How We Protect User Information
We take appropriate measures to protect user personal information from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.
Cookies
Our App does not use cookies directly. However, third-party services (Firebase, Google Admob, Google Play Services, Google Analytics) integrated with the app may use cookies to collect information to improve their services. You can either accept or reject these cookies. Refusing cookies may impact your ability to use some features.
Service Providers
We may employ third-party companies or individuals to help us:
Provide and facilitate the Service
Perform service-related tasks
Analyze how the Service is used
These third-party providers may have access to user information but are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
Opt-Out Rights
To completely stop the application's collection of your personal information, the most effective method is to uninstall it from your device. This process will remove the application and its associated data from your system. Users can perform this uninstallation using the standard, built-in features of your mobile device's operating system.
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), users in the European Union have specific rights regarding their personal data. We request explicit consent before collecting or processing your location or other sensitive data. GDPR ensures that users are informed about the purpose of data collection. This consent helps us stay fully compliant and transparent with how we handle user personal information.
If you're a resident of California, we comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). This law gives you:
The right to know what personal data we collect and why
The right to opt out of the sharing of user personal data (we do not sell any user data)
We display a CCPA-compliant consent screen to inform you of your rights and let you control your data choices.
Children's Privacy
We understand the importance of protecting children’s privacy. While our app is not specifically targeted at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect the user's personal information or data with user consent. We are committed to providing a safe and respectful environment for all users and specifically for the childrens. Children are particularly vulnerable when it comes to online data collection. Laws such as the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in the United States, and similar regulations globally, are designed to protect children's personal information. We take these regulations seriously and have implemented measures to ensure compliance. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take the necessary actions.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will post the new Privacy Policy on this page with an updated date. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes.
