GDPR & CCPA Compliance (Data Protection Rights)
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA) or California (USA), you have certain data protection rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). This includes the right to access, update, or delete your personal information. Since our app works standalone and we do not store personal data on our servers, the control of data remains entirely on your device. For advertising preferences regarding third-party services like Google AdMob, please manage your device's ad tracking settings directly.
Children's Privacy (COPPA)
Our Service does not knowingly address or collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at info@41software.com.
