We at DevStar Solutions, LLC (“we”, “our” or “us”) respect your privacy and are strongly committed to keeping secure any information we obtain from you or about you. This Privacy Policy describes our practices with respect to Personal Information we collect from or about you when you the "Tip Star" app.
When you use the receipt scanning feature, we send the photograph you select to OpenAI for processing. As of May 20th 2024, their privacy policy (https://openai.com/enterprise-privacy/) states that they may retain your data for up to 30 days, and then delete it unless legally required to keep it.
We also may retain receipt images for up to 6 months for the sole purpose of improving the receipt scanning feature. Receipt images we retain are not associated with any additional from you or about you or your device.
If you have removed ads, e.g. by purchasing a full version or subscription, then Tip Star does not collect any information for advertising.
Otherwise: this app uses AdMob (Google Inc.) as an advertising distribution tool, and AdMob may automatically acquire user information, including:
IP address, which may be used to estimate the general location of a device.
Non-user related crash logs, which may be used to diagnose problems and improve the SDK. Diagnostic information may also be used for advertising and analytics purposes.
User-associated performance data such as app launch time, hang rate, or energy usage, which may be used to evaluate user behavior, understand the effectiveness of existing product features, and plan new features. Performance data may also be used for displaying ads, including sharing with other entities that display ads.
A Device ID, such as the device's advertising identifier or other app- or developer-bounded device identifiers, which may be used for the purpose of third-party advertising and analytics.
Advertising data, such as advertisements the user has seen, may be used to power analytics and advertising features.
Other user product interactions like app launch taps, and interaction information, like video views, may be used to improve advertising performance.
For additional information on how Google handles your data, see:
The AdMob Data Disclosure https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/privacy/data-disclosure
Google's advertisement privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
Outside of the above situations, we do not currently collect other data entered into Tip Star, such as names and purchase details.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post an updated version on this page.
