Firebase services are operated by Google LLC and are subject to Google's Privacy Policy.

The App is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us personal information, we will delete it promptly.
## 9. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS), Firebase security rules to restrict data access, and secure authentication via established providers (Google, Apple, Facebook). However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
