Privacy Policy

Effective

SummaryThe developer does not collect personal information. The ad shown when you save comes from Google AdMob, which processes device information such as the advertising identifier. Apple handles payment for Remove ads.

kvndh ("the developer") handles the personal information of people who use the Tapey app ("the app") under Korea's Personal Information Protection Act, as set out below.

01Purpose of processing

The app has no sign-up or login, and the developer does not collect personal information from users.

When you save a wallpaper, the app shows one full-screen ad. Google's ad service AdMob selects and displays that ad, and uses device information to show ads and measure how they perform.

02Information processed

The developer collects no personal information. The data the app uses is listed below. All of it is kept in the app's storage on your device, and the developer does not receive it.

Information that AdMob may collect when showing ads is listed in section 9.

  • Copies of the photos and background photos you pick: used to reopen your work
  • Layout and decoration settings, photo notes: used to reopen your work
  • Up to 3 recent projects with preview images: used for Recent on the start screen
  • Language choice, Remove ads purchase status, save count: used to run the app and to time the rating request

03Processing and retention period

The developer holds no personal information. Data in the app's storage is deleted when you delete the app. Wallpapers saved to the Photos app are deleted in the Photos app.

Information collected by AdMob is kept according to Google's Privacy Policy (policies.google.com/privacy).

04Disclosure to third parties

The developer does not provide users' personal information to third parties. When an ad is shown, however, the Google Mobile Ads SDK built into the app sends the information in section 9 directly to Google, as follows.

  • Recipient: Google LLC (United States), AdMob
  • Purpose: showing ads and measuring ad performance
  • Information: the device information and ad interaction records listed in section 9
  • When and how: sent over the internet when an ad is loaded and shown
  • Retention: as set out in Google's Privacy Policy

05Outsourcing of processing

The developer does not outsource the processing of personal information. Apple processes payment for Remove ads through the App Store, and payment information is governed by Apple's privacy policy. The developer does not receive your payment method or Apple Account details.

06Destruction of information

The developer holds no personal information, so there is nothing to destroy. Start over in the menu clears your current work, and deleting the app removes all of its data.

07Rights of users and legal guardians, and how to exercise them

Because the developer holds no personal information, there is nothing to access, correct, or delete. If you have questions, email us at the address below.

You can ask Google to give you access to, or delete, information collected by AdMob (policies.google.com/privacy). To refuse use of the advertising identifier, follow section 9. Payment information is held by Apple and is covered by Apple's privacy policy (apple.com/legal/privacy).

08Security measures

Only the photos you choose in the iOS photo picker or take with the camera are passed to the app. When saving a finished wallpaper, the app uses only the permission to add photos.

09Automatic collection and how to refuse it

The app does not use cookies or analytics tools. It includes the Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) for advertising, which may collect the information below when it loads and shows ads.

The first time you open the app, iOS shows the App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt. If you don't allow tracking, AdMob does not receive the advertising identifier (IDFA), and ads still appear. You can change this in iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.

In regions where ad consent is required, such as the European Economic Area, Google's consent form appears first. There, you can change your choices under Ad preferences at the bottom of the start screen.

After you buy Remove ads, the app stops starting AdMob from the next launch, so neither ads nor the tracking prompt appear.

  • Device identifiers, and the advertising identifier (IDFA) if you allow tracking
  • Approximate location estimated from your IP address
  • Ad interaction records such as impressions and taps
  • App performance, crash, and diagnostic information
