Date d’entrée en vigueur: 13 octobre 2025

AppLovin Corporation (ci-après dénommé « AppLovin », « nous », « nos », ou « notre ») exploite une série d’outils pour les développeurs d’applications et autres entreprises en vue d’automatiser et d’optimiser le marketing et la monétisation de leurs plateformes, produits ou services en permettant le placement de divers types de publicités sur des supports numériques, notamment les applications mobiles, les sites Internet et les téléviseurs connectés (ci-après collectivement dénommés « Services publicitaires » ou « Services »).   Comme expliqué ci-dessous, les consommateurs interagissent avec nous de plusieurs manières, principalement par le biais de publicités diffusées par AppLovin pour le compte d’annonceurs.

La Politique de confidentialité d’AppLovin (la présente « Politique de confidentialité ») décrit la manière dont nous collectons, utilisons et partageons les informations par le biais de nos Services, notre plateforme publicitaire, et notre site Internet www.applovin.com (le « Site»), ainsi que vos options relatives à ces informations.

Nos Services publicitaires

Cette section détaille les informations que nous collectons, utilisons et partageons par le biais de nos Services publicitaires.

Collecte et utilisation des informations générales

Si vous téléchargez et utilisez une application intégrant le kit de développement (SDK) d’AppLovin ou interagissez autrement avec les Services par l’intermédiaire de publicités diffusées sur un support numérique, nous pouvons collecter certaines informations, notamment:

Les données d’appareils, d’application et de navigateur

  • La marque, le modèle, le matériel informatique et le système d’exploitation de l’appareil;
  • Les propriétés de l’appareil concernant l’affichage, la taille de l’écran, son orientation, le volume sonore, les paramètres vidéo, la batterie, l’utilisation de la mémoire, les paramètres et le démarrage;
  • Les paramètres de l’appareil concernant l’accessibilité et
    la taille de la police; 
  • L’opérateur mobile 
  • Le nom, les propriétés, les performances, les informations de session et les informations d’installation de l’application mobile au moyen de laquelle un consommateur interagit avec les Services;
  • Le pays, le fuseau horaire et les paramètres régionaux (pays et langue préférée);
  • Le type et la vitesse de la connexion réseau;
  • L’adresse IP;
  • L’agent utilisateur du navigateur Internet et l’environnement logiciel utilisé pour accéder aux Services;
  • Les informations d’en-têtes HTTP et relatives à la requête,;
  • Les identifiants publicitaires (IDFA, GAID, ID publicitaire Amazon);
  • Les identifiants fournisseurs (IDFV);
  • Les identifiants d’ensemble d’applications (App Set IDs); et
  • Les préférences et limitations de publicité et de suivi.

Les annonceurs (l’annonceur lui-même ou via un fournisseur de services tiers agissant en son nom) peuvent également partager des données transactionnelles ou d’autres données « événement » liées à l’interaction d’un consommateur avec une application, telles que des informations sur les actions effectuées dans une application, comme des achats ou des installations d’applications.

Collecte et utilisation des informations propres aux publicités de commerce électronique

Si vous êtes un consommateur qui interagit avec les Services via une plateforme de commerce électronique ou un site Internet de marchand, il est possible que nous collections certaines informations supplémentaires que vous avez fournies sur la plateforme de commerce électronique ou auprès du marchand, (que ce soit via notre SDK, notre pixel, l’API d’un tiers ou d’autres technologies similaires), notamment les éléments suivants:

  • Identifiants d’utilisateur;
  • Comportement de navigation lié aux achats (par ex. vues) et historique de recherches;
  • Enregistrements de produits achetés ou envisagés (par ex. ajoutés au panier, passage en caisse);
  • Historique d’achats;

  • Informations liées aux interactions de l’utilisateur avec les partenaires publicitaires ainsi qu’avec les sites et publicités de leurs partenaires marchands.

Collecte de vos informations

Ces informations peuvent être collectées automatiquement sur différentes applications mobiles et appareils, ou reçues de tiers via diverses technologies au fil du temps. Nous pouvons également combiner les informations que nous collectons avec d’autres informations que nous obtenons par le biais de techniques analytiques, et nous utiliserons ces informations combinées pour fournir les Services. 

