Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how iZone Solutions (PVT) LTD ("we", "us", "our") handles information in the Android app G'day Mate: Aussie Translator (package name com.izone.gdaymate, the "App"). By using the App, you agree to this policy.
1. Information that stays on your device
- Text you translate. Text you type, paste, select in another app or share to G'day Mate is processed entirely on your device using the App's built-in Aussie slang dictionary. It is never sent to us or to any server.
- Screenshots. If you choose to scan a screenshot, its text is read on your device with Google ML Kit's offline text recognition. The image is not stored, copied or uploaded.
- Pronunciation. When you tap a speaker button, words are read aloud by your phone's own text-to-speech engine. The App does not record or upload audio.
- Saved words, history and settings. Your favourite words, translation history, quiz score and settings are stored only on your device. You can clear your history at any time in the App, and uninstalling the App deletes all of this data.
We do not operate servers for the App, we do not require an account, and we do not collect, sell or share your personal information.
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The App is free and supported by ads served by Google AdMob. To show, personalise (where permitted) and measure ads, and to prevent fraud, Google may automatically collect and process:
- your device's advertising ID and other device identifiers
- device and app information, such as device model, operating system version and how you interact with ads
- approximate location derived from your IP address
- diagnostic information, such as crash and performance data related to ads
This information is collected by Google, not by us, and is governed by the Google Privacy Policy. Learn more about how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
3. Your choices and consent
- If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland or another region where consent is required, the App asks for your choices before ads are personalised, using Google's consent tool. You can change your choices at any time in Settings › Privacy & ad choices in the App.
- You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalised ads, in your device's settings (on most devices: Settings › Google › Ads or Settings › Privacy › Ads).
- You can stop all data collection by the App by uninstalling it.
4. Permissions
The App uses the Internet permission only to load ads and the consent form. It does not request access to your contacts, camera, microphone, precise location or files. Screenshots are chosen by you through Android's system photo picker, which gives the App access only to the image you select.
5. Children's privacy
The App is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through the App, please contact us and we will help address it.
6. Data security and retention
Because your translations, saved words and history never leave your device, they are protected by your device's own security and kept until you delete them or uninstall the App. Information collected by Google for advertising is retained according to Google's policies.
7. Third-party links
Ads and links in the App may take you to third-party websites or apps. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, so please review their policies.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the updated policy.
