SpeedLet never uploads your traffic statistics or speed test results. There are no accounts. The app shows ads from Google AdMob and uses Google's analytics and crash reports, and Google collects some data for them, as described under “Ads” and “Usage analytics and crash reports”. The rules for using SpeedLet and Pro are in the separate Terms of Use.

What the app reads, on your device only

• Network byte counters, used to calculate the current speed and keep SpeedLet's own daily totals.

• Device and per-app traffic statistics, only if you grant “Usage access”. They show traffic per day and per app. To show app names and icons, SpeedLet sees apps that have a home screen icon. It does not read their contents or which websites they open.

• Your settings and your last 100 speed test results, kept in the app's private storage.

• Network state: whether the phone is connected, over Wi-Fi or mobile data, and whether Android found that the network reaches the internet. While the status bar meter runs, SpeedLet uses it to log when the internet was unavailable (the start and end times and the kind of network: all of the last 30 days, and older ones up to 200), kept in the app's private storage. When you open “About the connection”, it reads the Wi-Fi band, standard, link speed and signal, or the mobile network's generation, operator name and signal, only to show them; they're not stored. SpeedLet has no location access, so it never sees the Wi-Fi network's name or where you are.

• What you add: labels you give speed test results (up to 40 characters), and the Wi-Fi signal points you save on “Wi-Fi around your home”: the name you type, the signal, the band and the time, the last 20 of them. While that page is on screen, SpeedLet reads the current Wi-Fi signal every two seconds, only to show it.

• What SpeedLet works out from the above: the plan forecast and daily budget, the “Last 7 days” summary, the apps that used unusually much data yesterday and the comparison of two tests are calculated on your phone from the statistics and results above, and aren't stored anywhere else.

SpeedLet never sends any of this anywhere. If backup is turned on in your phone's settings, Android includes it, like other apps' data, in your own device backup, which only you can restore. The widgets and Quick Settings tile show the same on-device data. CSV export writes a file only where you choose, and only when you ask.

Speed test

When you tap “Start”, in the app or on the speed test widget, the test downloads and uploads random data to and from Cloudflare's speed test service (speed.cloudflare.com), or, when that service turns tests from your network away for a while, to and from SpeedLet's own copy of it, which also runs on Cloudflare's network (speedlet.pages.dev) and keeps nothing. The game ping (Pro, or one test for watching an ad), when you start it with “Test under load” on, does the same for part of its minute, to see how the ping holds up while the line is busy.

• Like any website, Cloudflare sees your IP address and the test traffic.

• SpeedLet sends no identifiers, results are not uploaded, and on mobile data the test uses at most about 200 MB, the game ping about 235 MB.

• To measure ping and packet loss, the test, and the game ping when you start it, also send small probes to Cloudflare: questions to its public DNS resolver 1.1.1.1 that ask only which Cloudflare location answers, and, on networks where that doesn't work, pings. While the status bar speed is on, the screen is on and your internet is down, the same question goes every 15 seconds, to notice when the internet is back. They carry nothing about you or your device.

• Cloudflare's handling of these connections is covered by Cloudflare's privacy policy.

Sharing a result

When you tap “Share” after a speed test or a game ping, SpeedLet draws a picture of the result on your device and hands it, with a line of text and a link to SpeedLet on Google Play, to the app you pick in Android's share sheet. What that app does with it is up to you and that app. SpeedLet shares nothing unless you tap “Share”.

Ads

While the app is open, SpeedLet shows ads from Google AdMob: a banner above the tabs and, after the third speed test and then every fifth, a full-screen ad. You can also choose to watch an ad for one game ping test (up to two a day). Ads never appear in the notification, the widget or the Quick Settings tile, and nothing ad-related runs while the app is closed.

• To show, measure and protect ads from fraud, Google's ad software collects your IP address (and the approximate location it implies), the advertising ID and app set ID, device and app information such as model, Android version and language, and your interactions with ads.

• In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, you are asked for consent before personalised ads, and you can change your choice at any time in Settings → Ad privacy. Without consent, Google shows non-personalised ads.

• You can reset or delete the advertising ID in Android settings (Privacy → Ads).

• A game ping for an ad: the test you earn, and how many you earned in the last day, are kept on your phone, so an unused one survives a restart. No SpeedLet server checks or stores them.

• How Google uses this data: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and the Google Privacy Policy.