Utilisation de vos informations

Nous utilisons généralement les informations que nous collectons pour:

  • Fournir les Services, y compris notre technologie publicitaire basée sur l’IA, les maintenir et les améliorer, ainsi que rechercher et développer de nouveaux Services;
  • Promouvoir la sûreté, la sécurité et l’intégrité des Services;
  • Fournir des solutions de mesure, d’analyse et de rapports;
  • Respecter nos obligations légales et réglementaires.

Nous utilisons une technologie publicitaire basée sur l’IA afin d’améliorer nos Services et produits de publicité et de proposer des publicités pertinentes susceptibles de vous intéresser. Nous l’utilisons d’une manière qui ne produit pas d’effets juridiques ni d’autres effets importants similaires à votre égard (par exemple, en utilisant cette technologie pour fournir une publicité pour un produit qui pourrait vous intéresser, ou en réorganisant l’affichage des publicités lorsque vous consultez une propriété numérique telle qu’une application mobile ou un site Internet).

Partage d’informations

Nous pouvons partager les informations que nous collectons ou dérivons avec des tiers dans les contextes suivants:

  • Fournisseurs de services. Nous transférons des informations aux fournisseurs de services et à d’autres partenaires qui soutiennent notre entreprise, tels que ceux qui fournissent des services d’infrastructure technique, analysent la façon dont nos Services sont utilisés, mesurent l’efficacité de nos publicités et de nos services, fournissent un service client ou facilitent les paiements. Ces partenaires doivent se soumettre à de strictes obligations de confidentialité, conformément à la présente Politique de confidentialité et aux accords que nous passons avec eux.
  • Sociétés affiliées. Nous pouvons partager des informations avec des sociétés appartenant au groupe AppLovin à des fins conformes à la présente Politique de confidentialité.
  • Partenaires publicitaires. Nous partageons des informations avec nos partenaires publicitaires tiers, y compris des annonceurs, des réseaux publicitaires, des échanges, des plateformes côté demande (DSP), des marchands, d’autres partenaires publicitaires (qui rassemblent leurs propres sources de demande) et des partenaires d’optimisation et de mesure/d’attribution (tels que des partenaires de mesure mobile, ou « MMP ») afin de fournir des Services publicitaires à nos clients. Ces informations peuvent être utilisées par nos partenaires tiers pour mesurer l’efficacité de nos publicités, proposer des publicités pour des produits ou des services susceptibles de plaire aux utilisateurs finaux (principe connu sous le nom de publicité basée sur les centres d’intérêt ou publicité comportementale) et pour entreprendre des analyses pour analyser la fréquentation des sites et des autres activités publicitaires dans l’objectif d’améliorer l’expérience de l’utilisateur.

    Sauf indication contraire dans notre liste de partenaires, chaque partenaire publicitaire d’AppLovin est un responsable indépendant du traitement de vos données. Vous pouvez consulter la liste des partenaires publicitaires d’AppLovin avec lesquels nous partageons vos données ici, telle qu’existante à la date indiquée en haut de cette page.

    Si vous ne souhaitez pas recevoir de publicités basées sur vos centres d’intérêt, veuillez consulter la section « Gérer vos choix en matière de confidentialité » ci-dessous. Si vous êtes situé dans l’Union européenne, au Royaume-Uni ou en Suisse, vous pouvez également vous reporter à la section « Clauses additionnelles pour les résidents de l’Union européenne/du Royaume-Uni » ci-dessous pour plus d’options. Si vous êtes résident d’un État des États-Unis ayant promulgué une loi exhaustive sur la confidentialité des consommateurs, vous pouvez également consulter la section « Avis de confidentialité multi-États des États-Unis » ci-dessous pour plus d’options.

    Veuillez noter que les pratiques de nos partenaires publicitaires tiers plaçant des publicités via nos Services sont soumises aux politiques de confidentialité de ces partenaires.
  • Contraintes réglementaires ou légales. Nous pouvons divulguer des informations aux autorités réglementaires gouvernementales si la loi l’exige, notamment à des fins fiscales ou comptables, en cas de demandes de leur part ou pour contribuer à leurs enquêtes. Nous pouvons également divulguer des informations personnelles aux tiers dans le cadre de réclamations, de litiges et d’actions en justice si une loi applicable ou une ordonnance du tribunal l’exige.
  • Sécurité et application des conditions. Nous pouvons divulguer des informations si nous déterminons, à notre entière discrétion, que cela est nécessaire pour protéger votre santé, votre sécurité, vos droits ou ceux d’une autre personne; afin de nous protéger contre les fraudes, ou pour faire valoir nos droits, y compris les engagements contractuels de nos partenaires tiers.
  • Transferts d’entreprise. Nous pouvons divulguer des informations personnelles dans le cadre d’une transaction commerciale sociétale (par exemple une fusion, une acquisition, une entreprise commune, un financement ou la vente d’actifs sociétaux). Nous pouvons transférer des informations personnelles à un tiers en tant qu’actif dans une telle transaction. Nous pouvons également divulguer des informations personnelles en cas d’insolvabilité, de faillite ou de mise sous séquestre.

