MedManage does not make use of any such data since the application does not contain any ad-enabled content. MedManage only stores the OneSignal ID, which is strictly used for sending personalized messages to our users containing medication related information.

For a detailed description of the data collected by OneSignal’s SDK you can visit their privacy policy page here and read any mobile SDK related sections.

Crashlytics: The MadManage Android client uses crashlytics to identify any real-time crashes that are happening in the application, to be able to provide app updates in a timely manner.

At the moment, MedManage hasn’t embedded any other crashlytics functionality within our application apart from automatic crash reporting.
