The Application is currently offered only to individuals who are eighteen (18) years of age or older and reside in the United States. If you do not meet these requirements, you should not install or use the Application.
Certain features may vary depending on your device, operating system, or Application version.

We may collect information when you install, access, or use the Application. Some information is collected automatically, while other information is provided by you when using the Services or communicating with us.
Information Collected Automatically
When you use the Application, we may collect information such as your IP address, device ID, advertising ID, device brand and model, operating system, browser version, screen dimensions, language preferences, device settings, and user agent.
We may also collect information about your activity within the Application, including features used, searches performed, date and time of usage, interactions, installation source, application version, crash reports, and other technical information.
This information helps us provide the Services, understand how the Application is used, improve performance, and resolve technical issues.

We may collect information that you voluntarily share with us when using the Application or communicating with us. This may include your name, email address, and any information you provide through email, web forms, or other communication channels.
Information Collected Through Application Features
Certain Application features allow users to upload photos from their devices to create custom themes. These photos are stored locally on the user's device and are not transmitted to our servers. Where required, we request the relevant permissions, which you may manage or withdraw through your device settings.
For the weather widget, we may collect your precise location information to provide relevant weather updates. This information is processed in real time solely to provide the requested weather functionality. We do not store this information on our servers, create user profiles, or use it to track individuals.
Information accessed through these Application features is collected and processed only to provide the requested Services and is not stored on our servers.

- Managing user preferences.
- Responding to inquiries, complaints, and support requests.
- Sending important service, account, or security communications.

- Responding to valid requests from public authorities.
- Protecting the Company's rights and resolving disputes.
We may use aggregated information to understand how the Application performs or how its features are used.
Information is considered aggregated or de-identified only where it has been processed so that it no longer identifies, or cannot reasonably be linked to, a particular individual as required by Applicable Law.
We do not use Personal Information for materially different purposes without providing any further notice or consent required by law.
Grounds for Processing Information
We process Personal Information depending on your use of the Application, your interactions with the Services, your location, and the following grounds, where applicable:
Consent: We may process Personal Information when you provide consent for a specific purpose, except where processing is permitted or required under Applicable Law.
Contract: We may process Personal Information where necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations or take steps related to providing the Services.
Legal Obligations: We may process Personal Information to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal requirements.
Legitimate Interests: We may process Personal Information for our legitimate business interests, provided such interests do not override your rights and freedoms.
Analytics and Advertising
We may use analytics and advertising tools, including third-party SDKs and similar technologies, to monitor Application performance, understand usage trends, and measure advertising effectiveness. These tools may collect information described under Information We Collect. We provide applicable privacy notices and choices as required by law.
When Information Is Shared
We may share Personal Information with other organizations when necessary to provide the Services, support our operations, or meet legal requirements.
Service Providers
We may engage Service Providers for hosting, analytics, advertising, technical infrastructure, communications, security, or customer support.
These providers receive information relevant to the services they perform.
Where providers act on our behalf, we use appropriate contractual arrangements and safeguards required by Applicable Law.
Some providers may act independently when determining how information is used for their own services. Their separate privacy notices may apply to those activities.
Affiliated Companies and Business Partners
We may disclose information to companies under common ownership or control, or to business partners involved in providing specific Services.
Such disclosures must relate to a disclosed purpose and comply with Applicable Law.
Where an organization independently controls information, or where responsibility is shared between organizations, we will provide the information and arrangements required by the relevant privacy laws.
Government and Legal Requests
We may disclose information in response to a valid court order, warrant, subpoena, or other lawful request. Information may also be disclosed where legally appropriate to investigate fraud, protect Users, address threats to safety, or establish and defend legal claims.
Changes to Our Business
If the Company is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, Personal Information may be disclosed or transferred as part of that transaction.
Any such transfer will be handled in accordance with applicable privacy requirements.
Third-Party Providers
The Application may use outside services to support its features and technical operations.
The following table identifies the providers used by the Application, their purpose, and where further privacy information can be found.
| Provider | Privacy Policy |
|---|---|
| Adjust | https://www.adjust.com/terms/privacy-policy/ |
| Firebase | https://policies.google.com/privacy |
| Yahoo | https://legal.yahoo.com/us/en/yahoo/privacy/index.html |
| OpenWeather | https://openweather.co.uk/privacy-policy |
| Amplitude | https://amplitude.com/privacy |
| https://policies.google.com/privacy |
Where relevant, we may provide further information about the categories of Personal Information shared with each provider.
Third-Party Services may have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies where a provider separately handles your information.
Nothing in this Policy removes the Company's legal responsibilities for information processing carried out on its behalf.
How Long We Keep Information
We retain Personal Information only for the period necessary to meet the purposes stated in this Policy, fulfill our legal obligations, or where continued retention is otherwise permitted by Applicable Law. Certain information may be kept for longer periods where needed to comply with legal requirements, maintain business records, or address disputes. We may continue to use information in an aggregated or anonymized form after the original Personal Information has been deleted, provided it can no longer reasonably be linked to an individual.
Keeping Your Information Secure
We take reasonable steps to protect Personal Information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, and disclosure. Depending on the information and systems involved, our measures may include encryption, access controls, security monitoring, and restrictions on how information is handled. We also take appropriate steps to protect information when it is transmitted between systems. Despite these measures, no method of electronic communication or storage is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to maintain safeguards appropriate to the information we process.
Processing Information in Other Countries
The Company and its Service Providers may operate or maintain systems outside your country of residence.
Your Personal Information may therefore be transferred to or processed in countries with different privacy laws.
Where Applicable Law requires additional safeguards, we use an appropriate legal transfer mechanism.
These measures may include recognized adequacy arrangements, contractual protections, or other lawful safeguards.
Where required, you may request information about the safeguards used for relevant international transfers.

You can change or disable applicable permissions through your device settings. Some Application features may not work as intended if the relevant access is unavailable.
