5. Storage and synchronization

Based on the current application behavior, some information may be stored locally on the user's device and some may be synchronized with backend services so content can persist across sessions or devices. Local storage may include koi records, photos, settings, and session-related data.

Koi Worth does not sell personal information. Information may be shared only when reasonably necessary to operate the service, comply with legal obligations, protect rights and security, or work with service providers that support hosting, storage, authentication, or app functionality, including OpenAI for image analysis features.
