Gleam Launcher ("the App", "we", "us") is a home-screen launcher developed by DataMirra. This Privacy Policy explains what information the App accesses, how it is used, and the choices you have. We do not
operate any server. The App has no user account, and we do not collect, store, or transmit your personal data to us.
1. Information the App Accesses
All processing described below happens on your device only, unless explicitly stated otherwise (see Section 2, "Advertising").
- List of installed apps (QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES) — The App reads the list of apps installed on your device so it can display, search, organize, and launch them. This is the core function of a launcher. This
information never leaves your device.
- App usage statistics (PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS) — The App accesses basic usage data to show your "Recently used" apps. This information never leaves your device.
- App uninstall (REQUEST_DELETE_PACKAGES) — When you long-press a third-party app and choose to remove it, the App opens Android's standard system uninstall dialog. No data is collected.
- Internet / Network (INTERNET) — The App uses a network connection to load advertisements (see Section 2). This is the only feature that sends data off your device.
- Vibration (VIBRATE) — The App uses vibration to provide haptic feedback for interactions and the built-in mini-game. No data leaves your device.
- Expand status bar (EXPAND_STATUS_BAR) — The App uses this only to support the optional "swipe down to open notifications" gesture. No data leaves your device.
The App does not request or access your location, contacts, notifications, camera, microphone, files/photos, SMS, or call logs.
2. Advertising
The App displays advertising through Google AdMob (a Google service). To serve ads, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect and process certain information, such as your device's advertising identifier
(Advertising ID), IP address, and general device information. This data is handled by Google in accordance with its own policies.

- How Google uses information from apps that use its services: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Consent (GDPR/UMP): In regions where required (e.g., the European Economic Area and the UK), the App uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to request your consent before serving personalized ads. You
can change your choice at any time.
3. Data Sharing and Sale
We do not sell your data. We do not share your data with third parties, except for the information processed by Google AdMob, as described in Section 2, for the purpose of serving ads.
4. Data Retention
Because the App has no server, your settings (such as layout, hidden apps, and folders) are stored locally on your device using Android's standard app storage. This data is removed when you uninstall the
App.
5. Children's Privacy
The App is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from
children.
6. Your Choices and Controls
- Permissions — You may grant or revoke any permission at any time in Android Settings → Apps → Gleam Launcher → Permissions. Revoking a permission disables the related feature but does not otherwise affect
the App.
- Ad personalization — Can be reset via Android Settings → Privacy → Ads, and, where applicable, changed through the in-app consent prompt.
- Delete data — Uninstalling the App removes all locally stored data.
7. Security
Because your data stays on your device and we run no server, there is no central database of user information that could be breached. We rely on Android's standard app sandboxing to protect locally stored
settings.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
