Information We Collect

We may collect the following information when you use the app:

• An anonymous app user identifier generated on your device.
• Profile details you enter, such as name, relationship label, gender, birth date, birth time, country, city, and birth location details.
• Derived birth location details, such as latitude, longitude, and timezone, used to generate astrology readings.
• Device timezone used to calculate daily horoscope dates.
• Generated readings and horoscope results.
• Ad diagnostics or ad event information used to understand whether ads load correctly.
• Information collected by advertising partners, including Google AdMob, for ad serving, measurement, fraud prevention, and related purposes.

How We Use Information

• To create, save, and display profiles.
• To generate profile readings, year-ahead outlooks, and daily horoscopes.
• To resolve birth locations and timezones.
• To operate, debug, secure, and improve the app.
• To show and measure ads where permitted.
• To respond to support, privacy, and deletion requests.

Third-Party Services

Aster Vale may use these service providers:

• Convex for backend data storage and app functions.
• DeepSeek through an OpenAI-compatible API for generating astrology text from profile details.
• Open-Meteo geocoding for location and timezone lookup.
• Google AdMob and Google Mobile Ads SDK for advertising.
• Apple App Store and Google Play services for app distribution, crash reporting, analytics, billing, or platform operations where applicable.

Advertising And Consent

Aster Vale displays bottom banner ads, native ad cards, and limited interstitial ads after useful app content is available. Advertising partners may process device identifiers, ad interactions, approximate location inferred from network information, and related data for ad delivery, measurement, fraud prevention, and compliance. We request non-personalized ads by default. In regions where consent is required, we will request and manage consent as required by applicable law and platform rules.

Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information. We share data with service providers only as needed to operate the app, generate readings, provide ads, secure the service, comply with law, or respond to user requests.

Data Retention

We keep profile and reading data while needed to provide the app experience, unless deletion is requested or retention is required for legitimate operational, security, or legal reasons.

Data Deletion Requests

You may request deletion of your app data by contacting [email protected]. Because Aster Vale currently uses anonymous app profiles rather than account login, we may need information from your device or app profile to locate the correct records.

Children

Aster Vale is not designed for children and should not be used by children without appropriate parental or guardian involvement. If you believe a child has provided information through the app, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Entertainment-Only Content

Astrology readings and horoscopes are provided for entertainment and personal reflection. They are not medical, legal, financial, mental health, or professional advice.

Changes To This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
