COSMIX PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: October 3, 2026 (revision 2026-10-03.2)
1. INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Cosmix ("we", "our", or "us"). Cosmix is operated by Lyra Ventures LLC doing business as Cosmix. We provide a cross-platform mobile application that delivers personalized daily life insights through interactive inquiries (the "App"), and a website at cosmixapp.com that offers interactive quizzes and personalized digital products such as the Soulmate Sketch and the Blueprint reading (the "Website").
We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information about you when you use our mobile application, our Website, and related services (collectively, the "Services").
By downloading, installing, or using our Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Services.
2. DATA WE COLLECT
2.1 User Profile Information
When you create an account and complete the onboarding process, we collect:
- First name
- Birth date
- Birth time
- Birth location (including coordinates and city name)
- Phone number (for authentication purposes)
- Device information including device ID, IP address, and operating system
2.2 Friend Information
When you add friends to your account, we collect:
- Friend's name
- Friend's birth date, birth time, and birth location
Important: By providing information about your friends, you represent that you have obtained their consent to share their personal information with us for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We recommend informing your friends before adding their information to the App.
2.3 Contacts Data
Automatic Phone Hash for Discoverability: When you create an account, we automatically generate a one-way cryptographic hash (HMAC-SHA256) of your phone number. This hash cannot be reversed to recover your phone number. It is used solely to allow other Cosmix users to discover you when they search their contacts. You can remove your phone hash at any time through the Connections settings in the App. No device contacts are accessed for this process — only your own phone number from your account is used.
Contact Matching (Opt-in): With your explicit opt-in consent, we may access your device contacts to facilitate friend discovery:
- What we collect: The phone numbers in your device contacts. The App sends them to our server over an encrypted (TLS) connection, and our server converts each one into a one-way cryptographic hash (HMAC-SHA256)
- What we do NOT collect: Names, email addresses, or any other details from your contacts
- Purpose: We compare those hashes against the hashed phone numbers of existing Cosmix users to help you find friends on the platform
- Storage: Your contacts' phone numbers and their hashes are used only for that real-time comparison and are not stored
- Control: You can deny or revoke contacts permission at any time through your device settings; the App functions fully without this permission
2.4 Inquiry Data
When you interact with our inquiry features, we collect:
- Inquiry responses and selections
- Inquiry completion status
- Inquiry history
- Timestamps of inquiry interactions
2.5 Chat Data
When you use our chat feature, we collect:
- Messages you send through the chat interface
- Your interactions with the chat system
- Personal context data relevant to your questions
- Timestamps of chat sessions
2.6 Generated Content
Our Services generate and store:
- Personalized life insights based on your personal details
- Inquiry results and interpretations
- Relationship compatibility data (for friendship and family inquiries)
- Visualization graphics and shareable cards
- AI-generated chat responses based on your queries
2.7 Subscription and Payment Information
If you purchase a premium subscription, we collect:
- Subscription type and status
- Transaction records and purchase history
2.8 Usage Information
We automatically collect certain information about how you use our Services:
- App access frequency and duration
- Feature usage patterns
- Interaction with app elements
- Error logs and crash reports
- Performance metrics
2.9 Analytics Data
We use Mixpanel analytics to collect the following, linked to your Cosmix account ID (so this data is not anonymous):
- Usage statistics
- User interaction patterns and flows
- Feature popularity metrics
- Session data and user engagement metrics
- Conversion rates and retention statistics
2.10 Website Quiz and Digital Product Data
When you take a quiz or purchase a digital product (such as the Soulmate Sketch or the Blueprint reading) on our Website, we collect:
- Email address: Provided by you to receive your quiz results and digital product
- Quiz answers: Your responses to quiz questions about your preferences, personality, and relationship patterns
- Birth details: If a quiz asks for them and you choose to provide them. For the Blueprint reading, this includes your birth date, birth time (or an indication that you don't know it), and birth place, which we use to generate your personalized reading
- Generated content: The digital products we create for you, such as your Soulmate Sketch image and written match profile, or your Blueprint reading
- Purchase records: Product purchased, price paid, and transaction status. Payment card details are collected and processed directly by our payment processor (Stripe) — we do not store your full card number or card security code
- Phone number (optional): If you choose to provide it to link your Website purchase to a Cosmix app account
We use this information to generate and deliver your quiz results and digital products, to link your purchase to your Cosmix app account if you create one, and to send you follow-up emails: your results, an invitation to continue in the Cosmix app, and, if you give your email in a quiz and don't buy, up to three reminder emails, which may include a discount offer, whether or not you opened checkout. These emails don't require a separate sign-up. Each one has an unsubscribe link, and you can also unsubscribe by contacting us at info@cosmixapp.com; unsubscribing stops these emails for that quiz submission. If you took more than one quiz, you may need to unsubscribe from the emails for each one.
