Privacy Policy

👋1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how TOURE ABIDOU ("we", "us" or "our") collects, uses, stores and protects information when you use our mobile applications distributed through Google Play and any related services (together, the "App" or "Services").

We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the French Data Protection Act (Loi Informatique et Libertés) and the Google Play Developer Program Policies.

By downloading, installing or using the App, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with it, please do not use the App.

🏢2. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for your personal data is:

📋3. Information We Collect

We collect only the information necessary to provide and improve the App. Depending on how you use it, this may include:

3.1 Information you provide directly

• Contact details — such as your name and email address when you contact our support or create an account (if the App offers accounts).
• User content — any feedback, messages or content you choose to submit through the App.

3.2 Information collected automatically

• Device information — device model, operating system version, language, screen size and unique device or advertising identifiers.
• Usage data — features used, screens viewed, session duration, interactions and app performance.
• Diagnostic data — crash reports, error logs and technical performance data.
• Approximate location — derived from your IP address (country or region level); we do not collect precise GPS location unless you explicitly grant permission for a feature that requires it.

3.3 Information we do not collect

We do not intentionally collect sensitive data such as health information, biometric data, political opinions, religious beliefs or financial card numbers. Any in-app purchases are processed entirely by Google Play; we never receive your full payment details.

⚙️4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate and maintain the App and its features.
• Improve, personalise and develop new features based on how the App is used.
• Diagnose technical problems, fix bugs and monitor app stability.
• Respond to your questions, requests and support messages.
• Display advertising (where applicable), including personalised ads only with your consent.
• Process and verify in-app purchases or subscriptions through Google Play.
• Detect, prevent and address fraud, abuse, security issues and violations of our terms.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our rights.

⚖️5. Legal Basis for Processing

Under the GDPR, we process your personal data on the following legal bases:

🔐6. App Permissions

The App may request certain Android permissions to function properly. Permissions are requested only when needed, and you can manage or revoke them at any time in your device settings (Settings → Apps → [App name] → Permissions).

• Internet / network access — to load content, show ads and send diagnostic data.
• Notifications — to send you updates or reminders, only if you allow it.
• Camera, photos or storage — only if a feature requires it, and only after you grant permission.
• Location — only if a feature explicitly needs it and you grant permission.

Refusing a permission may limit some features but will not prevent you from using the rest of the App.

🔗7. Third-Party Services

The App may use trusted third-party services that collect information used to identify you or your device. Each has its own privacy policy:

For users in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, personalised advertising is shown only after consent is collected through a consent form compliant with the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework. You can change your choice at any time from the App's privacy settings, and you can reset or opt out of your Android advertising ID in your device settings (Settings → Google → Ads).

🤝8. How We Share Information

We share personal data only in the following circumstances:

• Service providers — with the third-party processors listed above, bound by data processing agreements, solely to provide services on our behalf.
• Legal requirements — when required by law, court order or public authority, or to protect our rights, property or safety and that of our users.
• Business transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, subject to this Privacy Policy.
• With your consent — in any other case where you have given explicit consent.

⏳9. Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy:

• Account data — for as long as your account is active, and deleted within 30 days of a deletion request.
• Support communications — up to 3 years after our last exchange.
• Analytics and diagnostic data — up to 14 months, then deleted or anonymised.
• Legal and accounting records — for the period required by French law.

🛡️10. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration, including:

• Encryption of data in transit using HTTPS/TLS.
• Access controls limiting data access to authorised personnel only.
• Use of reputable, security-certified service providers.
• Regular review of our data collection, storage and processing practices.

No method of transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach likely to affect your rights, we will notify you and the competent authority as required by law.

🌍11. International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area (for example, in the United States). Where this happens, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, to guarantee a level of protection equivalent to that in the EU.

✋12. Your Rights

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

To exercise any of these rights, email us at contact@toureabidou.store. We will respond within one month. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing your request.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority, the CNIL (Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés), 3 Place de Fontenoy, TSA 80715, 75334 Paris Cedex 07 — www.cnil.fr.

🗑️13. Account & Data Deletion

You can request deletion of your account and all associated personal data at any time:

• Send an email to contact@toureabidou.store with the subject "Data Deletion Request", including the App name and the email address or identifier linked to your data.
• If the App offers accounts, you may also use the "Delete account" option in the App's settings.

We will delete your data within 30 days of your request, except where we are legally required to keep certain records (for example, transaction records for tax purposes). Uninstalling the App stops further data collection but does not by itself delete data already collected.

🧒14. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed at children under the age of 13, and in the EU, under 15 in France (the age of digital consent). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children below these ages without verifiable parental consent.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will promptly delete that information.

🔄15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements or other factors. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For significant changes, we will notify you through the App or by other appropriate means.

We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the App after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
