Privacy Policy – Metal Detector Pro
Metal Detector Pro is a utility application designed to detect magnetic field strength using your device's built-in magnetometer sensor. It does not require user registration or login and does not use Firebase. Google AdMob is used to display advertisements as described below.
1. Introduction
Welcome to Metal Detector Pro. This Privacy Policy explains how Metal Detector Pro (“we,” “our,” or “the app”) handles information when you use our mobile application.
Metal Detector Pro is a utility application designed to detect magnetic field strength using the magnetic sensor (magnetometer) available on compatible Android devices.
We respect your privacy and aim to collect only the information necessary to operate the application and display advertisements.
Metal Detector Pro does not require user registration or login and does not use Firebase. The app does not operate its own user account system or require you to provide personal information to access its core features.
By using Metal Detector Pro, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Personal Information
Metal Detector Pro does not require you to provide personal information such as your name, email address, phone number, postal address, or account credentials.
We do not provide a login or registration feature within the app.
2.2 Magnetic Sensor Data
The app may access your device’s built-in magnetic sensor (magnetometer) to measure magnetic field strength and display readings.
These readings are used to operate the metal detection or magnetic field measurement functionality.
The sensor measures magnetic fields around your device. It does not independently identify specific metals, guarantee the presence of buried objects, or determine the exact location of underground metal.
We do not intentionally transmit magnetic sensor readings to our own servers. If you enable additional features in a future version, this policy will be updated as necessary.
2.3 Advertising Information
Metal Detector Pro uses Google AdMob to display advertisements.
Google AdMob and its associated services may collect or process certain information to serve, measure, personalize, and improve advertisements, subject to your device settings, consent choices, applicable law, and Google's policies.
Depending on the advertising configuration, this information may include:
- Advertising ID or other advertising-related identifiers.
- Device information, such as device model, operating system version, language, and general technical information.
- IP address, which may be used to estimate approximate location.
- Advertising interactions, impressions, clicks, and diagnostic information.
- App interaction and performance information relevant to advertising and fraud prevention.
The information actually processed depends on the AdMob SDK configuration, the ads served, and the user's settings.
We do not directly control all information collected by Google through its advertising services.
For more information, please review Google's Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy

3. How We Use Information
Information processed through the app and its advertising services may be used to:
- Provide magnetic field readings using the device's sensor.
- Display advertisements through Google AdMob.
- Measure advertising performance and prevent invalid advertising activity.
- Diagnose technical issues and improve app stability.
- Comply with applicable legal requirements.
We do not use the app to create personal user accounts, and we do not require personal information to access its main functionality.
4. Firebase and Backend Services
Metal Detector Pro does not use Firebase services.
The app does not use Firebase Analytics, Firebase Authentication, Firebase Cloud Messaging, or Firebase Crashlytics as part of its current implementation.
The app does not operate a separate user account backend for collecting registration details.
However, Google AdMob is an external advertising service and may process information through its own infrastructure.
5. Data Sharing and Third-Party Services
We do not sell users' personal information.
We do not operate a system for sharing user account information with third parties because the app does not require user accounts.
However, Google AdMob may process and share relevant information with Google and its service providers, advertising partners, or other parties as described in Google's policies and as permitted by applicable law.
Such processing may support advertising delivery, measurement, fraud prevention, and other advertising-related purposes.

6. Data Storage and Retention
Metal Detector Pro does not require users to create accounts or submit personal information for its core functionality.
Magnetic sensor readings are used by the app to display measurements. We do not intentionally store or upload these readings to our own remote servers.
Some technical information may be processed or retained by Google AdMob according to Google's data retention practices, service configuration, and applicable legal requirements.
We do not control Google's independent retention practices. For more information, please consult Google's Privacy Policy.
7. Permissions and Device Access
Metal Detector Pro may access the device's magnetic sensor to provide magnetic field measurements.
The app does not require access to your contacts, call history, SMS messages, or personal files to perform its core metal detection functionality.
Any additional permission, if introduced in a future version, will be used only for the relevant feature and disclosed where required.
The permissions actually requested by the installed version of the app may vary depending on its implementation and the advertising SDK.
8. Children's Privacy
Metal Detector Pro is a general-purpose utility application and is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through a registration or account system because the app does not provide such a system.
Advertisements served by Google AdMob may be subject to additional rules depending on the app's target audience, applicable child-protection laws, and advertising configuration.
If you believe that information has been processed inappropriately in connection with a child, please contact us so we can review the concern.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to keep the app's functionality simple and minimize the information we directly collect.
No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Although we do not operate a user account database for this app, third-party services such as Google AdMob operate under their own security practices.
Users should review Google's privacy documentation to understand how their information is handled by its services.
10. Your Privacy Choices
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding personal information processed by third-party advertising services.
You can review or manage relevant privacy and advertising settings through your Android device and Google account, where available.
You may also be able to reset or delete your device's advertising identifier, limit certain forms of ad personalization, or manage consent choices presented by the app or advertising service.
These settings may affect personalized advertising but may not eliminate all advertisements.

11. Internet Connectivity
An internet connection may be required to load and display advertisements through Google AdMob.
Core magnetic sensor readings may work without an internet connection on compatible devices, although advertising availability and any online-dependent functionality may vary.
We do not guarantee that advertisements will always be available.
12. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the app's features, advertising configuration, legal requirements, or data practices change.
Any revised policy will be published at the location where this policy is hosted, along with an updated effective date when appropriate.
We encourage users to review this page periodically.
Continued use of the app after an updated policy becomes effective will be subject to applicable law and any consent requirements.
