I have often seen apps saying things like, 'we don't use any personally identifiable information; we aggregate and anonymize location data, stripping it of your IP address and storing only the region and ISP.' Or whatever. Not all metadata can identify or profile the individual from whom the data were generated.
Here's what they say on the Ad Observer website:
If you want, you can enter basic demographic information about yourself in the tool to help improve our understanding of why advertisers targeted you. However, we’ll never ask for information that could identify you.
If that's the case, then I don't think the statement is false. I tried to find a standalone privacy policy, but it's not in the GitHub readme.
