  • Location information (if you allow location access, we may collect approximate or precise location data to provide location-based services).

1.3. Data from Third-Party Services

We may collect information about you from third-party services (e.g., analytics providers, advertising networks, or social media platforms) if you use those services in connection with our Services, such as when you link your social media account.
