SpaceMate (“we”, “our”, or “the app”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how SpaceMate handles information when you use the application.
SpaceMate is designed primarily as a local storage management and file utility app. Most file analysis and cleanup operations are performed directly on your device.
1. Information SpaceMate may access
To provide its core features, SpaceMate may request access to files and media stored on your device.
Depending on your Android version and the features you use, this may include access to:
Photos
Videos
Audio files
Downloads
Documents
APK files
Folders and storage locations
File metadata such as file name, size, type, date, and path
This access is used only to provide features such as:
Storage analysis
Large file detection
Duplicate file detection
Automatic cleanup
Empty folder detection
Recycle Bin
File management
File compression
Document and PDF tools
App storage analysis
SpaceMate does not upload your personal files to our own servers for normal cleanup or storage analysis.
2. File deletion and Recycle Bin
When you choose to delete files, SpaceMate may move supported files to its local Recycle Bin before permanent deletion.
Files in the Recycle Bin remain on your device until you restore them or permanently delete them.
You are responsible for reviewing files before deletion. Some actions, such as “Delete Forever” or “Empty Bin”, may permanently remove files from your device.
3. Local processing
Many SpaceMate features are performed locally on your device, including:
File scanning
Duplicate detection
File size analysis
Storage categorization
Cleanup suggestions
PDF creation
Image processing
File compression
Your personal file contents are not intentionally transmitted to our servers as part of these local functions.
4. Advertising
SpaceMate uses Google AdMob to display advertisements.
Google and its advertising partners may collect or process certain information for advertising, fraud prevention, measurement, and personalization purposes.
This may include:
Device information
Advertising identifiers
IP address
Approximate location
App interaction data
Diagnostic information
Ad performance information
AdMob data handling is governed by Google’s privacy policies and advertising technologies.

5. Consent and European privacy regulations
SpaceMate uses Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) to manage consent where required, including for users in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, and Switzerland.
Where applicable, users may be given options to:
Consent to personalized advertising
Decline consent
Manage privacy choices
Users may also be able to review or change privacy choices from within the application where this option is available.
6. Advertising ID
SpaceMate may use the Android Advertising ID through Google Mobile Ads services.
The Advertising ID may be used for:
Ad delivery
Ad measurement
Fraud prevention
Frequency control
Personalized advertising, where permitted
Users can manage or reset their Advertising ID through Android device settings.
7. Permissions
SpaceMate may request Android permissions necessary for its functionality.
These may include permissions related to:
Photos
Videos
Audio
File and media access
All Files Access, where required for supported file-management and cleanup functionality
Usage Access, where required for app storage analysis
Permissions are requested only when required for relevant features.
You can revoke permissions at any time through your Android device settings. Some features may stop working if required permissions are disabled.
8. All Files Access
Certain SpaceMate features may require Android’s “All Files Access” permission.
This permission may be used for core file management and storage-cleaning functionality, including:
Finding large files
Detecting unused or empty files
Managing folders
File deletion
Recycle Bin operations
File organization
SpaceMate does not use this permission to access files for unrelated purposes.
9. App usage information
If you use the App Storage Analyzer, SpaceMate may request Android Usage Access.
This permission is used to display information such as application storage usage where supported by Android.
SpaceMate does not use Usage Access to read private content inside other apps.
10. Third-party services
SpaceMate may use third-party services including:
Google AdMob
Google User Messaging Platform (UMP)
Google Play services
These third parties may process data according to their own privacy policies.
We recommend reviewing Google’s Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy
11. Data sharing
SpaceMate does not sell your personal files or personal information.
Information may be processed by third-party advertising or platform providers where required to provide advertising, security, consent management, or platform functionality.
12. Data retention
SpaceMate does not maintain a separate cloud database of your personal files for normal app functionality.
Locally generated data, such as cleanup history or Recycle Bin records, may remain on your device until:
You delete it
You clear app data
You uninstall the application
Third-party services such as Google AdMob may retain data according to their own policies.
13. Security
We take reasonable measures to design SpaceMate so that sensitive file operations remain local where possible.
However, no application or device environment can guarantee absolute security.
14. Children’s privacy
SpaceMate is not specifically directed to children under the age required by applicable law to provide independent consent.
If required, advertising and privacy settings may be adjusted according to Google Play and AdMob policies.
15. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when:
Features change
Permissions change
Advertising services change
Legal or platform requirements change
The updated version will be published at this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
