Privacy Policy

AnyFikra is an independent app studio run by one person, building small, thoughtful apps and sharing that work online. In this policy, “AnyFikra”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to AnyFikra, and “you” refers to anyone who uses our products or interacts with us.

This policy applies to:

• This website, anyfikra.com, and its subdomains
• The mobile apps we publish
• Our official pages and accounts on online platforms
• Any emails, messages or feedback you send us

Some of our apps have their own privacy policy describing the data that app handles. Where an app’s policy is more specific than this one, the app’s policy applies to that app.

Information you give us

When you contact us, send feedback, report a problem or message us, we receive what you choose to share, such as your name, email address, the content of your message and any attachments.

Information collected automatically

When you use our website or apps, we and our service providers may collect:

• Device type, operating system, browser and language
• IP address and approximate location derived from it
• Pages or screens viewed and how you got there
• Crash reports and performance diagnostics
• Advertising identifiers, where ads are shown (you can reset or limit these in your device settings)
• Cookies and similar technologies (see Cookies, Analytics & Ads below)

Information from online platforms

When you follow, comment on, message or otherwise interact with our pages and accounts on other platforms, we may see your public profile information and the content of your interaction. Those platforms may also give us aggregated statistics about how people engage with our content. Each platform’s own privacy policy governs the data it collects about you.

Purchases

In-app purchases and subscriptions are processed by the store you downloaded the app from. We never receive your full payment details, only the confirmation needed to unlock what you bought.

• Provide, maintain and improve our apps and website
• Respond to your messages and support requests
• Diagnose crashes, fix bugs and keep our products secure
• Understand, in aggregate, how our products are used
• Show ads that help keep some of our products free
• Send updates you have asked for (you can opt out any time)
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms

Where the law requires a legal basis, we rely on your consent, on what is needed to provide a product you asked for, on our legitimate interest in running and improving our products, or on a legal obligation.

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this website, such as which pages are viewed, which links are clicked and where visits come from. It uses cookies to collect information like your device, browser, approximate location and the pages you visit. Learn how Google uses this information.

This website and some of our apps show ads to help keep them free. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

• Opt out of Google Analytics with the Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on
• Opt out of personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings
• Opt out of other vendors’ use of cookies at aboutads.info
• Reset your advertising ID or limit ad tracking in your device settings
• Block or delete cookies in your browser settings (some features may not work as expected)

We don’t sell your personal information. We share it only in these cases:

• Service providers that help us run our products, such as hosting, analytics, crash reporting, email and advertising, acting on our behalf
• Platforms you use to download our apps or interact with us, as needed for those features to work
• Legal reasons, when required by law or needed to protect rights, safety or prevent fraud
• Business transfers, if AnyFikra or one of its apps is sold or transferred, under the protections of this policy
• With your consent, in any other case

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes described here, for example as long as it takes to resolve your support request, plus a reasonable period afterwards. Aggregated data that no longer identifies you may be kept longer. Data an app stores only on your device stays there until you delete it or uninstall the app.

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we can’t guarantee absolute security, but we take it seriously and work with providers who do the same.

Our service providers may process information in countries other than the one you live in. When we transfer personal information internationally, we rely on the safeguards required by applicable data protection laws.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Correct information that is inaccurate
• Have your information deleted
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Receive a copy of your information in a portable format
• Withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on it
• Opt out of personalized advertising
• Complain to your local data protection authority

To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@anyfikra.com. We may ask you to verify your identity first, and we will never treat you differently for exercising your rights.

To have the personal information we hold about you deleted, email privacy@anyfikra.com with the subject Data Deletion Request. Please include the email address or account you used with us and which app or service your request is about.

• We will confirm we received your request
• We will delete your data within 30 days, except anything we are legally required to keep
• Data stored only on your device can be removed by deleting it in the app or uninstalling the app
• If you connected another account to one of our apps, you can also remove our access from that service’s settings

Our products are not directed to children under 13, or the minimum age required in your country, and we don’t knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Our website and apps may link to websites and services we don’t operate. We aren’t responsible for their privacy practices, so we encourage you to read their policies.

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date at the top of this page, and for significant changes we will give notice on this website or in our apps.

Questions about this policy or your data? Email privacy@anyfikra.com and we’ll get back to you.
