1. Information We Collect

We collect limited information to understand usage and improve our Services. The types of data may include:

  • Website (https://www.countdownkings.com): We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized usage data, such as the number of visitors, page views, referral sources, device type, browser information, and approximate location (derived from IP address). This does not include personally identifiable information unless you voluntarily provide it (e.g., via contact forms).
  • PC and Mac Apps: We do not collect any user data from these applications.
  • Mobile Apps (iOS and Android): Please refer to our dedicated Mobile Apps Privacy Policy for full details.

We do not collect sensitive personal data, such as health information, financial details (except as processed by third parties for payments), or data from children.

2. How We Collect Information

  • Automatically: On our website, data is collected automatically through Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar tracking technologies.
  • Through Third Parties: For payments in PC and Mac apps, data is collected by Gumroad.com (our payment processor). For mobile apps, data is collected via the app stores’ built-in mechanisms and Firebase services.
  • User-Provided: If you contact us via email or other means, we may collect the information you provide.

3. How We Use Information

The collected data is used solely for basic analytical purposes:

  • To track the number of visitors and users across our Services.
  • To understand general usage patterns and improve our website and apps.
  • We do not use the data for marketing, personalization, or any other purposes.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell or rent your data. We may share data with third parties only as necessary:

  • Google Analytics: For website visitor tracking. Google’s privacy practices apply.
  • Gumroad.com: For processing payments in PC and Mac apps. Gumroad handles payment-related data under their own privacy policy.
  • App Stores (Apple and Google) + Firebase: For mobile apps, as described in our Mobile Apps Privacy Policy.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose data if required by law, to protect our rights, or in response to legal processes.

5. Data Storage and Retention

We do not directly store user data. Any relevant data is stored by the third-party services mentioned above:

  • Google Analytics data is retained according to Google’s policies.
  • Gumroad retains payment data as needed for transactions.
  • Mobile app data (including Firebase) is managed according to our Mobile Apps Privacy Policy.
  • We retain any user-provided information (e.g., emails) only as long as necessary to respond to inquiries.

Data may be stored on servers in the US, EU, or other locations depending on the third-party provider.

6. Security Measures

Since we do not store data directly, we rely on the security practices of our third-party providers (Google, Gumroad, Apple, and Google). These include encryption, access controls, and compliance with industry standards. We take reasonable steps to protect any information you provide directly to us, but no transmission over the internet is completely secure.

7. Your Rights

You have rights regarding your data, including:

  • Access: Request a copy of your data.
  • Correction: Update inaccurate data.
  • Deletion: Request removal of your data (subject to legal obligations).
  • Opt-Out: Opt out of analytics tracking (e.g., via browser settings for cookies or Google’s opt-out tools).
  • Objection: Object to processing in certain cases.

To exercise these rights, contact us at info@countdownkings.com. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe (typically within 30 days). If you are in the EU, you may also contact your local data protection authority.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our Services are not intended for children under 13 (or 16 in some regions). We do not knowingly collect data from children. If we become aware of such collection, we will delete it promptly.

9. Mobile Apps

For detailed information about data collection, permissions, Firebase usage, and privacy practices in our mobile apps (Minimalistic Countdown Timer and Countdown Timer Nano), please refer to our dedicated Mobile Apps Privacy Policy.
