Welcome to ArtNest: Color and Fun. Your privacy and safety are our top priorities. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information within our application.

1. Privacy Compliance

2. Information Collection and Use

• Personal Data: We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or precise location data.
• Device Permissions: The app may request access to your device's Gallery/Photos. This permission is used only to allow you to save your completed artwork locally on the device. We do not access your private photos, and no images are transmitted to our servers or shared with any third parties.
• Notifications: The app may request permission to send notifications. These are used only to send friendly reminders encouraging you to return and continue your creative activity. No personal data is collected through notifications, and this permission can be revoked at any time from your device settings.

3. Third-Party Services & Advertising

To support the development of ArtNest, we use third-party services that may collect non-personal technical data:

• Google AdMob: We display ads using Google AdMob. AdMob may collect non-personal technical data to serve contextual advertisements, in compliance with Google Play's policies and Apple App Store Guidelines.
• In-App Purchases (IAP): We offer a one-time purchase to remove ads. All transactions are processed securely by Google Play Billing or Apple App Store. We do not see or store your credit card or financial information.

4. Parental Gate

To ensure safety, all external links (such as "Rate Us" or "Privacy Policy") and In-App Purchase buttons are protected by a Parental Gate (e.g., a math problem or verification) to prevent accidental interactions.

5. Data Security & Retention

Since we do not collect personal data, there is no risk of your personal identity being compromised through the app. Any technical identifiers used by our third-party partners are retained only as long as necessary to provide ad services. No personal data is stored on our servers.

6. Data Deletion

Since we do not collect or store any personal data on our servers, there is no user data to delete. Any locally saved artwork is stored only on your device and can be deleted by clearing app data or uninstalling the app.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes.
