1. Introduction
Phone Cleaner: Smart Cleanup provides tools for reviewing unnecessary files, finding potential duplicate files, managing installed applications, monitoring available device information, and accessing supported battery, gaming, notification, and security-related utilities.
Certain features require access to files, application information, device settings, or other Android capabilities. This policy explains the purposes for which such access may be used and how information may be handled by the application and its supporting services.
2. Information We May Collect or Process
Depending on the features you use and the permissions you grant, the application may access or process the following categories of information:
- Images and videos available through the device's media access permissions.
- Supported files that you choose to scan for potential duplicates or unnecessary content.
- Information about installed applications and their available details.
- Application usage information needed for supported device-management features.
- Device, memory, CPU, battery, and other technical information where accessible through Android.
- Notification and device-setting information required for selected utility features.
- Technical diagnostics, application usage events, and crash information through integrated services.
- Advertising-related information processed by advertising services.
The information accessible to the application depends on your Android version, the permissions you grant, and the features you choose to use. We do not claim that every category listed above is collected or transmitted to our servers.
3. File Scanning, Cleaning, and Duplicate Detection
The cleaning and duplicate detection features help you review supported files and identify items that may be unnecessary or repeated. Depending on the feature, the application may access images, videos, and other supported files available on your device.
Scan results may include file names, file locations, file sizes, file types, or other information needed to display and compare detected items. You can review available results before choosing which files to delete.
File deletion is intended to follow your selection and confirmation through the available interface. The availability of file access and deletion depends on Android restrictions and the permissions granted.
The application may also identify supported APK files, downloaded files, large files, or other items for review where the relevant functionality and system access are available.
4. Permissions Used
The application uses the following Android permissions for its supported features. Certain permissions are limited to particular Android versions or require additional approval through device settings.
| Permission | Purpose |
|---|---|
| READ_MEDIA_IMAGES | Allows access to images for duplicate photo detection, image scanning, and related file-management features. |
| READ_MEDIA_VIDEO | Allows access to videos for duplicate video detection and supported video-file scanning. |
| READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE | On supported older Android versions, allows access to shared storage for file scanning and cleanup features. |

Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy policies and terms. We encourage users to review the relevant provider policies for further information about their data-handling practices.
6. App Management, Usage Information, and App Lock
The app manager may display information about installed applications, including application names, package-related details, and storage sizes where Android makes this information available.
Usage access may be required for features that depend on application usage information. Uninstall actions are subject to Android system restrictions and may require user confirmation.
The App Lock feature may use supported local authentication or pattern-based protection mechanisms to restrict access to selected applications. The precise behavior depends on the implementation, device, and permissions available.
App Lock should not be treated as a guarantee against all forms of unauthorized access, and its operation may be affected by Android restrictions or device-specific behavior.
7. Advertising and Analytics
Phone Cleaner: Smart Cleanup may display advertisements through Google Mobile Ads and integrated advertising-related modules.
Advertising services may process information such as advertising identifiers, device information, advertising interactions, and technical data needed to deliver, measure, or protect advertising services. Processing may depend on the user's settings, applicable consent choices, and the policies of the advertising provider.
Firebase Analytics may be used to understand application usage, while Firebase Crashlytics may process diagnostic information to help identify crashes and technical problems.
Firebase Cloud Messaging and Remote Config may support notifications and application configuration where those functions are used.
Where required by applicable law, consent mechanisms and available privacy controls will apply to relevant advertising and data-processing activities.
8. Notifications, Reminders, and Background Features
The application may provide cleaning reminders, memory notifications, battery-related alerts, charging completion notifications, temperature monitoring options, app-related notifications, or other supported alerts.
These features may use notifications, scheduled tasks, foreground operations, or startup-related behavior where implemented and permitted by Android.
You can manage notification permissions and relevant device settings. Disabling notifications or restricting background activity may prevent certain reminders or monitoring options from working as expected.
Any battery, temperature, memory, or performance information should be understood as device-dependent information rather than a guarantee of improved performance or protection.
9. Information Sharing
We do not sell personal information as part of the core file-cleaning functionality of the application.
Information may be processed by service providers when necessary to operate the application, including:
- Advertising providers that deliver and measure advertisements.
- Analytics and crash-reporting providers.
- Cloud messaging and configuration providers.
- Network and infrastructure providers used by supported online features.
Information may also be disclosed when required by law or legal process, or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, security, or integrity of the application, its users, or others.
We do not claim that file names, photos, videos, or other scanned content are uploaded to our servers unless a specific feature or service actually requires such processing.
10. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the application and its supporting services. These measures may include appropriate technical safeguards and the use of secure network connections where supported by the relevant service.
Access to files, application usage information, system settings, and other device capabilities is subject to Android's permission model and applicable system restrictions.
However, no electronic storage or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security for information processed through the application or third-party services.
11. Data Retention and User Control
Information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide application functionality, maintain services, troubleshoot technical problems, or meet applicable legal obligations.
Files identified by the cleaning and duplicate scanning features remain subject to the storage controls of your device. You should review scan results carefully before deleting any item.
Information handled by third-party services may be retained according to their own privacy policies and retention practices.
You can revoke permissions through Android settings, change available notification or special-access settings, and stop using individual features. Some functions may become unavailable when required access is withdrawn.
12. Children's Privacy
Phone Cleaner: Smart Cleanup is a general-purpose device utility application and is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children.
We do not knowingly request children to provide personal information for purposes unrelated to the application's functionality.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information in a manner that should not have occurred, please contact us at appteam.at.shreegebilalelectric@gmail.com so that the concern can be reviewed and appropriate action can be considered.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in application features, permissions, integrated services, legal requirements, or information-handling practices.
