The label has no “Data Used to Track You” section.
No. Note Lock~Lock your Tales Safe's label has no “Data Used to Track You” section, so the developer states it does not link your data with other companies' data for advertising or sell it to data brokers. It does collect diagnostics, none of it linked to you.
What “tracking” means on an iPhone
Apple defines tracking as linking data from this app with data from other companies' apps, websites or offline sources for targeted advertising or ad measurement, or sharing it with a data broker. It is narrower than “collecting data”: an app can collect a lot without tracking you, and a small app can track you with a single advertising SDK.
Since iOS 14.5, App Tracking Transparency requires every app to ask before it accesses your device's advertising identifier or otherwise tracks you. The App Store label is where the developer declares which of its data is used that way. Note Lock~Lock your Tales Safe declares none, so it has no reason to show that prompt.
What Note Lock~Lock your Tales Safe collects instead
No tracking does not mean no collection. Note Lock~Lock your Tales Safe's label lists 1 data type, none of it linked to you:
- Diagnostics — crash logs, launch times, hang rates and energy use (not linked to you)
