Privacy Policy for Step Orbit
Effective Date: October 16, 2024
Welcome to Step Orbit! We value your privacy and are committed to ensuring your data is protected while providing a secure and engaging experience. This privacy policy explains how we collect and manage data through our use of Google AdMob and Google Maps, in compliance with Google Play’s guidelines. By using Step Orbit, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.
Data Collection
Step Orbit integrates Google AdMob and Google Maps libraries, which may collect specific data required for their functionality. This information may include:
Location Data: Collected by Google Maps if permission is granted. This allows us to provide location-based services and features within the app.
Advertising Data: Collected by Google AdMob, such as device identifiers, which are used for personalized advertising purposes.
We do not collect personal information such as your name, email, or address directly. All data collected through these libraries is managed by Google in accordance with their privacy policies.
Google Play and Third-Party Services
The app utilizes data provided through Google Play services, such as app performance metrics, usage statistics, and crash reports, to monitor and enhance the user experience. Data collected through Google AdMob and Google Maps is used solely to provide their respective services, and all such information is managed under Google’s terms.
Google AdMob Privacy Policy: For more information on how Google AdMob collects and uses data, you can review their privacy policy here.

Use of Collected Information
Advertising: Google AdMob collects certain information to display personalized and relevant ads based on your device data and interactions. This may include your device’s identifiers and approximate location.
Location-Based Services: With your permission, Google Maps collects your location data to provide map-related features and services within the app. Location permissions can be controlled or revoked through your device settings at any time.
Performance Monitoring: Data collected through Google Play services, such as crash logs, helps us monitor app performance and address any issues to enhance your overall experience.
Children’s Privacy
Step Orbit is designed for users of all ages, including children. However, given the integration of Google AdMob and Google Maps, parents should be aware that these services may collect data as outlined above. We recommend that parents review and manage their children’s app permissions and settings to control access to location services and advertising features. We comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and strive to maintain a safe environment, but parental supervision is encouraged when using the app.
Device Integrity
Step Orbit operates without altering your device’s settings or accessing data beyond what is necessary for the app’s functions. The app only interacts with device settings when permissions are granted for Google Maps’ location services. The integrity and security of your device remain our priority, and any collected data is managed by the third-party services (Google AdMob and Google Maps) under their privacy policies.
Policy Updates
We may update this privacy policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, regulations, or operational needs. Any updates will be posted here with a revised effective date. We encourage users to check this policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect and manage your data. Continued use of Step Orbit after any updates will indicate your acceptance of the revised terms.
