The Application does not gather precise information about the location of your mobile device.

Third-Party Access and Services

Only aggregated, anonymized data is periodically transmitted to external services to aid the Service Provider in improving the Application and their service, and for serving advertisements. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties only in the ways that are described in this privacy statement.

The Application utilizes third-party services that have their own Privacy Policy about handling data. Below are the links to the Privacy Policy of the third-party service providers used by the Application:

The Service Provider may disclose User Provided (if any in the future) and Automatically Collected Information:

Data Retention Policy

The Service Provider will retain Automatically Collected information for as long as you use the Application and for a reasonable time thereafter for analytical, advertising, and operational purposes. As search history is stored locally on your device, its retention is managed by you.

Security

The Service Provider is concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. We provide reasonable physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information we process and maintain. For example, we limit access to this information to authorized employees and contractors who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our Application. Please be aware that, although we endeavor to provide reasonable security for information we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time for any reason. We will notify you of any changes to our Privacy Policy by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top. You are advised to consult this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes, as continued use is deemed approval of all changes.
