To ensure optimal performance and functionality of our apps, we may collect certain device and network-related details. Depending on your settings, this may include: SDK/API/JS version, Android ID, browser type, internet service provider, IP address, platform information, timestamps, app identifier and version, distribution channel, device identifiers, advertising ID (IDFA/Android), MAC address, IMEI, device brand and model, operating system version, session duration data, language preferences, timezone settings, network type (Wi-Fi, 4G, etc.), storage usage, CPU specifications, and battery level.

ii. Advertising Identifiers

For the purposes of analytics and delivering personalized advertising, we utilize your advertising identifier (Android ID/IDFA). Importantly, this identifier is not linked to sensitive permanent device data such as IMEI or MAC address.

iii. Third-party Services and Analytics

Our applications may incorporate third-party software development kits (SDKs) that could collect limited information including your advertising ID, geographic region, IP address, or language preferences. Examples of such services include Google AdMob, Facebook Audience Network, and Firebase. Please note that any data handled by these third parties is governed by their respective privacy policies.

We also retain information that you voluntarily share with us, such as your email address, responses to surveys, feedback, or any user-generated content (UGC) submitted in accordance with our terms of service.

v. Users in Specific Regions

For users located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland (referred to as "Designated Countries"), we process personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and related regulations, primarily based on the legal basis of contract fulfillment.

3. Data Sharing Practices

We want to emphasize that we do not sell or rent your personal information to any third parties.

Any such sharing is governed by strict contractual agreements to ensure the protection of your information.

4. Data Retention Period

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Once your data is no longer needed for these purposes, we take steps to securely delete or anonymize it.
