Thank you for using Surely ("we", "our", or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use the Surely mobile application (the "App"). By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the App.
We collect only the information necessary to operate, secure, and improve the App:
| Data Type | Examples | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Account Information | Email address, username | Authentication, account management |
| Profile Data | Profile picture (if provided) | Personalisation |
| Push Notification Token | Device-issued push token (FCM) | Delivering push notifications |
| Device Identifier | A persistent unique identifier generated at first registration on your device (X-Device-Id) |
Device binding, session security, account protection |
| Device Metadata | Platform (Android), app version, last seen timestamp, device registration timestamp | Device management, security monitoring |
| User Content | Comments, prediction interactions | Community features |
| Usage Data | Feature interactions, session events | Performance and product improvement |
| Advertising Identifiers | Google Advertising ID (GAID) | Ad serving and measurement (free tier only) |
We do not collect or store payment details, card numbers, or financial account information.
We use collected information exclusively to:
We do not use your information for automated profiling, scoring, or any purpose beyond those described above.
To protect your account and prevent unauthorised sharing of credentials, Surely implements a device binding system.
X-Device-Id — is transmitted with every authenticated API request to verify
that requests originate from a device you have authorised.
For each registered device we store: the device identifier, the platform, the app version at the time of registration, the timestamp of first registration, and the timestamp of the most recent authenticated request from that device.
Device limit: Each account may have a maximum of two simultaneously bound devices. If you attempt to bind a third device, you will be prompted to remove an existing device from the Manage Devices screen before proceeding.
Behaviour on logout: When you log out, your local authentication token is cleared. Your device identifier and its binding to your account are intentionally retained on our servers. This means that when you log back in on the same device, the existing binding is recognised and no new device slot is consumed. You may permanently remove a device binding via Profile → Manage Devices.
Device removal cooldown: A seven-day cooldown period applies after removing a device, during which no further devices may be removed. The cooldown expiry date is stored locally on your device solely to display the correct date in the app; it is not transmitted to third parties.
Local persistence: Your device identifier and the cooldown expiry timestamp (when applicable) are stored in your device's local secure preferences (Android EncryptedSharedPreferences). This data is not cleared on logout and is cleared only when you uninstall the application or delete your account.

| Service | Purpose | Data Collected |
|---|---|---|
| IronSource | Rewarded and interstitial ads | Device identifier, ad interactions |
| Unity Ads | Ad serving | Device identifier, ad interactions |
