Electronics Bench Toolkit

Electronics Bench Toolkit respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Electronics Bench Toolkit Android application.

By using the app, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

Electronics Bench Toolkit is primarily an offline electronics calculator and utility application.

We do not directly require or collect information such as:

  • Your name 
  • Email address 
  • Phone number 
  • Home address 
  • Contacts 
  • Photos or files 
  • Account credentials 
  • Payment information 

The app does not require you to create an account or sign in.

Calculator values and results entered into Electronics Bench Toolkit are processed locally on your device. We do not operate a server that receives or stores your calculator inputs or results.

2. Advertising

Electronics Bench Toolkit displays advertisements using Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK.

Google's advertising services may automatically collect or process certain information for purposes such as displaying ads, measuring ad performance, analytics, security, and fraud prevention.

This information may include:

  • Your device's IP address, which may be used to estimate general location 
  • Device and advertising identifiers 
  • App interactions, such as app launches, taps, and ad interactions 
  • Diagnostic and performance information 
  • Information related to ads displayed or interacted with 

The exact information collected and how it is used is controlled by Google and may depend on your device, region, privacy settings, consent choices, and advertising configuration.

Google states that data collected by the Google Mobile Ads SDK is encrypted in transit. 

3. Advertising Consent and Privacy Choices

Electronics Bench Toolkit uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to manage advertising consent where required.

Depending on your location and applicable privacy laws, you may be shown a consent message allowing you to make choices regarding advertising and the use of personal data.

For users in regions such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, and Switzerland, consent may be requested before certain advertising-related data is used. 

When required, the app may also provide a Privacy Choices option in Settings that allows you to review or change applicable advertising privacy choices.

The availability of this option depends on Google's consent requirements for your region.

4. Third-Party Services

Electronics Bench Toolkit uses third-party services that may process information according to their own privacy policies.

The primary third-party services currently used are:

  • Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK — advertising, ad measurement, analytics related to advertising, and fraud prevention 
  • Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) — advertising consent and privacy-choice management 

We recommend reviewing Google's privacy practices for additional information about how Google handles data.

5. Advertising Identifier

Google Mobile Ads may use your device's Android advertising identifier when available.

Android allows users to manage, reset, or delete their advertising identifier through device privacy or advertising settings.

The availability and behavior of the advertising identifier may vary by Android version and device manufacturer.

6. Permissions

Electronics Bench Toolkit does not request sensitive user permissions for its calculator functionality.

Internet/network access may be used by third-party advertising and consent services to:

  • Request and display advertisements 
  • Obtain consent information 
  • Communicate privacy choices 
  • Measure advertising performance 
  • Prevent fraud and abuse 

The core electronics calculation features do not require an internet connection to perform calculations.

7. How We Use Information

We do not directly maintain personal user profiles or a database of user information.

Information processed by third-party advertising services may be used for purposes including:

  • Serving advertisements 
  • Measuring advertisement performance 
  • Advertising analytics 
  • Preventing invalid traffic, fraud, or abuse 
  • Improving advertising services 
  • Complying with applicable privacy and consent requirements 

8. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information.

However, third-party services integrated into the app, particularly Google advertising services, may collect and share certain information as described in their own policies and documentation.

Google states that its Mobile Ads SDK automatically handles certain information for advertising, analytics, and fraud-prevention purposes. 

9. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to minimize unnecessary collection of user information.

The app's calculator functionality is designed to operate locally on your device.

Information transmitted by third-party services is subject to the security practices of those providers. Google states that information collected by its Mobile Ads SDK is encrypted in transit using TLS. 

No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Children's Privacy

Electronics Bench Toolkit is a general-purpose electronics utility and educational tool and is not designed specifically for young children.

We do not knowingly collect names, contact information, accounts, or other directly identifying personal information from children.

Third-party advertising services may apply additional restrictions depending on applicable law, user age, app configuration, and Google's advertising policies.

11. Your Privacy Choices

Depending on your region and device, you may be able to:

  • Manage advertising privacy choices through the app when the Privacy Choices option is available 
  • Manage your Android advertising identifier 
  • Adjust advertising/privacy preferences through your device settings 
  • Withdraw or modify consent where supported by Google's consent system 

Some choices may affect whether advertisements are personalized.

12. External Links and Advertisements

Advertisements displayed inside Electronics Bench Toolkit may contain links to third-party websites, applications, products, or services.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, security, or behavior of third-party destinations.

You should review the privacy policy of any external service you choose to visit.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, including when:

  • New features are added 
  • Advertising services change 
  • Third-party SDKs change 
  • Legal or Google Play requirements change 

Any updated version will be published on this page with a revised Last updated date.
