Some Apps may include ads delivered via third-party ad networks, which may collect non-personal information (e.g., device identifiers) for personalized advertisements. Apps with ads are labeled “Contains ads” on their Google Play or Apple App Store listing. You can opt out of personalized ads through your device settings (e.g., by resetting your Advertising ID on Android or limiting ad tracking on iOS).

8. Children’s Privacy

Our Apps are not primarily targeted at children under 13. If an App collects personal information from users under 13, we comply with COPPA by obtaining verifiable parental consent (e.g., via email confirmation, credit card verification, or other FTC-approved methods) before collecting such data. Parents can contact us at [email protected] to review, update, or delete their child’s information.

If an App targets children, its store listing on Google Play or the Apple App Store will disclose data collection practices, and we ensure compliance with Google Play’s Families Policy and Apple’s App Store guidelines for kids’ apps.

10. Data Security

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or comply with legal obligations. Upon account deletion, we permanently erase your data from our databases, and it cannot be restored.

12. International Data Transfers

Our Apps are operated from Bulgaria, recognized by the European Commission as providing adequate data protection. If data is transferred to third parties outside the EU, we ensure they are contractually obligated to maintain equivalent protection standards.
