Welcome to Coin Flipper ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience using our mobile application. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you use our Coin Flipper app.

Information We Collect

Coin Flipper uses Google Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with our app. This helps us improve the app experience. Firebase Analytics automatically collects:

  • Usage Information: Screen views, app launches, and feature usage
  • Device Information: Device type, operating system version, app version
  • Anonymous Identifiers: Firebase Installation ID (a random identifier that doesn't personally identify you)
  • Interaction Events: Coin flips, settings access, history views

This data is:

  • Collected anonymously without personally identifying information
  • Used solely to improve app functionality and user experience
  • Processed by Google in accordance with their privacy policy
  • Not sold or shared with third parties for marketing purposes
Advertising Data

Coin Flipper displays ads through Google AdMob. AdMob may collect:

  • Ad Interaction Data: Ad views, clicks, and interactions
  • Device Information: Device type, operating system, network information
