My Fortune Cookie: Our Commitment to Your Privacy

Last Updated: June 1, 2024

1. Our Promise to You

Welcome! This Privacy Policy explains how DailyDose Apps ("we," "us") handles information when you use our My Fortune Cookie mobile application (the "App"). Your trust is important, and we're committed to being transparent about your privacy.

2. What Information We Handle (and What We Don't)

Good news: We keep things simple and focus on your app experience, not your personal life.

2.1 Information You Provide? None Required.

You **do not** need to create an account, provide your name, email, or any other personal details to enjoy My Fortune Cookie.

2.2 Information the App Collects Automatically (Non-Personal Data)

To make the App work smoothly and help us improve it, the App automatically gathers some basic, non-personal technical and usage information:

  • Your App Activity: Think of this as how the App remembers your progress. It includes:
    • How many fortunes you've opened (to track your streaks!)
    • The date you last opened a fortune.
    • Which fortunes you've seen (so we don't repeat them too often).
    • Your current usage streak.
    • Any preferences you set within the App (like language).
  • Basic Device Details: To help us fix bugs and ensure compatibility, we might note general information like your device model (e.g., "iPhone 13", "Samsung Galaxy S21") and operating system version. We also use your device's resettable Advertising Identifier (IDFA for iOS, AAID for Android) for analytics and showing relevant ads (see Section 4).

3. Why We Collect This Information

We use this limited, non-personal information only to:

  • Make the App work correctly: Remembering your progress, streaks, and preferences.
  • Improve your experience: Understanding how features are used so we can make the App better.
  • Show relevant ads: Advertisements help keep My Fortune Cookie free for everyone. These ads are provided by partners (see Section 4).
  • Troubleshoot problems: Understanding device types helps us fix bugs faster.

4. Sharing Information: Keeping it Limited

Your Personal Data Stays Private. We never sell or rent your personal information to anyone. Period.

We only share limited, non-personal, or anonymous data with trusted partners for specific purposes:

  • Advertising Partners (e.g., Google AdMob): To display ads within the App, these partners use your device's Advertising Identifier. This helps them show ads that might be more relevant to you. They handle this data according to their own privacy policies. You can learn more about Google's practices here: Google Ad Technologies.
  • Analytics Providers: We may use services to analyze anonymous usage patterns (like which features are most popular). This helps us understand how to improve the App. This data is aggregated and doesn't identify you personally.

5. Where Your Data Lives

Most of your App data (like your fortune history, streaks, and preferences) is stored **directly on your phone or tablet** using its local storage features. It generally doesn't get sent to our servers, except for the anonymous analytics data and the information used by ad partners as described above.

6. You're in Control: Your Choices

You have choices regarding your information:

  • Reset Your Progress: You can clear your fortune history and streak information anytime within the App's settings.
  • Limit Ad Tracking: You can usually limit ad tracking or reset your Advertising Identifier in your device's main settings (iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking; Android: Settings > Google > Ads).
  • Manage Notifications: You can turn App notifications on or off through your device's system settings.

7. Protecting Children's Privacy

My Fortune Cookie is intended for a general audience and is **not directed at children under 13** (or the equivalent minimum age in your region). We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you believe we might have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can delete it.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. When we do, we'll update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to check back periodically to stay informed.

9. Questions? We're Here to Help

If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, please don't hesitate to contact us at: [email protected].

10. Your Agreement

By downloading and using the My Fortune Cookie App, you acknowledge you've read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to the way we handle information as described.
