Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
TCG Browser ("we", "us") helps you scan, catalogue, and value your trading card collection. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. It applies to the TCG Browser website and the iOS and Android apps.
Information we collect
- Account details. Your email address and authentication credentials, handled by our authentication provider (Supabase). If you sign in with Apple or Google, we receive the email associated with that sign-in.
- Collection data. The cards, sets, and binders you save, along with counts and any notes you add.
- Purchase information. When you subscribe to Pro, the purchase is processed by Apple or Google Play (in the apps) or Stripe (on the web) and reconciled through RevenueCat. We receive your subscription status and a transaction identifier — never your full card or payment details.
- Camera images. When you scan a card, the image is sent to our recognition service to identify the card. Scan images are used to return a match and are not published or sold. A recent sample of scans is kept briefly on our own server so we can diagnose recognitions that go wrong; older ones are deleted automatically as new scans arrive.
- Usage data. Basic, largely anonymous information about how the app is used, to diagnose problems and improve features.
How we use it
To provide and secure your account, save and value your collection, identify scanned cards, process and restore subscriptions, and keep the service working. We do not sell your personal information.
Service providers
We rely on a small number of processors to run the service: Supabase (accounts and database), RevenueCat with Apple, Google Play and Stripe (subscriptions), Umami (cookieless usage analytics), and our own card-recognition and pricing services. Each receives only the data needed for its function.
Data retention & your choices
We keep your account and collection data until you delete it or close your account. You can clear your collection from Settings, and you can delete your account at any time (see below). Deleting your account removes your collection and personal data from our systems, subject to records we must keep for legal or accounting reasons.
Delete your TCG Browser account
- Sign in to TCG Browser in the app or at tcg-browser.com.
- Open Settings and scroll to Danger zone.
- Tap Delete account, type delete, and confirm.
If you cannot sign in, email team@tcg-browser.com from the address on your account and we delete it for you.
Deleted at once: your account (email and user ID), collection, binders, wishlist, settings and subscription status. Kept: a short sample of recent scan images, which is replaced automatically as new scans arrive, and transaction records that Apple, Google Play, Stripe or RevenueCat must keep for legal and accounting reasons. Deleting your account does not cancel a subscription: cancel it first in the App Store, Google Play or Settings → Manage billing.
Children
TCG Browser is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
Card data & affiliation
Card images, names, and market prices are third-party trading-card data shown for reference. TCG Browser is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any trading card publisher.
