1. Scope & Data Controller
This Privacy Policy applies to all mobile applications published by Beijing Jingrui Xinyuan Technology Co., Ltd ("Jingrui Xinyuan", "we", "us"), to the Jingrui Console mobile management platform, and to the corporate website at www.jingruixy.com.
For the purpose of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the UK GDPR, the Brazilian Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) and similar laws, the data controller is:
Beijing Jingrui Xinyuan Technology Co., Ltd
Building 6, Courtyard 2, 60 meters west of Wanggezhuang Village, Shilibao Town, Miyun District, Beijing, 100000, People's Republic of China
Email: lixujing@jingruixy.com (business enquiries) | support@jingruixy.com (privacy & data requests)
2. Definitions
- "Apps" means all mobile applications published by Jingrui Xinyuan on Google Play and other app stores, including but not limited to the Outdoor Offline Route Parser, the Collectibles Asset Archive, the Textual Inspiration Engine, the Exercise Load Calculator, the Family Receipt Scanner and the Periodic Habit Tracker.
- "Console" means the Jingrui Console mobile management application, including any companion websites and APIs.
- "Service" means, collectively, the Apps, the Console and the Website.
- "Personal Data" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, as defined in the GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, PIPL and analogous laws.
- "Process" / "Processing" means any operation performed on Personal Data, including collection, storage, use, disclosure or erasure.
- "Ad Networks" means third-party advertising platforms integrated into our Apps for the delivery of in-app advertising (IAA).
- "IAP" means in-app purchases processed via the relevant app store's billing system.
3. Data We Collect (and Don't)
Our guiding principle is "Data Stays Local": wherever technically possible, your content is processed and stored on your device and never transmitted to our servers, which we do not operate for user-generated content. Where transmission is technically necessary, the data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and minimised.
3.1 Data we DO NOT collect
- We do not collect, sell or share your location, contacts, photos, microphone input, calendar or biometric data unless you explicitly opt in for a specific feature.
- We do not require account creation to use our Apps.
- We do not perform cross-app tracking.
- We do not fingerprint devices for advertising purposes.
3.2 Data we may collect
| Category | Examples | Source | Lawful basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Account data (optional) | Email address (if you create an account for cross-device sync or IAP) | You | Contract |
| Purchase data | Receipt of in-app purchase, subscription status, anonymised transaction ID | Google Play Billing | Contract / Legal obligation |
| Support correspondence | Emails you send to support@jingruixy.com, including attachments you choose to include | You | Legitimate interest |
| Aggregated, non-identifying analytics | App version, country (derived from IP), device class, language, anonymous install UUID | Device | Consent (opt-out available) |
| Crash & diagnostics | Stack trace, app state at crash, OS version | Device | Legitimate interest |
| Server logs (Website only) | IP address (truncated), user agent, referrer | Browser | Legitimate interest |
4. Legal Basis for Processing
Under the GDPR and similar laws, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Contract — to deliver the Apps, the Console and any IAP you purchase.
- Legitimate interest — to keep the Service secure, prevent fraud, respond to support requests and improve product quality. Where required, we conduct a balancing test.
- Consent — for non-essential cookies, optional analytics, and any advertising that uses personalisation. You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legal obligation — to comply with tax, accounting, anti-money-laundering and law enforcement requests.
5. How We Use Information
- To deliver, maintain and improve the Service.
- To authenticate IAP receipts and prevent fraud.
- To respond to your support requests.
- To send you essential service communications (security alerts, terms changes) — you cannot opt out of these as they are necessary for the operation of the Service.
- To send you our quarterly newsletter — only if you explicitly opt in.
- To comply with applicable law.
6. Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell Personal Data, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We share information only with the following categories of recipients, and only to the extent strictly necessary:
- App stores (Google LLC, Apple Inc., Huawei, Samsung, Amazon and other stores where our apps are published) — for distribution, IAP processing and store-level security. Their own privacy policies apply.
- Ad Networks — for the delivery of non-personalised advertising (see §7). You may opt out of personalised ads at any time via the in-app "Privacy" menu.
- Payment processors (Google Play Billing, Apple StoreKit, Stripe and regional providers) — for the sole purpose of processing IAP.
- Cloud infrastructure providers (Google Cloud, Cloudflare, Amazon Web Services, region-specific providers) — for hosting, content delivery and email. All transfers are encrypted and protected by data processing agreements.
- Professional advisors (auditors, lawyers, accountants) under confidentiality.
- Government authorities — only when we have a legal obligation or a valid legal order. We publish an annual transparency report on the number of government requests received.
- Corporate transactions — in the event of a merger, acquisition or asset sale, with notice to you.
7. Advertising & Ad Networks
Some of our Apps monetise through In-App Advertising (IAA). To operate advertising responsibly and to comply with Google Play's Families Policy, GDPR, CCPA/CPRA and the ePrivacy Directive, we integrate the following ad networks, mediation platforms and bidding solutions, each of which has been vetted for compliance:
7.1 First-tier ad networks & mediation platforms
- Google AdMob / Google Ads — banner, interstitial, rewarded video and native ads. Supports Google Funding Choices for consent management. Privacy Policy · Publisher guidance
- Meta Audience Network (Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd & Meta Platforms, Inc.) — banner, interstitial, rewarded and native. Privacy Policy
- Unity Ads & Unity LevelPlay (ironSource) — banner, interstitial, rewarded video. Privacy Policy
- AppLovin MAX & AppLovin Exchange — mediation, bidding, banner, interstitial, rewarded, native. Privacy Policy
- Pangle (TikTok For Business / ByteDance Ltd.) — banner, interstitial, rewarded. Privacy Policy
- Vungle (Liftoff Mobile, Inc.) — rewarded and interstitial. Privacy Policy
- Chartboost (now part of InMobi) — banner, interstitial, rewarded. Privacy Policy

