Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how the My Treasures app (“the app”) handles information when you use it. The app is designed to work primarily on your device and does not use an external database to store your content.
Summary
- Your “treasures” (including any details you enter and any locations you save) are stored locally on your device.
- The developer does not receive your saved treasures or saved locations.
- The app displays banner advertisements using Google AdMob.
- Google AdMob may collect limited device information to display and measure ads.
Information you create in the app
The app lets you create and store entries (your “treasures”) on your device. This may include text, photos (if you add them), and optional location details associated with an item.
Local storage: Your app data is stored on your device (for example via on-device storage such as Core Data). The developer does not operate a server to collect or store your treasures.
Location
If you grant location permission, the app can use your device’s location to help you save the location of an item. Location information used for this purpose is stored locally on your device as part of your saved items.
The app does not upload your saved locations to the developer’s servers, because the developer does not run an external database for your items.
Advertising (Google AdMob)
The app shows banner advertisements provided by Google AdMob (Google Mobile Ads SDK). Google may collect and use information from your device to display ads and measure their performance. This can include device identifiers and other technical information.
The developer does not receive your personal identity from Google AdMob. The developer does not sell your personal information.

Tracking and personalised advertising
The app does not ask you for permission to track you across other companies’ apps and websites (App Tracking Transparency). Depending on your device settings and Google’s ad configuration, ads may be contextual (non-personalised) or personalised. You can control ad personalisation through your Google account settings and your device settings where available.
Data sharing
The developer does not share your locally-stored treasures or saved locations with third parties. Third-party ad technology (Google AdMob) may process limited device information for advertising and measurement as described above.
Data retention
Your treasures and saved locations remain on your device until you delete them or uninstall the app. Ad-related data processed by Google is retained according to Google’s policies.
Security
The app stores your content locally on your device. You are responsible for securing access to your device (for example with a passcode). No method of storage is 100% secure, but the app is designed to minimise data leaving your device.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated from time to time (for example, if features change or advertising services change). The “Effective date” at the top will be updated when changes are made.
