However, no system or method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Children’s Privacy

The App is not specifically directed to children under the age of 13 (or under the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate parental consent where required by law.

If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information in violation of applicable law, please contact us, and we will take reasonable steps to delete such information as soon as practicable.

9. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your information, which can include:

Because GoldiMine primarily uses anonymous or pseudonymous identifiers rather than direct personal identities for basic features, exercising these rights may require you to provide device- or app-specific information (for example, an installation ID or advertising ID) so we can locate relevant data.

To exercise any of these rights or to make a privacy-related request, please contact us at:

info@goldimine.com

We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable laws.

10. International Data Transfers

Our servers and those of our service providers (such as Firebase and Google) may be located in different countries. As a result, your information may be processed in countries that may have data protection laws different from those in your country.

Where required by law, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms) are in place to protect your information in connection with such transfers.

11. Third-Party Links and Services

The App may contain links to websites, services, or content operated by third parties. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or policies of such third-party websites or services. Your use of those services is subject to their own privacy policies and terms.

12. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Where required by law, we will also provide additional notice (for example, in-app notification or other reasonable means).

Your continued use of the App after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the changes, you should stop using the App.
