Privacy Policy for Qode: Secret Codes & USSD

Effective date: July 30, 2026

This privacy policy applies to the Qode: Secret Codes & USSD mobile application (the "App") developed by Lipon Studio.

Qode: Secret Codes & USSD is a utility app that provides locally bundled Android device guidance, mobile tips, country calling codes, and manufacturer code references. The app does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to a server operated by Lipon Studio. All core content (secret codes, SIM operator databases, tips, and tricks) is delivered from local JSON files bundled within the app.

Data Collection by Third-Party Services

1. Google Analytics for Firebase

The App uses Google Analytics for Firebase to collect anonymized usage statistics:

• App opens and screen views
• In-app events and interactions
• Crash reports and performance diagnostics

This data is used solely to improve the app experience and fix bugs. Firebase Analytics anonymizes your data and does not associate it with any personally identifiable information.

2. AppLovin MAX (Advertising)

The App integrates AppLovin MAX to display banner and interstitial advertisements. AppLovin may collect:

• Android Advertising ID (AAID)
• IP address
• General location (country / city level)
• Device type and OS version

This data is used for ad targeting, frequency capping, conversion tracking, and fraud prevention. You can opt out of ad personalization at any time via Android Settings → Google → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalization.

3. Google Play Billing

The App offers an optional one-time in-app purchase (remove_ads) to remove advertisements. Payment is processed entirely by Google Play's billing system. Lipon Studio does not receive, store, or process any payment or credit card information.

Data We Collect Directly

None. Qode: Secret Codes & USSD does not require you to create an account, submit personal information, or grant runtime permissions. All app features are functional without any network permissions other than those needed for advertising and analytics as described above.

Device Information

The optional "About Device" screen displays standard Android build properties (model, OS version, RAM, storage). This information is displayed locally only and is not transmitted to Lipon Studio or any third party except as described in the analytics and advertising sections above.

Phone Actions

When you tap a secret code or country prefix, the App opens the system dialer using Android's ACTION_DIAL intent. The app does not place calls automatically and does not request phone, call-log, or SMS permissions.
