Privacy Policy
Effective date: 1 November 2026
This policy explains what information SmartkitStudio’s website and apps, including GarageBook, use and why. SmartkitStudio is operated by Hj Kairulazhar Hj Rosli, Brunei Darussalam. Contact: support@smartkitstudio.app.
1. Where your app data is kept
Our apps are built so that your own records stay with you. Apps that sign in with Google keep your data in your own Google Drive, and ask Google for permission to see and manage only the files they create. They cannot see any other files in your Drive, and we do not keep a copy of those records on our servers. Section 11 explains what each app saves.
2. What we do store
- Your name and email, from your Google account or your account on this website, to identify you and link you to your purchases. If you register on this website we also keep the location and languages you give us.
- Plans and purchases: what you bought, when it starts and ends, license keys and credit balances.
- AI usage: the date, which AI feature was used, its credit cost and its processing cost. We don’t keep the content of your AI requests.
- Payment records from Paddle: order number, product and amount. Paddle handles your card or payment details; we never see them.
3. How AI features work
When you use an AI feature in one of our apps, the information needed for that request is sent from your browser through our server to our AI provider, Evolink, which uses AI models from Google and Anthropic to produce the answer. Our server passes the request on and returns the result; it does not keep a copy. AI features run only when you use them, unless an app’s section below says otherwise.
4. Use of Google user data
Our apps’ use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We use Google data only to provide each app’s features to you. We don’t sell it, use it for advertising, or let people read it, except with your permission, for security, or where required by law.
5. Who we share information with
- Google, for sign-in and to store your records in your Drive.
- Paddle, our reseller, to process payments.
- Evolink and its model providers, only for AI requests you make.
- Namecheap, our hosting provider, which runs our servers and this website.
We don’t sell your information.
6. Cookies and browser storage
This website uses cookies to keep you signed in, and remembers small choices on your device, such as the currency you view prices in. Our apps store small settings in your browser, such as theme, language and unsent drafts. We don’t use advertising cookies. The website loads fonts from Google Fonts and flag images from flagcdn.com, which receive your device’s internet address when they send these files.
7. How long we keep information
We keep your account and purchase details while you use our apps, and payment records as long as the law requires. Ask us to delete your account at any time.
8. Your choices
- View, export or delete records an app keeps in your Google Drive at any time.
- Remove an app’s access in your Google Account under Security, then Third-party apps and services.
- Email support@smartkitstudio.app to see or delete the account details we hold.
9. Children
Our apps are not intended for children under 13.
10. Changes
We may update this policy. We will post the new version here with a new effective date.
11. App-specific information
GarageBook
When you sign in, GarageBook asks Google for permission to see and manage only the files it creates. It creates a GarageBook Sheet and a photos folder in your Google Drive. Your vehicles, logs, receipts, photos and captions are saved there and are read directly by the app in your browser. We do not store these records on our servers, and GarageBook cannot see any other files in your Drive.
When you use an AI helper, the information needed for that request, for example a receipt photo, a vehicle's service history or your description of a problem, is sent to our AI provider as described in section 3. Occasional feed captions use only the facts of the record shown.
