Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Universal AC Remote Control ("the app", "we", "our", or "us") handles information when you use the app.
1. What the App Does
Universal AC Remote Control helps users browse infrared remote profiles and send IR commands from supported devices. The app may also show ads and load app configuration needed for normal operation.
2. Information We Collect
We do not intentionally collect personal information directly from you through the app, such as your full name, postal address, contact list, photos, audio recordings, or precise GPS location.
The app may process limited technical data that is necessary to work, which can include:
- app and device technical details needed to load content or serve ads;
- network request data such as IP address, request metadata, and response logs;
- temporary in-app settings like sound and vibration preferences stored on the device.
3. How Information Is Used
The app uses information only for app functionality and support, including to:
- load remote profile data and supporting app content;
- detect and use infrared capabilities on supported devices;
- display ads and retrieve ad configuration;
- provide app feedback features such as vibration and sound effects;
- open external links when you choose to do so.
4. Permissions
The Android app currently declares these permissions and features:
- INTERNET: used to fetch remote data, app configuration, and advertising content.
- TRANSMIT_IR: used to send infrared commands to compatible devices.
- VIBRATE: used to provide haptic feedback.
- consumer IR hardware feature: declared so the app can work with devices that support an IR blaster.
5. Advertising
The app uses Google Mobile Ads / AdMob. Google and its partners may collect or process data such as advertising identifiers, approximate location derived from IP address, app interactions, diagnostics, and device information, subject to their own privacy terms.
Learn more at Google Privacy Policy.
6. Third-Party Services and Content Sources
To operate, the app may connect to third-party services or hosting providers that deliver remote profile files, configuration data, and ads. These providers may receive standard technical information as part of normal internet communication.
This can include your IP address, device type, app version, and request timing or response metadata.
7. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. Information may be shared only when necessary to run the app, such as with ad providers, content hosts, or service providers involved in delivering app functionality.
8. Data Retention
We do not maintain user account records for this app. Temporary app settings and state may remain on your device. Third-party providers may retain technical or advertising-related data according to their own policies and retention schedules.
9. Children's Privacy
The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. Security
We use reasonable measures to support the app and its connected services, but no method of electronic storage or transmission over the internet is completely secure.
11. Your Choices
You can stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it. You may also control certain advertising and privacy preferences through your device settings and any controls made available by third-party providers.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page.
