Overview
Gyst (“we,” “us,” or “our”) provides a product and warranty vault that helps you capture product details, store warranties and receipts, open manuals and support resources, and manage maintenance reminders.
We collect only what we need to run the service. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your data for third-party advertising or tracking across other companies’ apps or websites.
Information we collect
Depending on how you use Gyst, we may collect:
- Contact info: name, email address, phone number, and physical address you provide in your profile or registration flows.
- Account identifiers: a unique user ID associated with your account.
- User content: product photos, nameplate images, receipts, product details, warranties, manuals links, maintenance notes, and messages you send in product help or feedback / support forms.
- Technical data needed to operate the service: such as authentication session information and basic request metadata processed by our hosting and database providers.
Camera and photo library access are used only when you choose to capture or upload images for product or receipt processing. Device location (GPS) is not required to use Gyst; address fields may be filled with assistance from map/places services when you choose that option.
How we use information
We use collected information to:
- Create and secure your account
- Store and sync your products, warranties, images, and related records
- Provide scanning and extraction assistance (for example, reading text from a nameplate or receipt)
- Show manuals, registration, troubleshooting, and brand support resources you request
- Send or show maintenance / warranty reminders you set
- Respond to feedback and support requests
- Maintain security, prevent abuse, and improve reliability
Primary purpose: App Functionality. We do not use personal data for third-party advertising.
Retention & security
We retain account and product data for as long as your account remains active, or as needed to provide the service and meet legal obligations. You may delete products or request account deletion as described below.
We use industry-standard safeguards such as encrypted transport (HTTPS/TLS) and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; please use a strong password and keep your devices protected.

Gyst is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your region). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
