Summary

Pick Your Bias has no accounts, no login, and no analytics. We do not collect personal information ourselves.

The app is free and supported by advertising. To show ads, we use Google AdMob, which may collect and use device identifiers and advertising data. What AdMob may collect, and your control over it, is described below.

What We Collect

We — the developer — collect nothing. Pick Your Bias has no server, no account system, and no analytics. We never receive your gameplay data, your choices, or any identifier from your device.

Advertising

The app displays ads through Google AdMob (Google LLC):

• A banner ad at the bottom of the game screen
• A full-screen ad shown occasionally between games — never in the middle of a tournament

To serve and measure ads, Google may collect and process data such as your advertising identifier (IDFA), approximate location derived from IP address, device information, and ad interaction data. This processing is performed by Google, not by us, and is governed by Google’s own policies:

• Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• How Google uses information from partner sites and apps: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

Your Choices

• App Tracking Transparency (ATT). After you finish your first tournament, iOS will ask whether Pick Your Bias may track you across apps and websites. If you decline, ads still appear, but they are non-personalized — no feature of the game is limited either way. You can change this any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
• Consent (EEA / UK / Switzerland). If you are in a region covered by GDPR, a consent form appears before ads are loaded, letting you choose how your data is used. You can revisit that choice at any time from the app’s Settings → Ad Privacy Options.

Network Activity

Besides ad requests, the app makes one other type of request: an occasional, anonymous GET to a public content delivery network to check for updated tournament data (idol/group names, positions, generations, and theme colors — the same kind of factual content bundled inside the app). This request:

• Contains no user identifiers, device identifiers, or advertising identifiers