2.11 Cookies and Tracking Technologies (Website)
Our Website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. Our quiz pages are reached through our advertising, and the advertising-measurement technologies described below are active from the time a page loads. The first page of each quiz includes a notice, with a link to this Privacy Policy, explaining that continuing means you agree to their use. If you do not agree, do not continue with the quiz; you can also block these technologies before or after visiting, as described under "Your choices" below.
- Essential cookies: Required for the Website to function (e.g., remembering your progress through a quiz).
- Advertising and analytics technologies: We use the Meta Pixel and similar technologies to measure the effectiveness of our advertising, attribute Website visits and purchases to advertising campaigns, and build audiences for advertising on Meta platforms. The Meta Pixel may collect your IP address, browser information, pages visited, and actions taken (such as starting a quiz or completing a purchase), and shares this information with Meta according to Meta's Privacy Policy.
- Meta Conversions API (server-side): When you enter your email in a quiz, start checkout, or complete a purchase, our server also sends that event to Meta, together with a hashed copy of your email address, your IP address, your browser's user agent, Meta's cookie identifiers (if present), and, for checkout and purchases, the price. Meta uses this to match the event to the ad that brought you here, measure our advertising, and build audiences.
- Google advertising measurement: We use the Google tag (gtag.js) to measure the effectiveness of our Google Ads campaigns and attribute Website visits and purchases to the ad click that brought you here. The Google tag may collect your IP address, browser information, pages visited, actions taken, and ad-click identifiers (such as a "gclid"). If you complete a purchase, we also send Google the purchase amount, currency, and an order reference, together with a scrambled (hashed) copy of the email address you entered ("enhanced conversions"). The hashing happens in your browser before anything is sent, and the raw address never leaves the page; Google uses the hash only to match the purchase to the ad click for measurement. Google processes this information as our advertising-measurement processor in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy.
Global Privacy Control: If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for that browser. When your browser sends it, the Website does not load the Meta Pixel or the Google tag, and our server does not send your quiz, checkout or purchase events to Meta's Conversions API. We honor the signal for the visit or checkout in which your browser sends it, including a checkout you resume from a link in one of our emails. Our own records of your quiz and purchase, which we use to provide the Services and measure our own funnel, continue as usual. GPC on the Website does not change how the App handles data; see Section 6.7 for the App's advertising choices.
Your choices: You can block or delete cookies and trackers through your browser settings or tracking-protection features (including before visiting the Website), manage how Meta uses your data via Meta's Ad Preferences at https://www.facebook.com/adpreferences, manage how Google uses your data via Google's Ads Settings at https://adssettings.google.com, or use industry opt-out tools such as https://optout.aboutads.info. You can also contact us at info@cosmixapp.com to request deletion of data associated with these technologies.
2.12 Advertising Attribution Data
We collect and use advertising identifiers to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns across different platforms:
iOS - SKAdNetwork Attribution
We use Apple's SKAdNetwork framework in combination with Meta/Facebook's advertising platform:
- Install Attribution: When you install our app from a Meta/Facebook advertisement, Apple's SKAdNetwork automatically sends an anonymous install signal to Meta. This does not include any personal identifiers and is processed entirely through Apple's privacy-preserving framework.
- Purchase Events: When you complete a subscription purchase, we send anonymous purchase event information to Meta to help optimize our advertising campaigns for users who are more likely to subscribe.