Gérer vos choix en matière de confidentialité

Pour limiter la collecte d’informations provenant de vos appareils mobiles, veuillez consulter les paramètres de votre appareil pour définir la fonction « Limiter le suivi des publicités » ou toute autre fonction similaire sur votre appareil. En outre, vous pouvez choisir de ne plus recevoir de publicités basées sur les centres d’intérêt dans les publicités diffusées par AppLovin ; pour des instructions détaillées, veuillez consulter Comment AppLovin choisit les publicités que vous voyez. Vous pouvez également gérer la collecte de données par certaines entreprises en vous rendant sur une plateforme de choix des consommateurs de l’industrie, telle que la NAI (Network Advertising Initiative, https://optout.networkadvertising.org/) ou la DAA (Digital Advertising Alliance, https://optout.aboutads.info/).  Vous pouvez continuer à recevoir des publicités après avoir limité le traitement de vos informations à des fins de publicité basée sur les centres d’intérêt, mais ces publicités seront moins susceptibles de correspondre à vos centres d’intérêt. 

Pour accéder ou supprimer les données collectées par AppLovin sur votre appareil, vous pouvez télécharger l’application de gestion de la confidentialité AppLovin (« AppLovin Privacy Management App ») depuis l’App Store d’Apple ou le Google Play Store:

En naviguant dans les onglets de AppLovin Privacy Management App, vous pouvez effacer les informations personnelles qu’AppLovin peut avoir collectées à votre sujet ou demander une copie de ces informations personnelles.

Sécurité et conservation de vos informations

Nous mettons en œuvre des mesures raisonnables afin de sécuriser les informations que nous collectons par le biais des Services. Nous conservons les données collectées par le biais des Services pendant des durées limitées, allant généralement jusqu’à deux (2) ans.

Veuillez noter que nous pouvons conserver certaines informations dans nos systèmes aussi longtemps que nécessaire pour nous conformer à nos obligations légales, résoudre des litiges et faire appliquer nos accords..

AppLovin Corporation (“AppLovin,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates a suite of tools for app developers and other businesses to automate and optimize the marketing and monetization of their platforms, products, or services by enabling the placement of different types of advertisements on digital properties including mobile apps, websites, and connected TV devices (collectively, the “Advertising Services” or “Services”).  As explained below, consumers interact with us in various ways, primarily through advertisements served by AppLovin on behalf of advertisers.

The AppLovin Privacy Policy (this “Privacy Policy”) explains how we collect, use, and share information through our Services and advertising platform, and our corporate website at www.applovin.com (the “Website”), as well as your choices related to that information.

Our Advertising Services

This section describes the information we collect, use, and share through our Advertising Services.

General Information Collection and Use

If you are a consumer who downloads and uses an application which contains the AppLovin SDK or otherwise interacts with the Services through advertisements served within a digital property, we may collect certain information, including the following:

Device, App, and Browser Data

  • Device make, model, hardware, and operating system;
  • Device properties related to screen, display, size, orientation, audio, video, battery, memory usage, settings, and boot time;
  • Device settings related to accessibility features and font size; 
  • Carrier;
  • Name, properties, performance, session information, and installation information of mobile application through which a consumer interacts with the Services;
  • Country, time zone, and locale settings (country and preferred language);
  • Network connection type and speed;
  • IP Address;
  • Internet browser user-agent and software environment used to access the Services;
  • HTTP header and request information;
  • Advertising IDs (IDFA/GAID/Amazon Advertising ID);
  • Vendor IDs (IDFV);
  • App Set IDs; and
  • Advertising and tracking preferences and restrictions.

