1. Overview
By installing or using any Avar Apps mobile application (“App” or “Service”) you agree that your information is handled as described below. If you do not agree, please do not install or use the App.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
- No account is required; we do not ask for your name, e‑mail, phone, or contacts.
- We do not track your precise GPS location.
- Camera or microphone permissions are used only for on‑device features (e.g. scanning, voice analysis). Images or audio never leave your device.
3. Automatically Collected (Pseudonymous) Data
Certain non‑personal data is sent to third‑party SDKs (see §5) so the App can show ads, gather usage statistics, or deliver push notifications. Examples include:
- Android Advertising ID (AAID)
- Device model, OS version, screen size
- App version, language/region, in‑app events
- IP address (truncated or hashed, never stored by us)
You can reset or limit the Advertising ID at any time:
Settings → Privacy → Ads (Android 13 +) or
Settings → Google → Ads (Android 12 or earlier).
4. Legal Bases for Processing
Under the EU GDPR / UK GDPR we rely on:
- Consent — granted when you accept runtime permissions or a GDPR consent dialog.
- Legitimate interest — to keep the Service secure, prevent fraud, and understand aggregate usage so we can improve the App.
Residents of California (CCPA/CPRA), Brazil (LGPD), and Australia have similar rights (see §8).
5. Third‑Party Service Providers
These SDKs may process data on our behalf. Each provides its own opt‑out / privacy controls:
- Advertising
• Google AdMob / Google Ads — policy ↗
• Unity Ads (+ ironSource mediation) — policy ↗
• AdColony — policy ↗
• Chartboost — policy ↗
• Yandex Ads SDK — policy ↗ | opt‑out ↗ - Analytics & Crash Reporting
• Firebase Analytics & Crashlytics — policy ↗
• Google Analytics for Firebase — policy ↗
The MoPub SDK was removed in January 2023 after the service shut down.
6. Data Storage & Retention
- Partners keep analytics/advertising data for 2–26 months (per their policies).
- Any files saved by the App (e.g. game progress, locally processed audio) stay on your device unless you choose to share or export them.
7. Security
All data transmitted to partners uses HTTPS/TLS. While no system is 100 % secure, we and our partners apply physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards.
8. Your Rights
You may exercise rights granted by GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, LGPD, and other laws:
- Access & portability — receive a copy of your data.
- Erasure — request deletion of data held by partners.
- Restriction / objection — limit or stop processing.
- Withdrawal of consent — disable ad personalisation in the App or device settings.
- “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” — partners respect the Android Ads personalisation opt‑out.
To make a request, e‑mail avarmg@gmail.com. We may ask you to confirm your identity first.
9. Children’s Privacy
Our Apps are not directed to children under 13 (or the age defined by local law). If we learn that we have collected personal data from a child, we will delete it promptly.
10. International Transfers
Partners may process data on servers outside your country. They rely on standard contractual clauses or other approved safeguards.
11. Links to Other Sites
The App may link to Google Play or third‑party websites. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy to reflect legal or operational changes. The latest version is always available at this URL.
