This Privacy Policy governs the manner in which kksmartapps (referred to as "Developer," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, maintains, and discloses information collected from users (each, a "User") of the Hisense Tv Remote mobile application ("the App").

1. Personal Data Collection and Use

The App's Core Functionality: The App's primary purpose is to function as an infrared (IR) remote. The core features of the App do not collect, transmit, or store any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from its users, such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, or precise geographic location. All IR signal generation occurs locally on your device.

2. Third-Party Services (Advertising and Analytics)

We use third-party services that may collect, use, and share data for advertising, analytics, and stability purposes. Your use of the App constitutes your acceptance of the collection and use of information in relation to these policies.

A. Google AdMob (Advertising)

The App uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. AdMob is a third-party service provided by Google that may collect and process certain data to provide personalized and non-personalized advertising.

• Data Collected by AdMob: This may include, but is not limited to: IP address, device identifiers (such as the Android Advertising ID), device type, operating system information, and user interaction data with the ads (e.g., clicks and impressions).

• Purpose: This data is used to analyze ad effectiveness, prevent fraud, and serve ads relevant to the user's interests.

• Third-Party Disclosure: Data is shared with Google and its advertising partners as part of the AdMob service.

• Opt-Out: Users can generally opt out of personalized advertising by visiting their Google Ad Settings or through their device’s settings (e.g., by resetting the Advertising ID).

B. Firebase Crashlytics (App Stability)

The App uses Google Firebase Crashlytics for crash reporting and stability monitoring.

• Data Collected by Crashlytics: This service automatically collects non-personal data, such as device state information, unique device identifiers, and crash traces (stack traces) when the App encounters an error.

• Purpose: This data is used solely to help the Developer diagnose and fix bugs, ensuring the App functions reliably. This data is not used for advertising.

C. Google Firebase Analytics (App Usage Analysis)

The App uses Google Firebase Analytics to understand app usage, user behavior, and to provide data required for certain AdMob features.

• Data Collected by Analytics: This service automatically collects non-personally identifiable information, which includes:

  • Device or other IDs: The App-Instance ID and, when available, the Android Advertising ID are collected to distinguish unique users and sessions.

  • User Activity/App Interactions: Information about how the user interacts with the app (e.g., button clicks, screen views, session duration, app launch, and operating system) is collected.

  • Technical Data: Basic device information (model, OS version), time zone, and geographic location (at a general city/region level, inferred from IP address) are collected.

• Purpose: This data is used solely for the Developer's analytics, to measure app performance, understand user trends, and improve the App's features and stability.

3. Permissions Used Locally

The App requires minimal permissions, which are used exclusively on your device for the core features.

4. Children’s Privacy

The App is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at the email below, and we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.

5. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to update or change our Privacy Policy at any time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.

6. User Data Deletion Policy

1. Users of the App have the right to request the deletion of data associated with their usage, specifically the Device or other IDs, App interactions, and diagnostics data collected by third-party services (AdMob and Firebase).

2. To submit a data deletion request, please send an email to the contact address listed in the section below with the subject line "Data Deletion Request - Hisense Tv Remote"

3. We will use the respective Google APIs to honor valid data deletion requests. Please note that deleting data associated with an app instance ID may not remove data from aggregated reports or backups.
