The label has no “Data Used to Track You” section.
No. Diary Journal With Lock'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 identifiers, 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. Diary Journal With Lock declares none, so it has no reason to show that prompt.
What Diary Journal With Lock collects instead
No tracking does not mean no collection. Diary Journal With Lock's label lists 1 data type, none of it linked to you:
- Identifiers — an account ID, screen name, customer number or a device-level ID such as the advertising identifier (not linked to you)
