PRIVACY POLICY FOR BLOCKBOX
Effective date: June 10, 2026
Last updated: June 10, 2026
SUMMARY
BlockBox is a browser for community-made addons for Bedrock Edition.
We do not require sign-in, do not collect personal information,
and do not sell any data to anyone.
NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT PRODUCT. NOT APPROVED BY OR ASSOCIATED
WITH MOJANG OR MICROSOFT.
1. WHAT WE COLLECT
Anonymous usage signals only. When you open BlockBox and tap on
addons, our analytics records anonymous events such as "category
opened" or "addon downloaded" so we can understand which content
is popular and keep the catalog fresh. These events do not include
your name, email, phone number, address, location, contacts, or
any other personal identifier.
We do not collect:
• Your name, email or phone
• Your location
• Your contacts, photos, calendar or files
• The contents of addons you have installed on your device
• Any data from outside our app
2. HOW YOUR DATA IS STORED
The addon files you download are saved by Android's standard system
Download Manager into your device's Downloads folder. We do not have
remote access to these files. Removing them is up to you (use your
file manager, or clear the Downloads folder).
3. PERMISSIONS USED
• INTERNET — required to fetch the addon catalog from our server
and to download the addon files you choose
• ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE — required to detect when your device is
online and behave accordingly
We do not request location, camera, microphone, contacts, storage
read/write, calendar, or any other runtime permission.
4. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
• Firebase Analytics — anonymous event reporting (no user
identifiers). You may disable analytics in the app settings
at any time.
• Firebase Crashlytics — collects anonymous crash reports so we
can fix bugs. Crash reports contain stack traces only, no
personal information.
• Google AdMob — serves ads to keep the app free. AdMob may
use Android Advertising ID for ad personalization. You can
reset or disable the Advertising ID in your Android system
settings (Settings → Google → Ads).
These services are provided by Google. By using BlockBox you also
agree to Google's privacy policies for the services above.
5. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
BlockBox is suitable for general audiences. We do not knowingly
collect personal information from children under 13. The app does
not include behavioural advertising targeted at children.
6. DATA SHARING AND SELLING
We do not share, sell, rent, trade, or transfer personal data to
third parties beyond the analytics / crash-reporting / advertising
services listed in section 4. We do not sell data, ever.
7. DATA RETENTION AND DELETION
Anonymous analytics events are retained for up to 14 months in
Firebase. Crash reports are retained for up to 90 days. You may
clear app data via Android system settings to reset any local
preferences, or uninstall BlockBox to stop all data collection.
8. INTERNATIONAL USERS
Analytics and crash reports are processed on Google's infrastructure
in the European Union and the United States. By using BlockBox you
agree to this cross-border processing.
9. YOUR RIGHTS
Under GDPR, CCPA and similar laws, you have the right to access,
correct, or erase any personal data we may hold about you. Because
we do not collect personal identifiers, there is in practice no
personal data to access or erase. If you have a specific concern,
contact us at the email below.
10. SECURITY
Network requests between the app and our server use HTTPS. The
catalog API is gated by an API key embedded in the app to prevent
casual scraping. The Android application sandbox isolates BlockBox
data from other apps on your device.
11. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make
material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the
top of this document and announce the change in the release notes
of a future app update.
