Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 09/01/2026 Last Updated: 09/01/2026

Likeme Tech Studio ("we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy applies to the Android applications published and operated by Likeme Tech Studio through Google Play (collectively, "our Apps") and explains how information may be collected, used, shared, retained, and protected when you interact with our Apps.

Not every App published by us utilizes all of the features, device permissions, or third-party SDKs described in this Policy. Actual data practices depend on the specific features and configurations of each individual App and how you interact with it. Where an App provides an additional in-app privacy notice or supplemental disclosure, that notice should be read in conjunction with this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

When you use our Apps, we and our integrated third-party service providers may automatically collect certain device, technical, and usage information. This data is collected to ensure app stability, display advertisements, provide core features, and improve overall performance:

• Device and Hardware Information: Device model, manufacturer, operating system and version, system language, screen resolution, country or region, time zone, and mobile network operator.
• Identifiers: Google Android Advertising ID (GAID / AAID) where permitted and available, anonymized app instance identifiers, and unique device identifiers strictly used for diagnostics and fraud prevention.
• Log and Diagnostics Data: Internet Protocol (IP) address (primarily used to derive approximate, non-precise country or city level location), app crash logs, runtime errors, ANR (Application Not Responding) reports, performance metrics, and session statistics (such as session duration and feature interaction timestamps).

2. Information You Provide

Certain App features may allow or require you to provide information voluntarily, including:

• User Communications: Feedback, crash reports, customer support requests, or emails you send to us.
• User-Generated Content: Media, text, or files that you choose to import, edit, scan, or create within the App.

We process such information strictly as necessary to deliver the relevant feature or respond to your inquiry. If a particular App does not provide account registration or content upload features, no such data is collected or stored on our servers.

3. Device Permissions

Depending on the specific functionality of each App, we may request certain device permissions. Permissions are requested only when necessary to execute the corresponding feature:

• Storage / Media / Photos / Videos: Used for selecting, reading, scanning, saving, or editing local files, images, or documents at your explicit request.
• Camera: Used for taking photos, recording video clips, scanning QR codes, or supporting real-time camera-based features.
• Microphone: Used for audio recording, voice input, or sound-related functionalities within the App.
• Location (Approximate / Network-based): Used for providing regional-specific functionality or optimizing localized ad delivery.
• Nearby Devices / Bluetooth / Wi-Fi: Used for discovering, connecting to, or interacting with compatible local peripherals and network devices.
• Notifications: Used for sending operational updates, service alerts, reminders, and relevant system notifications.

You may grant or revoke these permissions at any time through your Android device system settings (Settings > Apps > Permissions).

4. Local Processing and Data Transmission

We prioritize on-device (local) processing wherever technically feasible:

• Local On-Device Processing: Features involving the editing, scanning, conversion, or viewing of personal media, photos, audio, or documents are executed locally on your device. Such content is not uploaded, stored, or processed on our remote servers without your explicit intent.
• Data Transmission: When cloud-based features (e.g., ad serving, analytics, crash monitoring, or cloud sync) are required, only the minimum necessary technical parameters and diagnostics data are securely transmitted to our servers or authorized third-party service providers.

5. How We Use Information

We process collected data for legitimate business, operational, and legal purposes, including:

• To operate, maintain, and deliver all core features of our Apps.
• To monitor, analyze, and diagnose app performance, stability, crashes, and ANR errors.
• To serve, manage, optimize, and measure non-personalized or personalized advertisements via third-party advertising networks.
• To detect, prevent, and mitigate fraud, invalid traffic, malicious activity, and security threats.
• To comply with applicable legal obligations and enforce our terms of service.

