Privacy Policy of the “Canada Tax Calculator | GST HST” App

Last updated: January 28, 2025

This Privacy Policy (hereinafter referred to as “the Policy”) applies to the mobile application “Canada Tax Calculator | GST HST” (hereinafter referred to as “the App”), published by Intuitions (hereinafter referred to as “the Developer,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). Its purpose is to inform you, as a user (hereinafter referred to as “you”), about how your data is collected, used, shared, and protected when using our App.

By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, please stop using the App.

1. Data Collected

1.1 Types of Data Collected

• Usage Data: To improve the App, we use Firebase Analytics to collect information about your usage, such as viewed features, frequency of use, performance, and any technical issues (e.g., bugs or crashes).
• Advertising Identifiers: We use Google AdMob to display ads within the App. For this purpose, your device’s advertising ID (Advertising ID on Android or IDFA on iOS) may be collected to personalize ads.

1.2 Data Sources

• Direct Interaction with the App: Data about how you navigate or interact with features is automatically collected via the Firebase Analytics SDK.
• Third-Party Services: Advertising-related information from your device is collected via Google AdMob for ad distribution.

2. Use of Data

2.1 Main Purposes

• App Improvement: Usage data (statistics and error reports) helps us improve the App’s stability, performance, and usability.
• Ad Personalization: Your device’s advertising identifiers are used by Google AdMob to provide more relevant ads.

2.2 Legal Basis for Processing

Your data is collected and processed based on your implicit consent, expressed by continuing to use the App. You may limit the collection of analytical and advertising data at any time by disabling these features in your device settings or by uninstalling the App if you do not consent.

3. Data Sharing

3.1 Sharing with Third Parties

• Google AdMob: For displaying personalized or non-personalized ads based on your region and device’s advertising ID.
• Firebase (Google): For usage analytics (Firebase Analytics) and reporting technical events (e.g., crashes).
• Legal Obligations: We may disclose certain data if required by law (e.g., request from an authority).

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. Access to your information is limited to service providers necessary for the App’s functionality and improvement.

4. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, destruction, or alteration. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. We strive to protect your information but cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention and Deletion

Collected data (usage data, advertising identifiers) is retained as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy or to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.

Currently, there is no customized mechanism allowing users to directly request the deletion of their anonymous data (statistics or identifiers). If you no longer wish to be subject to this processing, you can delete the App from your device or limit targeted advertising through your operating system settings.

6. User Consent and Rights

By using the App, you consent to the collection and use of your data as described in this Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, please uninstall the App.

Given the largely anonymous nature of data collection (via advertising or analytics identifiers), it is difficult to link a specific request to an individual user. However, you still have the right to limit the use of advertising identifiers by adjusting your device settings (resetting the ID, disabling targeted advertising, etc.).

7. Changes to the Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The last update date is indicated at the top of the page. We encourage you to review this page regularly for any updates.