Privacy Notes:
- We do NOT use App Tracking Transparency (ATT) or request tracking permission
- We do NOT track you across other apps or websites
- SKAdNetwork attribution is privacy-preserving and does not share personal identifiers
- No individual user data is provided to Meta - only anonymous, aggregated conversion signals
Android - Advertising Identifier
On Android devices, we collect your Google Advertising ID to:
- Measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns
- Attribute app installs and in-app actions to specific advertisements
- Provide personalized advertising experiences through our partners (Facebook/Meta)
- Analyze how users interact with our advertisements
- Optimize ad delivery to users most likely to be interested in our services
Your Control Over Android Advertising ID: You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time by:
- Going to Settings > Privacy > Ads on your Android device
- Selecting "Delete advertising ID" or "Opt out of Ads Personalization"
- Note: Opting out will not prevent you from seeing ads, but they may be less relevant to you

4. DATA SHARING AND DISCLOSURE
4.1 Third-Party Service Providers
We may share your personal information with third-party service providers that help us deliver our Services:
- Supabase: For database storage, user authentication, and edge functions
- Google Places API: For location search during personal information input
- Twilio: For SMS authentication
- Firebase: For push notifications and app messaging (not for analytics)
- Mixpanel: For analytics and user behavior tracking
- Meta/Facebook: For privacy-preserving install attribution via Apple's SKAdNetwork (iOS) and purchase event tracking; for Android devices, we share your Google Advertising ID for ad attribution, campaign optimization, and personalized advertising; on the Website, for advertising measurement and audience building via the Meta Pixel (see Section 2.11)
- Google Ads: On the Website, for advertising measurement and conversion attribution via the Google tag (see Section 2.11). If you complete a purchase, Google receives the purchase amount, currency, an order reference, and a hashed copy of your email address (enhanced conversions), hashed in your browser before it is sent
- AI Services (xAI/Grok, Google Gemini, Anthropic/Claude): For AI chat functionality, generating inquiry questions, content generation, conversation processing, personalized results, and generating written digital product content such as the Blueprint reading. We use more than one provider so that if one is unavailable, another can respond; whichever provider handles a request receives the content needed for it, such as your chat messages and the birth-chart and profile details used to personalize the answer. For Website digital products, these providers receive your quiz answers and information derived from the birth details you provide — never your name, email address, or contact details.
- Image Generation Services (Google Gemini, OpenAI via fal.ai): For generating digital product images such as the Soulmate Sketch. These providers receive a text description derived from your quiz answers — never your name, email address, or contact details.
- Stripe: To process payments for digital products purchased on the Website. Stripe collects your payment card details directly; we receive only transaction status and records.
- Postmark: To send Website emails, such as your quiz results and follow-up emails. Postmark receives your email address and the content of each email.
- Sentry: For error and crash monitoring in the App and on the Website. Error reports can include device and browser details, the screen or page where the error happened, and technical identifiers for your session or account.
- Vercel: To host the Website.
These service providers are contractually required to use your information solely to provide services to us and in accordance with our instructions and this Privacy Policy.
4.2 Friend Data Sharing
When you include friends in inquiries:
- We use both your and your friend's personal details to calculate compatibility metrics
- Friend data is only used for the specific purposes disclosed in this policy
- Friend information is not shared with other users or third parties except as necessary to provide the Services
4.3 Legal Requirements
We may disclose your information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or where we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, or protect the safety of our users.
4.4 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, user information may be transferred as part of the transaction. We will notify you via a prominent notice on our Services of any change in ownership or uses of your personal information.
4.5 With Your Consent
We may share your information in other circumstances with your explicit consent.
5. DATA STORAGE AND SECURITY
5.1 Data Storage
Your information is stored on secure servers provided by Supabase with additional security controls implemented. We also use Firebase only for notification data storage and delivery. We utilize a multi-layered caching system:
- Memory Cache (LRU): For frequently accessed data with limited size (50MB max)
- Local Cache (SharedPreferences): For user-specific data persistent across app sessions
- Remote Cache (Supabase): For shared data across user devices
- Firebase Cloud Messaging: For storing notification preferences and delivery status (not for analytics)
5.2 Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our Services. Specifically:
- User profiles and birth details: Until account deletion
- Inquiry history: Indefinitely until account deletion
- Chat messages and conversation history: Indefinitely until account deletion
- Friend data: Until you remove the friend or delete your account (see Section 6.2 for what removal erases)
- Website quiz answers, email, birth details, and generated digital products: Until you request deletion; purchase records are retained as required for tax, accounting, and legal compliance
- Technical logs and error reports: For the retention periods set by our hosting and monitoring providers (Supabase, Vercel, and Sentry)
- Analytics events (Mixpanel): Linked to your account ID and kept under the data-retention settings of our Mixpanel account. Deleting your account does not automatically delete these events from Mixpanel; you can ask us to delete them at info@cosmixapp.com
5.3 Security Measures
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include:
- Encryption in transit (TLS) for data sent between the App, the Website, our servers, and our service providers
- Encryption at rest for our database and file storage
- Encrypted API communications with AI service providers
- Secure token management
- Secure transmission of personal context data for chat processing
Chat messages are not end-to-end encrypted: our servers and the AI providers listed in Section 4.1 process their content in order to generate responses.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
5.4 Breach Notification
In the event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law — including, for New York residents, within 30 days as required by the New York SHIELD Act — and as otherwise required by state and federal breach-notification statutes.
