Last Updated: 11.08.2025

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) describes how useGulin (or stylized as useGulin();), published by Andrei Gulin, Individual Entrepreneur (“we,” “our,” “us”), collects, uses, and protects your personal information across all of our products and services (collectively, the “Services”).

This Policy applies to all Services unless a specific Service provides its own privacy policy (“App-Specific Policy”). In the event of a conflict between this Policy and an App-Specific Policy, the App-Specific Policy will prevail for that Service. If an App-Specific Policy is silent on a matter covered in this Policy, the relevant provisions of this Policy apply.

2. Scope and App-Specific Policies

This umbrella Policy covers all Services offered under the Gulinio trade name. Each Service may have its own App-Specific Policy linked below:

All service providers are bound by contractual confidentiality and data protection obligations.

We are based in Armenia. Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence, including countries that may have different data protection laws. Where required, we implement safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms.

Parents or guardians who believe that their child has provided us with personal information should contact us at support@gulin.io.

10. Security Measures

We use commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Some Services may integrate third-party tools (e.g., payment processors, analytics providers). Your use of these tools is subject to the third party’s own privacy policy and terms.
