User Accounts & Authentication

YanaTips uses Supabase as its backend platform for secure user authentication and data storage. Your email and username are stored on Supabase-managed servers with industry-standard encryption and security practices.

You may delete your account at any time by contacting us at yanatips.app@gmail.com. Upon deletion, all personal data associated with your account will be permanently removed.

5

VIP Subscription

YanaTips offers a paid VIP subscription that unlocks premium predictions and exclusive features, in addition to a Free tier available at no cost. Subscriptions are managed through Google Play Billing. We do not process payments directly and never see or store your payment card details.

To activate and maintain your VIP subscription, we store a subscription identifier provided by Google Play, along with your subscription status and expiration date. This information is used solely to verify your subscription is valid and to determine when it expires or needs renewal. Purchasing VIP requires a registered account; guest accounts cannot subscribe, since a subscription must remain recoverable if you change devices.

Subscription management, cancellation, and refunds are handled through your Google Play account settings.

6

Advertisements

The free tier of YanaTips is supported by advertisements provided by Google AdMob. AdMob may use device identifiers and usage data to serve personalized ads based on your interests. You can opt out of personalized ads in your device settings under Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalization.

AdMob's data practices are governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

We also use the Meta (Facebook) SDK to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. This shares limited data โ€” such as your device's advertising identifier and app events like account registration or VIP subscription purchase โ€” with Meta, so we can understand which ads led to app installs or subscriptions. This does not include your email, username, or password. You can limit this in your device settings (Android: Settings > Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalization).

Meta's data practices are governed by Meta's Privacy Policy.
