Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Dog Whistle does not collect, store, or share any personal user data directly. However, the app uses Google AdMob for advertising, which may collect device identifiers and app performance data for ad targeting and personalization.

2. Permissions

The app requests these Android permissions:

  • Microphone (RECORD_AUDIO): Used only for audio processing during whistle generation
  • Modify Audio Settings: Required to adjust volume/frequency settings
  • Internet & Network State (for AdMob): Only used to display ads (if ad-supported version)

3. AdMob (Google Ads)

For free versions with ads:

  • Google AdMob may collect device data for ad personalization
  • Device identifiers (like advertising ID) for ad targeting
  • App performance data including crash logs, diagnostics, and other performance metrics
  • See Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

4. Data Collected by Third Parties

The app uses Google AdMob SDK which automatically collects:

  • Device identifiers (advertising ID, device ID)
  • App performance data (crash logs, diagnostics, performance metrics)
  • This data is used for advertising personalization and ad performance measurement
  • Collected data is shared with Google for their advertising services

5. Data Security

Since we don't collect user data directly:

  • No data storage occurs by the app
  • No data transmission to developer servers
  • No third-party data sharing by the developer

However, AdMob SDK may transmit device identifiers and app performance data to Google servers for advertising purposes.

6. Children's Privacy

Dog Whistle is safe for all ages as it:

  • Contains no social features
  • Has no data collection by the app
  • Includes no inappropriate content

7. Changes to This Policy