Advertisers (through the advertiser itself or through a third party service provider on behalf of such advertiser) may also share transactional or other “event” data related to a consumer’s interaction with an application, such as information about the actions taken in an application like purchases or application installations.

Information Collection and Use Specific to e-Commerce Ads Only

If you are a consumer who interacts with the Services through an e-commerce platform or merchant website, we may collect certain additional information that you provided to the e-commerce platform or merchant (either through our SDK or pixel or through a third party’s API or other similar technologies), including the following:

  • User IDs;
  • Shopping browsing behavior (e.g., views) and search history;
  • Records of products purchased or considered (e.g., added to cart, check out);
  • Purchasing histories;
  • Hashed email addresses and phone numbers; and
  • Information regarding user interactions with advertising partners and their merchant partners’ sites and advertisements.

How We Collect Your Information

This information may be collected automatically across mobile apps and devices or received from third parties across different technologies over time. We may also combine information we collect with other information we derive through analytical techniques and we will use that combined information to provide the Services.  

How We Use Your Information

We generally use the information we collect to:

  • Deliver the Services, maintain, and improve them, including our AI-powered advertising technology, and research and develop new ones;
  • Promote safety, security, and integrity of Services;
  • Provide measurement, analytics, and reporting; and
  • Comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

We use AI-powered advertising technology to help us improve our advertising products and Services and serve ads that are relevant and interesting to you. We use it in ways that do not produce legal or similarly significant effects on you (for example, we may use such technology to provide an ad for a product you may be interested in or to reorder how advertisements might appear when you visit a digital property such as a mobile app or a website).

Information Sharing

We may share information we collect or derive with third parties in the following contexts:

  • Service Providers. We transfer information to service providers and other partners who support our business, such as those that provide technical infrastructure services, analyze how our Services are used, measure the effectiveness of ads and services, provide customer service, or facilitate payments. These partners must adhere to strict confidentiality obligations in a way that is consistent with this Privacy Policy and the agreements we enter into with them.
  • Affiliates. We may share information within the AppLovin family of companies for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.
  • Advertising Partners. We share information with our third-party advertising partners, including advertisers, ad networks, exchanges, demand side platforms, merchants, other advertising partners (who aggregate their own demand sources), and ad optimization and measurement/attribution partners (e.g., mobile measurement partners or “MMPs”) to provide our clients with Advertising Services. This information may be used by such third-party partners to measure how effective ads are, show advertisements to end users for products and services that are more likely to appeal to them (a practice known as interest-based advertising or behavioral advertising), and to undertake analytics to analyze traffic and other ad activity to improve the advertising experience.

    Unless otherwise noted in our partner list, each AppLovin advertising partner is an independent controller of your data. You can view a list of AppLovin advertising partners with whom we share your data here, current as of the date listed at the top of that page.

    If you do not want to receive “interest-based advertisements,” please see the “Manage Your Privacy Choices” section below. If you are located in the European Union, UK, or Switzerland, you may also see the “Additional Provisions for EU/UK/Swiss Individuals” section below for more options. If you are an individual resident of the U.S. states that have enacted comprehensive consumer privacy laws, you may also review the “U.S. Multistate Privacy Notice” section below for more options.

    Please note that the practices of our third-party advertising partners delivering advertisements through our Services are subject to those partners’ own privacy policies.
  • Regulatory or Legal Requirements. We may disclose information to governmental regulatory authorities as required by law, including for tax or accounting purposes, in response to their requests for such information or to assist in investigations. We may also disclose personal information to third parties in connection with claims, disputes, or litigation, or when otherwise required by law or court order.
  • Safety and Terms Enforcement. We may disclose information if we determine, in our sole discretion, that its disclosure is necessary to protect the health, safety, or rights of you or any other person, protect against fraud, or enforce our legal rights, including contractual commitments made to us by third parties.
  • Business Transfers. We may disclose personal information as part of an organizational business transaction, such as a merger, acquisition, joint venture, financing, or sale of organizational assets, and may transfer personal information to a third party as one of the business assets in such a transaction. We may also disclose personal information in the event of insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership.

Data Security and Retention

We implement reasonable measures to help secure the information we collect through the Services.

Additional Provisions for EU/UK/Swiss Individuals

If you are located in the European Union, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the following additional provisions apply to you.

Data Privacy Framework

AppLovin complies with the EU-U.S Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

AppLovin has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (EU-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union and the United Kingdom in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF.  AppLovin has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.

