1. Introduction

Welcome to Flight Countdown ("App"), a mobile application developed and operated by Japality Limited ("Company," "we," "our," or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our App.

Refund requests must be submitted directly to Apple or Google, as they process all payments. Japality Limited does not have the ability to process refunds directly. For iOS, visit reportaproblem.apple.com. For Android, contact Google Play support.

4. Advertising

The free version of the App displays advertisements provided by Google AdMob. When you use the free version:

• Google AdMob may collect device identifiers (such as Advertising ID)
