The app uses third-party services that may collect and process data:

These services process data according to their own privacy policies.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell personal data. Some automatically collected data may be shared with third-party service providers for analytics, crash reporting, and advertising purposes.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

TimerThing does not require user accounts and does not store personal data on its own servers.

Data Retention Period

Data collected through Google Analytics for Firebase, Firebase Crashlytics, and Google AdMob is retained only as long as necessary to fulfill analytics and advertising purposes, in accordance with Google's standard retention policies (typically ranging from 14 to 50 months), or until a manual deletion request is processed.

Data Deletion Requests

In compliance with Google Play’s Data Safety and User Data policies, users have full control over the erasure of their data. If you would like to formally request the deletion of analytics, performance, or diagnostic data associated with your device, please contact us directly at maker.dev.lab@gmail.com.

Upon receiving your request, we will verify your device/advertising identifier and initiate a deletion request with our third-party service providers (Google Firebase and Google AdMob) to permanently purge the data from their systems. All manual deletion requests will be fully processed and completed within 30 days.

You may also stop all future data collection and delete locally stored app data immediately by uninstalling the app from your device.

7. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect data, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
