App Tracking
Our app, Best VPN Proxy Betternet, uses software code provided by our business partners (software development kits or SDKs) that let our software interact with the services those partners provide. Sometimes these interactions will involve that business partner collecting some information from the device on which the software is run. In the free version of this app, we may use SDKs to enable our app to serve ads from an advertising network. As noted in our VPN Privacy Policy, we do not track, record or associate any behaviors from VPN connection browsing activities for advertising purposes. Below are SDKs currently enabled for advertising purposes.
Analytics
Adcolony
Unity
Ironsource
