Furusato Collection — Return-Gift Log (the "App")
Issued by: Studio Yourmini (the "Developer") Last updated: July 20, 2026
The Developer respects your privacy and handles personal and device information under the policy below. In principle, the App does not collect information that identifies you personally (name, email, phone number, etc.). This policy applies to both the iOS and Android versions.
The following information you enter or register in the App is saved only in the App's dedicated area on your device.
Information about furusato-nozei donations and return gifts (municipality, prefecture, donation amount, donation date, gift name, gift type, expected shipping date, arrival status, target year, notes, photos, etc.) / input values used to estimate your donation limit, such as income and family situation / notification and display settings and other app settings / attached photos (images of gifts, thank-you letters, etc.).
This data is never sent to an external server, and there is no cloud sync. The Developer cannot view or obtain it.
The App is free and ad-supported, delivering ads via Google AdMob provided by Google LLC. AdMob may obtain: the advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS / Advertising ID on Android, both resettable), IP address, device information (OS version, model, screen size, etc.), an approximate location (country/region level from the IP address), and ad clicks/impressions.
On iOS, the App may ask for tracking permission via App Tracking Transparency (ATT). If you decline, you simply see non-personalized ads and can keep using the app. You can reset or opt out of personalization under iOS "Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking / Apple Advertising," or Android "Settings > Privacy > Ads."
This information is handled per Google's privacy policy — see the Google Privacy Policy and AdMob data handling.
The App uses the following permissions only for the stated purposes (names vary by OS). Core features work even if you decline.
| Permission | Purpose | Optional? |
|---|---|---|
| Camera | To photograph return gifts or thank-you letters | Optional (can decline) |
| Photo library (photos & videos) | To choose photos from your gallery | Optional (can decline) |
| Notifications | To remind you of gift shipping schedules, etc. | Optional (can decline) |
| Internet (network) | Needed to show ads | Required |
Photos you attach are saved in the App's dedicated directory on your device. The App never uploads, shares, or analyzes these photos. All photo data is deleted on uninstall.
All App data is stored on your device and is not transmitted externally. You can delete all donation/gift data from "Delete data" in Settings. Uninstalling removes all app data, including photo files. Files you export with the backup feature are saved to a location you choose (Google Drive, iCloud Drive, a local folder, etc.); the Developer does not access these files. Please keep backups at your own responsibility.
The App is not intended for children under 13. Because furusato-nozei is an adult scheme premised on income- and residence-tax deductions, the target age is 13 or older. The App has no social features for interacting with other users. Children under 13 should use it only with a guardian's consent.
Except as required by law, the Developer does not sell or provide your information to third parties. Information obtained by Google AdMob is subject to Google's privacy policy.
This policy may be revised without notice. For material changes we will notify you in the App or in the store listing. The latest version is at (https://studioyourmini.com/en/hometown-tax-donation/privacy/).
