Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 25, 2026

Papia AI ("we," "our," or "us"), operated by Luxer Graphics LLC, is dedicated to providing a high-performance translation engine while maintaining the highest standards of user privacy. This policy outlines our data handling practices.

Executive Summary: Papia AI is an "offline-first" application. We do not require account registration, and we do not collect personal identifiers like your name, email, or physical location. We may collect anonymous, aggregated search data to help us improve the dictionary and preserve the Papiamento language.

1. Data Collection & Usage

A. Dictionary Search Data: While your individual "History" and "Favorites" remain stored locally on your device, Papia AI collects anonymous, aggregated search terms. We analyze which words are searched most frequently to identify gaps in our dictionary and improve accuracy. This data is stripped of all personal identifiers (IP addresses, device IDs) before analysis. We never track who searched for a word, only that a word was searched.

B. User-Generated Sentences: To improve our translation engine, when users utilize AI-powered features for custom translations, the text (English and Papiamento) may be transmitted to our secure servers for database expansion. This data is transmitted anonymously with no personal identifiers attached.

Note: AI-powered custom translation features are planned for future release and not yet available in the current version.

2. Contact and Support Communications

A. Email-Based Error Reporting: Papia AI includes an optional error reporting feature that allows users to report translation errors or request support. When you use this feature, your device's email application opens with a pre-filled message to our support team at support@papiaai.com.

What We Receive:

• Your email address (visible so we can respond)
• The translation details you choose to report
• Any additional information you include in your message

What We Don't Do:

• The app itself does NOT collect or store your email address
• We do not add you to marketing lists without explicit consent
• We do not share your email with third parties
• We do not track your email usage or app behavior

Your Control: This is entirely voluntary. You can review the message and cancel before sending. The email is sent through your standard email app, not collected within Papia AI.

3. Permissions

The application does not request or require access to sensitive device permissions such as Camera, Microphone, Contacts, or GPS Location.

4. Data Security

Since we do not collect personal data, there is no user-identifiable information stored on our servers. For anonymized data transmission (future AI features), we utilize industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption. Email communications are secured through standard email protocols.

5. Third-Party Services

We may utilize third-party AI processors for custom translations (in future updates). These services receive only the raw text provided for translation and do not receive any identifying information regarding the user.

6. Children's Privacy

Papia AI is a general audience reference tool. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13, in compliance with COPPA regulations. If a child uses the error reporting feature, they should have parental consent to send email communications.

7. Data Retention

Dictionary Usage: Anonymous search term frequency data is retained indefinitely for linguistic analysis and dictionary expansion.
Support Emails: Retained for up to 2 years for quality improvement purposes. You may request deletion at any time by contacting support@papiaai.com.

8. Your Rights

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the right to:

• Request deletion of your email communications
• Access information we hold about you
• Object to processing of your data

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@papiaai.com.

9. Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to update this policy to reflect changes in our service. Updates will be posted here at papiaai.com/privacy.html with a revised effective date.
