In the process of providing our Service, we may require you to furnish us with specific personally identifiable information that can be employed to contact or identify you. We collect and process the following types of personal data:

1. User IDs: A unique identifier, or User ID, is created for each user by Firebase Authentication during account creation. This User ID is used to associate data with individual users within our Service. User IDs are stored securely and are only used for the purposes outlined in this policy.

2. Email address: We collect your email address when you authenticate using Firebase Authentication with Apple OAuth2 Login. This is the only personal data we collect during the authentication process.

This device information may be associated with your User ID to help us improve our Service and provide a better user experience by tailoring our Service to the general characteristics of our users' devices.

We use third-party services which may also use this device information:

• Sentry uses device information for diagnostic purposes, helping us identify and resolve technical issues and improve the stability of our Service.

• RevenueCat uses device information to process payment transactions securely.

Please note that these third-party services have their own privacy policies governing their use of data, which we recommend you review.

Any IP addresses in the diagnostic data are scrubbed to ensure your privacy. If you wish, you can opt out of this data collection via the app settings.

Please note, we only collect and process this data with your explicit consent, and in compliance with GitHub's terms and conditions, as well as applicable privacy laws and regulations. If you have concerns about the scope of data access, you have the option to create a fine-grained access token within GitHub. This token allows you to specify and limit the data our Service can access, providing you with greater control over your data privacy.

7. IDE Integration: Our Service offers an optional IDE Integration feature, which allows the Application to connect with your computer. Upon your explicit authorization, this feature will have access to files located within the IDE workspace. This access is necessary to provide certain functionalities of our Service, such as code reading and editing functionality, error checking, and others.
