1. Introduction
Yono App Picks (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates https://yonoapppicks.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect when you visit the Site, how we use it, and the choices you have.
We are an independent editorial directory. We do not operate real-money gaming products, process player deposits or withdrawals, or host APK files on our servers. Our primary activity is publishing comparisons, editorial notes, and educational content about third-party apps and platforms.
By using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Site.
Last updated: 27 May 2026
2. Who this policy applies to
This policy applies to:
- Visitors who browse pages on yonoapppicks.com
- Users who use our on-site app search
- Anyone who contacts us by email
It does not govern third-party websites or apps linked from our listings. When you leave the Site or tap an external download or operator link, that third party’s privacy policy applies.
3. Information we collect
3.1 Information you provide voluntarily
We may receive information you choose to send us, for example:
- Email content when you write to support@yonoapppicks.com (your address, message body, and any attachments you include)
- Feedback about listing accuracy, broken links, or download-route status
We do not require account registration to browse the Site.
3.2 Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting and analytics tools may automatically record technical data, such as:
- IP address (often truncated or aggregated in analytics)
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Referring URL (where you came from)
- Pages viewed and approximate time on page
- Date and time of access
- General geographic region (e.g. country or city level), not precise GPS from us directly
We use this data to understand traffic patterns, fix errors, and improve content — not to identify you personally unless combined with information you send us.
3.3 Cookies and similar technologies
The Site may use:
- Essential cookies required for basic functionality (if any are enabled by our host or CDN)
- Analytics cookies when Google Analytics 4 (GA4) or similar services are configured in our site settings
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may affect some features but will not block read-only browsing of most pages.
We do not use cookies to run real-money gaming accounts or to store payment card data — we do not offer those services.
3.4 Search on the Site
Our app search feature loads a static index at build time and typically processes queries in your browser. We do not operate a logged-in search history server for visitors. Search terms are not stored by us in a user profile because profiles do not exist on this Site.
4. How we use information
We use collected information to:
- Operate, maintain, and secure the Site
- Respond to editorial and support enquiries
- Review reports about outdated bonus labels, withdrawal wording, or download links
- Measure aggregated traffic and content performance (when analytics is enabled)
- Comply with applicable law and enforce our Terms of Use
We do not sell your personal information to third parties for their independent marketing lists.
We do not use your data to open gaming wallets, approve KYC, or process UPI/bank transfers on behalf of operators.
5. Legal bases (where applicable)
Depending on your location, we rely on:
- Legitimate interests — running an informational website, improving editorial quality, and preventing abuse
- Consent — where required for non-essential cookies or optional communications you initiate
- Legal obligation — when we must retain or disclose information under law
6. Sharing and disclosure
We may share limited information with:
- Service providers that help us host the Site, deliver email, or provide analytics (under confidentiality obligations)
- Professional advisers (e.g. lawyers) when necessary for compliance or dispute resolution
- Authorities if required by valid legal process or to protect rights, safety, or security
When you follow an outbound link to an operator, app store, or messenger channel, that destination may collect its own data under its policies. We are not responsible for their practices.
7. International visitors
The Site is oriented toward readers in India (English, en-IN). Servers or service providers may be located in other countries. Where data crosses borders, we aim to use providers with appropriate safeguards, but protections vary by jurisdiction.
8. Data retention
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above, for example:
- Support emails: typically up to 24 months unless a longer period is needed for an open issue or legal hold
- Analytics: per the retention settings of the analytics provider (often 14–26 months by default for GA4)
Aggregated or de-identified statistics may be kept longer.
9. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures appropriate for a static editorial site (HTTPS, access controls on hosting accounts, limited admin access). No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Please do not send passwords for third-party gaming accounts to us — we will never ask for them.
10. Your rights and choices
Depending on applicable law (including principles similar to India’s digital privacy framework), you may have rights to:
- Access personal data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate information
- Delete certain data, subject to legal exceptions
- Object to or restrict some processing
- Withdraw consent where processing is consent-based
To exercise these rights, email support@yonoapppicks.com with the subject line “Privacy request”. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
You may also lodge a complaint with a relevant supervisory authority in your region, if one applies to our processing.
11. Children
The Site is intended for adults (18+ where real-money gaming is discussed). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you believe a minor has contacted us, please email us so we can delete the communication.
12. Third-party links and embedded content
Listings may link to external domains, Telegram channels, or download pages. Those sites may use pixels, SDKs, or forms we do not control. Review their policies before submitting personal or financial information.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our practices, tools, or legal requirements change. The “Updated” date at the top of the page will reflect the latest version. Material changes may also be noted on the Site where practical.
Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