6. YOUR RIGHTS AND CHOICES
6.1 Account Information
You can review and update your account information at any time through the Settings section of the App.
6.2 Friend Management
You can add, edit, or remove friend information through the Friends section of the App. When you remove a friend, we erase their name, birth details, birth chart, daily transit data, and relationship dashboard from our servers and keep only an anonymous placeholder record. Copies the App has cached on your own device (such as saved chart and transit data) stay on that device until you reinstall the App or clear its data. Inquiry results and chat conversations you created about that friend remain stored with your account until you delete your account.
6.3 Communication Preferences
You can opt out of promotional notifications in the App through your notification settings, and out of Website emails through the unsubscribe link in them or by contacting us at info@cosmixapp.com. An unsubscribe link stops the emails for the quiz submission it came from; if you took more than one quiz, you may need to unsubscribe from each.
6.4 Data Access and Portability
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. You can request this through the Settings section of the App or by contacting us at info@cosmixapp.com.
6.5 Data Deletion
You can request the deletion of your account and personal information in the following ways:
- Through the "Delete Account" option in the Settings section of the App
- By visiting our account deletion web page at: https://www.cosmixapp.com/account-deletion
- By contacting us at info@cosmixapp.com with your phone number and full name
Upon your request, we will permanently delete your account and associated personal information from our active systems within 30 days. Analytics events in Mixpanel are not deleted automatically when you delete your account (see Section 5.2); to have them deleted as well, email info@cosmixapp.com and ask for your Mixpanel data to be deleted. Some information may remain in our backup systems for a limited time, and we may retain certain information if required by law or for legitimate business purposes, such as:
- Information needed for security investigations or fraud prevention
- Information required to comply with legal obligations
- Anonymous, aggregated data that does not identify you
6.6 Limitation of Processing
In certain circumstances, you may have the right to restrict or object to our processing of your personal information.
6.7 Advertising Preferences
You have choices regarding how your device identifier is used for advertising purposes:
Android Users:
- You can reset or delete your Google Advertising ID at any time through your device settings
- Navigate to Settings > Privacy > Ads and select "Delete advertising ID" or "Opt out of Ads Personalization"
- Opting out will prevent us from using your Advertising ID for personalized ads, but you will still see advertisements (they may be less relevant to you)
- You can reset your Advertising ID to disassociate your device from previous advertising activity
iOS Users:
- We use Apple's privacy-preserving SKAdNetwork framework, which does not require opt-out as it does not track you or share personal identifiers
- No action is needed on your part as this framework is privacy-focused by design
What Happens When You Opt Out:
- You will continue to see advertisements in our app and across our advertising partners' platforms
- The ads you see may be less relevant to your interests
- We will no longer be able to attribute your actions to specific advertising campaigns
- Your opt-out choice applies to all apps that respect your device's advertising preferences
7. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete such information as quickly as possible. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at info@cosmixapp.com.
8. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than the country in which you reside. These countries may have data protection laws that are different from the laws of your country.
By using our Services, you consent to the transfer of your information to countries outside your country of residence, including the United States, where our servers and those of our third-party providers (including Supabase, Firebase, and Mixpanel) are located.
9. CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
If you are a California resident, you have certain rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), including:
- The right to know what personal information we collect about you
- The right to know whether your personal information is sold or disclosed and to whom
- The right to request deletion of your personal information
- The right to access your personal information
- The right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information
- The right to non-discrimination for exercising your CCPA rights
Advertising Identifier and CCPA: For California residents using Android devices, your Google Advertising ID is considered "personal information" under CCPA.

- Deleting or resetting your Advertising ID in your device settings (Settings > Privacy > Ads)
- Opting out of personalized advertising on your device
Website Tracking and CCPA: On our Website, we use the Meta Pixel and the Google tag for advertising measurement, which may constitute "sharing" under CCPA. You can opt out of this sharing by turning on Global Privacy Control in your browser, which we honor when your browser sends it (see Section 2.11), by blocking these technologies in your browser, using the Meta and Google ad-preference controls and industry opt-out tools listed in Section 2.11, or contacting us at info@cosmixapp.com.
To exercise these rights, please contact us at info@cosmixapp.com.
10. EUROPEAN PRIVACY RIGHTS
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):
- Right to access your personal information
- Right to rectification of inaccurate personal information
- Right to erasure of your personal information
- Right to restriction of processing
- Right to data portability
- Right to object to processing
- Right to withdraw consent
- Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Advertising Identifier and GDPR: For EU/EEA residents using Android devices, we rely on your consent for collecting and processing your Google Advertising ID for advertising purposes. By using our Services, you consent to this collection. You can withdraw your consent at any time by:
- Deleting or resetting your Advertising ID in your device settings (Settings > Privacy > Ads)
- Opting out of personalized advertising on your device
- Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal
The legal basis for processing your Advertising ID is your consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)). We share this identifier with Meta/Facebook as described in Section 4.1 of this policy.
To exercise these rights, please contact us at info@cosmixapp.com.
11. DATA SAFETY AND APP PERMISSIONS
Our app requires certain permissions and collects certain identifiers to function properly. Here's what each permission and identifier is used for:
- Storage: To save visualization cards and inquiry results locally on your device
- Phone: To verify your identity during account creation and recovery
- Notifications: To send you daily reminders, inquiry notifications, and friend activity updates through Firebase
- Contacts: With your explicit consent, to discover friends already using Cosmix by comparing hashed phone numbers (contact phone numbers are sent to our server over an encrypted connection, hashed there for the comparison, and not stored)
- Advertising ID (Android only): To measure advertising campaign effectiveness, attribute app installs to specific advertisements, deliver personalized advertising through our partners (Facebook/Meta), and optimize ad delivery
We value transparency about data collection and use. These permissions are requested through your device's standard permission prompts, and you can revoke them or reset your Advertising ID at any time through your device settings.
12. THIRD-PARTY ANALYTICS AND TRACKING
We use Mixpanel as our analytics platform to help us understand how users interact with our Services. Mixpanel may collect information sent by your device including:
- User interactions with app features
- Session duration and frequency
- Navigation patterns within the app
- Device events and crash data
- Feature usage statistics
Mixpanel events are linked to your Cosmix account ID, so they are not anonymous.
The App does not use cookies to track you across different websites or apps. On the Website, cookies, the Meta Pixel, and the Google tag are used only as described in Section 2.11 (Cookies and Tracking Technologies), which also describes your choices for blocking or limiting them. Our analytics are used solely for improving our Services and user experience, and data collected through these platforms is handled according to their respective privacy policies and our agreements with them.
12.1 Advertising Attribution via SKAdNetwork
We use Apple's SKAdNetwork framework in combination with Meta/Facebook for privacy-preserving advertising attribution. Here's what you need to know:
What is SKAdNetwork? SKAdNetwork is Apple's privacy-focused attribution framework that allows advertisers to measure the success of ad campaigns without compromising user privacy. It works at the operating system level and does not share any personal identifiers.
How We Use It:
- Install Attribution: When you install Cosmix from a Meta/Facebook advertisement, Apple's SKAdNetwork automatically and anonymously notifies Meta that an install occurred. This happens without any action from us and without sharing any information that identifies you personally.
- Purchase Attribution: When you complete a subscription purchase, we send an anonymous purchase event to Meta through the Facebook SDK. This helps Meta optimize ad delivery to show our ads to users who are more likely to be interested in subscribing.
Your Privacy is Protected:
- No ATT Prompt: We do NOT use App Tracking Transparency (ATT) or request permission to track you. Our SDK is explicitly configured to prevent tracking requests.
