Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 30, 2026
1. Who We Are
Unfiltered Cards is developed and maintained by Stanislav Sobolev, operating as Things Are Alive Lab. If you have any questions about this policy, you can reach us at things.are.alive.lab@gmail.com.
2. Data We Collect
The app itself does not collect or store personal information. However, third-party SDKs integrated into the app may collect the following types of data:
- Advertising Identifier (IDFA / GAID) — a resettable device-level identifier used by Facebook SDK for measuring ad performance and install attribution.
- App install and purchase events — sent to Facebook for ad campaign measurement (e.g., whether you installed the app after seeing a Facebook ad).
- Purchase receipt data — handled by RevenueCat to verify and restore your in-app purchases.
- Pseudonymous app user ID and device info — collected by RevenueCat (device type, OS version) for purchase management purposes.
- App usage events (Product Interaction) — collected by Firebase Analytics, such as which screens and packs are opened, to understand how the app is used.
- Anonymous user identifier and device identifier (IDFV) — generated by Firebase Analytics to group your app usage into a session without identifying you personally.
We do not collect your name, email address, location, or any other personally identifiable information. The app works without an account.
3. Facebook SDK & Ad Attribution
The app includes the Facebook SDK (react-native-fbsdk-next) to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. This SDK may:
-
Report an app install event (
fb_mobile_install) to Facebook when you first open the app. -
Report a purchase event (
fb_mobile_purchase) when you complete an in-app purchase. - Use your Advertising Identifier (IDFA on iOS, Google Advertising ID on Android) to link these events to ad campaigns.
This data is used solely for ad attribution — to understand whether our ads lead to installs or purchases. We do not use it to build personal profiles or target you with ads. Facebook's data practices are governed by the Meta Privacy Policy.
4. Firebase Analytics
The app uses Firebase Analytics (Google) to understand how people use the app — for example, which screens are viewed and which card packs are opened.
Firebase Analytics assigns your device an anonymous app-instance identifier and, on iOS, relies on the Identifier for Vendor (IDFV) rather than the advertising identifier. This identifier is not linked to your name, email, or any other personal information, and we do not use it to track you across other companies' apps or websites.
Data collected through Firebase Analytics is used exclusively to improve app stability, features, and content, and is not combined with third-party data for advertising purposes. Google's data practices are governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
5. Advertising Identifier (IDFA / GAID)
On iOS, the app requests permission to access your Advertising Identifier (IDFA) via Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework. A system prompt will appear before any tracking occurs. You can choose to allow or deny tracking.
If you deny tracking, the Facebook SDK will not use your IDFA and will operate in a limited, privacy-preserving mode. Core app functionality is not affected by your choice.
You can change your tracking preference at any time: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
On Android, you can reset or opt out of interest-based ads via Settings → Google → Ads (exact path may vary by device).
6. In-App Purchases & RevenueCat
Unfiltered Cards offers optional card packs as one-time in-app purchases (non-consumable). To manage purchase verification and restore purchases across devices, the app uses RevenueCat — a third-party purchase management service.
RevenueCat may collect and process the following data on our behalf:
- A pseudonymous app user ID (randomly generated, not linked to your identity).
- Purchase receipt data provided by Apple App Store or Google Play.
- Device type and OS version (for purchase verification purposes).
RevenueCat does not receive your name, email, or any other personally identifiable information from us. Their data practices are governed by the RevenueCat Privacy Policy.
All actual payment processing is handled by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We never see or store your payment card details.
7. No User Accounts
Unfiltered Cards does not have a registration system. You do not need to create an account to use the app. Your purchase history is tied to your Apple ID or Google Account — managed entirely by Apple or Google, not by us.
8. Data Stored on Your Device
The app may store certain data locally on your device (such as which packs you have unlocked) to ensure the app works correctly without an internet connection. This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to us.
9. Third-Party Data Sharing
We share limited data with the following third parties solely for the purposes described in this policy:
- Meta (Facebook) — app install and purchase events for ad attribution, using your Advertising Identifier.
- Google (Firebase Analytics) — anonymous usage and device identifiers for app analytics.
- RevenueCat — pseudonymous purchase data for verification and restore functionality.
- Apple / Google — payment processing through their respective platforms.
We do not sell your data to third parties. We do not share your data with advertisers for targeting purposes beyond the attribution measurement described above.
10. Children's Privacy
Unfiltered Cards is rated 17+ and is intended for adults only. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 17. If you believe a minor has used this App, please contact us at things.are.alive.lab@gmail.com.
11. GDPR — Your Rights (EU & Ukraine Users)
We do not directly hold personal data about you. For data processed by our third-party partners (Facebook, Google Firebase, RevenueCat), you may exercise your rights (access, deletion, portability) by contacting those services directly through their respective privacy policy pages, or by contacting us and we will assist where possible.
If you are a resident of Ukraine, the EU, or the EEA and believe your data protection rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
12. Data Retention
We do not retain personal data on our own servers. Data retained by RevenueCat, Meta, and Google Firebase is governed by their respective retention policies. You can request deletion by contacting those services directly.
13. Security
We do not store personal data ourselves. All communications between the app and third-party services (Facebook, Google Firebase, RevenueCat) are encrypted in transit. Each third-party service maintains its own security standards.
14. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date at the top. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
