No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. While we work to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
13. Third-Party Services and Links
AceStats may include links or interactions with third-party services, including the Apple App Store. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing them with personal information.
