Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy governs the use of Classic Big Keyboard ("the App"), developed by Apps Technologies ("we", "our", or "us"). We take your privacy very seriously. By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 What We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit sensitive personal data such as passwords, credit card numbers, government IDs, or the actual content of your messages. What you type stays on your device (except for anonymous search queries if you use a built-in search feature, if applicable).

2.2 Non-Personal Information

The App collects non-personally identifiable information to enhance user experience and improve stability, including:

• Device Information: Type of mobile device, operating system version, and unique device identifiers (Android ID/Advertising ID).
• Usage Data: Language preferences, general location data (country/city), session lengths, and feature usage patterns.
• Crash Logs: Technical data sent when the App encounters an error (via Firebase Crashlytics) to help us fix bugs.

3. AI & Predictive Text Technology

To provide features such as next-word prediction and auto-correction, the App utilizes Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs).

• On-Device Processing: The App learns your typing behavior to provide better word predictions. Crucially, all AI text analysis and personal dictionary learning are performed locally on your device. We do not transmit your keystrokes to external servers for AI processing.
• AI Training Data & Bias: Our underlying AI models are trained on vast, publicly available text datasets from the internet (such as Wikipedia). Consequently, the AI may inadvertently reflect historical biases, political stereotypes, or controversial viewpoints present in those public datasets.
• No Editorial Control: Suggestions generated by the AI are statistical probabilities based on context. They do not represent the opinions, political views, or endorsements of the Developer.
• Personalized Dictionary: The App creates a local dictionary to adapt to your unique writing style. This data is stored strictly on your device and is not accessible to us.

4. Keyboard Permissions

To deliver a fully functional keyboard experience, the App requires specific permissions:

• Keyboard Service: Required to process touch events and input text into other applications.
• Microphone Access: Optional; used solely for voice-to-text functionality if you choose to enable it. We do not record or store audio.

5. Third-Party Services & Ads

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your Personally Identifiable Information (PII) to outside parties. However, the App integrates with trusted third-party partners:

• Analytics & Stability: We use Google Firebase and Crashlytics to analyze app performance and crashes.
• Advertising Partners: We use platforms such as Google AdMob, Meta (Facebook) Audience Network, and AppLovin to serve advertisements.
• Data Usage: These platforms may use cookies, device identifiers (GAID), and limited behavioral data to serve relevant ads based on your interactions. You can opt out of personalized ads via your Android device settings.

6. In-App Purchases

Any purchases made within the App (including subscriptions or premium features) are processed securely through the Google Play In-App Billing library.

• Security: We never access or store your payment details (credit card numbers, bank accounts). All financial transactions are managed entirely by Google.
• Refunds: Refunds for issues such as bugs, missing features, or unmet expectations are granted at our discretion on a case-by-case basis, in accordance with Google Play policies.

7. Coins Collection Feature

The App includes a virtual "coins" feature, allowing users to earn and spend coins for in-app benefits.

• No Real-World Value: Coins are virtual and cannot be exchanged for real-world currency or items.
• Earning Coins: Coins can be earned by using the app, completing tasks, or engaging with ads.
• Spending Coins: Coins can be used to unlock discounts or remove ads temporarily. Spent coins are non-recoverable.
• Coin Storage & Privacy: A unique, anonymous user ID is generated locally to track your balance, which is stored remotely on our secure servers.
• Loss of Coins: While we store balances remotely, coin data may still be lost due to uninstallation, device changes, technical issues, or connection errors. We are not responsible for lost coins and are not obligated to restore them.
• Feature Availability: We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the coin feature at any time without notice. Use of the coin feature is at your own discretion and is provided "as is."

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure of data. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information.

9. Your Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your data:

• Access & Deletion: Since we do not collect personal PII, you can "delete" your data by clearing the App's storage or uninstalling the App. This resets your local dictionary and advertising ID.
• Opt-Out: You may opt out of personalized advertising through your device settings (Settings > Google > Ads > Delete Advertising ID).

10. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take immediate steps to delete such information.

11. Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting. Your continued use of the App after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. Please review this page periodically.
