This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Ethiopian Traffic Signs mobile application.
1. Information We Collect
We Do Not Directly Collect Personal Information
We do not directly collect, store, or maintain personal information from users.
The App does not require:
Account registration
Login
Name
Email address
Phone number
Home address
Contacts
Photos
Precise location
Payment information
Government identification
Driving licence information
We do not operate a user account system or maintain a database of user profiles.
2. App Usage Data
The core features of Ethiopian Traffic Signs are designed to function without requiring users to provide personal information to us.
We do not intentionally collect or store information about:
Traffic signs viewed
Quiz answers
Learning progress
App searches
User preferences
unless a future version of the App specifically introduces such functionality and updates this Privacy Policy accordingly.
3. Advertising and Google AdMob
The App may use Google AdMob to display advertisements.
Although we do not directly collect or maintain users' personal information, third-party advertising services such as Google AdMob may automatically process certain information when advertisements are displayed.
Depending on the user's device, location, privacy settings, consent choices, and the AdMob configuration, this information may include:
Device or advertising identifiers
IP address
Approximate location derived from technical information
Device information
Advertising interaction information
Diagnostics
Information used for advertising, fraud prevention, measurement, and service operation
This information may be processed by Google and its advertising partners according to their own privacy policies and applicable legal requirements.
We do not intentionally send personal information such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, or other user-identifying information to AdMob.
Advertising data processing performed by Google or other advertising partners is separate from our own direct data practices.
4. Personalized Advertising
Depending on applicable laws, your location, device settings, consent choices, and advertising configuration, advertisements displayed through the App may be personalized or non-personalized.
Where required, appropriate consent mechanisms may be used for advertising and privacy preferences.
You may also be able to manage advertising preferences through your Android device settings or Google account settings, where available.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, trade, or directly share users' personal information because we do not intentionally collect or maintain such information.
However, third-party services integrated into the App, including Google AdMob, may independently process technical and advertising-related information as necessary to provide their services.
We do not control the independent data practices of third-party service providers.
6. Data Retention Policy
Data Controlled by Us
We do not maintain a remote server or database containing user accounts or personal information.
Because we do not directly collect or store personal information, there is generally no personal data retained on our servers.
Local App Data
The App may temporarily use device storage, memory, or application preferences to provide functionality and improve the user experience.
Any locally stored information remains on the user's device and may be removed by:
Clearing the App's data through Android settings
Clearing the App's cache
Uninstalling the App
We do not have access to locally stored information on your device.
Third-Party Data Retention
Google AdMob and other third-party services may retain information according to their own privacy policies, legal obligations, security requirements, and service configurations.
We do not control the retention periods used by these third-party providers.
7. Data Deletion Policy
Because we do not create user accounts or maintain a server-side database of users' personal information, there is generally no personal data held by us that requires deletion from our servers.
How to Delete Local App Data
You can delete locally stored App data at any time by:
Opening your Android device's Settings
Selecting Apps

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.
If you believe that personal information has been provided to us by a child, please contact us so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action.

Our privacy-focused approach includes:
No mandatory account registration
No direct collection of personal information
No user profile database
No intentional collection of contacts
No intentional collection of photos
No intentional collection of precise location
No intentional sale of user data
However, no application or electronic system can guarantee absolute security.
10. Permissions
