SmartDip Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how SmartDip collects, uses, and protects information when you use the SmartDip mobile application.
1. Who we are
SmartDip is a draw statistics and number generation app.
Contact email: smartdip@hamlington.co.uk
2. Information we collect
2.1 Information stored on your device
SmartDip stores app data locally on your device using local storage (AsyncStorage). This may include:
- Saved play numbers you create
- Draw results, draw prizes, and draw statistics cached for app features
- Ad settings state, such as temporary ad-free reward timing
This local app data is not user account data and is not tied to an account in SmartDip.
2.2 Information from remote services
SmartDip requests draw-related data from SmartDip endpoints over HTTPS for app functionality.
2.3 Advertising and third-party SDK data
SmartDip uses Google Mobile Ads (AdMob). Even when SmartDip does not run its own user account backend, third-party SDKs may collect or process certain data for advertising, fraud prevention, security, and service operation.
This can include data such as:
- Advertising identifiers (for example, Android Advertising ID)
- Device and app information
- Diagnostics and performance information
- Ad interaction data
SmartDip requests non-personalized ads where configured in app code.
For details about AdMob and Google data handling, see:
3. How we use information
SmartDip uses information to:
- Provide app features (draw data display, statistics, number generation)
- Save your in-app preferences and generated/saved entries on your device
- Display ads and manage ad behavior
- Maintain app reliability, security, and performance
4. Data sharing
SmartDip does not sell your personal information.
SmartDip uses third-party service providers (such as Google AdMob) that may process data as described in their policies.
5. Data retention
- Local app data remains on your device until you delete it or remove the app data.
- Third-party providers may retain data according to their own retention policies.
6. Data deletion and your choices
You can delete SmartDip app data by:
- Deleting saved items inside the app where deletion actions are available
- Clearing app storage/data in your device settings
- Uninstalling the app
For deletion-specific instructions and retention details, see the SmartDip Data Deletion Information page.
Because SmartDip does not provide user accounts, there is no account profile data to delete on a SmartDip account server.
7. Security
SmartDip uses HTTPS for API communication to encrypt data in transit.
No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but SmartDip takes reasonable measures to protect data handled by the app.
8. Children
SmartDip is not intended for children under the minimum target age selected in the app store listing.
9. International users
Third-party services used by SmartDip may process data in countries outside your own jurisdiction.
10. Changes to this policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the Effective date above.