- No Cross-App Tracking: SKAdNetwork does not track your activity across other apps or websites.
- No Personal Identifiers: Neither Apple nor Meta receives information that personally identifies you (such as your name, email, phone number, or device ID) through SKAdNetwork.
- Privacy by Design: SKAdNetwork is built by Apple with privacy protections, including delayed and anonymized reporting.
Cannot Opt-Out: Because SKAdNetwork operates at the iOS system level and does not process personal data or track you across apps, there is no opt-out mechanism. However, this framework is designed to be privacy-preserving by default and complies with Apple's strict privacy standards.
Data Shared with Meta:
- Anonymous install signals (you installed the app from an ad, but not who you are)
- Anonymous purchase conversion events (a purchase occurred, but not who made it)
- Campaign performance data (which ads are effective, in aggregate)
For more information about SKAdNetwork, please visit Apple's documentation at: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/skadnetwork
12.2 Android Advertising ID
We use Google's Advertising ID on Android devices in combination with Meta/Facebook's advertising platform for advertising attribution and optimization. Here's what you need to know:
What is the Google Advertising ID? The Google Advertising ID (GAID) is a unique, user-resettable identifier provided by Google Play services. It allows advertisers and ad networks to track ad performance and deliver personalized advertisements while giving you control over your advertising experience.
How We Use It:
- Install Attribution: When you install Cosmix from a Meta/Facebook advertisement on your Android device, we collect your Advertising ID to attribute the install to the specific ad campaign. This helps us understand which advertising channels are most effective.
- Purchase Attribution: When you complete a subscription purchase, we send your Advertising ID along with the purchase event to Meta/Facebook. This helps optimize ad delivery to show our ads to users who are more likely to be interested in subscribing.
- Campaign Optimization: We use the Advertising ID to analyze how users from different ad campaigns interact with our app, allowing us to improve our advertising strategies.
- Personalized Advertising: Your Advertising ID enables Meta/Facebook to deliver more relevant advertisements to you across their platforms based on your interests and interactions.
Your Privacy Controls:
- Reset Your Advertising ID: You can reset your Advertising ID at any time, which disassociates your device from previous advertising activity. Navigate to Settings > Privacy > Ads and select "Reset advertising ID".
- Delete Your Advertising ID: You can completely delete your Advertising ID, which prevents apps from accessing it for advertising purposes. Navigate to Settings > Privacy > Ads and select "Delete advertising ID".
- Opt Out of Personalization: You can opt out of personalized advertising while keeping your Advertising ID. Navigate to Settings > Privacy > Ads and enable "Opt out of Ads Personalization".
What Happens When You Opt Out:
- Opting out will not prevent you from seeing advertisements, but the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests
- We will still collect your Advertising ID for basic attribution purposes unless you delete it entirely
- Your opt-out preference applies to all apps that respect Google's advertising policies
Data Shared with Meta/Facebook:
- Your Google Advertising ID
- Install events (that you installed the app)
- Purchase conversion events (that a purchase occurred and the purchase value)
- Campaign identifiers (which ad you clicked on)
- Interaction data (how you engage with the app after installation)
Cannot Opt Out of Attribution: If you choose to keep your Advertising ID (even with personalization opt-out), we will still use it for basic install and purchase attribution. To completely stop Advertising ID collection, you must delete your Advertising ID through your device settings.
Data Retention: We retain Advertising ID data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, typically:
- Active users: For the duration of your account plus 90 days
- Attribution data: Up to 2 years for campaign analysis and optimization
- After account deletion: We anonymize or delete your Advertising ID within 30 days
For more information about Google's Advertising ID, please visit: https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/6048248
12.3 Deep Linking and Universal Links
The App uses deep links and universal links (Apple App Site Association and Android App Links) to provide seamless navigation between the website and the mobile app. When you click a Cosmix link:
- The link may open directly in the Cosmix app if installed on your device
- No additional personal data is collected through this mechanism beyond standard web request data (IP address, user agent)
- Deep link URLs may contain shared content identifiers (such as invite codes or shared quiz result IDs) but do not contain personal information
13. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. For significant changes, we will provide additional notice, such as an in-app notification.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Your continued use of our Services after the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes.
