Privacy Policy for Turbo Tales
Effective date: 2025-08-25
Introduction
Turbo Tales (“we”, “our”, “us”) is an app developed and distributed by Hologram Tomasz Koszyk, based in Warsaw, Poland. The app delivers daily stories about cars and related content. Turbo Tales is a free app supported by advertising. We use the Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) to show ads. These ads may be personalized if you consent to tracking, or non-personalized if you do not consent. You can also purchase a Pro subscription that removes ads entirely.This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have.
Information We Collect
When you use Turbo Tales, we may collect advertising identifiers such as the Apple IDFA or Google Advertising ID, device identifiers generated by the app, information about how you interact with the app, error and performance diagnostics, and approximate location signals used to provide region-appropriate ads. If you make a purchase, such as the remove-ads subscription, we also process basic purchase information.
We do not collect your name, email address, contact details, or precise location.
How We Use Information
We use this information to operate and improve the app, show and measure ads through Google AdMob, and provide optional personalized advertising if you consent. If you decline consent or choose not to allow tracking, we will only show non-personalized ads. We also use the information to monitor app performance, fix errors, and deliver features you request such as in-app purchases.
Legal Bases for Processing (EEA/UK)
If you are located in the EEA or the UK, we process data on the basis of consent (for personalized advertising and tracking), legitimate interests (to run and secure the app and show non-personalized ads), and contract (to provide features such as subscriptions).
Sharing of Information
We share limited data with Google, which operates AdMob and the User Messaging Platform SDK, in order to deliver and measure ads. You can read more about Google’s data practices here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads. We may also share information with service providers who help us with crash reporting, analytics, or hosting, and they are bound by strict contractual obligations. We do not sell your personal data.
Advertising, Consent, and Tracking
On first launch, the app may present a consent message using Google’s User Messaging Platform SDK, as well as Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt on iOS. If you consent, ads may be personalized using identifiers and signals. If you do not consent, only non-personalized ads are shown. You may change your choices at any time in the app under Settings → Manage Privacy.
If you wish to enjoy the app without ads, you can purchase a remove-ads subscription.
Your Choices
You can manage privacy choices directly in the app, reset or limit your advertising identifiers in your device settings, and withdraw consent at any time. On iOS, go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. On Android, go to Settings → Privacy → Ads.
Retention and Security
We keep data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above. Retention periods may vary depending on the system, such as Google’s own ad log retention policies. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information.
Children
Turbo Tales is designed for general audiences and is not directed to children under the age of 13. If we learn that a child has provided personal information, we will delete it.
International Transfers
Your information may be processed in countries outside your own. Where legally required, we rely on safeguards such as standard contractual clauses to ensure adequate protection.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, delete, or restrict the use of your information. You may also withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, please contact us at the email below.
U.S. Disclosures
If you are a California resident, you have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA). We do not sell personal information, but we may “share” limited data with Google AdMob for advertising. You may opt out of personalized advertising at any time in the app settings.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will update the “Effective date” and, where required, notify you through the app.
