Help you make informed decisions about applications that may be removed
The App cannot enable this access on your behalf. You must grant Usage Access through Android system settings.
REQUEST_DELETE_PACKAGES
This permission allows the App to request deletion of applications when you choose to uninstall an application through an available App feature.
Any application removal action is initiated by your choice and is subject to Android's system controls and confirmation requirements.
POST_NOTIFICATIONS
On Android versions that require notification permission, this permission allows the App to send notifications after you grant permission.
Notifications may be used for:
Cleaning or scanning progress
Completion notifications
Important app-related information

Identify unnecessary files
Find duplicate or large files
Display files that can be selected for cleaning
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
On supported older Android versions, this permission allows the App to write or modify files on shared/external storage when required by cleaning or file-management features.
MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
On Android 11 and later, this permission provides broad access to shared storage when the user grants the corresponding system access.
The App may use this access to:
Scan storage for files
Analyze storage usage
Find large, duplicate, temporary, or unnecessary files
Allow you to select files for deletion or cleaning
Perform storage-management operations requested by you
Storage access is used for the App's core storage-cleaning functionality. The App does not use access to your files to sell your personal information.
3. Storage Scanning and Cleaning
The App is designed to help you analyze and manage storage on your device.
During a scan, the App may examine file and folder metadata, including file names, locations, sizes, and types. Depending on the cleaning feature you select, the App may also access the contents of files necessary to identify duplicates or other files that can be safely reviewed.
The App provides information to help you decide what should be removed. You remain responsible for reviewing and confirming files before deletion.
Deleted files may not be recoverable depending on the Android device, file type, and deletion method.

If the App provides duplicate-file detection, it may process information about files to determine whether files are duplicates.
This may include:
File names
File sizes
File paths
File metadata
Technical file information
File content or calculated file fingerprints when required to identify duplicates
Where technically possible, this processing may be performed locally on your device.
5. Installed App Management
The App may display applications installed on your device to help you understand and manage storage usage.
If you choose to remove an application, the App may initiate an Android-supported uninstall request. Android may display system confirmation screens before an application is removed.
The App does not silently uninstall applications without your action.
6. Usage Access
Some storage-management features may use Android's Usage Access functionality.
If enabled, this can provide information about application usage, such as how recently an application was used or how long it has been used.
You can control this access through your Android device's settings. You may continue using other App features without enabling Usage Access, although features that depend on it may not function.

8. Personal Photos, Videos, and Files
The App may need access to files stored on your device to provide storage-scanning and cleaning features.
Your photos, videos, documents, and other personal files may be visible to the App when you grant the required storage permissions and use relevant features.
We do not intentionally sell your personal photos, videos, documents, or other personal files.
If a feature does not require uploading a file, the App is designed to process the relevant information locally on your device where technically feasible.
9. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information.
Information may be shared with third-party service providers only when necessary to provide services such as:
Advertising
Analytics
Crash reporting
Technical infrastructure
Security and fraud prevention
Third-party providers may independently process certain technical information according to their own privacy policies.
We do not intentionally provide advertising partners with the contents of your personal photos, videos, or documents merely because you granted storage access to the App.

Advertising providers may collect certain information automatically, such as:
Advertising identifiers
Device information

This information helps us identify technical problems and improve reliability.
12. Data Retention
The App may temporarily process file and device information while performing scanning, analysis, or cleaning operations.
Retention periods depend on the type of information and the purpose for which it is processed.
Information that is no longer required for the relevant purpose may be deleted or otherwise disposed of in accordance with applicable practices and legal requirements.
13. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information handled through the App.
However, no electronic storage system, transmission method, or application can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should also protect your device with appropriate security measures such as a screen lock, device encryption, and current Android security updates.

15. Children's Privacy
The App is not specifically directed toward children under the age required by applicable law.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children for purposes unrelated to providing the App's functionality.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us inappropriately, please contact us so that appropriate action can be taken.

Those third parties may process information according to their own privacy policies.
We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party services used within the App to understand how they handle information.
20. International Data Transfers
Where third-party service providers process information outside your country or region, information may be transferred and processed internationally.
Such processing is subject to the applicable privacy laws and safeguards required by the relevant jurisdiction.
