Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how Bnm Crypto Alert ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our mobile application ("App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about our data practices.

By using Bnm Crypto Alert, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Information We Collect

Automatically Collected Information

When you use our App, we may automatically collect certain information, including:

  • Device information (device type, manufacturer, operating system version)
  • Google Advertising ID (GAID) for analytics purposes
  • App usage data and interaction patterns
  • IP address (when connecting to cryptocurrency data APIs)

Information You Provide

We may collect information you voluntarily provide, such as:

  • Price alert preferences and settings
  • Watchlist selections
  • App preferences and configurations
  • Feedback and support communications

Data Collection & Analytics

This app collects basic analytics data to help us understand how users interact with our app and to improve our services.

Google Advertising ID: We collect your Google Advertising ID (GAID) for analytics purposes. You can reset or opt out of personalized advertising through your device settings (Settings > Google > Ads).

Analytics data collected includes device information, app usage patterns, and general interaction data. This helps us identify issues and improve the app experience.

Local Notifications

This app uses local notifications to deliver price alerts when your configured conditions are met. These notifications:

  • Are generated entirely on your device
  • Do not require any server communication for delivery
  • Are triggered by background price checks running on your device
  • Include cryptocurrency prices and alert information you configured

You can disable notifications at any time through your device settings or within the app. Disabling notifications will stop price alerts from appearing.

Background Data Processing

This app may perform background tasks to check your price alerts even when the app is not actively open. During these background checks:

  • The app fetches current cryptocurrency prices from external APIs
  • Your stored alerts are compared against current prices locally on your device
  • Notifications are triggered locally when alert conditions are met

Background processing requires network connectivity and may use mobile data. You can control background activity through your device settings.

Local Data Storage

The app stores the following information locally on your device using encrypted local database:

  • User preferences and app settings
  • Price alert configurations (coin IDs, target prices, alert types)
  • Watchlist data and favorite cryptocurrencies
  • Notification history and triggered alerts (including trigger time and price)
  • Cached cryptocurrency market data for offline access

This locally stored data is not transmitted to our servers unless explicitly stated. You can clear this data at any time through the app's Settings menu ("Clear alert history" or "Clear all data"), by clearing the app's cache, or by uninstalling the application.

How We Use Your Information

We may use the information we collect to:

  • Provide and maintain the App's functionality
  • Send you price alerts and notifications you've configured
  • Improve and optimize our services
  • Analyze usage patterns to enhance user experience
  • Detect, prevent, and address technical issues
  • Communicate with you about updates or changes

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:

  • Market Data Providers: We request cryptocurrency pricing data from third-party APIs (such as CoinGecko). These requests include the cryptocurrency identifiers you are tracking but do not include personal information
  • Legal Requirements: When required by law or to protect our rights

Third-Party Services

Our App uses third-party services for cryptocurrency market data:

  • CoinGecko API - Provides cryptocurrency price and market data. Privacy Policy

When fetching price data, your device's IP address may be visible to these services. No personal information is transmitted with these requests.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction:

  • Local data is stored in encrypted databases on your device
  • Network communications use HTTPS encryption
  • We follow industry best practices for data protection

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your information only for as long as necessary to provide our services and fulfill the purposes described in this policy:

  • Local Data: Stored on your device until you delete it or uninstall the app
  • Analytics Data: Basic analytics data may be retained for up to 26 months

Since most data is stored locally on your device, you have full control over it. You can delete all app data by clearing the app cache or uninstalling the application.
