This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our App.

  • Fix bugs and resolve technical issues
  • Communicate updates about the App (if you have opted in)

Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties.

We may share aggregated, non-identifiable usage data with analytics providers solely to improve the App. We may also share information if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of our users.

FTC Radar may use the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:

  • Google Play Services — for app distribution and functionality
  • Apple App Store — for app distribution (if applicable)
  • Firebase / Analytics — for crash reporting and usage analytics (if applicable)

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services integrated into the App.

Data Retention

We retain automatically collected data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy. You may request deletion of any personal data you have provided by contacting us.

Children's Privacy

FTC Radar does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. The publicly displayed FTC data (team names, numbers, competition results) is sourced from official, publicly accessible platforms. If you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the information processed through the App. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
