Use of Advertising Services with Free VPN Products

However, as with any online advertising service, the entities will have access to the information associated with ad delivery such as which website or app the ad was delivered to, and certain device-specific information.
To display ads in our apps, we use third party software development kits (SDKs), which consist of software code provided by a third party that is embedded in our apps.
These SDKs may collect the following information from your device or use: Device or mobile advertising identifiers IP address, which may reveal your approximate geographic location as determined by your carrier. However, when using the VPN service, this may replace your actual location with an alternative geographic location. Device-specific information such as make, model, OS version, language, time zone, and other information.
We may use Google AdMob SDks to serve in-app advertisements. While we do not collect any personal information ourselves, AdMob may collect device information and use advertising identifiers to show personalized or non-personalized ads depending on your settings and consents.
AdMob may collect:
§ Device information (e.g., device model, OS version)
§ IP address (for location targeting)
§ Advertising ID (to serve relevant ads)
§ App usage data (e.g., frequency and duration of sessions)
You can manage or opt out of personalized ads by adjusting your Google ad settings or device settings.
