Sproutly · plant care, made gentle

Privacy policy

Last updated: 10 September 2026

Sproutly is a plant-care app from VCS. This page explains what information we have about you, why we have it, who else may see it, and how you can ask us to remove it.

Information we have

We only keep what the app needs to look after your plants with you:

• Your email, if you sign in, so we can send you a sign-in code and keep your plants with your account.
• The plants you add: names, rooms, notes, and when you like to be reminded.
• Plant photos you choose to add. They stay private to you. We do not post them for other people.
• A way to reach this phone with a reminder, if you allow notices.
• A rough idea of your area (not your exact street) so we can show outdoor temperature and so ads can be more relevant.
• A number on your phone that helps choose ads in the free app. You can turn this off in your phone’s privacy settings.

We do not ask for your contacts, payment cards, or health records. We do not read your other photos unless you pick one for a plant.

How we use it

We use this information to:

• Keep your plants and notes in the app, including on more than one phone if you sign in.
• Send care reminders you asked for.
• Show a simple outdoor temperature.
• Show ads in the free app.

We do not sell your information.

Who else may receive it

Trusted companies help us run Sproutly: keeping your account safe, sending reminders to your phone, reading outdoor temperature, and showing ads. They may only use what they need for that work.

Ads come from Google. Google may use a number on your phone and a rough idea of your area to choose ads. You can read Google’s privacy policy and how Google uses information for ads.

In some countries you will see a short form that lets you accept or refuse personalized ads. You can open that form again in the app under Settings, then Ad privacy. You can also limit ad personalization in your phone settings.

How long we keep it

We keep your account and plants until you delete them or ask us to. If you sign out or delete your account, we stop sending reminders to that phone. Google keeps ads information under Google’s own rules.

Your choices

• You can use Sproutly without signing in. Signing in is only if you want your plants on another phone.
• Photos and reminders are optional.
• You can turn notices off in your phone settings at any time.
• You can delete your account, as explained below.

Delete your account

In Sproutly, open Settings, tap Delete account, and confirm. We will remove your plants, photos, notes, reminders, and sign-in.

If you cannot open the app, email info@vcs.com.pk from the same address you used to sign in and ask us to delete your account. We will remove it.

Children

Sproutly is meant for adults. We do not knowingly keep information from children under 13. If you believe a child has an account, write to us and we will delete it.
