1. Introduction

SmokeStop (“we”, “our”, or “us”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains how the SmokeStop mobile application (“App”) handles user information.

SmokeStop is designed as a privacy-first, offline-focused application to help users quit smoking through tracking, motivation, and habit-building tools.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Personal Data

SmokeStop does not collect personally identifiable information (PII) such as:

  • Name

  • Email address

  • Phone number

  • Precise location

You can use the app without creating an account.

2.2 User-Entered Data (Stored Locally Only)

The app allows users to enter and store:

  • Smoking habits (cigarettes per day, cost, quit date)

  • Craving logs and relapse records

  • Personal notes (e.g., “Why I Quit”)

  • Goals, savings targets, and progress data

⚠️ This data:

  • Is stored only on your device

  • Is never transmitted to any server

  • Is not accessible to the developer

2.3 Automatically Collected Data (Third-Party Only)

SmokeStop uses Google AdMob to display ads. AdMob may collect:

  • Device identifiers (including Advertising ID)

  • Approximate location (non-precise)

  • App interaction data

  • Diagnostics and performance data (e.g., crash logs)

This data is collected and processed directly by Google, not by SmokeStop.

3. How Information Is Used

Data is used for:

  • Providing core app functionality (tracking, progress, insights)

  • Displaying ads via Google AdMob

  • Improving app performance and stability

We do not:

  • Sell user data

  • Store personal data on servers

  • Share user-entered data with third parties

4. Data Storage & Security

  • All user data is stored locally on your device

  • No cloud storage or backend servers are used

  • Data remains on your device unless manually exported

If you uninstall the app or clear data, your information may be permanently deleted.

5. Data Sharing

SmokeStop does not share user data with third parties.

However, third-party services (Google AdMob) may independently collect limited data as described above and operate under their own privacy policies.

6. Advertising (AdMob)

SmokeStop displays ads using Google AdMob.

AdMob may:

  • Use Advertising ID for personalized or non-personalized ads

  • Collect device and usage data

  • Measure ad performance and prevent fraud

You can control ad personalization in your device settings.
