1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to the Phone Cleaner Android application (the "App") provided by Barmotech ("we", "us", or "our"). By using the App, you acknowledge the practices described below.
2. Information processed on your device
The App may access and process the following information locally to provide its requested features:
- Files and file metadata, including file name, path, type, size, modification date, and duplicate or similar-file scan results.
- Storage capacity, cache information, battery status, CPU details, network status, and other device-status information.
- Installed-app information and app usage information when you use app management, app safety check, or usage-related features.
- Photos, videos, or other media that you explicitly select or scan for cleanup and recovery.
Cleanup selections, scan results, and recovery previews are primarily processed on the device. We do not sell the contents of your personal files.
3. Information collected or transmitted
The App contains advertising, analytics, push-notification, and fraud-prevention components. Depending on your device settings, consent choices, region, and the provider involved, these components may collect or transmit:
| Data category | Examples | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Device or other identifiers | Advertising ID, Android identifiers, app-set or vendor identifiers, IP address | Advertising, attribution, analytics, security, and fraud prevention |
| App activity | App interactions, ad views and clicks, installed-app or apps-on-device signals | Feature operation, ad delivery, frequency control, analytics, security, and fraud prevention |
| Device and diagnostics | Device model, operating-system version, language, crash data, performance and network information | Compatibility, reliability, analytics, and security |
| Approximate location | Country or region inferred from IP address; location signals where permitted | Regional content, advertising, analytics, and fraud prevention |
Advertising providers may use these data for personalized or non-personalized advertising according to your consent choices and device controls.
4. Third-party service providers
The App may use SDKs or services supplied by Google Mobile Ads (AdMob), AppLovin, Pangle, Meta Audience Network, Unity Ads, Mintegral, Liftoff/Vungle, Moloco, and DCloud services such as UniPush. These providers process data under their own privacy policies and act as independent controllers or service providers where applicable.
You can review key provider policies at Google, AppLovin, Pangle, and the other providers' official privacy pages.
5. Android permissions
Phone Cleaner requests permissions only when needed for available features. Depending on your Android version, these may include storage or media access, package visibility, usage access, notifications, network and Wi-Fi state, camera access, and location-related permissions required by Android for certain Wi-Fi functions. You may deny or revoke permissions in Android Settings, although the related feature may then be unavailable.
6. Sharing
We may share the categories described in Section 3 with advertising and service providers for ad delivery, measurement, analytics, push notifications, security, and fraud prevention. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect users or our rights, or as part of a business transfer. We do not sell your personal files.
7. Retention
Locally stored App data remains until you clear the App's storage or uninstall the App. Third-party providers retain transmitted data according to their own policies, legal requirements, and configured retention periods.
8. Your choices and rights
- Manage App permissions and special access in Android Settings.
- Reset or delete your Advertising ID and control ad personalization in your Google settings.
- Clear local App data or uninstall the App.
- Use consent controls shown in the App where required by law.
- Contact us to exercise privacy rights available in your jurisdiction.
9. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. No network transmission or storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Children's privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13, or the minimum age required in the user's jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided information through the App.
11. International processing
Advertising and service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Where required, providers use appropriate safeguards for international transfers.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes to the App, providers, or legal requirements. We will update the date above and provide additional notice when required.
