Third-Party Services
Our app uses Google Firebase Analytics to collect anonymous usage statistics, so we can understand how the app is used and improve it. This includes which screens are opened, actions such as changing the design or language, sharing, and turning reminders on or off, along with device information (model, operating system and app version), a random app-instance identifier, and an approximate location (country or city) derived from your IP address. We do not collect your name, email address, contacts or precise location, and we do not use the advertising ID. This data is processed by Google under its privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. We do not share your personal information with third parties except as necessary to provide app functionality.
