PRIVACY POLICY
for
Caynax Timer
(com.caynax.ios.timer)

Data provided by the user within the application is used only within the app - it is not sent anywhere or shared with anyone.
Your activities, sessions, categories, tags, goals and settings are stored only on your device. They leave it only if you
export a backup or a CSV file yourself and choose where to send it. The application has no account, no server of its own,
and makes no network requests other than those of the advertising and analytics services listed below.

The application is ads-supported and requires consent to display advertisements.
If the user does not agree to indirect financial support of the application via in-app advertisements, they have the option to purchase the "Ads-free application version" or the "PRO ads-free application version" before proceeding to the main application content.
The application uses App Tracking Transparency (ATT) and the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) - the user can choose whether to allow (personalized) advertising tracking.

The free version also shows Caynax promotional ads for our other apps. For these the application sends anonymous statistics
to our ad server (ads.caynax.com): which promotional ad was shown or tapped, the number of ad requests, the country and
language settings, the application version and the screen size. No identifier of any kind is sent, so this information
cannot be linked to you; it is used only to measure how the ads perform.

Age signal and age-appropriate advertising

Where required by law, Caynax Timer uses Apple's Declared Age Range
feature to ask whether you (or, for a child, a parent or guardian) wish to share
an age range with the app. We receive only an age category or range (for example
"under 13", "13–17", or "18 and over") — never your exact date of birth or age,
and never a government ID or other identity document.

We use this age signal for a single purpose: to choose the appropriate
advertising treatment in the app. If the signal indicates that you are a child or
a teenager, we instruct our advertising provider (Google AdMob) to apply child or
teen ad treatment, which disables personalized advertising and remarketing, and,
for children, prevents the use of the device advertising identifier (IDFA). Adults
and users whose age is not shared continue to see advertising governed by their
consent choices and our standard advertising practices.

The age range is determined on your device and is stored only locally on your
device to remember your ad-treatment setting; we do not upload your age range to
our servers. We do not use the age signal for profiling, analytics, or any purpose
other than the ad treatment described above.

You can change or stop sharing your age range at any time in
Settings > [your name] > Personal Information > Age Range for Apps. Apple's
handling of this information is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy.

If we become aware through this signal that a user is under 13 (or the applicable
age of digital consent in their country), we treat that user's activity as
child-directed and do not serve personalized advertising to them, consistent with
the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the GDPR/UK GDPR and the
Age Appropriate Design Code, and other applicable laws.

The application uses the following services:
- AdMob/Google banner ads - https://admob.google.com/home/ (https://policies.google.com/privacy)
- Google User Messaging Platform - used to ask for advertising consent where the law requires it (https://policies.google.com/privacy)
- Firebase Analytics - the application uses Firebase Analytics to anonymously report the user's activity within the application (https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy)
- Firebase Crashlytics - used to report crashes and errors so they can be fixed (https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy)
