Privacy Policy

01Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how data is handled across the Impact Loop website (the "Site") and our mobile applications, including CrackLoop (collectively, the "Services"). The Services work without any sign-in or account. We ourselves do not collect your name, email, phone number, or location. Some limited data is processed by trusted third parties (such as Google) to deliver ads, process purchases, and serve content, as described below.

02Information we collect

We keep data collection to a minimum:

• No account data. We do not ask you to register, and we do not store your identity on our servers.
• On-device data. Your preferences, bookmarks, notes, reading progress, and downloaded content are stored locally on your device, not on our servers. You can clear them from within the app or by uninstalling it.
• Technical data via third parties. When the app shows ads, processes a purchase, or downloads content, the relevant third-party service (e.g. Google) may process technical data such as device and advertising identifiers and IP address, as covered in their own privacy policies.

03Advertising

Our apps may display ads through Google AdMob. To serve and measure ads, Google may collect and use data such as your device's advertising identifier and IP address, and may serve personalized or non-personalized ads in accordance with its policies. Learn more in Google's advertising policy. You can reset or limit ad personalization in your device settings (Android: Settings → Google → Ads). Where required, we request consent for personalized ads.

04Purchases

Optional paid features (such as "CrackLoop Pro") are sold through Google Play Billing. Payments are handled entirely by Google — we do not receive or store your card or payment details. Google processes purchase data under its privacy policy.

05Content delivery

Study content is downloaded from our content repository hosted on GitHub (including GitHub Releases and raw file hosting). As with any network request, GitHub may process your IP address to deliver the files. We do not attach any identifier of yours to these requests. Once downloaded, content is cached on your device so the app works offline.

06Data storage & retention

Because the data the app creates (preferences, bookmarks, notes, cached content) lives on your device, you remain in control of it. Clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app removes it. Data processed by Google for ads and billing is retained according to Google's own policies.

07Children's privacy

The Services are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

08Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data, or to object to certain processing. Since we do not hold an account or personal profile for you, most data can be managed directly on your device. For requests relating to data processed by Google (ads/billing), use Google's privacy controls. You can also contact us using the details below.

09Security

We design the Services to minimize the data involved, which is itself a strong privacy safeguard. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we and our third-party providers take reasonable measures to protect the data processed through the Services.

10Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Significant changes will be reflected here, and your continued use of the Services constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
