Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2, 2026

This English text is a translation provided for convenience. The Japanese version is the authoritative and controlling version; in the event of any discrepancy, the Japanese version prevails.

KARYUDO LLC (the "Company") establishes this Privacy Policy (the "Policy") regarding the handling of users' personal information and data in the mobile application "PosePause" (the "App").

In short: The App's camera video itself is never transmitted, recorded, or stored outside your device. Only the numerical pose data derived from the video may, in anonymized form, be used to improve the service.

1. Handling of Camera and Pose Data

The App uses camera access to judge your exercise posture.
The video captured by the camera (images and footage showing your face and body) is processed in real time on your device only; it is never transmitted to the Company's or any third party's servers, and it is not recorded or stored. Accordingly, the Company neither obtains nor views your video.
The pose (skeletal landmark) data extracted from the video is numerical information such as coordinates. To improve judgment accuracy and features, the Company may obtain and analyze this numerical information in a form that cannot identify individuals (anonymized/pseudonymized). This numerical information cannot be used to reconstruct the video or your face.
Collection of numerical pose data is limited to the purpose of improving the service and is not used for advertising.

2. Screen Time-Related Information

The App uses iOS Screen Time (Family Controls) or the corresponding app-usage management features on Android to restrict use of the apps you select. The selection of restricted apps and their usage status are managed on your device by Apple's or Google's frameworks, and the Company does not obtain their contents.

3. Information We Collect

The App may collect the following information:

Exercise records, in-app settings, points, and the like: In principle these are stored encrypted on your device. They may be subject to iCloud backup and cross-device synchronization.
Purchase and billing information: The status of subscription purchases (whether purchased, plan, renewal status, and so on). This is processed through Apple, Google, and the billing infrastructure provider (RevenueCat, Inc.). The Company does not obtain payment information such as credit card numbers.
Numerical pose data: To improve judgment accuracy, the Company may obtain and analyze the numerical skeletal-landmark information derived from the video in a form that cannot identify individuals (the video itself is not included).
Usage and diagnostic information: To fix defects and improve the service, the Company may collect anonymized or pseudonymized usage statistics and crash information.

4. Purposes of Use

The Company uses the information collected for the following purposes:

providing the App's features and unlocking paid features;
addressing defects and improving quality and features;
responding to inquiries.

5. Provision to Third Parties and Outsourcing

Except as required by law, the Company does not sell or provide your personal information to third parties. In providing the App, the Company uses the services of the following companies:

Apple Inc. (App Store, billing, and Screen Time infrastructure)
Google LLC (Google Play, billing, and app-usage management infrastructure)
RevenueCat, Inc. (management of subscription status)

These companies handle information in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

6. Data Storage and Security

Important data stored on your device, such as exercise records and economic values (points, time), is protected by encryption (AES-GCM). However, complete security cannot be guaranteed for data storage over the internet or on the device.

7. Data Retention Period

Data stored on your device (exercise records, settings, points, and the like) is retained on the device until you uninstall the App or delete it within the App. Billing information is retained by Apple, Google, and RevenueCat under their respective policies. Anonymized or pseudonymized data the Company collects to improve the service is not retained beyond the period necessary for that purpose.

8. Your Rights

You can delete the data stored on your device by uninstalling the App. You can manage billing information from your Apple ID or Google account settings. If you wish to request disclosure, correction, deletion, or suspension of use of information about you, please contact us at the address below.

9. International Data Transfers

Apple Inc., Google LLC, and RevenueCat, Inc., which the App uses, are based outside Japan, including in the United States, and information relating to billing and subscription-status management may be processed outside Japan. By agreeing to this Policy, you consent to such transfers abroad. These companies implement appropriate protective measures in accordance with applicable laws.

10. Compliance with Laws of Various Countries and Regions

The Company complies with Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI). For residents of the European Economic Area (EEA) and similar regions, it respects the rights under the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)—such as access, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, and data portability—to the extent applicable. For residents of California, USA, it respects the rights under the CCPA/CPRA. The Company does not sell your personal information in exchange for monetary consideration.

11. Sharing Information with Apple and Google (Refund Requests)

If you request a refund for a subscription, Apple or Google may ask the Company to provide information about your app usage for the purpose of reviewing the refund. The Company may comply to the extent necessary to determine whether a refund is warranted.

12. Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under the age set by each country or region). Minors should use the App with the consent of a guardian.

13. Changes to This Policy

The Company may change this Policy as necessary. The revised content takes effect when posted on this page.
