Privacy Policy

Better Korean Dict  ·  Last updated: May 20, 2026

Better Korean Dict ("the app") is operated by Matthew Bae. This policy explains what data is collected when you use the app, who it is shared with, and what choices you have.

What data we collect

We collect nothing ourselves.

The app is a fully offline dictionary. It has no servers, no user accounts, no analytics, and no telemetry. All dictionary content ships inside the app; your searches stay on your device.

Third-party data collection

Advertising (free version)

The free version shows a single banner ad at the bottom of the search screen, powered by Google AdMob. Google may collect:

• Advertising identifiers (IDFA on iOS, GAID on Android)
• Device information (OS version, screen size, locale)
• General location (country / region, derived from IP address)
• Ad interaction data (impressions, taps)

This data is used by Google to serve relevant ads and is governed by Google's Privacy Policy and Google's ads data usage policy.

If you purchase "Remove ads", no ad SDK code runs and no data is collected by Google AdMob.

In-app purchases

Purchases are processed entirely by Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store). We never see your payment details or billing information. Apple's and Google's own privacy policies govern those transactions.

Your choices

Platform	How to limit ad tracking
iOS	Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → disable for Better Korean Dict
Android	Settings → Google → Ads → Delete advertising ID

You can also permanently remove all advertising by purchasing Remove ads ($4.99, one-time, no subscription) inside the app.

Children

The app is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes

If this policy changes materially, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Because the app is offline-first, there is no mechanism to push a notification; check this page when you update the app.
