We (Photo Recovery & File Restore) value your privacy. This Privacy Policy is designed to inform you about how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information when you use our services. If you do not agree with any part of this Privacy Policy, please do not use our services. By installing and using our application, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in this policy.
To provide a better experience, we may ask you to provide certain personal information while using our services. This information will be stored on your device and will not be directly collected by us. We use this information to provide and improve our services.

All file operations are performed locally on your device, and we do not transfer any of your files to external servers without your explicit consent.
- Contacts:
- Permissions Involved: android.permission.READ_CONTACTS, android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS.
- Purpose: These permissions are required if your app offers features like "recovering deleted contacts" or allowing you to save recovered contacts back to your device.

- Internet and Network State:
- Permissions Involved: android.permission.INTERNET, android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE.

- Purpose: We use these permissions and related services to provide personalized advertisements, measure ad effectiveness, and for analytics purposes to understand how users interact with our ads. This data may be collected by third-party advertising and analytics service providers.
Our application may also use third-party services that may collect your information to identify you. These third-party services include, but are not limited to:
Please Note: If you grant the android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission, we use this permission for the app's core functionality – file recovery – allowing us to access and manage all files on your device. We commit to using this permission only when you explicitly initiate a recovery or management function, and we will not upload your files to external servers.
Whenever you use our services, if an error occurs, we may collect information called "Log Data" through third-party tools. This log data may include your device’s IP address, device name, operating system version, application configuration, the time and date of using the service, and other statistical data. This data is used to diagnose and improve app performance.
Cookies are commonly used anonymous identifiers that are usually stored in your device’s memory. When you visit a website, the website sends these small data files to your browser, which stores them on your device. Our service does not use these cookies directly, but third-party code and libraries integrated into our service may use cookies to collect information to improve their services. You can choose to accept or reject these cookies, and you will be prompted when cookies are being sent. If you reject cookies, some features of our services may not be available to you.
We may employ third-party companies and individuals to assist with the following tasks:
- Facilitating our services
- Providing services on our behalf
- Performing related services
- Assisting us in analyzing how our services are used
We inform users that these third parties have access to your personal information solely to perform the tasks assigned to them. They are obligated not to disclose or use this information for any other purposes.
We will not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any unauthorized third parties, except in the following circumstances:
- With your explicit consent.
- To comply with legal obligations or protect our legitimate interests.

We are committed to using industry-standard encryption and security measures to protect your personal information and recovered data. All file recovery operations and data transfers are conducted through encrypted channels to ensure data security. However, please note that no method of data transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee 100% security of data transfers.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We recommend that you review this page regularly for any changes. If any changes are made to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by posting the updated policy on this page.
