Otter Surf: Fast Web Browser ("Otter Surf," "we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use the Otter Surf mobile application (the "App").
By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1.1 Information You Provide Otter Surf does not require account registration and does not collect personal information such as your name, email address, or phone number unless you voluntarily contact us for support.
1.2 Automatically Collected Information We may collect limited, non-personal information automatically to ensure the App functions properly, including:
Device type, model, and operating system version
App version and usage statistics
Crash logs and performance data
Anonymous advertising identifiers (e.g., GAID/IDFA where permitted)
Approximate location (derived from IP address, not GPS) for ad targeting and analytics
1.3 User Content and Browsing Data Otter Surf does not collect, store, or transmit your browsing history, bookmarks, downloaded files, or web cache to our servers. All such content is stored locally on your device and remains completely under your control. If you utilize built-in AI features (if applicable), prompts or inputs may be processed via third-party AI providers (see Section 3).
We use the collected information to:
Improve app functionality and browser performance
Fix bugs, crashes, and technical issues
Analyze usage trends to enhance the user experience
Display relevant, non-intrusive advertising
Comply with legal obligations
Note: We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
The App may use third-party services such as advertising networks, analytics tools, and AI providers. These services may collect data in accordance with their own privacy policies. Our trusted partners include:
Analytics & Attribution: Firebase Analytics & Crashlytics, AppsFlyer, Adjust
Advertising Networks: Google AdMob, Meta Audience Network, Mintegral, Pangle (ByteDance)
AI Providers: Third-party AI providers (e.g., OpenAI, Replicate, GetImg) for specific in-app AI features, where applicable.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services. We highly recommend reviewing their respective privacy policies.
We retain non-personal usage and crash data for up to 24 months for analytics purposes, after which it is automatically aggregated or deleted. Any browsing data, media, or content processed by the App is stored only on your device and is not retained by us.
Some third-party services (e.g., Google, Meta, AI providers) may process data in countries outside your country of residence, including the United States. By using the App, you consent to such transfers. Where required, these providers rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent mechanisms for secure cross-border data transfer.
We implement reasonable technical and organizational security measures to protect the limited information collected through the App. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. Reminder: Your browsing data and downloaded files remain stored only on your device. Otter Surf does not upload or back up your browsing data to our servers.
Otter Surf is not intended for children under the age of 13 (or 16 in the EEA, where applicable). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we discover that a child has provided personal information, we will delete it promptly. Parents or guardians may contact us using the details in Section 11 to request a review or deletion.
