This Privacy Policy applies to the Buddy Digital Pet App (hereby referred to as the "Application") for mobile devices, which was created by Naveen Dewangan (hereby referred to as the “Service Provider”) as a free service. The service is provided “AS IS,” and your use of the Application is subject to this policy.

Information Collection and Use

The Application collects information when you download and use it. This information may include:

• Your device’s Internet Protocol address (e.g., IP address)
• The pages of the Application that you visit, the time and date of your visit, and the time spent on those pages
• The time spent on the Application
• The operating system used on your mobile device
• Any other information you provide through the application for customizing your digital pet experience (e.g., pet name, breed, preferences, etc.)

The Application does not collect precise information about the location of your mobile device. However, it does collect your device’s approximate location, which helps the Service Provider determine general geographical information used in the following ways:

1. Geolocation Services: The Service Provider uses location data to offer location-based features, such as pet activity recommendations or suggestions for nearby pet-related events or services.
2. Analytics and Improvements: Aggregated and anonymized location data helps the Service Provider analyze user behavior, identify trends, and improve the functionality and performance of the Application.
3. Third-Party Services: From time to time, the Service Provider may transmit anonymized location data to external services to improve and optimize the user experience.

The Service Provider may also use the information you provide to contact you with important information, updates, and promotions related to the Application.

For an enhanced experience, the Service Provider may require certain personally identifiable information, such as your email address or username, which will be retained and used according to this Privacy Policy.

Third Party Access

The Application may periodically share aggregated, anonymized data with third-party services to help improve the Application and its features. These services assist in enhancing user experience but do not have access to personally identifiable information unless explicitly stated.

The Application uses third-party services that may have their own Privacy Policies regarding data handling. Below are links to the Privacy Policies of the third-party service providers:
