GMas Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 9, 2026. Last Updated: October 9, 2026.

This Privacy Policy explains how Jigiya Tech, LLC ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you use the GMas mobile application and website (the "Service"), a personal garden diary and AI gardening companion.

What we collect

• Account info: your email address and an optional display name, used to sign you in and secure your data.
• Garden content you create: growing areas, plants, dated logs, notes, and weather/watering entries.
• Photos you choose to attach to logs.
• ZIP code, provided by you, used to look up your location's real forecast from the National Weather Service for frost alerts and the rain forecast heads-up.
• Push notification token, assigned by Apple or Google when you enable notifications, used to deliver frost alerts, the rain forecast, and your weekly brief.
• Subscription and payment information, handled directly by Apple, Google, and RevenueCat, our subscription-management provider. We do not store full card numbers.

We do not collect precise location data, contacts, or device advertising identifiers, and we do not use third-party analytics or tracking tools.

How your data is stored

Your account and content are stored with Google Firebase (Authentication, Cloud Firestore, and Cloud Storage). Access is restricted to your account by security rules: other users cannot read or write your garden. Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS).

Artificial intelligence features

Four features send information to Anthropic's Claude API to generate a response:

• Photo diagnosis: the photo(s) and any symptoms or context you provide.
• Ask GMas: your question and relevant context from your own garden (plants, areas, recent logs) needed to answer it.
• Weekly brief: a summary of your garden's recent activity, used to generate "This Week in Your Garden."
• Season review: your season's logged activity, used to generate the write-up and, for GMas Pro, the season-to-season comparison.

We do not send your email or account identity with these requests beyond what is needed to generate the response. The app asks you to acknowledge this the first time you use any of these features, before anything is sent.

Weather data

Frost alerts and the rain forecast heads-up look up your ZIP code's forecast directly from the National Weather Service (api.weather.gov), a US government service, to check for a real frost/freeze risk or rain in the forecast. Nothing beyond your ZIP code (not your name, email, or account identity) is sent to the National Weather Service.

What we do not do

• We do not sell your personal data.
• We do not show third-party advertising.
• We do not use your garden photos, questions, or logs to train AI models. Content sent to the Claude API is not used by Anthropic to train its models.

Data retention

We keep your account and garden content for as long as your account is active. When you delete an entry in the app, it is removed from your garden; attached photos are removed from storage. When you delete your account from Settings, your account record and all associated content are deleted immediately. Backups and logs, if any, are purged on a rolling basis.

Your choices

• You can edit or delete your entries in the app at any time.
• You can delete your account and all associated data yourself, at any time, from inside the app (Settings › Delete account) or by signing in at thegmas.com/delete-account. Either way it's immediate and permanent: your profile, growing areas, plants, logs, photos, weather and watering entries, supplies, planting plan, and account credentials are all removed. There is no recovery window.
• If you cannot sign in either way, that same page has a request form: we will action verified requests within 30 days of you confirming by email, or you can email support@thegmas.com directly.
• You can request a copy of the data associated with your account by emailing support@thegmas.com.

Children

The GMas is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes

We may update this policy; material changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date above.
