Who operates Amiire
Amiire is operated by Amunzen Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan). The representative is Keisuke Nagakawa. For privacy questions, account deletion, or data deletion requests, contact kay@amunzen.com.
Information we collect
- Account information, such as your sign-in identifier, email address, display name, profile image, and related authentication records.
- Pattern and symbol records, including titles, crochet graph data, editor operations, revisions, snapshots, visibility settings, generated previews, QR or presentation assets, and timestamps.
- Email sharing information. When a maker shares a pattern by email, Amiire uses the email address to find a registered Amiire user and stores the share grant between the maker, the recipient, and the pattern.
- Reader event information for shared pattern pages, such as viewer_open, steps_view, project_start, and qr_scan events, together with pattern and revision IDs, the reader view, source labels, normalized referrer path, browser family, timestamps, and, when a signed-in reader starts a project, the reader account ID.
- Project progress information, such as the source pattern and revision, completed step count, current step index, progress sequence, update timestamps, notes text, and viewing state.
- Operational diagnostics, such as errors, security events, route paths, IDs needed to debug the service, and normalized browser information.
How we use information
- To provide Amiire accounts, pattern editing, sharing, and reader workflows.
- To save patterns, revisions, project progress, notes, and viewing state.
- To show shared works to the audience chosen by the maker.
- To understand whether shared works are opened, viewed as steps, started as projects, or reached through QR links.
- To maintain security, investigate failures, prevent abuse, and improve the product.
How shared works are handled
Makers keep ownership of the works, pattern records, text, and crochet instructions they create. Amiire stores and processes those materials only so the service can host, render, preview, share, revise, duplicate, and read them through the product.
Private works are intended for the maker account. Restricted or email-shared works are shown to the selected registered users. Unlisted or public works may be accessible to people with the link or through public Amiire surfaces. Readers may create their own project progress from a shared work when the product offers that action.
Service providers
Amiire may use hosting, authentication, database, storage, email, diagnostics, and analytics providers to operate the service. These providers process information for Amiire so the product can run.
Cookies and local storage
Amiire and its service providers may use cookies, browser storage, and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember product state, run the editor, protect the service, and record the reader events described above.
Deletion and account closure
To request account closure or deletion of your Amiire data, email kay@amunzen.com from the email address connected to your account, or include enough information for us to verify the request. You can also identify any public or shared pattern URLs that should be removed from access.
We will delete or disable account and product data where reasonably possible. Some records may remain for a limited time in backups, logs, security records, or where retention is required to protect the service or comply with legal obligations.
Retention
Amiire keeps account, pattern, sharing, and project information while your account is active or as needed to provide the service. Deleted items may be soft-deleted before they are permanently removed from active systems.
Children
Amiire is not intended for children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
Changes
We may update this policy as Amiire changes. The updated page will show the latest revision date.
