Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 13, 2025

Have questions about this Privacy Policy? Reach out to us at: contact@arcticsgroup.com.

1.⁠ ⁠Welcome to Geolio!

This Privacy Policy explains how Geolio, a geography-learning app, handles your data. We’re published by ARCTICS GROUP, a French company based at 21 Boulevard Delessert, 75016 Paris. We’re committed to protecting your privacy and complying with laws like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2.⁠ ⁠What Data We Collect

Right now, we keep things minimal:

Anonymized Data: Stats like app downloads, usage patterns, and lesson progress to help us improve Geolio. No personal details here!

Firebase Authentication: If you sign in, we use Firebase to securely manage your email address.

Learning Data: Your progress in geography lessons (e.g., quiz scores, completed maps), stored temporarily to make the app work.

In the future, we might collect more (like your name or game preferences) to add cool features. If that happens, we’ll let you know and ask for your permission first.

3.⁠ ⁠Your Consent

By using Geolio, you’re okay with us collecting anonymized data as described. If we ever need personal info, we’ll ask you directly in the app. You can always change your mind—email us at contact@arcticsgroup.com or check the app settings to opt out or manage your data.

4.⁠ ⁠Sharing Your Data

We don’t share personal data with anyone except:

Firebase: They help us with sign-ins, analytics, and storing lesson progress. They follow GDPR and keep your info safe.

If we team up with other partners later (e.g., for payments or extra features), we’ll tell you and ensure they meet our privacy standards.

5.⁠ ⁠Keeping Your Data Safe

We use:

Firebase’s encryption to protect data while it’s moving or stored.

Regular checks to keep everything secure.

Only our team accesses what’s needed to run Geolio, and we don’t mess around with your info.

6.⁠ ⁠Cookies and Tracking

The Geolio app uses Firebase Analytics to see how you’re enjoying it (e.g., which continents you’re mastering). If we have a website for Geolio, it might use cookies for basic analytics—you can manage those in your browser.

7.⁠ ⁠Kids and Geolio

Geolio is for everyone, but we take extra care with users under 13. We don’t knowingly collect personal data from kids without parental consent, in line with laws like GDPR and COPPA (U.S.). If you’re a parent with concerns, email us!

8.⁠ ⁠Your GDPR Rights

You’re in control of your data. You can:

See what we’ve got (Right of Access).

Fix mistakes (Right to Rectification).

Delete your info (Right to Erasure).

Take your data elsewhere (Right to Portability).

Limit or stop us using it (Right to Restrict/Object).

Email us at contact@arcticsgroup.com to use these rights—we’ll reply within 30 days.

9.⁠ ⁠Updates to This Policy

We might tweak this policy as Geolio grows. If we do, we’ll notify you in the app or on our site at least 30 days before changes kick in.
