Overview
Earthstory Audio Tours ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our app handles information when you use it.

Information We Don't Collect:
Earthstory Audio Tours is designed with privacy in mind:
We do not collect personal information such as your name, email address, phone number, or location data
We do not require account creation or sign-in
We do not collect browsing or usage analytics about which audio tours you listen to
We do not display advertisements
We do not offer financial, health, or sensitive personal services

Information Collected During In-App Purchases:
When you purchase audio tours through Google Play Store or Apple App Store, payment processing is handled directly by these platforms. We do not:
Store your payment information
See your credit card or billing details
Retain purchase history on our servers

The payment platforms (Google Play and Apple) handle all financial transactions according to their own privacy policies.
You should review their privacy policies separately:
Google Play Services Privacy Policy
Apple Privacy Policy

Device Permissions:
Earthstory Audio Tours only requires basic permissions necessary to function:
Audio permissions to play audio content to your speakers or headphones
Storage permissions to store downloaded audio tours on your device
We do not use these permissions to collect personal data.

Data Stored On Your Device:
All downloaded audio tours are stored locally on your device. This data belongs to you. You can delete it at any time by removing the app or clearing app data through your device settings.

Third-Party Services
Our app may use standard third-party SDKs or libraries for basic functionality (such as analytics frameworks or crash reporting), but we have configured these to collect minimal data and not to track personal information.

Children's Privacy
Earthstory Audio Tours does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Our app is suitable for all ages and does not include features that collect or request personal data from any user, including children.

Changes to This Privacy Policy:
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. We recommend reviewing it periodically for any changes. Your continued use of the app after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
