We collect only the minimum amount of information necessary to provide the service. We will not sell your personal data, will not use your translations for purposes other than your consent, and will not proactively collect information from children under the age of 13.
If you are a resident of the European Union or the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (see below). If you are a resident of California, you have the rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). If your region has other data protection laws, we will comply with local laws.

Do We Share Your Information?
We do not sell your personal data. Information will be shared only in the following limited scenarios:
Service Providers: We share necessary information with translation engines, cloud service providers, and crash analysis tools (such as Firebase) that we partner with. These service providers will only process the data as instructed by us and may not use it for any other purpose.
Advertising Partners: We share anonymous device identifiers with platforms such as Google AdMob and Meta for displaying relevant ads within the app. You can turn off personalized ads in your device settings.
Legal Requirements: We may share necessary information when required by law, regulation, judicial process, or government mandate. We will limit the scope of disclosure to the extent possible and will notify you in advance where permitted.
Company Transactions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as part of assets, and we will ensure that the recipient continues to comply with this Privacy Policy.
Your Control over Information
Permission Management: You can turn camera, microphone, and storage permissions on or off at any time through your device settings.
Limit Ad Tracking: Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Advertising and enable "Limit Ad Tracking". Once enabled, the system will prevent this application from accessing your device's Advertising Identifier (IDFA), and third-party advertisers will be unable to deliver personalized ads based on your usage behavior.
GDPR Rights:
Right of Access: Request a copy of your personal data held by us.
Right of Correction: Request correction of inaccurate information.
Right of Erasure: Request the deletion of your data.

How to Exercise Your Rights: Please contact us via the email address at the end of this document.
Data Storage
Storage Location: Your data may be stored on our and our service providers' servers located in the EU, the US, Singapore, and other locations. Because we may use translation engines located in the EU, Singapore, or the US, your translation data may be transferred across borders. We will ensure encryption during transmission and require the recipient to sign a data processing agreement compliant with GDPR standards.
Retention Period: We will anonymize your data to prevent it from being associated with any specific individual. Anonymized information is no longer considered personal data and can be used long-term for legitimate purposes such as statistical analysis and security protection.
Data Security Measures
We adopt industry-standard security measures to protect your data and prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or loss.
We will regularly assess security risks and continuously optimize our protection strategies based on actual circumstances. While we are committed to data security, please understand that there is no absolutely secure method of transmission or storage in the internet environment.
In the event of a data breach, we will promptly notify the regulatory authorities in accordance with GDPR and applicable laws, and notify you if necessary.
Children's Privacy
This application is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not proactively collect children's personal information.
If we discover that we have unintentionally collected information from children under the age of 13, we will delete it immediately and take necessary measures to prevent it from happening again. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us via the email address provided at the end of this document.
Terms Updated
We may revise this Privacy Policy based on changes in laws and regulations or business needs. Significant changes (such as expanded data collection scope or adjustments to cross-border data transfer policies) will be notified to you through prominent notices within the application.
Your continued use of this application constitutes your agreement to the updated policy. If you do not agree, please uninstall this application and stop using it.
