖

AI Services & Prompt Generation

⚠️
Important: AI services may be used for content PromptVault may use AI services on the server side to generate or enhance prompt content. No user input is sent directly to AI providers from the app.
OpenAI (ChatGPT)
AI Generation
Your prompt idea and category are sent to OpenAI's API via our Firebase Function. OpenAI may use this data according to its API usage policy. Privacy: openai.com/privacy
Google Gemini
AI Generation
Same as above. Your input is routed through our Firebase Function to Google's Gemini API. Privacy: ai.google.dev/terms
Anthropic Claude
AI Generation
Same as above. Your input is routed through our Firebase Function to Anthropic's API. Privacy: anthropic.com/privacy
  • AI API keys are stored only on Firebase Functions servers — never in the app.
  • We do not permanently store the raw text you type into the generator beyond the duration of the API call.
  • Generated prompts are stored only if you explicitly choose to save them.
  • Community-submitted prompts go through automated moderation before being published.
📢

Advertising

Users can watch rewarded video ads to earn credits, which unlock premium prompts.

  • Ads are served by Google AdMob, mediated through AppLovin MAX.
  • Ad networks may collect your device advertising ID (GAID on Android, IDFA on iOS), IP address, and coarse location to serve relevant ads.
  • On iOS, we request App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission before accessing your IDFA. If you decline, contextual (non-personalised) ads are shown instead.
  • On Android, you can opt out of ad personalisation in Settings → Google → Ads.
  • Watching a rewarded ad to completion earns you 1 credit, which unlocks 1 premium prompt.
  • We do not share any personally identifiable information with ad networks beyond what the SDKs automatically collect.
💾

Local Storage & Offline Data

Some data is stored directly on your device for offline access and performance.

Storage What's Stored Why
Hive Your saved prompts (up to 20) Offline access without needing a network connection
SharedPreferences Theme preference (light/dark), onboarding seen flag, unlocked prompt IDs Persist small settings between sessions without a server round-trip
Image Cache Prompt preview images (up to 200 MB, 200 images) Smooth scrolling without re-downloading images you've already seen

All local data is stored in the app's private sandbox — other apps on your device cannot access it. Uninstalling the app removes all local data.

👥

Community Content

The Community tab lets users submit, vote on, and comment on prompts. Please be aware of the following:

  • Prompts you submit include your user ID and are publicly visible after moderation approval.
  • Comments you post include your display name and are publicly visible.
  • All community submissions pass through an automated moderation system (Firebase Cloud Functions) that checks for spam and prohibited content.
  • We reserve the right to remove content that violates our Terms of Service without prior notice.
  • You can request deletion of your community submissions by contacting us at the email below.
⚠️
Public Content Warning Do not include personal information (name, email, phone, address) in prompts or comments you submit to the community — they may be visible to all users.
🕐
