However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Our applications are suitable for users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.

If you believe that a child under 13 has provided personal information through our apps, please contact us immediately and we will take steps to delete such information.

13. International Users

Our applications are available globally on the Google Play Store. By using our apps, you acknowledge that your data may be processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have different data protection laws. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information in accordance with this policy.
