App Name: Zanist — Kurdish Trivia Bundle ID: com.oumari.zanist Last Updated: April 15, 2026 Contact: mooumari2@gmail.com
Zanist is a daily Kurdish trivia and culture game celebrating Kurdish history, language, music, food, geography, famous figures, and traditions. This Privacy Policy explains what information the app handles, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information. By using Zanist, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
The short version: Zanist is a completely offline-first app. It contains no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no crash reporting, and no tracking of any kind. Nothing you do in the app is sent to us or to any third party. Your streaks, scores, bookmarks, and progress live on your device and nowhere else.
All app data is stored exclusively on your device using Hive, a local key-value database. It is never transmitted to any server — not ours, not anybody else's. This includes:
This data lives in Hive boxes on your device's private app storage. It is not backed up to any cloud service by us, it is not shared with any third party, and it is permanently deleted when you uninstall the app, clear app data, or tap "Reset Progress" inside the app.
The following is included inside the app's binary at install time and loaded locally — it is not fetched from any server:
assets/questions/questions.json)google_fonts package from assets bundled with the app; no runtime network requests are made to Google Fonts serversBecause this content is shipped with the app, Zanist works fully offline on airplane mode, in the subway, or anywhere else without internet.
Zanist does not collect, transmit, or process any of the following:
There is no analytics SDK, no crash reporting SDK, no ad network, and no cloud backend integrated into Zanist. The app makes no network requests to any server during normal use.
The Android app declares the following permissions in its manifest. Declaring a permission does not mean the app actively uses it — it means the permission is available for features the app may offer.
POST_NOTIFICATIONS (Android 13+) — declared for future use. In v1.0, Zanist does not currently request this permission or schedule any notifications. When this feature is enabled in a future version, you will be asked at runtime before any notification is displayed, and you can deny or revoke the permission at any time in your device settings.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED — declared so that, once local reminders are enabled in a future version, they can survive device reboots. Unused in v1.0.On iOS, no special permissions are requested in v1.0. The iOS build is configured to not prompt for notification permissions on first launch.

We do not sell, rent, trade, or share any of this data with advertisers, data brokers, analytics providers, or anyone else. There is no way for us to do so, because none of this data ever leaves your device in the first place.
Zanist is deliberately built without cloud services. The following libraries are used, but they do not transmit any personal data from your device to any third party:
share_plus)When you tap "Share Result" on the Results screen, Zanist:
From that point on, what happens with the image is entirely up to you and the app you choose (Messages, WhatsApp, Instagram, Twitter, etc.). Zanist does not know and cannot control what those apps do with the image. We never receive any information about whom you shared with or whether you shared at all.
url_launcher)When you tap "Privacy Policy" in Settings > About, Zanist asks your operating system to open this document in your default web browser. The request is handled entirely by your device and your browser. Zanist does not track whether or when you open the link.
The app uses the google_fonts Flutter package to render its typography. Font files are bundled with the app at build time and loaded from local assets — no network requests are made to Google Fonts servers at runtime, so Google does not see any information about you through this package.
Package: https://pub.dev/packages/google_fonts
The flutter_local_notifications package is included in the binary for a future daily-reminder feature. In v1.0 it is not actively used — no notifications are scheduled or displayed. This package is purely local: it never communicates with any remote server. When the feature is enabled in a future version, this privacy policy will be updated to reflect the change.
For clarity: Zanist contains no Firebase SDK (no Firestore, no Cloud Storage, no Analytics, no Crashlytics, no Cloud Messaging), no RevenueCat, no Facebook SDK, no AdMob, no Segment, no Amplitude, no Mixpanel, and no other analytics or advertising libraries. The app is genuinely, fully offline.
Zanist v1.0 is free, contains no advertising, and has no in-app purchases, subscriptions, or paywalls. If this changes in a future version, this Privacy Policy will be updated to describe the new payment processing and the parties involved (Apple or Google for store-based purchases).
Zanist is rated for a general audience and is suitable for users of all ages. However, the app is not specifically directed at children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age of digital consent in your country). Because Zanist does not collect any personal information from anyone — adults or children — there is no personal data to protect, store, or delete. If you have concerns about a child's use of the app, please contact us at mooumari2@gmail.com.
Because Zanist stores all data locally on your device and collects nothing, the traditional "data subject rights" (access, portability, deletion, rectification) are effectively in your own hands at all times:
If you have any questions about your data or this policy, contact us at mooumari2@gmail.com.
EU / EEA users (GDPR): Because Zanist does not process personal data within the meaning of Article 4(1) of the GDPR, most GDPR obligations do not apply to your use of the app. If you believe we are processing personal data about you that we shouldn't be, please contact us and we will investigate.
California users (CCPA): Zanist does not sell, share, or disclose personal information, because it does not collect any. You have no data to request, delete, or opt out of.
UK users (UK GDPR / Data Protection Act 2018): The same analysis as the EU GDPR applies — no personal data is processed by the app or its developer.
All data stored locally on your device is protected by your device's built-in security mechanisms: filesystem encryption at rest (enabled by default on modern iOS and Android devices), app sandboxing (so other apps cannot read Zanist's data), and the authentication method you use to unlock your device (passcode, Face ID, Touch ID, fingerprint, pattern, etc.).
Because Zanist makes no network requests and has no server, there are no data-in-transit concerns and no server-side attack surface to worry about.
Zanist does not transfer any data internationally, because no data leaves your device.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time — for example, if a future version of Zanist introduces optional features like cloud sync, push notifications, or community question submissions. When that happens:
Continued use of the app after a material change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
