Centi Privacy Policy

Introduction

Centi keeps your child’s growth data on your device. We do not run servers that receive it, and we never see it.

This policy explains how the Centi app for Android and iOS (“Centi”, “the app”) handles information. Centi is published by RBSoft (“we”, “us”). RBSoft is responsible for the processing described here as the data controller.

At a glance:

  • Child profiles and measurements are stored only on your device.
  • We use Google services for app analytics (Firebase Analytics) and advertising (Google AdMob). These receive device and usage data, not your child’s details.
  • In the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK and Switzerland, we ask for your consent before ads are personalised. You can change your choice at any time in Settings.
  • We do not sell your personal information.
  • Centi is meant for parents and caregivers, not for children to use.

Information stored on your device

Everything you enter about your child stays in a database on your device. It is not sent to us or to anyone else.

What Details
Child profile Name, gender, due date, date and time of birth, birth weight, birth length and head circumference
Measurements Weight, height and head circumference, with the date and time of each entry
Settings Measurement units (metric or imperial) and reminder preferences

Export and import. You can export measurements as a CSV file and import a CSV file. You choose where the exported file goes. Once you save or share it, it is outside the app and outside our control.

Device backups. Your phone’s own backup can include Centi’s data. On Android this is Google’s backup to your Google account. On iOS it is an iCloud or computer backup. These backups are run by Google or Apple under your device settings, not by us.

Centi does not ask you to create an account.

Information processed by third-party services

Centi uses two Google services that receive device and usage data. Neither receives your child’s name, birth details or measurements.

Service Provider What it receives Why we use it
Firebase Analytics Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC An app instance ID; device model, operating system and app version; language; approximate country or region (derived from your IP address); first launch, sessions, time in the app and screens viewed; on Android, the advertising ID where your settings allow it To understand how the app is used and to improve it
Google AdMob, with Google’s User Messaging Platform Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC Device identifiers (such as the advertising ID where allowed), IP address, device and app information, ad views and clicks, and your consent choices To show ads that keep Centi free, and to record your ad consent

Google processes this information under its own policies:

Centi is free and shows ads from Google AdMob. Where the law requires it, we ask for your consent before ads use your data.

  • EEA, UK and Switzerland. On first launch, Google’s consent form asks whether ads may be personalised. You can change your choice at any time in Settings > Privacy > Ad privacy options. If you decline, you may still see non-personalised ads.
  • Other regions. Ads may be personalised based on your device’s advertising ID. You can reset or delete the advertising ID, or opt out of ad personalisation, in your device settings.
  • iOS. Centi does not ask for Apple’s App Tracking Transparency permission, so it cannot access your device’s advertising identifier (IDFA).

Ads are never based on the information you enter about your child.

Permissions the app uses

Centi asks only for what reminders, ads and analytics need. It does not access your contacts, photos, camera, microphone or precise location.

Permission Platform Why
Notifications Android, iOS To show the measurement reminders you set
Run at startup, keep awake Android To restore your reminders after the phone restarts
Internet and network state Android To load ads and send analytics data
Advertising ID Android Added by the Google AdMob SDK, for ads as described above

CSV export and import use the system file picker. Centi sees only the file you choose.

If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or its UK and Swiss equivalents apply. We rely on these legal bases:

Processing Legal basis
Personalised ads Your consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)), which you can withdraw at any time
Non-personalised ads Our legitimate interest in funding a free app (Art. 6(1)(f))
App analytics Our legitimate interest in understanding and improving the app (Art. 6(1)(f))
Recording your consent choices Compliance with our legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(c))

The child profiles and measurements you enter never reach us, so we do not process them.

Data retention and deletion

You control the data on your device and can delete it at any time.

  • Children and measurements. Kept until you delete a child or a measurement in the app, clear the app’s data, or uninstall Centi. Deleting the app also deletes its database, apart from copies in device backups or files you exported.
  • Analytics data. Kept by Google for up to 14 months, then deleted. Reinstalling the app creates a new app instance ID, so new data is not linked to old data.
  • Advertising data. Kept by Google under the Google Privacy Policy.
  • Your consent choice. Stored on your device until you change it or uninstall the app.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you have these rights over your personal data:

  • Access a copy of it
  • Correct it
  • Delete it
  • Restrict or object to its processing, including analytics based on our legitimate interests
  • Receive it in a portable format
  • Withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting earlier processing
  • Complain to the data protection authority where you live or work

You can exercise most of these yourself: edit or delete data in the app, export it as CSV, and change your ad choice in Settings. For anything else, contact us. We have no account linked to you, so we may need details from your device to find the data Google holds for you.

Children’s privacy

Centi is for adults: parents and caregivers who record their own child’s growth. It is not directed at children, and children should not use it.

The information you enter about your child stays on your device and is never sent to us, to Google or to advertisers. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has used Centi and that we hold data about them, contact us and we will delete it.

Security and international transfers

Your child’s data is as secure as your device. Use a screen lock, and keep exported CSV files somewhere only you can reach.

Data sent to Google travels over encrypted connections. Google may process it outside your country, including in the United States. For transfers from the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, Google relies on the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and its extensions, and on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

Changes to this policy

We will update this policy when the app’s data practices change, for example when we add in-app purchases. The new version will be posted at this address with a new effective date. If a change is significant, we will also tell you in the app.

Effective date: 26 October 2026
