Privacy Policy

Welcome to WhaleShort's Privacy Policy. This policy applies to all versions of the WhaleShort App (hereinafter referred to as "WhaleShort") and forms part of our Terms of Service.

At WhaleShort, we prioritize the privacy and security of our users. While providing our services, we may collect and process your personal information. Safeguarding your data is our responsibility, and this policy outlines how we collect, use, and manage the information you provide or disclose to us.

Before using our services, please read this policy carefully to make an informed decision. If you disagree with any part of this policy, we advise you not to use our services or share your personal data with us. Note that restricting certain types of data may limit your access to specific features or diminish your overall experience. By accepting this policy, you consent to our processing of your personal information as described herein.

Information We May Collect

WhaleShort collects the following categories of information to operate, customize, and enhance our services:

Device Information: We gather data about your device and network connection to optimize your app experience.

Log Information: When you interact with our services, we automatically record details such as access dates/times, viewed pages/screens and in-app actions. This helps us provide you with a better experience.

Personal Information: If you register directly, we securely store details like your birthdate, gender, and password (we strongly advise against sharing these with others). For third-party logins (e.g., Facebook, Google), we receive necessary data (e.g., name, email) to enable our services. You can revoke this access via your third-party account settings.

How We Use Your Information

• Create and manage your account;
• Connect you with other users and enable social sharing;
• Develop, personalize, and improve our apps, games, and services;
• Tailor recommendations based on your preferences;
• Provide personalized recommendations for mobile applications and games and/or services;
• Conduct surveys or gather feedback;
• Deliver personalized ads (with your consent);
• Send promotional emails (e.g., updates, rewards, partner offers) per your preferences;
• Enhance security by detecting fraud, illegal activities, or breaches;
• Perform analytics to understand user demographics and trends.

How We Protect Your Personal Information

We employ industry-standard security protocols to prevent unauthorized access, loss, or misuse of your data. Certain WhaleShort services use encryption for transmitted data. However, no system is 100% secure—we cannot guarantee absolute protection against all cyber threats.

Data Deletion

• Use the "Delete Account" function in the app;
• All associated data (including free/paid content) will be erased;
• Deleted accounts cannot be restored.
