The Application uses third-party services:

Send requests to matcode.help@gmail.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (UODO).

6. Tracking Mechanisms / Device Identifiers

The Application does not store traditional "cookies" as understood by web browsers, but SDKs used (e.g., Google AdMob, Firebase Analytics, Facebook SDK) may use device or advertising identifiers (GAID on Android, IDFA on iOS) for analytics, ad personalization, or authentication. You can manage advertising identifiers (limit tracking, reset ID) in your device's system settings.

7. Data Security

We use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data, including data transmission encryption (e.g., TLS), access control, and regular backups (if applicable). In the event of a personal data breach that may result in a high risk to your rights or freedoms, we will inform you in accordance with applicable regulations (Art. 34 GDPR).

8. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for persons under 13 years of age (or the minimum age required by law in your country to consent to data processing). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under this age. If we become aware that a child under the required age has provided us with personal data without parental consent, we will delete it immediately. If you are a parent or guardian and know that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at matcode.help@gmail.com so we can take appropriate action.

We may periodically update this Privacy Policy. New versions will be published in the Application and on the website at https://matcode.eu/quickans/policy-en.html. We recommend checking this page regularly. For significant changes that may affect your rights, we will try to inform you more directly (e.g., in-app notification).
