"When you use the free version of the App, we may show you advertisements within the App based on your interests. This involves using identifiers assigned by Apple on iOS and Google on Android, respectively, to entice advertisers to bid to occupy ad space on the PhotoCircle App when they want to offer a product or service that might suit a user."

PhotoCircle uses Apple IDFA and Google Advertising ID, which are device-level identifiers that enable cross-app tracking and interest-based profiling by advertising networks.

"We retain information from or about you only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.

Retention periods are described vaguely as 'as long as necessary' with no specific timelines, and banned users' email hashes are retained indefinitely with no stated deletion date.