6. Third-Party SDKs and Services

Our Apps may integrate third-party software development kits (SDKs) and mediation partners for monetization, analytics, crash reporting, and privacy management. Third-party providers process information independently in accordance with their respective privacy policies:

• Google AdMobPurpose & Data Processing: Used for advertising monetization across various formats (Banner, Interstitial, Rewarded, Native). Processes IP address (for approximate location), Google Advertising ID (GAID), device identifiers, and ad interaction metrics. Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

7. Advertising, Mediation, and Personalized Ads

Our Apps may display ads served by our advertising partners. These partners may use advertising identifiers (such as Google Advertising ID / GAID), IP addresses, and app interaction data to:

• Serve relevant advertisements and measure ad performance and viewability.
• Perform frequency capping to prevent users from seeing the same ad repeatedly.
• Detect and prevent invalid ad clicks, automated traffic, and programmatic fraud.

Where required by regional data protection regulations (such as in the EEA/UK), we utilize the Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) or another compliant Consent Management Platform (CMP) to obtain your consent for personalized ads and cookie/storage access. You may modify or withdraw your consent at any time via in-app privacy settings or reset/disable your Advertising ID via your device settings (Settings > Google > Ads > Delete/Reset Advertising ID).

8. Data Security, Retention, and Deletion Requests

To maintain a clear and secure data lifecycle, we structure our security, retention, and deletion procedures as follows:

• Data Security Safeguards: We implement industry-standard technical, organizational, and administrative safeguards to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. All data transmissions are encrypted using standard transport layer protocols (HTTPS/TLS). While we use commercially reasonable measures, please be aware that no method of electronic transmission or cloud storage is 100% immune to vulnerabilities.
• Data Retention Principles: We retain personal information and diagnostics data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, provide our services, resolve technical disputes, maintain security records, and satisfy legal obligations. Data independently processed by third-party SDKs is governed by their respective retention schedules.
• Data Deletion & Access Requests: You have the right to request the deletion or retrieval of any personal data under our direct control:
  • Local Data: For information stored solely on your device (e.g., app cache, local preferences), you can permanently delete it at any time by clearing the App's storage via device settings or by uninstalling the App.
  • Server/Feedback Data: To request the deletion of your support correspondence, feedback logs, or any associated data held on our systems, please contact us at EllisTom.creative@outlook.com. We will verify and process eligible requests within statutory timeframes.

9. Data Sharing and Non-Sale of Information

We do not sell your personal data in exchange for monetary consideration.

We only disclose information to third parties under the following legitimate circumstances:

• Authorized Service Providers: Sharing necessary technical parameters with integrated SDK partners (as listed in Section 6) to deliver ads, run diagnostics, and maintain application functionality.
• Legal and Regulatory Compliance: Disclosing information when required by law, subpoena, court order, or to protect the rights, safety, property, and security of Likeme Tech Studio, our users, or the public.
• Business Transfers: In connection with any merger, asset sale, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business.

10. GDPR and CCPA/CPRA Regional Privacy Rights

Depending on your geographic location, you may have specific rights regarding your personal information under applicable data protection laws:

• For Users in the European Economic Area (EEA) / UK (GDPR): Where the GDPR applies, our legal basis for processing data includes Consent (e.g., personalized advertising via UMP), Legitimate Interests (e.g., app security, crash analytics, fraud prevention), and Contractual Necessity (e.g., delivering core app functionality). You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal data, receive data portability, and withdraw consent at any time without affecting past lawful processing.
• For California Residents (CCPA / CPRA): California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected, request its deletion, correct inaccurate information, and opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not sell personal information for money. To opt out of behavioral advertising sharing, you may adjust your in-app privacy preferences or disable personalized ads in your Android device settings.

To exercise any of these statutory rights, please reach out to us at EllisTom.creative@outlook.com.

11. Payments and Subscriptions

If any of our Apps offer digital purchases, premium subscriptions, or in-app features, all payment transactions are processed exclusively through the Google Play In-App Billing system. Likeme Tech Studio does not collect, access, or store your complete credit card numbers, banking details, or billing credentials. All payment processing is governed by Google Play’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

12. Policy Changes and Contact Information

We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in legal obligations, technical SDK configurations, or our operational practices. Any revisions will become effective immediately upon posting the updated Privacy Policy on this page, with an updated "Last Updated" date at the top.
