This Privacy Policy explains how Alliance (“the App”), developed and operated by Amirbek Norov (“we,” “us,” or “our”), handles information when you use the Alliance mobile application.
Alliance is designed to help university students and prospective applicants access university-related information, explore campus locations, and use educational resources.
By using Alliance, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Developer Information
For privacy-related questions, requests, or concerns, please contact us using the email address provided above.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Personal Information
Alliance does not require users to create an account or provide personal information such as:
- Full name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Password
- University student ID
- Applicant ID
We do not intentionally collect personal information through account registration because Alliance does not require user accounts in its current planned configuration.
2.2 Device Location Information
Alliance may request access to your device's location to help you find nearby places and improve campus navigation.
Depending on the app's functionality and your permissions, location information may be used to:
- Identify your approximate position.
- Display nearby locations.
- Help you navigate university campuses and surrounding areas.
- Provide location-related features within the App.
Alliance uses approximate location only. Your location data is not sent to a server and is processed only on your device. We will not use your location for advertising purposes.
3. Firebase and Automatically Collected Information
Alliance uses Firebase services provided by Google to support app functionality, performance monitoring, and technical reliability.
Depending on the Firebase services enabled in the App, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:
- Device type and model.
- Operating system and version.
- App version.
- Basic app usage and interaction information.
- Crash reports and diagnostic information.
- Technical identifiers associated with the app or device.
- Approximate location derived from IP address, where applicable to the enabled Firebase services.
The actual information collected depends on the Firebase products configured in the released version of Alliance.

4. Advertising
Alliance does not display advertisements in its current planned configuration.

If advertising is introduced in a future version, this Privacy Policy will be updated to explain the relevant data practices before or when the new functionality is made available, as required by applicable law.

6. Sharing and Third Parties
We do not intentionally share personal information with third parties for advertising or sale.
However, certain service providers may process technical information as necessary to operate the App:
- Google Firebase: Alliance uses Firebase services provided by Google. Depending on the services enabled, Google may process technical information, app usage information, crash data, or other information described in Section 3. (Google's Privacy Policy)
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to:
- Comply with applicable laws or legal processes.

7. Data Retention
We do not maintain user accounts or intentionally collect personal information for account management.

Location information, if collected, will be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the relevant functionality, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information processed through Alliance against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
These measures may include appropriate app security practices, access controls, and the security protections provided by third-party services such as Firebase.
However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of information.
9. Your Privacy Choices and Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding personal information processed through Alliance, including:
- The right to request information about personal data we process.
- The right to request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- The right to request deletion of personal information.
- The right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
- The right to object to or restrict certain processing.
- The right to lodge a complaint with a relevant data protection authority.
Because Alliance does not require accounts, most app features can be used without providing personal information.