- Outbrain Inc. — content recommendation (where applicable, opt-in only). Privacy Policy
7.2 Ad format compliance
Our Apps display the following ad formats, all of which are designed to comply with Google Play's Ad Policy, the Better Ads Standards, and local consumer-protection law:
- Banner ads — small fixed-size ads at the top or bottom of a screen. We use MREC (300×250), leaderboard (728×90) and adaptive banner sizes. We do not place banner ads that obstruct navigation or make accidental clicks likely.
- Interstitial ads — full-screen ads shown at natural transition points (after completing a task, between levels, after a save). We do not show them immediately on app launch, and we never show two in a row.
- Rewarded video ads — full-screen video ads that the user opts in to in exchange for a clear in-app reward (an extra life, a temporary feature unlock, a digital coin). The user is always informed of the reward before the ad starts, and the reward is granted even if the user exits the ad early where the network supports it.
- Native ads — ads that match the look and feel of the surrounding content, always labelled "Ad" or "Sponsored".
- Splash / App-open ads — where used, displayed on cold start, are skippable after 5 seconds, and never appear more than once per session unless explicitly requested by the user.
- Offerwall ads — available only in opt-in contexts; never shown to users who are signed in with a "child" or "under-13" account.
7.3 Children & advertising
For users we know (or have reason to believe) are under 13, we serve only contextual, non-personalised advertising via Google Play Families Policy compliant SDKs. No interest-based or behavioural targeting is performed.
7.4 Consent management
For users in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, we integrate the Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) and/or a TCF v2.2 compliant Consent Management Platform (CMP) to collect explicit, granular consent for:
- Storage and access of information on the device (Purpose 1)
- Personalisation (Purposes 3 & 4)
- Ad selection and delivery (Purposes 1, 2, 3, 4, 7)
- Content selection and delivery (Purposes 1, 2, 3, 7)
- Measurement (Purposes 7, 8, 9)
You may revisit your choices at any time via the in-app "Privacy" menu or via the Google "My Ad Center".
7.5 Ad network opt-outs
Beyond the in-app "Privacy" menu, you may also opt out of personalised advertising at the industry level:
- YourAdChoices (DAA): youradchoices.com/control
- European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA): youronlinechoices.com
- Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): optout.networkadvertising.org
- Google Ads Settings: adssettings.google.com
- Apple's "Limit Ad Tracking" (iOS): Settings → Privacy → Tracking
- Android's "Opt out of Ads Personalisation": Settings → Google → Ads
8. In-App Purchases & Billing
Our Apps support In-App Purchases (IAP) via the official app store billing systems. We do not operate any third-party payment processor for IAP, in compliance with Google Play's billing policy and the Apple App Store's IAP rules.

