GetSorted
Unclutter Your Photo Library With Ease.
Privacy Policy
Switch to: German Version
Your privacy is very important to us. GetSorted does therefor not collect or upload any of your media, such as
images or videos, to our servers.
GetSorted is an app developed by Thomas Jirout in Vienna, Austria.
The development and the usage data (more on this below) collected by this app will be analyzed and are an
important contribution to a bachelor thesis on gamification at Vienna University of Technology.
- In order to provide our service, we maintain a local database on your device with information and
metadata about your
media, such as photos and images, so that GetSorted can remember things like which items you have already
sorted or which months you have started sorting. This database exists only locally on your device and is
not uploaded or synced with our servers.
- We use the external service Firebase to collect usage data. This helps us to learn how our users use our
app and gives us insight on areas to improve. Such data may include, among other metrics, how frequently
our users open the app, how much time they spend sorting, or how many photos they have in their photo
library. Firebase creates a randomly generated Instance ID for every user using the app. This way,
Firebase can bundle information it collects by user. This helps make the analysis more meaningful. More
information on Instance IDs can be found on the Firebase website: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy/manage-iids
By using GetSorted, you therefor also consent to the Firebase privacy policy linked here: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
- The information collected through Firebase will further be analyzed, used and published for scientific
purposes. I.e., GetSorted will use and analyze this usage information for a bachelor theses on gamification
at Vienna University of Technology.
By using GetSorted and providing your information, you authorize us to collect, use, and store your information
outside of the European Union (e.g. Firebase Servers).
Information may be processed, stored, and used outside of the country in which you are located. Data privacy
laws vary across jurisdictions, and different laws may be applicable to your data depending on where it is
processed, stored, or used.
