Privacy Policy for KIDDOPICK

1. Information We Collect

The **KIDDOPICK** app itself does not directly collect any personally identifiable information (PII) from its users, such as names, email addresses, or location data.

Data Collected by Third-Party Services (AdMob)

We use **Google AdMob** to serve advertisements within our App. AdMob is an advertising service provided by Google. These third-party services may collect and use information about your device and your activity in the App.

The information collected by AdMob typically includes:

• Device identifiers (e.g., Advertising ID, Android ID).
• IP address.
• Information about your device (e.g., device type, operating system).
• Usage data and interactions with the ads displayed.

2. Use of Collected Data (Advertising)

Google AdMob and Personalized Ads

The data collected by AdMob is used to:

• **Deliver Ads:** Serve relevant and timely advertisements.
• **Measure Ad Effectiveness:** Track the performance and effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
• **Personalized Advertising:** AdMob and its partners use unique identifiers (like your device’s advertising ID) to serve **personalized ads**. This means ads may be selected based on your past activity and interests.

Non-Personalized Ads

If you are located in a region where personalized advertising is restricted (e.g., under GDPR or COPPA, or if you explicitly opt-out), you will receive **non-personalized ads**. These ads are based on contextual information, like the content of the App or a general location, but do not use your device's identifiers for tracking.

3. Links to Third-Party Sites

Users may find advertising or other content in our App that links to the sites and services of our partners, suppliers, advertisers, sponsors, licensors, and other third parties. We do not control the content or links that appear on these sites and are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to or from our App. These sites and services may have their own privacy policies.

4. Your Choices and Opt-Out

Users have control over the use of their device identifiers for interest-based advertising:

• **Android:** You can opt-out of personalized advertising by navigating to your device's Google settings and resetting your Advertising ID and/or turning on the "Opt out of Ads Personalization" setting.
• **General:** You can visit the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page to learn more about interest-based advertising and opt out of certain services.

5. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

**KIDDOPICK** is designed for a general audience, including children. We are committed to complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

• We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 directly through the App.
• To comply with COPPA, we use Google AdMob's **"Tagging for Child-Directed Treatment"** setting on all ad requests served within this App. This ensures that only non-personalized ads are served to users, regardless of age, and prevents AdMob from collecting or using personal data from the user for personalized advertising.
• If a parent or guardian becomes aware that their child has provided us with personal information without their consent, they should contact us at the address provided below.

6. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "last updated" date below. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
