Thank you for using Amharic Keyboard (“we”, “us”, or “our”). Your privacy is very important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use our Android keyboard app (the “App”).
By installing or using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.
We do not collect or store your keystrokes or the content you type (i.e. your messages, passwords, or any text you input) on our servers.
We do not collect personal identifiers (such as name, email address) unless you voluntarily provide them (for example, via feedback or support).
We do not transmit your typed content over the internet.
a) Device & Usage Information
To operate and improve the App, we may collect non-personal device data, such as:
Keyboard layout settings (e.g., whether user is using Amharic or English layout)
App version, device model, Android version
Performance metrics (crashes, errors)
This information is used to diagnose issues, improve features, and monitor app stability.
b) Permissions
At the moment, we request ADS and INTERNET permission, which is used to load advertisements and In App Purchases. In future updates, we plan to introduce Ads and In-App Purchase features that will rely on these permissions.
Our app may use third-party services that collect information used to identify you. These include but are not limited to:
Google AdMob (Ads & Monetization): policies.google.com/technologies/ads
Firebase Analytics & Crashlytics: firebase.google.com/support/privacy
Google Play Billing: policies.google.com/privacy
We encourage you to review these privacy policies for further details.
The data we collect (non-personal & device information) is stored locally or in analytics services with industry-standard security measures.
We keep the data only as long as needed for the purpose for which it was collected (e.g. crash logs for debugging). After that, data is anonymized or deleted.
We implement reasonable security measures (encryption, access controls) to protect any data from unauthorized access.
Our App is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect or solicit any personal information from children under 13. If you believe we inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will delete the data.
As mentioned earlier, the app currently requests limited permissions for its functionality. In future updates, we may request additional permissions to support new features. You can choose not to grant permissions if you do not wish to use those features — the core keyboard functionality will continue to work without them.
You can request deletion of your data or ask what data we hold about you by contacting us (see “Contact Us” below).
We may update or modify this Privacy Policy occasionally. When we do, we will update the “Effective Date” and notify you via the App or other means.
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the Effective Date at the top and, where appropriate, notify users through the App . Your continued use of the App after the changes signify your acceptance of the revised policy.
If you have questions, concerns, or requests about this Privacy Policy or your data, you can reach us at:
