Privacy Policy — QuickPeek

Last Updated: April 9, 2026

App Name: QuickPeek

Package: com.quickpeek.widgets

Overview

QuickPeek is a home screen widget application for Android. We are deeply committed to your privacy. QuickPeek does not collect, store, or share any personal data on external servers. All data used by the app stays entirely on your device.

1. Information We Access (and Why)

1.1 Location (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION)

• Purpose: To display current weather conditions and temperature on weather widgets.

• How it works: Your approximate GPS coordinates are sent only to OpenWeatherMap (a third-party weather API) to retrieve weather data. Your location is not stored on any server we control.

• Stored locally: The city/location name you choose is saved in your device's SharedPreferences only.

• You can opt out: If you do not configure a location, weather features will show -- and no location data is ever read.

1.2 Calendar (READ_CALENDAR)

• Purpose: To display upcoming calendar events in applicable widgets (Widget 9, Widget 12).

• How it works: The app reads your local calendar events using Android's CalendarContract API.

• No data leaves your device. Calendar data is read at widget refresh time and displayed directly. Nothing is stored except what Android already stores.

1.3 Physical Activity / Step Count (ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION)

• Purpose: To display your daily step count on widgets that support the step counter feature (Widget 8, Widget 12).

• How it works: The app's StepTrackerService reads step sensor data using Android's TYPE_STEP_COUNTER hardware sensor.

• Stored locally: Only today's step count is saved in SharedPreferences on your device. Steps are reset at midnight. Nothing is shared externally.

1.6 Notification Access (BIND_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SERVICE)

• Purpose: To display currently playing music track title and artist in music widgets (Widget 7, Widget 9, Widget 12).

• How it works: The MediaNotificationService listens to media-type notifications to extract track name, artist name, album art, and the source app's package name.

• Stored locally: Track info and album art are temporarily saved to your device's internal files directory (filesDir) so the widget can display them even between notification updates. This data never leaves your device.

• No other notifications are read — the service only processes notifications flagged as media sessions.

1.7 Internet Access (INTERNET)

• Purpose: Exclusively used to fetch weather data from OpenWeatherMap API.

• What is sent: Your latitude and longitude (from your chosen location), plus a unit preference (Celsius/Fahrenheit).

• What is received: Temperature, weather condition, weather icon code, sunrise/sunset times.

• No other network requests are made by QuickPeek.

1.8 Wallpaper (SET_WALLPAPER)

• Purpose: The app includes a wallpaper preview and setting feature.

• How it works: Wallpapers are selected from within the app and applied using Android's WallpaperManager. No wallpaper image is uploaded or shared externally.

1.9 Boot Completed (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED)

• Purpose: To automatically restart widgets and the step counter service after device reboot, so your widgets remain functional without re-opening the app.

2. Data We Do NOT Collect

QuickPeek does not collect, transmit, or store any of the following:

• ❌ Personal identity information (name, email, phone number)

• ❌ Device identifiers (IMEI, advertising ID)

• ❌ Contacts or messages

• ❌ Photos, files, or media from your storage

• ❌ Precise GPS coordinates on any server

• ❌ Usage analytics or crash reporting (no analytics SDK is used)

• ❌ Any data in a remote database

3. Third-Party Services

4. Data Storage

All data QuickPeek saves is stored locally on your device using:

• SharedPreferences — widget settings, cached weather data, location name, step count, time format preferences, theme settings

• Internal Files (filesDir) — temporary album art image and app icon image for music widgets

This data is accessible only by QuickPeek and is cleared when you uninstall the app.
