Privacy Policy | tradicted

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how our app handles your information. Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to being transparent about the data processed when you use our services.

For the purposes of data protection laws like the GDPR, the developer of this app is the Data Controller. The third-party services we use, such as Google, are our Data Processors.

Information We Process

While our app is designed to not store your personal data on our own servers, we use third-party services that collect the following information on our behalf:

1. Authentication Data (Provided by You)

Email address: Used for authentication purposes to secure your account. It is not displayed publicly or shared.
User Identifier: A unique ID generated by Firebase Authentication to manage your account.
Username: A display name you choose, used only for leaderboard purposes and linked to your User Identifier.

2. Automatically Collected Information

Device and App Performance Data: Includes your device model, operating system, IP address, language settings, and technical data about app performance and crashes (Crashlytics).
App Interaction Data: Anonymous data on how you interact with the app's features, such as screens visited and buttons tapped (Google Analytics for Firebase).
Advertising Data: Includes your device's Advertising ID (IDFA on iOS or AAID on Android) and interactions with ads.
Approximate Location Data: Your general location (e.g., country or city) is inferred from your IP address. We do not request or track your precise GPS location. This data is used for analytics and to help serve more relevant ads.

How We Use Your Information

The data processed by our service providers is used for the following purposes:

To authenticate your account and ensure its security.
To display your chosen username on leaderboards.
To analyze app usage and performance to identify bugs and improve the user experience.
To deliver contextual and personalized advertisements through Google AdMob.
To fulfill our legal and security obligations.

We process your information under the legal bases of consent (for personalized advertising) and our legitimate interests (for essential functions like authentication, analytics, and app stability).

Data Sharing with Third Parties

We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with the following essential third-party services who act as our data processors:

Google Firebase: Used for authentication, analytics, and crash reporting. See Google's Privacy Policy.
Google AdMob: Used for serving advertisements within the app.

These services are compliant with major data protection regulations, including GDPR.

Data Retention

Authentication Data: Retained until you delete your account.
Analytics and Crash Reports: Retained for a period allowing us to analyze trends, typically as defined by Google's policies.
Advertising Data: Retained as per Google's data retention policies.

Your Rights and Data Deletion

To delete your account and all associated data, you can use the automated "Delete Account" feature within the app's settings menu.

For any other requests or to exercise your rights, please contact us at info@tradicted.com.

Children's Privacy

Our app is not intended for use by children under the age of 13 (or the relevant age of digital consent in your region). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

On our Website: We use Google Analytics, which places a small text file called a "cookie" on your browser to help us understand how visitors find and use our landing page. You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings.

In our Mobile App: The app itself does not use traditional browser cookies. However, our partners (Google AdMob and Firebase) use mobile device identifiers (such as the IDFA on iOS or AAID on Android). These identifiers help serve relevant ads and track app performance. You can reset this identifier or opt out of personalized advertising through your device system settings.
