Privacy Policy

Thank you for using Life Is A Boat ("the App"). This Privacy Policy explains how the App, developed by Zeeshan Khalid (developer handle: manxlr), handles any information it may process. Please read this policy carefully.

1. Information We Collect

Personal Data

None. The App does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information, including but not limited to:

• Names, email addresses, or contact information
• Location data or GPS coordinates
• Device identifiers or unique IDs
• Usage patterns or app interaction data

Analytics Data

The App uses AdMob for advertising purposes only. AdMob may collect:

• Basic device information (device type, OS version)
• Ad interaction data (clicks, impressions)
• General location data (country/region level only)

Note: This data is collected by Google AdMob, not by our app directly. You can opt out of personalized ads in your device settings.

2. How We Use Information

Since the App does not collect personal data, there is no personal information to process or analyze. The app functions entirely offline with all content stored locally on your device.

AdMob Usage

AdMob data is used solely for:

• Displaying relevant advertisements
• Measuring ad performance
• Preventing ad fraud

3. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not share any personal data because we don't collect any. The only third-party service used is:

Google AdMob

AdMob may share aggregated, anonymized data with advertisers and partners. This data cannot be used to identify individual users. For more information about AdMob's data practices, please review Google's Privacy Policy.

4. Data Security

• Minimal Risk: Since no personal data is collected, the risk of data breaches is negligible
• Local Storage: All app content (proverbs, videos, music) is stored locally on your device
• No Network Transmission: No personal data is transmitted over the internet
• Offline Operation: The app works completely offline, ensuring maximum privacy
