Last, update 20-May-2025
This privacy policy applies to the apps (hereby referred to as "Application") for mobile devices that was created by Apps Creed.Tech (hereby referred to as "Service Provider") as a Free service. This service is intended for use "AS IS".
Information Collection and Use
We collect two types of information:
Personal Information
We do not collect personal information such as your name, email, phone number, or contacts unless you explicitly provide it (e.g., for customer support or enabling location services).
Non-Personal Information
We may collect:
Device information (model, OS, device ID/advertising ID)
Installed apps data (for fraud prevention, personalization, security)
App activity (features used, crash logs, performance data)
Approximate or precise location (only with your consent)
This data is never sold. It may be shared only with trusted third-party providers (Google Play Services, Firebase, AdMob) for analytics, security, and advertising.
The Application collects information when you download and use it. This information may include information such as
Your device's Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address)
The pages of the Application that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages
The time spent on the Application
The operating system you use on your mobile device
The Application does not gather precise information about the location of your mobile device.
We collect installed app information only for legitimate purposes such as app functionality, personalization, and fraud prevention. This data is processed securely, used only within the scope of the services provided, and is never sold to third parties.
The Service Provider may use the information you provided to contact you from time to time to provide you with important information, required notices and marketing promotions.
For a better experience, while using the Application, the Service Provider may require you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information. The information that the Service Provider requests will be retained by them and used as described in this privacy policy.
Precise Location Collection
We collect Precise Location data to enhance the accuracy of location-based services. This data is only collected when the app is actively in use and with your explicit consent. You can revoke permission to collect location data by changing the settings on your device. We do not store or share precise location data unless required to provide certain services.
Approximate Location Collection
We collect Approximate Location data for location-based services. This data is only collected when the app is actively in use and with your explicit consent. You can revoke permission to collect location data by changing the settings on your device. We do not store or share precise location data unless required to provide certain services.
Sensitive Personal Information Collection
We may collect Sensitive Personal Information (SPI) in connection. This may include information such as geolocation data or information related to your personal travel history. We handle this data with the utmost care, ensuring that it is processed securely and in compliance with applicable laws. You have the right to access, correct, and delete this information at any time by contacting us.
Access to Photos and Videos (via Picker)
Our application allows users to lock or hide their personal photos and videos. To respect your privacy, we do not request broad storage permissions. Instead, we use the system file picker (Storage Access Framework / Media Picker API), which only provides access to the specific files you select.
We cannot access any other files on your device without your explicit action.
All locked files remain stored locally on your device; we do not upload or back up these files to any server.
Important: If you uninstall the app or clear its data, all locked files will be permanently lost. To avoid this, please unlock or unhide your files before uninstalling or clearing app data, so they can be restored to your Gallery folder.
Clarification on Data Collection Practices
Your app shares limited data such as app activity and device identifiers to improve user experience, security, and analytics. This data is not sold and is shared only with trusted third-party service providers for app optimization, security, and advertising purposes. Any data sharing is compliant with applicable laws such as GDPR and CCPA, and users can opt out of certain types of data sharing, like targeted advertising.
To resolve this conflict, your privacy policy should explicitly mention the collection and sharing of App Activity and Device IDs, ensuring that the information aligns with what is disclosed on the Play Store. Additionally, you should clarify how users can manage their data preferences, including opting out of data sharing for marketing or analytics purposes.
Third-Party Access:
Only aggregated, anonymized data is periodically transmitted to external services to aid the Service Provider in improving the Application and their service. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties in the ways that are described in this privacy statement.
Please note that the Application utilizes third-party services that have their own Privacy Policy about handling data. Below are the links to the Privacy Policy of the third-party service providers used by the Application:
