- EUROPEAN PRIVACY RIGHTS
If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with applicable comprehensive data-protection laws, additional rights may apply.
Where applicable, we will process personal information in accordance with the requirements of those laws, including applicable requirements concerning lawful bases for processing, transparency, data-subject rights, international transfers, and data security.
If applicable, requests may be submitted to:
- THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND LINKS
Our Services may contain links to third-party websites, applications, platforms, or services.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, security, or policies of third parties.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing them with personal information.
Third-party services integrated into our website or application may independently collect information according to their own policies and contractual arrangements.
- MOBILE APPLICATIONS AND THIRD-PARTY SDKs
If our mobile application uses third-party software development kits (“SDKs”), APIs, analytics services, advertising services, crash-reporting services, authentication services, or other third-party technologies, those technologies may process certain information as necessary to provide their functionality.
We will review and configure third-party SDKs consistent with our disclosed data practices and applicable Google Play requirements.
The types of data processed may include device information, application information, diagnostics, usage information, identifiers, and other information depending on the specific SDK.
The actual third-party SDKs used by the application should be reflected in Amped’s Google Play Data Safety disclosures.
- GOOGLE PLAY AND ANDROID DATA PRACTICES
If an Amped application is distributed through Google Play, we will provide the disclosures required by Google Play concerning the application’s collection, use, sharing, security, retention, and deletion of user data.
Our Google Play Data Safety disclosures will be maintained consistently with the application’s actual data practices.
Where the application requests access to personal or sensitive information that users would not reasonably expect to be required for a particular feature, the application will provide the disclosures and permissions required by applicable Google Play policies.
Google Play policies may impose additional requirements concerning sensitive permissions, personal information, children’s data, account deletion, third-party SDKs, and other data practices.
- CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
Our Services are not intended for children under the applicable age of consent.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children for purposes prohibited by applicable law.
If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child in circumstances where collection was not permitted, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.
Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided personal information to Amped may contact:
- DO NOT TRACK
Some web browsers provide a “Do Not Track” signal.
Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for responding to Do Not Track signals across all websites and services, our Services may not respond to such signals unless required by applicable law.
- CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our Services, technology, business practices, legal requirements, or privacy practices.
When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy.
If we make material changes, we may provide additional notice when required by applicable law.
Your continued use of the Services after an updated Privacy Policy becomes effective constitutes acknowledgment of the updated policy to the extent permitted by law.
