Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how PoliPOS handles information when you use our mobile application.

Effective date: October 2, 2026

1. About PoliPOS

PoliPOS is a point-of-sale application developed and operated by Politech Studio. The app is designed to help businesses manage sales, products, inventory, employees, transactions, reports, and other business operations.

2. Information Stored by PoliPOS

PoliPOS may store information that you enter into the application, including:

  • Business or store information
  • Product and inventory information
  • Product prices and stock quantities
  • Sales and transaction records
  • Employee names, roles, and login information
  • Customer information entered during transactions
  • Table, order, modifier, and ingredient information
  • Application settings and preferences

Most business information used by PoliPOS is stored locally on your device using the application's local database.

3. Employee PINs and Authentication

PoliPOS may allow businesses to create employee accounts and PIN-based authentication. Authentication information is used only to control access to different areas and roles within the application.

We recommend that users choose secure PINs and avoid sharing administrator credentials with unauthorized individuals.

4. Local Data Storage

PoliPOS is primarily designed to operate using local device storage. Information such as products, inventory, sales records, employee information, and application settings may be stored in a local database on your Android device.

Politech Studio does not automatically receive all business records stored inside your local PoliPOS database.

5. Advertising

The free version of PoliPOS may display banner advertisements provided by third-party advertising services such as Google AdMob.

Advertising providers may automatically collect or process certain information, which can include:

  • Device identifiers
  • Advertising identifiers
  • Approximate location based on network information
  • Device and operating system information
  • Advertisement interaction information
  • Diagnostic and performance information

This information may be processed by Google or other advertising partners according to their own privacy policies.

6. Google Play Billing and Premium Subscriptions

PoliPOS offers optional paid or premium features through Google Play Billing.

Payments made through Google Play are processed by Google. Politech Studio does not directly receive or store your complete credit card, debit card, or other payment credentials.

PoliPOS may receive information from Google Play necessary to determine whether a subscription or purchase is active, such as purchase status, product identifiers, and subscription entitlement information.

7. Device Region and Currency

PoliPOS may read your device locale or regional settings to select an appropriate default currency when the application is first configured.

This region information is used for application configuration and formatting purposes. Users may change their preferred currency in PoliPOS settings.

8. Permissions

Depending on the features you use and the Android version installed on your device, PoliPOS may request permissions required for application functionality.

Permissions are requested only when required by a feature or by services integrated into the application.

9. Third-Party Services

PoliPOS may use third-party services provided by Google and other service providers. These services may process data according to their own privacy policies.

Third-party services may include:

  • Google Play Services
  • Google Play Billing

Information may also be disclosed when required by applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.

12. Data Retention

Business information stored locally in PoliPOS generally remains on the device until it is deleted by the user, removed through application features, or erased when application data is cleared or the application is uninstalled.

Third-party providers may retain information according to their own retention policies.
