Privacy Policy

Last updated:

UAE Gold Price: Dubai ("the App", "we", "us") is built to show gold market information while keeping the data we collect to a minimum. The App does not ask you to create an account or sign in. This page explains, in plain language, what data the App uses, how advertising works, and the choices you have.

In short: No sign-in and no name or email required. Your settings stay on your device. The free version shows ads through Google AdMob, which may use a device identifier to serve and measure them — you control this with Apple's tracking permission, and you can remove all ads with the optional Premium subscription.

No account, no sign-in

The App does not require you to create an account, sign in, or provide your name, email address, phone number, or any other personal identifier to use it.

Information stored on your device only

Your preferences — default currency, language, appearance (light/dark), whether you've seen the welcome intro, your advertising-consent choice, and whether you subscribe to the ad-free upgrade — are stored locally on your device using standard iOS storage (UserDefaults). These settings never leave your device and are not transmitted to us. Deleting the App removes this local data.

Data requested from third-party services

To show live information, the App makes requests to third-party services. These requests do not include your name, account, or any personal identifier — only the data needed to fetch the requested content (such as a gold karat and currency, or a fixed map region):

  • Live gold price data — current and historical gold rates.
  • Khaleej Times — regional gold rates, UAE currency (draft) exchange rates, fuel prices, and prayer times.
  • TradingView — gold market news headlines.
  • Apple Maps (MapKit) — gold dealer and jewellery shop search results, using a fixed Dubai/UAE map region. The App does not access or use your device's precise location.

These providers process requests according to their own privacy practices, which are outside our control. Standard technical information such as your IP address is necessarily visible to any service your device connects to.

Advertising

The free version of the App displays ads through Google AdMob (the Google Mobile Ads SDK). To serve and measure ads, Google and its ad partners may collect and process technical information from your device, which can include:

  • a device advertising identifier (IDFA) — only if you allow tracking (see below);
  • IP address and general (non-precise) location derived from it;
  • device and app information, and how you interact with ads.

This information is used to deliver ads, limit repetition, measure ad performance, and — where permitted — show more relevant ads. Google's handling of this data is described in the Google Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Your tracking & consent choices

  • App Tracking Transparency (ATT): On first launch the App asks for permission to track you across other companies' apps and websites. If you decline, you'll still see ads, but they will be non-personalized (contextual). You can change this anytime in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
  • Consent (UMP): Where required by law (for example, users covered by the EU/EEA/UK GDPR or applicable US state privacy laws), the App presents a Google-provided consent form so you can choose your advertising preferences.
  • SKAdNetwork: The App supports Apple's SKAdNetwork, a privacy-preserving system that helps measure ad performance without identifying you.
  • Go ad-free: Subscribing to Premium removes all ads and the associated ad data collection for advertising purposes.

Subscriptions & purchases

The App offers an optional auto-renewable subscription ("Premium — Ad-Free"). Purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store using Apple's in-app purchase system (StoreKit). Apple handles all payment details — we never receive or store your payment card information. Whether you have an active subscription is verified through your Apple Account, and a simple on/off flag is stored locally on your device so the App knows to hide ads. See the Terms of Use for subscription and billing details.

Analytics

The App uses Google Analytics for Firebase to understand how the App is used — for example, which screens are viewed, session and launch counts, and general device/app information. To do this, Firebase may collect app-usage data, diagnostics, and identifiers (including, where you have permitted tracking, the advertising identifier). This helps us measure engagement and improve the App. Google processes this data in accordance with the Google Privacy Policy. We do not use it to build a profile that identifies you by name, and the App still requires no account or sign-in.

Advertising data is collected separately by the Google Mobile Ads SDK as described above (free version only).

Children's privacy

The App is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through the App, please contact us so we can address it.

Not financial advice

Gold prices and market information shown in the App are for general informational purposes only and do not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. Always verify current rates with a licensed dealer before making a purchase.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new "last updated" date, and reflected inside the App's Settings screen.
