Our Commitment to Your Privacy

Welcome to Offerloot! Our primary function is to aggregate and display publicly available deals, discounts, and offers from various online retailers to help you save money. This document explains our approach to privacy and is exclusively for the Offerloot mobile application (the "Service").

We believe in transparency and want you to understand exactly how we handle information. Your use of the Service signifies that you have read and consent to the practices we describe here.

What Information We Handle & Why

Our core principle is privacy-first. To be perfectly clear, here is a list of data we NEVER collect:

• Personal Details: Your name, email address, physical address, or phone number.
• Account Information: We don't have user accounts, so we never see usernames or passwords.
• Financial Data: We never ask for or have access to your credit card details or bank information.
• Sensitive Information: We do not request access to your contacts, photos, files, or precise GPS location.

So, what information is involved? For the app to run smoothly and reliably on your Android device, it needs to interact with essential background services provided by Google. This interaction involves the collection of anonymous, non-personal data necessary for basic operation and improvement.

• Service & Diagnostic Data: This includes anonymous crash logs, performance metrics (like app launch time), and diagnostics. For example, if the app crashes on a specific Android version, this data helps our developers identify and fix the bug without ever knowing who you are. This is crucial for maintaining a stable, high-quality app.
• Device & Network Information: To ensure the app displays correctly, Google Play Services may collect information like your device model, operating system version, and screen resolution. Your IP address may also be used to diagnose service problems and is not used by us to identify you or your precise location.

Our Technology Partners

We rely on existing, robust infrastructure to deliver our Service. Google Play Services is a fundamental part of the Android operating system, providing essential APIs for security (via Play Protect), app updates, and core functionalities. Our app relies on this framework to function, which is why it is our sole third-party service provider.

Data Retention & Your Control

Since we do not collect personal information, there is no personal data for us to retain or delete. Any anonymous, aggregated diagnostic data collected by our service provider is retained for a limited period necessary for analysis, after which it is typically deleted or further anonymized.

You remain in control of your device-level settings. Through your Android OS settings, you can manage app permissions and privacy controls for your entire device.

Navigating to External Sites

Our app is your gateway to great deals, which means we link out to external shopping and brand websites. For instance, when you tap on a deal for a product on Amazon, our app will direct you to the Amazon website or app. From that moment on, you are subject to Amazon's privacy policy and terms of service. We are not responsible for how they or any other third-party retailer collects or uses your information.

A Note for Younger Users

Offerloot is intended for a general audience and specifically for users aged 13 and older. We do not design our service for children, nor do we knowingly gather any data from them. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with information, please contact us so we can take immediate action.

Updates to This Policy

The digital world changes, and so may our practices. We may refine this privacy policy over time to reflect changes in our service or legal requirements. We will post any updates on this page, and the "Last Updated" date at the top will always reflect the latest version. We recommend checking back periodically to stay informed.
