I am a developer and use the data from Pinch Media. First with Pinch Media I can not find the UDID of the users of my applications, the data a developer gets is the following: IPhone Model Number of unique users per day How long have been connected to the application Many sessions are open the possible country of origin with the source IP address(which they don't tell me) If want the user's geolocation I have to call a function that always warns the user if permitted Geolocation. One thing is that if we can put as checkpoints to see what parts of the application clics our users (if you went to the screen credits, the tutorial .. etc) Period .. nothing more. So developers who use Pinch Media do not know any personal information from you. Only statistical number of users and potential distribution. We use this to contrast with the numbers that Apple said the sales of our applications, and to have an idea of some use given to the application. Saying that we the developers have personal information of users is simply a lie. Another thing is the possible misuse of which can make the Pinch Media, which I doubt they have that interest .. but they are able to do so. Hi,

Don’t make a scandal for so little. I am a developer and use the data from Pinch Media. First with Pinch Media I can not find the UDID of the users of my applications, the data a developer gets is the following:

IPhone Model
Number of unique users per day
How long have been connected to the application
Many sessions are open
the possible country of origin with the source IP address(which they don’t tell me)

If want the user’s geolocation I have to call a function that always warns the user if permitted Geolocation.

One thing is that if we can put as checkpoints to see what parts of the application clics our users (if you went to the screen credits, the tutorial .. etc)
