This Privacy Policy ("Policy") is issued by KIENMALY MOBI ("we," "us," or "our"). It governs the data practices for our mobile application, ReTore (the "App"), and all related services (the "Services").

2. OUR PRIVACY COMMITMENT
Your privacy is paramount. Our approach is founded on the core principle that your personal files and data should never leave your device.
- On-Device Processing: Most app operations, including file scanning, recovery, and file locking, are performed 100% locally on your device.
- No Collection of Personal Files: We state unequivocally that ReTore does not collect, store, upload, or share any of your personal files for any purpose. Your data remains private and under your control.
- Data Minimization: We are committed to collecting only the absolute minimum data necessary for the App to function and improve, primarily for technical support and advertising purposes. We never access the content of your files for any other reason.
- Transparency: We are committed to being open and clear about how our App works and why it requires certain permissions and processes to perform its functions.
3. DATA WE COLLECT AND PROCESS
To provide and improve our Services, we collect a limited amount of technical data.
a. Data We DO NOT Collect

- Any photos, videos, audio files, or documents on your device (whether deleted or active).

6. APPLICATION PERMISSIONS AND THEIR PURPOSES
Our App requests only the minimum permissions necessary to provide its features. This section explains exactly which permissions the App may request and why we need them.
1. android.permission.INTERNET: To connect to the internet. This is essential for displaying advertisements that support our free App and to check for app updates.
2. android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows the app to scan your device's storage to find deleted files.
3. android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows the app to save your recovered files directly back to your device’s gallery or chosen location.
4. android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: (For Core Functionality) To perform a deep and thorough scan of recoverable files across all folders, ReTore requires the "All Files Access" permission. This permission is used for data recovery features exclusively and is essential for the app to locate and recover your lost files effectively.
5. com.android.vending.BILLING: Enables in-app billing for purchasing items within the app.
6. com.recover.photos.files.recoveryapp.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION: Default app permission to ensure secure communication within the app's components.
7. android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS: To send you occasional notifications to let you know when a recovery or scan is complete. This permission is optional.
8. android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: To check if your device is connected to the internet before trying to display advertisements.
7. DATA SECURITY AND RETENTION
- Security: As all your personal files are processed on your device, you are in control of their security. For files placed in our Secure File Locker, they are encrypted and protected by the password you set. We implement appropriate technical measures to protect the anonymous Technical & Usage Data we collect.
- Retention:
- User-Provided Content (Images & Files): This data is never retained on our servers. It is processed and stored only on your local device.
- Technical & Usage Data: This anonymous data is typically retained for a limited period necessary for analytics and advertising purposes, after which it is deleted or anonymized.
8. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
Your anonymous Technical & Usage Data may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in jurisdictions outside your country of residence (such as the United States), where our third-party analytics and advertising partners operate.
9. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS AND CHOICES
You have rights concerning your Personal Data, subject to limitations provided by law.
- Opt-Out of Personalized Advertising: You can limit ad tracking by resetting your device's advertising identifier through your device settings (e.g., On Android: Settings > Privacy > Ads).
- Formal Rights Requests: Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to Access, Rectify, or Erase the Personal Data we hold about you. Because we do not store your personal files, erasure requests will primarily apply to the Technical & Usage Data associated with you.
10. JURISDICTION-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS
- For Residents of the European Economic Area (EEA), UK, and Switzerland (under GDPR): You have the rights detailed in Section 10, as well as the right to data portability and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
- For Residents of California (under CCPA/CPRA): You have the right to know what personal information is collected and to delete it. Our use of third-party advertising SDKs may be considered "sharing." You can exercise your right to opt-out by managing your device's advertising ID.
11. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
These Services are not directed to anyone under the age of 13 (or 16 in the EEA/UK). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children.
12. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice through the App or by other means to allow you to review the changes before they become effective.
