Zenora ("Zenora", "we", "us", or "our") is a calm and intentional Android launcher designed to help you use your phone more intentionally.

Your privacy is important to us. Zenora is designed so that information accessed by the app is processed locally on your device. Zenora does not collect, upload, sell, or share your personal or device data with us, advertisers, analytics providers, or other third parties.

1. Information Zenora Accesses

Depending on the features you choose to use and the permissions you grant, Zenora may access certain information on your device.

Installed applications

Zenora may access information about applications installed on your device. This is necessary for launcher functionality, including displaying your applications, app search, app organization, and related launcher features.

This information is processed locally on your device and is not transmitted to us.

Usage information

If you enable Zenora's usage-awareness features, Zenora may access application usage information through Android's Usage Access functionality.

This may include information such as which application is being used and how long an application has been in use.

This information is used locally on your device to provide features such as usage awareness and time-awareness functionality. It is not uploaded to Zenora or shared with third parties.

Accessibility information

Zenora provides an optional short-form-video blocking feature that uses Android's Accessibility Service.

When you enable this feature, Zenora's Accessibility Service monitors the relevant on-screen information needed to identify short-form content in supported applications such as YouTube and Instagram.

The Accessibility Service is used solely to provide the functionality you have enabled, such as detecting Shorts or Reels and returning you to the launcher.

Accessibility information processed by this feature remains on your device and is not transmitted to Zenora or third parties.

Contacts

Zenora may request access to your contacts for launcher functionality that requires contact information, such as providing access to contacts from the launcher.

If you grant this permission, the relevant contact information is processed locally on your device. Zenora does not upload or share your contacts.

Photos, videos, and other media

Zenora may request access to photos, videos, audio, or other media on your device where required by features such as sharing or selecting media.

Media accessed by Zenora remains on your device unless you explicitly use Android's sharing functionality to send content to another application or service.

Zenora does not upload your media to its own servers.

Wallpaper

Zenora may access wallpaper information where required for launcher appearance and related functionality.

Wallpaper information is processed locally on your device and is not uploaded to Zenora.

Phone functionality

Zenora may request phone-related permissions when required for launcher functionality, such as initiating a phone call when you choose to contact someone.

Zenora does not collect or upload your call history or recordings.

Notifications

If you grant notification permission, Zenora may use notifications for features you enable, such as time-awareness or other launcher-related reminders.

Notification permission is used only for the relevant functionality and notification content is not uploaded to Zenora.

Other device functionality

Zenora may use Android system capabilities such as alarms, vibration, foreground services, overlays, and background operation to provide features that you enable.

These capabilities are used locally on your device and are not used to transmit your personal information to Zenora.

2. Information Zenora Collects

Zenora does not operate a backend server for collecting your personal information.

Zenora does not intentionally collect or transmit:

Zenora does not require you to create an account.

3. Data Storage

Information used by Zenora's features is processed and, where necessary, stored locally on your Android device.

Zenora does not maintain a remote account or cloud database containing your personal information.

Deleting Zenora from your device will generally remove Zenora's locally stored application data according to Android's standard application-data handling.

4. Data Sharing

Zenora does not sell, rent, or share your personal or sensitive user data with third parties.

Zenora does not use advertising networks or analytics services to collect information about your use of the app.

If you explicitly use Android's system sharing functionality to share content from Zenora with another application, that sharing is initiated by you and is governed by the privacy practices of the application or service you choose to share with.

5. Internet Access

Zenora may have access to the Internet for Android functionality or features that require network connectivity.

Zenora does not use this access to upload your personal information, application usage information, contacts, media, accessibility information, or other sensitive information to Zenora's servers.

6. Children's Privacy

Zenora is not specifically directed toward children.

Zenora does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because Zenora does not maintain user accounts or collect personal information on its servers, there is no user profile or personal-information database maintained by Zenora.

7. Security

Because Zenora processes its information locally on your device and does not maintain a server containing your personal information, Zenora does not maintain a separate cloud database of your personal data.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Android device, including its screen lock, permissions, and other device security settings.

8. Your Choices

You control which Android permissions you grant to Zenora.

You can manage or revoke permissions through your Android device's Settings.

You can also disable optional Zenora features that require special permissions, including Accessibility Service, Usage Access, overlay permission, notifications, and other permissions.

Revoking a permission may prevent the associated Zenora feature from functioning.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when Zenora's functionality or privacy practices change.

When changes are made, the updated policy will be published at the same privacy-policy URL with a new "Last updated" date.

You should review this policy periodically for any changes.
