Privacy and KVKK Notice

TaskGang has no account. On first launch your device generates an anonymous device id; your name, phone number, contacts or location are never asked for or collected. An email address is kept only if you add a recovery email, which is entirely optional.

What our server stores

The server keeps only:

• device id
• nickname and emoji avatar
• country code, time zone, app language and phone type (Android or iOS)
• push notification token
• your gangs and memberships
• your alarm schedules
• your tasks: lists, projects, steps, who added them, who let them go or took them over and who did them (deleted with the task)
• when you last used the app, app crash reports (without device details) and the kind of notifications and emails sent; these logs are deleted after 30 days
• wake records (time, on-time flag)
• XP, badges, streak and gang-point counters
• cheer cards sent within a gang (from whom, to whom, which card); deleted after 30 days
• nicknames, gang names or tasks you report (what and why); deleted after 30 days
• feedback you send from the app (the message and app version), passed to our support address with your recovery email so we can answer; deleted after 30 days, and the copy in our support inbox is kept only as long as we need to answer it
• members you block; kept until you unblock them or delete your data
• an optional username and your public page choices: whether your profile or a list is open on taskgang.app; a username you change is kept for you for 30 days so no one else can take it, then deleted
• an optional recovery email: only if you add one, encrypted, and used only to send the code that brings your data back when you change phones

Never collected

• Name, phone number or contacts — ever.
• Location — location permission is never requested.
• Photos — the photo task matches on your device; no photo ever leaves your phone.

Who sees what

Gang: on the morning board and gang stats, your nickname, emoji, wake time and streak are shown only to that gang’s members.

Public leaderboards (World / Country): only your nickname, emoji, country, XP, level and badges are shown — nothing else is shared. Gang names appear on the public gang leaderboard, with the member count, members’ countries and on-time rate, so keep personal details out of a gang’s name. Your profile and list pages on taskgang.app stay closed unless you open them. If you open your profile, your nickname, emoji, country, level, streaks, badges and the lists you share are visible to anyone and can be found by search engines. A list you share is open only to people with its link, and it names only members whose own profile is open; the items other members add to it (title, quantity, note, done or not) show with the list. You can close them at any time.

Push notifications

Notifications are sent through Google Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) — unavoidable for Android push. The push token is used only to deliver notifications.

Server location

Your data is stored on our DigitalOcean server in the United States. Notifications are delivered through Google and Apple. Visits to the taskgang.app website are counted with Google Analytics only if you accept cookies there; you can take that back under "Cookie settings" at the bottom of the site. Page views on the site are also counted with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies and keeps no personal data. The app does not use Analytics.

Retention

Wake records older than 30 days are deleted automatically every night. Your total XP, level, badge and streak counters are running totals, not records — they are never deleted by this purge.

Deleting my data

"Delete my data" in Settings permanently removes your device id and everything linked to it, including a recovery email, from the server.
