PRIVACY POLICY

Pipe Standard is a pipe dimension reference and visualization app provided by Xonnet Studio. This Privacy Policy explains how the app handles local preferences, saved spec images, and advertising-related data.

Key points:

• The app itself does not collect names, email addresses, account information, contacts, precise location, camera images, videos, project documents, or pipe lookup history.
• Pipe calculations and reference lookups are processed on the device.
• Google Mobile Ads may process advertising-related data under Google's policies and user settings.
• Spec card images are saved only when the user taps Save.

Pipe Standard stores only app preferences on the device, including theme mode, big font setting, selected pipe standard, and NPS or DN display unit. These settings are saved in the app's private local preferences.

Local app preferences can be removed by clearing the app's data from Android system settings or by deleting the app.

A spec card image is created only when the user taps Save. The image is written to the device gallery or Pictures folder.

• Pipe Standard does not upload saved spec images to a server.
• Saved spec images are not used for advertising or analytics.
• Saved spec images can be deleted from the device gallery by the user.

The app itself does not collect or build a personal profile from:

• Names, email addresses, phone numbers, or account information
• Precise location, contacts, calendar, phone, SMS, or Bluetooth data
• Camera images, videos, microphone audio, or project documents
• Pipe lookup history, pipe calculation data, or saved spec images

Pipe Standard uses Google Mobile Ads to display advertisements. While Pipe Standard does not collect personal profile data for pipe lookup or spec image saving, Google Mobile Ads SDK may process advertising-related data.

Google Mobile Ads may process data such as:

• Advertising ID or Android advertising signals where supported by the device
• Device information, app package name, app version, and language settings
• Ad interaction data, attribution signals, measurement data, and fraud-prevention signals
• IP address for approximate location and service operation

This data is handled by Google and its advertising partners under their applicable policies and user settings. Users can control personalized advertising through Android device settings and Google settings.

• Google Privacy Policy
• Google Ads Privacy
• Google Ad Settings

Pipe Standard uses only permissions needed for app operation, advertising, and user-requested image saving.

• INTERNET: Used for Google Mobile Ads delivery and ad loading.
• ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Used for ad loading and network availability checks.
• AD_ID and Android advertising services: May be used by Google Mobile Ads for ad delivery, attribution, fraud prevention, measurement, and privacy-preserving advertising features.
• ACCESS_ADSERVICES_AD_ID, ACCESS_ADSERVICES_ATTRIBUTION, and ACCESS_ADSERVICES_TOPICS: May be included by Google Mobile Ads or Google Play services for supported Android advertising features.
• WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: On Android 9 or lower, requested only when saving a spec card image to Pictures. On newer Android versions, the app saves through MediaStore without requesting broad storage access.
• WAKE_LOCK and FOREGROUND_SERVICE: May be included by Google Play services or Google Mobile Ads dependencies to support SDK operation. Pipe Standard does not run a user-facing background pipe calculation or monitoring service.

Pipe Standard does not request camera, microphone, precise location, contacts, calendar, phone, SMS, account, or Bluetooth permissions.

Pipe Standard does not upload or share pipe calculation data, local preferences, saved spec images, or user documents with Xonnet Studio servers.

Advertising-related data may be transmitted to Google Mobile Ads services and advertising partners for ad delivery, fraud prevention, campaign measurement, and advertising features.

• Local app preferences can be removed by clearing app data in Android system settings.
• Saved spec images can be deleted from the device gallery or Pictures folder.
• Personalized advertising can be controlled through Android device settings and Google settings.
• The Advertising ID can be reset through device settings where supported.

Pipe Standard does not collect personal information from users of any age. Google Mobile Ads may process advertising-related data as described above, subject to Google's policies, app configuration, and user settings.

The app is intended to maintain age-appropriate content and follow applicable Google Play Families Policy requirements where they apply.

Pipe lookup and calculation data are processed locally on the device. Pipe Standard does not transmit that data to Xonnet Studio servers.

Advertising-related data may be transmitted to Google Mobile Ads services over secure connections according to Google's SDK behavior and policies. Local data follows the device's security settings.

This Privacy Policy may be updated when app behavior, permissions, advertising services, or legal requirements change. Important changes may be communicated through app updates, in-app notices, or the app store listing.

This policy is intended to describe the app's privacy practices for users in regions where applicable privacy laws, including GDPR, CCPA, PIPA, and similar regulations, may apply.

If you have questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or Pipe Standard's practices, please contact us at xonnetstudio@gmail.com.

This Privacy Policy takes effect from the time of app installation and use.
