This policy covers the apps published by Sam Global on Google Play, including Think Math (com.ody.kids) and Sam PDF (com.samglobal.pdf), and this website. Each app also has a dedicated page where noted.
1. Data stored on your device
- Our apps do not require an account. We do not ask for your name, email, phone number, contacts or location for core features.
- Think Math: your optional display name, level, progress, settings and streaks are stored only on your device. A backup code, if you create one, is generated on your device.
- Sam PDF: every PDF tool (view, edit, sign, merge, split, compress, scan, OCR, password, redact) runs on your device. Files are never uploaded to us. See the Sam PDF privacy policy.
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
- Free versions show ads from Google AdMob. To serve and measure ads and prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect the advertising ID, IP address, device and app information, ad interactions and diagnostic data, processed under Google's policies.
- Users in the EEA, UK and Switzerland are asked for consent through Google's consent message (UMP). You can change your choice in the app under Settings › Ad privacy choices.
- Think Math ad requests are marked child-directed, rated General and non-personalised, and ads never appear while a puzzle is being solved.
- You can reset or delete your advertising ID in Android Settings › Google › Ads.
3. Analytics and crash reports
Sam PDF uses Firebase Analytics for coarse usage events (tool name, duration, error code) and Firebase Crashlytics for crash reports (device and OS information). These never include file names or file contents.
4. Permissions
Apps request only the permissions a feature needs, when you use it. Sam PDF uses the camera only to scan documents or signatures; images stay on your device.
5. Children
Think Math can be used by people of all ages, so it collects no personal information and its ads are configured as described above. Sam PDF is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
6. Sharing
We do not sell your data. Apart from Google (AdMob and Firebase) as described above, our apps do not send your data to third parties.
7. Retention and deletion
On-device data is deleted when you clear the app's data or uninstall it. See Delete your data. Emails you send us are kept only as long as needed to answer you.
8. This website
samglobal.app is a static site with no cookies, analytics or trackers. Our host, Cloudflare, may process standard server logs such as IP address for security.
9. Changes and contact
We update this page when our practices change. Contact: support@samglobal.app.
