Privacy Policy

Learn Animals Pro · Last updated: 22/07/2026

This policy applies to you and Mohibur Rahman, Humble Code, the Developer of Learn Animals Pro, irrespective of your country of residence or location. This Policy describes our privacy practices in plain language, keeping legal and technical jargon to a minimum, so you understand what information is involved when you use the app, why, and the choices you have.

Where this privacy policy applies

This privacy policy applies to the Learn Animals Pro app. For simplicity, we refer to this as our “service” in this Privacy Policy. When the word “we” is used, it describes the controller of the App and includes the relevant service providers that help us make the service available to you.

We at all times adhere to the strict provisions of the UK’s Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) and the UK and European General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR").

Who controls the processing of my personal data? Who is accountable for it?

Data processing in connection with this app is carried out by:

Mohibur Rahman, Humble Code, the Developer of Learn Animals Pro (hereinafter "Humble Code", "we" or “us”). You can contact us at any time regarding this and other questions on the subject of data protection via email on info@humble-code.com.

Information we collect

We have designed the app so that we ourselves collect as little as possible:

  • Your learning progress, favourites, badges and settings are stored only on your device. They are never uploaded, and we cannot see them. Deleting the app deletes them.
  • The app is free and shows advertising provided by Google AdMob. Google may collect certain information to deliver and measure those ads — this is described in detail below.
  • If you contact us, the information you provide is used solely to answer your message and is not used for advertising.
  • If you unlock the optional one-time Premium purchase, the purchase is processed entirely by Apple. We never see your name, payment details or Apple ID.

Advertising and your choices

Learn Animals Pro is funded by advertising served through Google AdMob, and by the optional Premium purchase. You are always in control of how advertising works for you:

  • Personalised ads only with your permission. When you first use the app, Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt asks whether the app may track you across apps and websites. Ads are only personalised if you tap "Allow". If you decline, you will still see ads, but they will be non-personalised (based on general context rather than you).
  • Consent in the UK and Europe. If you are in the UK or the European Economic Area, a consent message is shown before any advertising begins, in line with GDPR and Google's EU User Consent Policy. You can change your choice at any time via "Ad Privacy Options" in the app's Settings.
  • Change your mind any time. You can withdraw tracking permission in your device Settings (Privacy & Security > Tracking), and adjust ad personalisation in your Google settings.
  • Remove ads entirely. The one-time Premium purchase permanently removes all advertising from the app — when Premium is active, the advertising technology described below does not run at all.

All advertising in the app is filtered by Google to a family-friendly content rating: nothing above "PG", and no adult, gambling or similar content.

Google AdMob

The app uses the Google AdMob service to display ads. In accordance with Google’s own guidance, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect certain information, including:

  • IP address, which may be used to estimate the general location of a device.
  • Non-user related crash logs, which may be used to diagnose problems and improve the SDK.
  • User-associated performance data such as app launch time, hang rate, or energy usage.
  • A Device ID such as the device's advertising identifier (IDFA) — only where you have permitted tracking — or other app-bounded device identifiers.
  • Advertising data, such as advertisements you have seen.
  • Other product interactions, like taps and video views, which may be used to improve advertising performance.

More detailed information about what data Google collects and how it is processed can be found at: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads.

In-app purchases

The optional "Premium — Unlock Everything" purchase is a one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase processed by Apple. Payment is handled entirely within Apple's App Store systems under Apple's privacy policy; we do not receive or store any payment information. Your entitlement is tied to your Apple ID, so you can restore it on any of your devices using "Restore Purchases" in Settings. If you originally bought this app when it was a paid download, the app checks your original App Store receipt (a check performed on your device with Apple) and unlocks Premium automatically — no personal data reaches us in that process.

Children

Learn Animals Pro is a general-audience app enjoyed by families. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children ourselves — all learning progress stays on the device. Advertising is restricted to family-friendly content ratings, and personalised advertising only ever operates after an explicit opt-in through the system prompts described above. Parents who prefer an entirely ad-free experience can use the one-time Premium purchase, which disables all advertising technology in the app.

Notifications

The app can show one optional daily notification with an animal fact. This notification is generated entirely on your device — no information leaves it — and you can decline or disable notifications at any time in your device Settings.

Downloading the app

We have no influence on and are not responsible for the collection of data required to download the app from the App Store, e.g., username, email address and customer number of your account and time of download. That collection is governed by Apple's privacy policy, which you can access here: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/.

How we use information

  • To provide our service to you and keep it working reliably,
  • To fund the free version of the service through advertising, as described above,
  • To respond to you if you contact us,
  • To ensure legal compliance and enforce or exercise our rights.

Legal bases for processing (Article 6 GDPR)

  • Consent — personalised advertising operates only on the basis of your consent, given through the App Tracking Transparency prompt and (in the UK/EEA) the consent message. You can revoke consent at any time as described above; the legality of processing carried out before revocation remains unaffected.
  • Contract — where processing is necessary to deliver something you have asked for, such as the Premium purchase.
  • Legitimate interests — for the basic operation, security and improvement of the app, including non-personalised advertising.

How we share information

We do not sell information that directly identifies you. Advertising data is processed by Google and its certified advertising partners as described in their policies. We may disclose information if reasonably necessary to comply with a legal process, to assist in the prevention or detection of crime, or to protect the safety of any person.

Data transfer to the USA and other third countries

Our advertising provider, Google, is based in the USA, so data it collects may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the UK and EEA. We would like to point out that a level of data protection identical to that in the UK and EU cannot be guaranteed in these countries. We have no influence on these processing activities.

How long we retain information

We ourselves retain nothing beyond any correspondence you send us, which we keep only as long as needed to help you. Data collected by Google is retained in accordance with Google's own retention policies.

Your rights

Please contact us at any time to enforce your rights as a data subject under Art. 15 - 22 GDPR. This includes:

  • The right to information,
  • The right to erasure,
  • The right to rectification,
  • The right to data portability,
  • The right to restriction of data processing,
  • The right to object to data processing.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) is the relevant authority for us (https://ico.org.uk/). We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO, so please contact us in the first instance.

Uninstall

You can stop all data collection by the app by uninstalling it using the standard uninstall process for your device.

Automated decision-making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects concerning you.

Changes and updates to the privacy policy

We will amend this privacy policy whenever changes to the app's data processing make it necessary — for instance, changes to how advertising or purchases work. Please check it from time to time.

Queries and Complaints

Any comments or queries on this policy should be directed to us using the contact details provided. If you believe that we have acted otherwise than in accordance with this privacy policy, please notify us.
