Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use FileRecovery App (the “App”). The App helps you scan for and recover supported files from your device storage. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it.

1. Scope

This policy applies to the App on Android devices and any related services provided through the App.

2. Information We Collect

The App may collect the following types of information depending on the features you use and how the App is configured (for example, whether ads or analytics are enabled).

A. Files and Device Storage Access

To scan and recover files, the App may request permission to access device storage (for example READ_MEDIA_*, READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, or Storage Access Framework). File scanning and recovery are performed on your device. We do not upload your recovered files or file contents to our servers.

B. Automatically Collected App & Device Data

The App may collect basic technical information to improve stability and performance, such as:

• Device model, operating system version, language
• App version and feature usage (e.g., screens opened, buttons tapped)
• Crash logs and diagnostic data (to fix bugs)
• Approximate network information (e.g., IP address) for security and connectivity troubleshooting

C. Advertising Data (If Ads Are Shown)

If the App displays ads, advertising partners may collect device identifiers such as the Android Advertising ID and information about ad interactions, subject to their own privacy policies. You can limit or reset the Advertising ID in your device settings.

3. How We Use Information

• Core functionality: scanning for and recovering supported files
• Performance & reliability: diagnosing crashes, improving app stability and speed
• Analytics: understanding feature usage to improve the user experience
• Security: preventing abuse and protecting the integrity of the App
• Ads (if applicable): displaying and measuring advertisements

4. Permissions

The App may request the following permissions depending on features:

• Storage / Media access: to scan and recover files
• Notifications (optional): to show recovery progress or important updates

You can revoke permissions at any time in your device settings. Some features may not work without required permissions.

5. Third-Party Services

The App may use third-party services for analytics, crash reporting, advertising, or distribution. Examples include:

These providers may collect and process data under their own privacy policies. We do not sell your personal data.

6. Data Retention

Recovered files remain on your device. If analytics or crash reporting are enabled, diagnostic data may be retained for a reasonable period to maintain and improve the App.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable, industry-standard safeguards to protect the App and any data processed for diagnostics. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

8. Children’s Privacy

The App is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can take appropriate action.

9. Your Choices

• Uninstall the App to stop all data collection
• Revoke permissions in device settings
• Reset/limit Android Advertising ID in device settings (if ads are shown)

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page and the “Last Updated” date will be revised.