If you are an EU, UK, or Swiss individual, where we transfer your personal data to third party service providers (see above) who perform services for us or on our behalf, we are responsible for the processing of that data by them and shall remain liable if they process your personal data in a manner inconsistent with the DPF Principles, unless we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage. 

With respect to personal data received or transferred pursuant to the Data Privacy Framework, AppLovin is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. In certain situations, AppLovin may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

In compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF, AppLovin commits to resolve DPF Principles-related complaints about our collection and use of your personal information. EU, UK, and Swiss individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding our handling of personal data received in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF should first contact AppLovin at [email protected]. AppLovin refers unresolved complaints to TRUSTe, an alternative dispute resolution provider based in the United States.  If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your DPF Principles-related complaint from us, or if we have not addressed your DPF Principles-related complaint to your satisfaction, please visit https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request for more information or to file a complaint.  These dispute resolution services are provided at no cost to you.

For complaints regarding DPF compliance not resolved by any of the other DPF mechanisms, you have the possibility, under certain conditions, to invoke binding arbitration. Further information can be found on the official DPF website.

Lawful Basis for Processing

On certain occasions, we process your personal data when it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, such as to provide services to you. We may also process your personal data to respond to your inquiries concerning our products and services.

On other occasions, we process your personal data where required by law. We may also process your personal data if necessary to protect your interests or the interests of a third party.

Additionally, we process your personal data when necessary to do so for fraud prevention, improving our network and services, and marketing our services to advertisers and publishers, where these interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.

Otherwise, we will generally ensure that consent has been obtained from you if there is no other lawful basis for such processing. You have the right to withdraw your consent to processing of personal data at any time.

If personal data covered by this Privacy Policy is to be used for a new purpose that is materially different from that for which the personal data was originally collected or subsequently authorized, or is to be disclosed to a non-agent third party in a manner not specified in this Privacy Policy, we will provide you with an opportunity to choose whether to have your personal data so used or disclosed. Requests to opt out of such uses or disclosures of personal data should be sent to us as specified in the “Contact” section below. Certain personal data, such as information about medical or health conditions, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, is considered “Sensitive Information.” AppLovin does not collect or seek to elicit “Sensitive Information.”

For questions about data processing, please contact our Data Protection Officer. Visit the “Contact” section below for contact information.

Your Rights

If you are an individual in the EU, UK, or Switzerland, you are able:

  • To request access to the personal data we hold about you;
  • To request that we rectify or erase your personal data;
  • To request that we restrict or block the processing of your personal data;
  • Under certain circumstances, to receive personal data about you that we store and transmit to another without hindrance from us, including requesting that we provide your personal data directly to another, i.e., a right to data portability; and
  • Where we previously obtained your consent, to withdraw consent to processing your personal data.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at the email address set forth in the “Contact Us” section below.  Our Data Protection Officer can also be reached at this email address.  Please be aware that we may be unable to afford these rights to you under certain circumstances, such as if we are legally prevented from doing so.

In certain circumstances, you may appoint an authorized agent to exercise any rights that you may have on your behalf.  If you choose to exercise any rights through an authorized agent, you will need to verify your identity directly with us before we can process any requests.  In addition, we will need written documentation demonstrating the authorized agent’s authority to act on your behalf.

Additionally, you have the right to lodge a complaint against us. To do so, contact the supervisory authority in your country of residence.

AppLovin complies with the EU-U.S Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

AppLovin has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (EU-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union and the United Kingdom in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF.  AppLovin has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles and/or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, the Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.

If you are an EU, UK, or Swiss individual, where we transfer your personal data to third party servicer providers (see above) who perform services for us or on our behalf, we are responsible for the processing of that data by them and shall remain liable if they process your personal data in a manner inconsistent with the DPF Principles, unless we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage. 

With respect to personal data received or transferred pursuant to the Data Privacy Framework, AppLovin is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. In certain situations, AppLovin may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

In compliance with the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF, AppLovin commits to resolve DPF Principles-related complaints about our collection and use of your personal information. EU, UK, and Swiss individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding our handling of personal data received in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF should first contact AppLovin at [email protected]. AppLovin refers unresolved complaints to TRUSTe, an alternative dispute resolution provider based in the United States.  If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your DPF Principles-related complaint from us, or if we have not addressed your DPF Principles-related complaint to your satisfaction, please visit https://feedback-form.truste.com/watchdog/request for more information or to file a complaint.  These dispute resolution services are provided at no cost to you.

