Privacy Policy

Developer: Next Step Apps LLC
Effective Date: March 31, 2026

 

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how Next Step Apps LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use our mobile applications (the “Apps”).

​

If you have any questions, please contact us using the information provided at the end of this policy.

​

Data Collection

We aim to collect as little personal information as possible.

​

We do not collect personally identifiable information such as name, email address, or account data for general app usage.

 

Depending on how you use our Apps and your device settings, we or our service providers may process:

• Analytics Data
  We use tools such as Google Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with our Apps (e.g., screens viewed, features used, and general usage patterns).

• Crash and Diagnostics Data
  We use services such as Firebase Crashlytics to collect crash reports and diagnostic information.

• Device and Technical Data
  This may include device identifiers, device type, operating system, and app version.

• Advertising Data (where applicable)
  Some of our Apps use Google AdMob to display ads. AdMob and its partners may process device identifiers, IP address, and ad interaction data.

• Optional Feedback
  If you submit feedback through our Apps, we may store that information using backend services such as Firebase.

 

We do not require user accounts for core functionality in our Apps.

 

Advertising

 

Some of our Apps display advertisements using Google AdMob.

 

AdMob and its partners may collect and process:

• Device identifiers

• IP address

• Ad interaction data

 

Personalized ads are only shown where permitted and when you have provided the required consent (e.g., via Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) or App Tracking Transparency (ATT) on iOS).

 

If you do not provide consent, only non-personalized ads will be shown where supported.

 

User Consent

• EEA / UK / Switzerland and similar regions
  We use consent management tools such as Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) where required.

• United States
  Depending on your state of residence, you may have the right to opt out of targeted advertising or the sale or sharing of personal information. You can exercise these choices through in-app privacy options where available, or through your device and platform settings.

 

Data Sharing

​

We may use third-party services such as:

• Google Firebase (Analytics, Crashlytics, data storage)

• Google AdMob (Advertising)

 

These providers process data in accordance with their own privacy policies.

Data Security

 

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect information. However, no system is completely secure.

 

Children’s Privacy

 

Our Apps are not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

 

Your Rights

 

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your data, or to object to certain uses.
