Battery Alarm: Charge Alert

Last Updated: [Insert Date]

This Privacy Policy describes how Battery Alarm: Charge Alert ("the App," "we," "us," or "our") handles information when you use our mobile application. We built this app with privacy as a priority — it is designed to work entirely on your device, without collecting or transmitting your personal data to us or any third party.

By using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information.

The App operates locally on your device. Specifically:

No account or sign-up is required to use the App.
No personal identifiers (name, email, phone number, etc.) are collected.
No location data is collected.
No contacts, photos, or files are accessed.
No data is sent to our servers, because we do not operate any backend servers that store user data.

Battery & Device Information

To provide the App's core features (charge alarms, overheat alerts, low battery alerts, battery health/voltage/temperature display), the App reads the following device information locally:

Battery percentage
Battery charging status
Battery temperature
Battery voltage
Battery health status

This information is processed only on your device, used solely to trigger the alarms and display the dashboard/widgets you configure, and is never transmitted, stored remotely, or shared with any third party.

2. Permissions We Use

Permission	Purpose
Battery Stats / Battery Manager	To read battery percentage, temperature, voltage, and health for alarms and the dashboard
Notifications	To send you charge alarm, overheat alarm, and low battery alerts
Display Over Other Apps / Foreground Service	To keep alarm monitoring running reliably and show home screen widgets
Vibrate / Sound / Do Not Disturb access	To play your chosen alarm ringtone and volume for alerts
Boot Completed	To resume alarm monitoring automatically after your device restarts

We only request permissions that are necessary for the App's features to function. We do not request access to your camera, microphone, contacts, SMS, call logs, or precise location.

3. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, trade, or share any user data with third parties, because we do not collect any data to share in the first place.

Third-Party Services (if applicable to your build)

If the App uses any of the following services, they may collect limited data under their own privacy policies:

Advertising networks (e.g., Google AdMob) — only if ads are included in the App
Analytics/crash reporting (e.g., Google Firebase/Crashlytics) — only if analytics are included in the App

⚠️ Note for you (the developer): If your app includes ads or analytics SDKs, you must disclose this and list the specific services, since those SDKs do collect data (device ID, ad ID, crash logs, usage analytics) even though your app itself doesn't. If your current build has no ads and no analytics, delete this subsection entirely before publishing — that's the cleanest option for Play Store review and user trust.

4. Data Security

Since all data processed by the App (battery stats, alarm settings, ringtone/volume preferences) stays locally on your device and is never transmitted externally, there is no server-side data to secure. Your alarm preferences are stored using standard local app storage provided by the Android operating system and are removed when you uninstall the App.

5. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the applicable minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect any information from children. Since the App does not collect personal data from any user, this applies equally to users of all ages.

6. Your Rights and Choices

Because the App does not collect or store personal data on any server, there is no personal data for us to provide, correct, or delete on your behalf. All app settings and preferences can be reset or removed at any time by:

Clearing the App's data via Android Settings > Apps > Battery Alarm > Storage > Clear Data, or
Uninstalling the App

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the App's functionality or for legal/regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