For complaints regarding DPF compliance not resolved by any of the other DPF mechanisms, you have the possibility, under certain conditions, to invoke binding arbitration. Further information can be found on the official DPF website.

Lawful Basis for Processing

On certain occasions, we process your personal data when it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, such as to provide services to you. We may also process your personal data to respond to your inquiries concerning our products and services.

On other occasions, we process your personal data where required by law. We may also process your personal data if necessary to protect your interests or the interests of a third party.

Additionally, we process your personal data when necessary to do so for fraud prevention, improving our network and services, and marketing our services to advertisers and publishers, where these interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.

Otherwise, we will generally ensure that consent has been obtained from you if there is no other lawful basis for such processing. You have the right to withdraw your consent to processing of personal data at any time.

If personal data covered by this Privacy Policy is to be used for a new purpose that is materially different from that for which the personal data was originally collected or subsequently authorized, or is to be disclosed to a non-agent third party in a manner not specified in this Privacy Policy, we will provide you with an opportunity to choose whether to have your personal data so used or disclosed. Requests to opt out of such uses or disclosures of personal data should be sent to us as specified in the “Contact” section below. Certain personal data, such as information about medical or health conditions, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, is considered “Sensitive Information.” AppLovin does not collect or seek to elicit “Sensitive Information.”

  • To request that we rectify or erase your personal data;
  • To request that we restrict or block the processing of your personal data;

To exercise these rights, please contact us at the email address set forth in the “Contact Us” section below.  Our Data Protection Officer can also be reached at this email address.  Please be aware that we may be unable to afford these rights to you under certain circumstances, such as if we are legally prevented from doing so.

In certain circumstances, you may appoint an authorized agent to exercise any rights that you may have on your behalf.  If you choose to exercise any rights through an authorized agent, you will need to verify your identity directly with us before we can process any requests.  In addition, we will need written documentation demonstrating the authorized agent’s authority to act on your behalf.

Additionally, you have the right to lodge a complaint against us. To do so, contact the supervisory authority in your country of residence.

  • Dishonest Pricing Practices: Ads that fail to disclose the full payment model or cost, promote products or services as free when they require payment, deceptively suggest that certain sales or promotions may be time limited when in fact they continue for significant periods of time, charge users without their knowledge or consent, or create unnecessary hurdles for cancellation or returns.
  • Deceptive or Misleading Ad Designs or Elements: Ads that include content, experiences, designs, elements, or behavior that could be deceptive or misleading.  Examples include ads that obscure their promotional nature, such as those imitating system notifications or including fake interactive elements like overlaid non-functional close buttons; elements like redirects to unwanted content without user action; fake messages that lead to an ad or landing page when clicked; fake error or update messages; fake system messages or flags; malware or unwanted software or downloads; or any other designs or elements that mislead users or attempt to trick them into interactions, engagement, or sharing their personal information.
  • Unrealistic or Exaggerated Claims: Ads that make unsubstantiated, unrealistic, or exaggerated promises, such as claims of extraordinary financial returns, the ability to earn real money in properties that do not have that capability, miracle cures for health conditions.
  • Inconsistent Information: Ads and landing pages that do not match, include inconsistent information on the product, price, promotion, or similar details, or do not include key information like product descriptions, disclaimers, or terms and conditions.  Examples include ads that depict one product but send users to landing pages for a different product or a similar product but with different details. 
  • Misinformation: Content that features inaccurate, misleading, or false information that may cause significant harm to individuals or society.  Examples include ads that reference violent or hateful conspiracy theories, ads that may discourage people from getting appropriate medical care, and ads that attempt to undermine well-established scientific consensus. 

Ads can include:

  • The general suggestion that the use of the product(s) may improve mental clarity or sharpness or have similar effects (e.g., “playing this game may help improve your vocabulary and train your brain”).
  • Endorsements (e.g., “doctor approved”), testimonials or positive reviews, accolades (e.g., “award winning”), or similar claims for the product(s), if accurate and proven by documented support on the landing page(s) (e.g., evidence, clinical research, or scientific support).  For example, a product can claim to be “doctor recommended” or “the favorite product of a well-known celebrity,” if those claims would be accurate and can be proven by information available on the landing page(s).
