Status Video Cutter & Splitter – Privacy Policy
Effective date: 3 November 2026
Status Video Cutter & Splitter ("the app") is made by appydo ("we", "us"). The app is free to use, is supported by ads, and offers optional in-app purchases. This policy explains what information is collected when you use the app, why, and the choices you have. If you have any questions, email us at droidtute@gmail.com.
1. Your videos, audio and photos stay on your phone
The app only works with the videos, songs and photos you choose through Android's photo picker or file picker. All cutting, splitting, trimming, compressing, merging and converting happens on your phone.
We do not upload, collect, view or store your videos, audio or photos on any server, and we do not see their names or contents.
The files the app makes are saved on your phone, in Movies/StatusCutter (videos), Music/StatusCutter (audio) and Pictures/StatusCutter (GIFs). They stay there until you delete them, even if you uninstall the app.
When you share a file to another app, such as WhatsApp, Instagram or YouTube, you choose where it goes, and that app's own privacy policy applies to it.
The app has no accounts. We do not ask for or collect your name, phone number, contacts, photos library, or precise location.
2. Information collected by services we use
The app uses the following services from Google. They may collect information automatically, as described below and in their own privacy policies.
Google AdMob (advertising)
Shows ads to users of the free version. AdMob may collect your device's advertising ID, information about your device and the app (such as model, operating system and language), your IP address (which can show your approximate location), and how you interact with ads. It uses this to show ads, measure them, prevent fraud and, where permitted, show ads based on your interests.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the app asks for your consent through Google's consent form before personalised ads are shown. You can change your choice at any time in the app under Settings → Privacy options.

Google Firebase Analytics (usage statistics)
Helps us understand how the app is used so we can improve it. It collects information such as which screens are opened, which tools are used, settings chosen in the app (such as theme and default clip length), details of saves (such as the number of clips, their length, quality and resolution), whether a purchase or an ad was completed, and general information about your device and the app (such as device model, operating system version, app version, country and an app instance ID).
It does not collect your videos, audio, photos or their file names.

Google Firebase Crashlytics (crash reports)
Helps us find and fix problems. When the app crashes or hits a serious error, Crashlytics collects a crash report, which includes technical details such as the error and where it happened in the app, device model, operating system version, app version, available memory and storage, an installation ID, which screen or step was in progress (for example, saving) and whether you have Pro. Crash reports are kept for 90 days.
Google Play Billing (purchases)
Purchases of Pro and Remove ads are handled by Google Play. We never see or store your card or payment details. The app receives only the status of your purchase from Google Play so it can unlock what you bought.

3. When you contact us
If you email us, including through Send feedback in the app, we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. Send feedback also fills in your app version, phone model and Android version, which you can see and remove before sending. We use this only to reply to you and to fix problems, and we do not share it.
4. Permissions the app uses
Internet and network access: to show ads, send usage statistics and crash reports, and check purchases.
Notifications: to show the progress of a save and tell you when it is finished.
Foreground service: so a save can keep running if you leave the app.
Advertising ID: used by AdMob, as described above.
The app does not ask for permission to read all your photos and videos. It uses Android's photo picker and file picker, which give it access only to the items you choose.
5. How information is shared
We do not sell your information. Information is shared only with the Google services listed above, which process it to provide their services to us, or where we are required to by law.
6. How long information is kept
Videos, audio and photos are never sent to us, so we keep none of them. Usage statistics are kept for a limited period set in our Firebase settings and then deleted automatically. Crash reports are kept for 90 days. Emails are kept only as long as needed to help you.
7. Your choices
Change your ad consent at any time under Settings → Privacy options (where it applies to you).
Reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalised ads, in your phone's settings (on most phones, Settings → Google → Ads, or Settings → Privacy → Ads).
Remove ads entirely by buying Pro or Remove ads in the app.
Uninstall the app to stop all collection. Files you saved stay on your phone until you delete them.
Email us at droidtute@gmail.com if you would like us to delete information connected to you, or if you have questions about your rights under the law where you live.
8. Children
The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Security
Information sent to the Google services above is sent over encrypted connections. No method of sending or storing information is completely secure, but we use these established services to protect it.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time, for example when the app gains new features. We will post the new version on this page and change the effective date above. Please check this page from time to time.
