---
## 2. Information We Handle
The type of information handled by Download Drive depends on the features you choose to use.
### 2.1 Files and Media
When you download, open, move, share, delete, or protect media using Download Drive, the App may access files and media stored on your device as necessary to provide those features.
This may include:
* Downloaded video files
* File names
* File locations
* File sizes
* Media metadata
* Storage locations
* Files selected by you
These files are primarily processed locally on your device.
We do not intentionally upload your downloaded personal media to our own servers unless a feature clearly informs you otherwise before such transmission occurs.
### 2.2 Private Locker Data
Download Drive may allow you to move selected media into a private locker protected by a PIN.
Private Locker information may include:
* Files selected for protection
* Locally stored locker information
* Local security settings
* PIN-related configuration
The purpose of this feature is to prevent ordinary access to selected media through the App and/or normal public media locations.
Your Private Locker PIN and protected files are intended to remain on your device.
We do not intentionally transmit your PIN to our own servers.
You are responsible for remembering your PIN and maintaining control of your device.
No security mechanism can guarantee absolute protection against unauthorized access, device compromise, malware, rooting, physical access, operating system vulnerabilities, or other security threats.

## 3. Built-In Browser and Web Activity
Download Drive may contain a built-in web browser that allows you to access third-party websites.
Depending on how you use the browser, the App or Android WebView may locally process information such as:
* URLs you visit
* Browser history
* Search or address-bar entries
* Cookies
* Cache
* Website preferences
* Bookmarks
* Open browser tabs
* Download links
Where supported by the App, you may be able to clear browser history, cache, cookies, and other browsing information from the App's settings.
We do not intentionally transmit your complete browser history to our own servers.
However, websites you visit through the built-in browser operate independently from Download Drive.
When you access a third-party website, that website may automatically receive information such as:
* Your IP address
* Browser or WebView information
* Device information
* Cookies
* Website interactions
* Information you voluntarily provide to that website
Third-party websites are responsible for their own privacy practices.
Download Drive does not control how external websites collect, use, store, or share your information.
You should review the privacy policy of any third-party website you access.
---
## 4. Downloaded Content
Download Drive processes URLs and other information necessary to perform user-requested download functions.
Downloaded media is generally stored in a location selected by you or designated by the App on your device.
Depending on Android version, device configuration, and your selected settings, media may be saved to:
* Device storage
* App-specific storage
* Downloads folder
* Media collection
* Supported external or SD card storage
Download Drive does not claim ownership of content downloaded by users.
Users are solely responsible for ensuring that they have the lawful right to access and download any content.

## 5. Advertising
The free version of Download Drive may display advertisements.
We may use **Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK** to provide advertisements.
Advertising services may automatically collect or process certain information, depending on your device, location, privacy choices, consent status, and applicable law.
This information may include:
* Advertising identifiers
* App instance or publisher identifiers
* IP address
* Approximate location derived from IP address
* Device type
* Operating system information
* Language
* Advertising interactions
* Ad impressions
* Diagnostic information
* App activity related to advertising
* Fraud-prevention and security signals
Google and its advertising partners may use information for purposes such as:
* Delivering advertisements
* Measuring ad performance
* Frequency capping
* Detecting fraud or invalid traffic
* Providing personalized advertisements where legally permitted and consented to
* Providing non-personalized advertisements where applicable
Advertising practices are subject to Google's own terms, privacy policies, consent mechanisms, and advertising controls.
---
## 6. Personalized and Non-Personalized Advertising
Where required by applicable law, users may be shown a consent or privacy message relating to advertising.
Depending on your choices and region, advertisements may be personalized or non-personalized.
Non-personalized advertising may still use certain information for purposes such as:
* Contextual advertising
* Fraud prevention
* Frequency capping
* Aggregated reporting
* Security
* Approximate geographic targeting
Removing advertisements through a Premium purchase does not necessarily delete information previously processed by third-party advertising providers according to their respective retention policies.

## 7. In-App Purchases
Download Drive may offer an optional one-time purchase, such as **Remove Ads Forever**.
Purchases are processed through the **Google Play Billing system**.

We do not receive or store your complete:

Google Play purchase entitlement may remain associated with the Google account used to complete the purchase and may be restored when supported.

Third-party services used by the App may nevertheless process device, advertising, transactional, technical, or network information as described in this Privacy Policy.

We do not intentionally sell your Private Locker PIN.
Information may nevertheless be processed or shared in the following circumstances:
### Service Providers
Information may be processed by third-party services necessary to provide advertising, billing, website access, security, or other App functionality.
### User-Requested Actions
If you choose to share a downloaded file using Android's sharing tools, the file will be provided to the app or recipient that you select.
### Legal Requirements
Information may be disclosed where required by applicable law, legal process, court order, regulatory request, or to protect rights, users, security, or prevent unlawful activity.

## 14. Data Retention
Locally stored information generally remains on your device until:
* You delete it
* You clear App data
* You clear browser information
* You remove downloaded content
* You uninstall the App
* Android removes application data
Files placed in public or shared storage may remain after the App is uninstalled and must be deleted separately by the user.
Third-party services such as Google may retain information according to their own privacy policies and legal requirements.

You can control or remove locally stored information by:
* Deleting individual downloads
* Removing items from the Private Locker
* Clearing browser history
* Clearing cache and cookies where available
* Clearing App storage through Android Settings

You may also manage advertising privacy settings using your Android and Google account controls.

* Biometric protection
* Updated Android security patches
* Trusted applications
* Secure networks

Download Drive is not specifically designed or directed toward children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly request children under 13 to provide personal information directly to us.
