Advertising in Our Services
In certain regions, we display ads to our users. These ads are provided by advertisers we have relationships with or third-party advertising networks like Google. To include third-party ads in our apps, we incorporate a software development kit (SDK) containing code from the ad network.
To deliver their services, we provide limited personal data to these third-party advertising networks. For instance, they may collect information through their SDKs, such as your mobile advertising identifier, IP address, and device details, to present you with "personalized" ads (ads they believe are more relevant to you) and measure your response to those ads.
It is important to note that each advertising network collects this information according to their privacy policies. When you see an AdChoices logo on an ad, clicking it allows you to learn more about the ad network, its privacy policy, and opt-out options for personalized advertising. Even if you choose to opt-out from personalized ads, you may still see non-personalized ads.
We kindly request that you do not use ad blockers to support our free services, as it helps us continue providing quality services. However, rest assured that our services will continue to function even if you choose to use ad blockers. Your privacy and user experience remain a priority for us.
Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns about our advertising practices or privacy policy.
