PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: August 27, 2026
The "AppLock - Fingerprint & PIN" application ("App"), developed by "Nigeriacamera" ("Company", "we", "us", or "our"), is committed to protecting your privacy.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use our Services, including:
Downloading and using our mobile application, AppLock - Fingerprint & PIN.
Locking and protecting selected applications using a PIN or fingerprint authentication.
Selecting applications that you want to protect with AppLock.
Configuring app lock settings, security preferences, and available protection options.
Using device security features required to provide app-locking functionality.
Contacting us for support, feedback, or inquiries.
By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We may collect:
Email address, if you voluntarily contact us for support, feedback, or inquiries.
We do not require users to create an account to use the core app-locking features of the App.
The App may process information necessary to provide app-locking functionality, including:
The applications you select to protect.
App lock preferences and security settings.
Authentication settings, such as whether PIN or fingerprint authentication is enabled.
Information required to determine when a protected application is opened.
Security-related events necessary to provide the App's protection features.
App lock configuration and related security information are primarily processed locally on your device when possible.
Your PIN is used to authenticate access to protected applications. We do not intentionally collect or transmit your PIN to our servers.
If you choose to use fingerprint authentication, the App may use your device's biometric authentication system.
The App does not receive or store your actual fingerprint image or biometric template. Fingerprint verification is performed by the device's operating system or secure biometric hardware, and the App receives only the authentication result required to determine whether access should be granted.
To provide app-locking functionality, the App may process information about applications installed on your device and/or information necessary to determine which application is currently in use.
This information may be used to:
Display applications that you can choose to lock.
Allow you to select applications that you want to protect.
Detect when a protected application is opened.
Display the AppLock authentication screen when required.
Maintain the protection functionality requested by you.
This information is used to provide the core app-locking functionality and is not intentionally used to identify you personally.
We do not intentionally sell or share your installed application information for advertising purposes.
We may automatically collect certain information, including:
IP address.
Device model and manufacturer.
Operating system version.
App version.
Advertising identifiers, such as Google Advertising ID.

The App may request certain Android permissions or special access depending on the features available in the App.
If required, the App may request Usage Access permission to determine when applications are opened so that the App can display the lock screen for applications you have selected to protect.
This access is used to provide the core app-locking functionality.
The App does not intentionally use Usage Access information to read the contents of your protected applications.
If required, the App may request permission to display the AppLock authentication interface over other applications.
This permission is used to display the lock screen when you open an application that you have selected to protect.
The App does not intentionally use this permission to display unrelated content or advertisements outside the App's expected functionality.
The App may use Android biometric authentication when you choose fingerprint unlocking.
Biometric authentication is handled by your device's operating system or secure biometric hardware. The App does not intentionally access, collect, or store your fingerprint image or biometric template.
The App receives the authentication result from the device's biometric system and uses that result only to determine whether access to a protected application should be allowed.
The App may request notification permission when notifications are required for security reminders, app status, or other available features.
You can manage or revoke applicable permissions through your device settings, subject to operating system limitations.
App lock settings, selected applications, authentication preferences, and other security-related configuration are generally processed and stored locally on your device when necessary to provide the App's functionality.
Your PIN and app-lock configuration are not intentionally uploaded to our servers.
Biometric authentication is handled by your device's operating system or secure hardware. The App does not intentionally collect or store your fingerprint data.
If the App supports cloud-based features or another feature that requires transmitting user information, such information will be processed only as necessary to provide that feature.
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:
Provide our services.
Maintain and improve the App.
Fulfill legal obligations.
Resolve disputes.
Enforce our agreements.
Prevent fraud and abuse.
App lock settings and preferences stored locally on your device remain there until you delete them, clear the App's data, or remove the App, subject to your device's operating system behavior.
If information is processed by third-party analytics, advertising, or crash reporting providers, retention may be subject to their respective policies.
Information no longer required for our services may be securely deleted or anonymized.
Depending on your location and applicable laws, you may have the right to:
Access your personal information.
Correct inaccurate information.
Request deletion of your information.
Restrict or object to certain processing activities.
Request a copy of your information.
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
To exercise any applicable privacy rights, please contact us using the email address listed below.
We implement reasonable security measures designed to protect your information and app-lock settings.
The App is designed to keep security-related configuration on your device whenever possible.
However, no system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We encourage users to keep their device's operating system updated, use a secure device PIN or password, and take appropriate precautions to protect their device.
The App is not intended for children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that personal information from a child under 13 has been collected, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
If applicable laws in your jurisdiction establish a different minimum age for consent to data processing, those requirements will apply.
AppLock - Fingerprint & PIN is designed to provide an additional layer of protection for applications on your device.
The App does not replace the security features provided by your device's operating system, device lock, encryption, or other system-level security mechanisms.
App-lock protection may depend on Android operating system behavior, device configuration, manufacturer-specific restrictions, background process limitations, battery optimization, and other system conditions.
We cannot guarantee that the App will prevent every unauthorized access attempt or protect against all security threats.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device, keeping your PIN confidential, and enabling appropriate device-level security features.
The App may use or integrate with third-party services, including advertising, analytics, crash reporting, and other technical services.
Third-party services may have their own privacy policies, terms of use, and data processing practices.
We encourage users to review the privacy policies of third-party providers before using services that rely on those providers.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or availability of third-party services that we do not control.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.
Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the App after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