Usage analytics and crash reports

SpeedLet uses Google Analytics for Firebase to learn how the app is used, and Firebase Crashlytics to learn when it crashes, so it can be fixed.

• Analytics records what you do in the app: which screens you open, that you started a speed test and whether it finished (not its results), that you shared a result (not the result, nor where to), which of SpeedLet's widgets are on your home screen, which settings you chose, the steps of buying Pro, and whether an ad for a game ping loaded and was watched. With it, Google collects an app instance ID, the advertising ID where allowed, device and app information such as model, Android version, language and country, and your IP address, which it doesn't store.

• Crash reports contain the technical details of the crash, the device model and Android version, and an installation ID.

• Your traffic statistics, speed test results, the outage log, other apps' names and anything you type are never sent.

• How long it's kept: analytics data tied to the app instance ID for at most 14 months, after which only totals without an ID remain; crash reports for 90 days.

• In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, analytics follows the choice you make in the consent form, which you can change in Settings → Ad privacy. The status bar meter itself sends nothing: only the app and the speed test widget do, when you use them.

• Google processes this data for SpeedLet: firebase.google.com/support/privacy.

Purchases

SpeedLet Pro is paid through Google Play. SpeedLet never sees your payment details; Google Play only tells the app whether the purchase is yours. With each purchase, SpeedLet gives Google Play a random identifier of this installation, in scrambled form, which helps Google detect fraud; it carries no name, email or other personal details.

Permissions

• Notifications: Shows the speed icon in the status bar and mobile data warnings.

• Foreground service: Keeps the icon updated while the screen is on.

• Usage access (optional): Complete traffic history per day and per app.

• Wi-Fi state: “About the connection” on Android 8–11: the Wi-Fi band, link speed and signal. Not the network's name or location.

• Run at startup: Turns the icon back on after a restart, if you had it on.

• Internet: For the speed test you start, for ads while the app is open, and for analytics and crash reports.

• Advertising ID: Lets Google's ad software use the advertising ID to show and measure ads.

You can revoke any of these in Android settings. Uninstalling the app deletes all of its data from your device.

Who is responsible for your data

• What stays on your phone (traffic statistics, speed test results, the outage log, your settings) never reaches us or anyone else. Only you and your phone handle it.

• Analytics and crash reports: the developer of SpeedLet, Individual Entrepreneur Bohdan Yaroslavovych Shevtsiv, is responsible for them. Google collects and keeps them for us, as our processor under the Firebase terms.

• Ads: Google decides what its ad software collects and how it uses it, and is responsible for that under its own privacy policy. We chose to show its ads in SpeedLet.

• On what basis. Where the consent form applies (the EEA, the UK and Switzerland), analytics and personalised ads rely on your consent. Crash reports rely on our legitimate interest in finding and fixing crashes; they carry only technical details.

• Where. Google may process this data outside your country, including in the United States, under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and the EU's standard contractual clauses.

Protection, legal requests and sale

• How it's protected. What stays on your phone is in SpeedLet's private storage, which other apps can't read. What leaves the phone goes over encrypted connections, only to the services named in this policy. SpeedLet has no server of its own that keeps anything about you.

• Legal requests. We hold nothing about you beyond the analytics and crash reports Google keeps for us. If a court or another authority lawfully requires them, we disclose only what the law requires and, where we're allowed to, tell you.

• If SpeedLet changes hands. A new owner of the app takes over the analytics and crash reports kept for it, under this policy. Any change to it is published here with a new date.

• No sale. We don't sell your data, and we don't share it for money or for anyone's advertising beyond the ads shown in SpeedLet, as described above.

Your rights

Wherever you live, you can:

• Delete what's on your phone: Android settings → Apps → SpeedLet → Storage → Clear data, or uninstall SpeedLet.

• Turn off personalised ads and analytics where the consent form applies: Settings → Ad privacy in SpeedLet. Anywhere, you can reset or delete the advertising ID in Android settings (Privacy → Ads).

• Start analytics and crash reports afresh: after its data is cleared, SpeedLet gets new IDs, not linked to the old ones, and Google deletes the old data within the periods above.

• Ask us at speedlet.support@gmail.com what we hold, to correct or delete it, to limit or object to its use, or for a copy. Analytics and crash reports carry no name, email or phone number, so we can't tell which records are yours; clearing SpeedLet's data, as above, cuts that link. We answer within 30 days.

• Complain to the data protection authority of the country where you live.

Children

SpeedLet is not directed at children under 13, and it does not knowingly show ads to them.
