📄 Privacy Policy for CliBuddy

Effective Date: July 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to CliBuddy. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our mobile application handles information and ensures a secure experience for developers and users.

2. Data Sovereignty and Privacy

CliBuddy is built with a "Local-First" philosophy. We believe that your data belongs entirely to you.

• No Personal Data Collection: We do not collect, store, or transmit any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, IP address, or location. No account registration is required to use the app.

• Local Storage Only: All user-generated data (specifically your list of "Favorite" commands and app settings) is stored exclusively on your device's internal secure storage. We have zero access to this data, and it is never uploaded to any external servers or cloud services.

3. Required Permissions

To provide its core functionality, CliBuddy requires the following minimal device permissions:

Permission

Purpose

Clipboard Access

Allows you to copy commands directly to your system clipboard so you can paste them into your terminal or editor.

Internal Storage

Used strictly to persist your saved favorites and settings locally on your device.

4. Third-Party Services

CliBuddy is a clean, utility-focused application.

• No Analytics: We do not use third-party tracking or analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Firebase Analytics, Mixpanel) to monitor your usage.

• No Advertisements: There are no third-party ads, SDKs, or data brokers integrated into the app.

5. Data Security

Since all your data remains strictly on your physical device, its security is tied directly to your device's safety. We recommend using standard Android security practices—such as device passcodes, biometric authentication, and full-disk encryption—to secure your device.

6. Transparency

CliBuddy is built using transparent development practices. There are no hidden background processes, telemetry, or data-collection mechanisms.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in the application or legal requirements. Any significant updates will be communicated through an in-app notification.
