# Privacy Policy for Junk Cleaner
**Application Name:** Junk Cleaner
**Android Package:** com.cerkimot.junkcleaner
**Developer/Publisher:** Cerkimot Enboopea
**Effective Date:** September 8, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Junk Cleaner (the “Application,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use our Android application, identified by the package name com.cerkimot.junkcleaner. The Application is developed and published by Cerkimot Enboopea. This policy also describes the controls and privacy rights that may be available to you.
By installing or using Junk Cleaner, you acknowledge the information-handling practices explained in this policy.
## 1. Scope of This Policy
This policy covers the Junk Cleaner Android application and privacy-related correspondence sent to our support email address.
External websites, applications, app stores, and other services linked from the Application are outside the scope of this policy. Those services are subject to their own privacy policies and terms.
## 2. Information the Application Handles
Junk Cleaner offers tools to review storage usage, find large or unnecessary files, organize media, identify duplicate or similar content, and search accessible storage for potentially recoverable files.
To deliver these features, the Application may access and process file or media information in storage locations made available to it by Android. Depending on the feature, this may include:
- Names of files and folders;
- File paths and storage locations;
- File sizes, formats, and content types;
- Creation or modification dates;
- Thumbnails of images or videos;
- Folder details and storage-usage data;
- Information indicating duplicate or similar content; and
- Photos, videos, audio, documents, and other files you select for inspection, management, cleanup, deletion, or attempted recovery.
This information is generally processed on your device. It enables the Application to present scan results, group files, estimate storage usage, suggest cleanup candidates, and carry out the actions you choose.
The Application may also store preferences locally, such as your selected language, onboarding progress, permission status, display options, notification preferences, and other interface settings. These settings help preserve your choices between sessions.
When you contact customer support, we may receive your email address, message, and any additional details you choose to share. We use that information only to address your inquiry and provide support.
An account is not required to use Junk Cleaner. Its core cleaning and file-management features do not intentionally ask you to provide sensitive identity information.
## 3. Permissions on Android
Junk Cleaner may ask for Android permissions needed to provide a feature you decide to use. The permissions available or required can vary with your Android version and device configuration, and may concern access to photos, videos, audio, folders, files, or device storage.
With the relevant access, the Application may:
- Scan files in locations it is permitted to access;
- Show media, documents, and other files for you to review;
- Locate large, duplicate, similar, residual, or unnecessary files;
- Measure and display storage usage;
- Look for files that may be recoverable; and
- Complete file-management, cleanup, deletion, or recovery operations following your selection or confirmation.
Internet access may be used to display this policy, open support resources or app-store listings, and access other online content available through the Application.
You can grant, change, or revoke permissions in Android settings. A feature that depends on a permission may be limited or unavailable if you decline or revoke that permission.
## 4. Processing on Your Device
The Application’s main scanning, storage-analysis, cleanup, media-grouping, duplicate-detection, and recovery-scanning features are designed to run locally on your device.
We do not send your personal photos, videos, audio recordings, documents, or other personal files to our servers to scan, clean, organize, manage, or recover them.
File deletion, cleanup, management, and recovery operations take place in response to your selections or confirmations, within the limits imposed by Android permissions and storage-access rules.
## 5. File Recovery Features
Recovery features may examine storage areas accessible to Junk Cleaner and show files that appear to be candidates for recovery.
Whether a file can be found or restored depends on factors such as the device model, Android version, file system, permissions granted, current storage condition, and whether the original data has been overwritten.
Junk Cleaner cannot promise that a specific deleted, removed, damaged, or missing file will be discovered or successfully recovered.
## 6. Why We Process Information
Where a legal basis is required, processing may rely on one or more of the following grounds:
- Your consent, including permission you grant through Android;
- Providing functions you request, such as scanning, reviewing, cleaning, managing, deleting, or attempting to recover files;
- Our legitimate interests in keeping the Application functional and secure, preventing misuse, improving the experience, and handling support inquiries; or
- Meeting applicable legal obligations.
## 7. When Information May Be Shared
We do not sell your personal information.
Limited information may be shared when necessary:
- With an email or communications provider to receive and answer a support inquiry;
- To comply with a law, regulation, court order, legal proceeding, or valid government request; or
- To protect the safety, security, rights, or integrity of users, the Application, Cerkimot Enboopea, or the public.
We do not provide third parties with your personal photos, videos, audio recordings, documents, or other locally stored files for the Application’s cleaning, file-management, or recovery features.
## 8. Storage Duration and Your Control
Locally saved preferences may remain on your device until you reset the Application, clear its data, or uninstall it.
File metadata, thumbnails, scan findings, cleanup recommendations, and recovery results may be temporary. Depending on the feature, they may instead remain locally until the Application closes, its data is cleared, or it is uninstalled.
You decide which files to review, clean, delete, manage, or attempt to recover.
Support correspondence may be kept for as long as reasonably needed to resolve your inquiry, maintain appropriate support records, fulfill legal duties, or protect legitimate interests.
## 9. Protecting Information
We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to safeguard information handled through Junk Cleaner.
No electronic storage, processing, or transmission method is completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute information security. You are responsible for maintaining suitable security protections on your device.
## 10. Processing in Other Countries
If a support or technical-service provider operates outside your country or region, limited information connected with that service may be processed there.
When applicable law requires it, we take reasonable steps intended to ensure an appropriate level of protection for that information.
## 11. Privacy of Children
Junk Cleaner is not intended for or directed at children younger than 13, or below the minimum age specified by the law applicable in their location.
We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information. If you believe a child has shared personal information with us, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate steps.
## 12. Privacy Rights and Available Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to your personal information, correction of inaccurate details, deletion of information, restrictions on certain processing, or to object to certain processing activities.
You can withdraw permission consent through Android settings at any time. Locally stored files and preferences can be managed or removed, as appropriate, using the Application, your device’s file-management tools, Android settings, or by uninstalling the Application.
For privacy requests relating to information you have shared with customer support, write to the email address listed below. We may ask for information reasonably needed to verify and fulfill your request.
## 13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in the Application’s features, our information-handling practices, or legal requirements. When we revise it, we will update the Effective Date at the top of this page.
Please review this policy periodically to stay informed about how Junk Cleaner handles information.
