3.1 Service Providers

5.3 Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The criteria we use to determine retention periods include:
- The duration of your use of the Application
- Whether you have deleted your account or uninstalled the Application
- Whether we have a legal obligation to retain the information
- Whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position (such as regarding statutes of limitations, litigation, or regulatory investigations)
When we no longer need to retain your information, we will delete it or anonymize it. If deletion is not possible (for example, because information has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store your information and isolate it from further processing until deletion is possible.
6. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location and applicable laws, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information.
6.1 Access and Correction
You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you and to request that we correct, update, or complete any inaccurate or incomplete information. Since FlipWall processes photos and media locally on your device, you maintain direct control over this content through your device's native file management systems.
6.2 Deletion
You have the right to request that we delete your personal information under certain circumstances, including:
- When the information is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected
- When you withdraw your consent (where consent was the legal basis for processing)

- When the information has been unlawfully processed
- When deletion is required to comply with a legal obligation
Please note that we may need to retain certain information for legal compliance, record-keeping purposes, or to complete transactions you initiated.

If you are a parent or guardian and you become aware that your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us using the contact information below. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers promptly.
