Country of the user is used to automate various settings within the app such as Country, Currency, Number Format, Date format, Tax settings and Financial Year cycle. We have different prices for different countries, and hence this field may also affect the prices of our products. The IP Address is retrieved only once on 1st execution, and it is NOT STORED on our servers or within the persistent storage of the app.

vi. Google Accounts : Since a user making in-app purchase may have multiple google accounts on their device, they could have made the purchase from any of these accounts. many users typically do not know which account made the purchase. So, they make the purchase from account A, whereas place the support query using email of account B. So, we often face difficulty in mapping in-app purchases to support queries , therefore the app attempts to capture the list of Google Accounts on the device, so that any incoming support query can be reliably mapped to the purchaser.
