Status Keeper — Status Saver, File Recovery & Chat Tools
Effective date: October 19, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how the Android app Status Keeper (package com.statuskeeper.Recovery), published by coder programmer ("we", "us"), handles information when you use it.
In short: the app works on your phone. We do not have servers, we do not ask you to create an account, and we do not collect, store or sell your personal data. The only data that leaves your phone is what the advertising service (Google AdMob) needs to show ads, described in section 5.
The following data is created and kept only on your phone. It is never uploaded to us or to anyone else:
Saved statuses and video parts — files you choose to save are copied to your gallery (Pictures/StatusKeeper and Movies/StatusKeeper).
WhatsApp messages for the "Deleted messages" feature — if you turn this feature on, the app keeps the sender name, chat name, message text and time of the WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business notifications you receive, in a private database inside the app.
Copies of received WhatsApp photos and videos ("WA Media") — if you allowed folder access, the app keeps a private copy of media you receive so you can still see it if the sender deletes it. These copies are deleted automatically after 15 days.
Restore history — the names of files you restored from the trash.
Settings — your language, theme, favorites and similar preferences.
Permission
Why it is used
Folder access to the WhatsApp "Media" folder (chosen by you in the Android file picker)
To show the statuses you already viewed in WhatsApp / WhatsApp Business so you can save them, and to keep copies of received media for the "WA Media" feature.
Notification access (optional)
Only for the "Deleted messages" feature. The app reads notifications from WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business only; notifications from all other apps are ignored. A clear explanation is shown in the app before you are asked for this access.
Photos and videos (Android 13+) / Storage (older Android)
To list the photos and videos in your phone's trash ("recently deleted") so you can restore them, and on Android 9 or older to save files to your gallery.
Photo picker
To let you choose a video for the Video Splitter. The app only receives the video you pick.
Internet
To show ads and to open WhatsApp Web inside the app.
You can refuse or remove any of these permissions at any time in your phone's settings. The related feature will simply stop working.
We do not collect your name, phone number, contacts, location or account information.
We do not read your WhatsApp chats or chat database. The "Deleted messages" feature only uses notifications that Android shows on your screen.
We do not upload your photos, videos or messages anywhere.
We do not sell or rent any data.
The app shows ads served by Google AdMob. To deliver and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google may collect and process information such as your device's advertising ID, IP address, device and app information, and how you interact with ads. Google may use cookies or similar technologies.
Google Privacy Policy: policies.google.com/privacy
How Google uses data from partner apps: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in your Android settings (Settings › Google › Ads or Settings › Privacy › Ads).
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the app uses Google's User Messaging Platform to ask for your consent before personalized ads are shown. You can change your choice later.
When you choose to rate the app, Google Play shows its own rating window. Your rating is handled by Google Play under Google's Privacy Policy; we do not receive your identity.
The "WA Web" tool opens web.whatsapp.com inside the app. Everything you do there is between you and WhatsApp and is governed by WhatsApp's Privacy Policy. Login cookies are stored only inside the app on your phone.
Deleted messages and WA Media: open "Deleted messages" and tap the 🗑 button to delete everything, or delete a single chat.
Saved files: delete them in the app's gallery or in your phone's gallery.
Restore history: tap "Clear history" in the deleted photos screen.
Everything: uninstalling the app removes all data it stored, except the files you saved to your gallery.
Received media copies are deleted automatically after 15 days.
Data created by the app stays in the app's private storage on your phone, which other apps cannot read. No data is sent to our servers because we do not operate any.
The app is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, contact us and we will help.
Status Keeper is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by WhatsApp LLC or Meta Platforms, Inc. "WhatsApp" is a trademark of its owner, used here only to describe compatibility. Please respect the rights of others: ask for permission before saving or reposting someone else's content.
We may update this policy when the app changes. The new version will be published on this page with a new effective date. Important changes will also be announced in the app.
