Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 28, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how MustHaveApps ("we", "us") collects, uses and shares information when you visit musthaveapps.cc (the "Site"), submit an app idea, or use apps we publish ("Apps"). By using the Site or our Apps you agree to this policy.
1. Information we collect
- Information you give us: your name, email address, selected plan and the app idea you submit through the Site form or by email.
- Payment information: if you purchase a plan, payments are handled by a third-party payment processor. We do not store full card numbers; we receive confirmation of payment and limited details (such as name, email and amount).
- Technical information: like most websites, our hosting provider (Cloudflare) may process IP address, browser type, device information and pages requested for security, performance and delivery.
- Communications: messages you send us and our replies.
- App data: information handled inside each App is described in that App's own privacy notice on its Google Play listing. Apps we build collect only what is needed for their function.
2. How we use information
- To review, respond to and build the app ideas you submit.
- To process purchases, track ownership shares, calculate and pay revenue-share payouts, and send revenue reports.
- To communicate with you about your account, purchases, and updates.
- To secure, maintain and improve the Site and Apps, and prevent fraud or abuse.
- To comply with legal, tax and accounting obligations.
3. Legal bases (EEA/UK users)
Where GDPR applies, we rely on: performance of a contract (processing your purchase and payouts), legitimate interests (operating and securing the Site), legal obligation (tax and accounting) and consent (where we ask for it, which you may withdraw at any time).
4. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with:
- Service providers that help us operate (hosting, email, payment processing, payout and analytics tools), under obligations to protect it;
- Other app owners, only to the extent needed for transparent revenue reporting, and then limited to your chosen display name or credit, not your email;
- Authorities or advisers when required by law or to protect rights, safety and security;
- A successor in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, with notice to you.
5. Cookies and analytics
The Site does not currently use advertising cookies. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which may receive your IP address. If we add analytics or cookies, we will update this policy and, where required, ask for consent.
6. Data retention
We keep personal information as long as needed for the purposes above. Purchase, ownership and payout records are kept for as long as you hold a revenue share and for the period required by tax and accounting law afterwards. Unpurchased idea submissions may be deleted on request.
7. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, GDPR or the CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal information, object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent, and opt out of sale or sharing (we do neither). To exercise these rights, email hello@musthaveapps.cc, or follow the steps on our Delete Your Data page. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
8. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, but no system is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International transfers
We are based in India, and we and our providers may process data in India and other countries, including the United States. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
10. Children
The Site and plans are not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
11. Third-party links and stores
The Site and Apps may link to third-party services such as Google Play. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above shows the latest version; material changes will be notified by email or on the Site.
