Privacy policy

Effective September 30, 2026 · BatchCove 1.0.0 · ApexNode

BatchCove keeps your work on your device. The app has no internet permission, advertising SDK, analytics SDK, sign-in system or subscription.

Information stored on your device

Recipes, ingredient amounts, preparation checks, shopping plans, notes and costs remain in the app’s private device storage. ApexNode does not receive or remotely access this app data. You control what you enter, edit, export and delete.

Files, backups and sharing

The app uses Android’s document picker to access only files you select or destinations you choose. No broad storage, camera, microphone, location, contact, notification or exact-alarm permission is requested. Recipe scaling is arithmetic based on the amounts and units you enter. Ingredient costs are estimates from your entries. The app does not assess food safety, allergens or nutrition, or automatically adjust cooking time and temperature.

ZIP backups preserve editable app data. PDF and CSV exports are readable reports. Restoring a backup adds independent copies to the existing library. Files you export or share are handled by your chosen file provider or receiving app, under that provider’s privacy policy. Exported backups are not encrypted by BatchCove; store them in a location you trust.

Retention and deletion

You can delete individual entries in the app. Android’s Clear storage or uninstall removes the app’s private data, including any retained recovery files. Exported or shared copies remain wherever you saved or sent them and must be deleted there separately. Automatic Android cloud backup and device-transfer backup are disabled; export a ZIP backup before switching phones or uninstalling.

Support messages

If you email support, your email provider and ours process that message. We receive the address and content you choose to send and use them to respond and resolve the issue. Send only the information needed for support; never send passwords or private signing keys. You can ask us to delete a support conversation, subject to retention needed to resolve the request or comply with applicable obligations.

Purchases

The planned Google Play edition uses a single upfront purchase. Google Play processes payment and manages store licensing and download records under Google’s policies. BatchCove does not receive payment-card details and does not use in-app purchases.

Children

BatchCove is intended for general adult use and is not specifically directed to children. The app does not collect personal information from users.

Support

Email apexnode.dev@gmail.com.

Include the app version, Android version and the steps that caused the problem. Your local data cannot be retrieved by support, so keep a current ZIP backup.

Lost data? Use Help → Restore a backup. If the app reports damaged data, export its recovery copy before clearing storage. PDF/CSV reports cannot be restored as editable app data.
