Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Chronosystem Co., Ltd. (“we”) handles information in the pedometer app Pedometer - Health (the “App”).
1. Information Collected
- We generally do not ask you to input personal information such as your name, address, or phone number within the App.
- However, because the App uses third-party services (AdMob / Firebase), certain data may be collected and processed by those providers, such as:
- Device information (model, OS, language, app version)
- Identifiers (advertising ID, app instance ID, etc.)
- Usage data (screen views, feature usage, event logs)
- Ad-related data (ad impressions/clicks)
- Approximate location (e.g., inferred from IP address, where applicable)
- The App does not provide cloud sync or server-side storage for your step data. Step-related data is stored locally on your device in principle.
2. Purposes
- Ad delivery and measurement (AdMob)
- Analytics, troubleshooting, and product improvement (Firebase)
- Security and fraud prevention
3. Third-Party Services
The App uses:
- Google AdMob (Google Mobile Ads SDK)
- Google Firebase (e.g., Firebase Analytics)
Each provider handles data according to its own policies.
4. Your Choices
Depending on your device/OS, you may be able to reset/limit your advertising identifier or restrict analytics via system settings.
5. Retention
We do not store step data on our servers. Retention of data by third-party providers is governed by their policies.
6. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information, though no method is 100% secure.
7. Children
The App can be used by all ages. If you are a minor, please use the App with parental consent.
(The App is not primarily intended for children under 13.)