- Apple StoreKit 2 for any future iOS releases
- Honor / Huawei IAP / Petal Pay where required by the store

Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel subscriptions in your store account settings. We support grace period and account hold behaviour consistent with Google Play's billing policy.
Per the EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA) and Digital Services Act (DSA), users in the EU have the right to use an alternative, external payment method where the store permits it, and the right to a 14-day "cooling-off" withdrawal on digital content purchases, unless the content has been fully consumed with the user's prior express consent.
9. Google Play & App Store Distribution
Our Apps are published on Google Play under the publisher name "Beijing Jingrui Xinyuan Technology Co., Ltd". We are also distributed, where appropriate, on the following app stores:
- Google Play (primary distribution channel) — see Google Play Terms of Service and the Google Play Privacy & Security policy.
- Apple App Store (where applicable) — see the App Store Review Guidelines and the Apple Privacy Policy.
- Huawei AppGallery — Huawei Privacy Policy
- Samsung Galaxy Store — Samsung Privacy Policy
- Amazon Appstore — Amazon Privacy Notice
- Honor App Market — Honor Privacy Policy
- Xiaomi GetApps — Xiaomi Privacy Policy
- OPPO Software Store — OPPO Privacy Policy
- Vivo App Store — Vivo Privacy Policy

Each store acts as an independent data controller for the data it processes. Please review their privacy policies.
10. Children, Age Ratings & Family
We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age of 13 (or older, where required by local law — e.g. under 14 in the UK, under 16 in some EU member states, under 14 in South Korea, under 18 in Mainland China for certain processing). We do not direct our Apps at children.
10.1 Age ratings
Our Apps are classified on Google Play under the ESRB and PEGI rating systems and the IARC generic international rating. The default rating we apply is "Everyone" / "PEGI 3" or above. For Apps that include simulated gambling, violence, mild language, or user-generated content, we apply the appropriate higher rating.
10.2 Google Play Families Policy
For Apps we have designated as "Designed for Families", we comply with the Google Play Families Policy in full, including:
- No behavioural or interest-based advertising.
- No personal data collected from children without verifiable parental consent.

- All ad SDKs and analytics SDKs configured to be inactive when a child is signed in.
- Persistent, visible identity of ads (e.g. "Ad: Presented by X").
- Click-to-call, click-to-install and other redirect flows are not permitted in child-directed contexts.
10.3 Family Library
Our IAP subscriptions support the Google Play Family Library feature. Family managers may share eligible subscriptions with up to 5 other family members.
10.4 Verifiable parental consent
If we ever collect personal data from a child under 13, we obtain verifiable parental consent via Google Play's Family Link or equivalent mechanism. Parents may review, delete and request cessation of processing of their child's data at any time by emailing support@jingruixy.com.
11. International Data Transfers
Our company is headquartered in Mainland China. Where Personal Data is transferred outside its country of origin, we rely on the following legal mechanisms:
- For transfers out of the EEA / UK: the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) of 4 June 2021, the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, or transfers to countries with adequacy decisions.
- For transfers into Mainland China: the CAC's Standard Contract for Cross-Border Transfer of Personal Information (2023), supplemented by security assessment where required for "important data" or large-scale transfers.

The Website uses the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:

27. Do Not Sell or Share
We do not sell Personal Data, and we do not share Personal Data for cross-context behavioural advertising. As such, the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link in our footer is a courtesy — and clicking it will set a "Global Privacy Control" (GPC) signal on your browser that we honour. If you have visited a page with advertising, your GPC signal is propagated to the integrated Ad Networks (see §7).
28. Automated Decision-Making & Profiling
We do not perform automated decision-making with legal or similarly significant effects on you (Art. 22 GDPR). Personalised advertising does not constitute "automated decision-making" in the legal sense, but you can always opt out via the in-app "Privacy" menu or industry-level opt-out tools (§7.5).
29. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date at the top, post a notice on our Website, and — for material changes — notify you via in-app notification or email at least 30 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
