Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2026
Overview
Namey is a baby name discovery app built with your privacy in mind. We collect minimal data, store your preferences locally on your device, and never sell or share your personal information.
Information We Collect
Local Storage
The following data is stored locally on your device:
- Your name preferences (liked, loved, and skipped names)
- App settings (language, filters)
- The baby name database (included with the app)
This data never leaves your device unless you use the partner sync feature. Uninstalling the app removes all local data.
Partner Sync Feature
If you choose to pair with a partner to find matching names, the following data is stored in our cloud service (Google Firebase):
- An anonymous user identifier (no email, name, or personal info)
- A randomly generated invite code for pairing
- Your name preferences (which names you liked or loved)
Important: Partner sync uses anonymous authentication. We do not require or collect your name, email address, phone number, or any personal information. The anonymous identifier cannot be traced back to you.
Crash Reporting
We use Firebase Crashlytics to collect anonymous crash reports. This helps us identify and fix bugs. Crash reports contain:
- Device type and operating system version
- App version
- Technical crash information (stack traces)
Crash reports do not contain your name preferences, personal information, or any data you've entered in the app.
What We Don't Do
- We do not sell your data
- We do not show advertisements
- We do not track your behavior or create user profiles
- We do not share your information with third parties for marketing
- We do not require account creation or personal information
- We do not collect your location
- We do not access your contacts, photos, or other device data
Data Retention
Local data is stored on your device and removed when you uninstall the app. Cloud data from partner sync is retained only while your pairing is active. Inactive pairings are automatically cleaned up.
Children's Privacy
Namey does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. The app does not require any personal information to function.
Third-Party Services
Namey uses the following third-party services:
- Google Firebase (Authentication, Firestore, Crashlytics) — Firebase Privacy Policy
