We are committed to safeguarding your privacy while providing a personalized and functional home screen experience with integrated weather features. This policy may be updated periodically, so please check back regularly for changes.

Note: This App is not intended for users under the age of 3. If you are under 3, please do not use the App or provide any personal information to us.

1. Who We Are

As the Data Controller, I determine the purposes and means of processing your personal data.

2. Information We Collect and How We Collect It

We collect only the data necessary to provide and improve the App's functionality. Here's what we collect and why:

2.1 Types of Data Collected

After you agree to give us your location data, the location data collected will be transmitted and stored securely for weather service purposes

We do not collect: Sensitive personal information including your name, email address, financial details, biometric data, or precise geolocation unless explicitly provided by you for weather functionality.

2.2 How We Collect Data

2.3 Data Anonymity

Where possible, your data is stored and processed anonymously. We cannot personally identify you except through approximate location (for weather) or device type (for crash reports).

3. How We Use Your Data

4. Data Retention and Deletion

User information collected through our Service is stored and processed using Google Firebase, which provides secure infrastructure for data storage.We implement SSL encryption during data transmission and utilize AES encryption to protect the content from unauthorized access or disclosure.The data is stored on secure, access-controlled servers managed by Firebase.

We apply commercially reasonable safeguards to protect user information and take steps such as requiring a unique password to verify user identity before granting account access. However, please understand that no system can guarantee absolute security. We cannot ensure or warrant the complete security of any information transmitted via the Service or stored within it, nor can we guarantee that such information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed due to a breach.

Storage Duration:

We encourage users to take responsibility for the confidentiality of their login credentials, including passwords and email communications. You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your account information and controlling access to communication between you and the Service. We are not responsible for the security practices of third-party services.

Deletion of User Information

Please ensure you have backed up any important information before initiating account deletion.

5. Third-Party Data Processing

We rely on trusted third-party services to deliver the App's functionality:

5.1 Google Firebase Services

Google LLC acts as a Data Processor under our instructions. Your data may be transferred to the United States, subject to Privacy Shield or equivalent safeguards.

5.2 Weather Data Provider

5.3 Advertising Services

5.4 Third-Party Data Analytics

Note: We do not control third-party privacy practices. Please review their policies for more details.

6. Data Sharing and Disclosure

Important Notes:

  1. Our App does not request READ_PHONE_STATE or READ_PHONE_NUMBERS permissions, and we do not collect phone numbers, IMEI, or SIM card information. However, integrated third-party SDK (AppLovin and Pangle) may attempt to access related data for advertising purposes.
  2. As a launcher app, we collect information about your installed apps (including app name, package name, version, etc.) to provide core features like the app drawer and quick launch. This data is stored locally only and is not uploaded to our servers. However, third-party ad SDKs (AppLovin, Pangle) may access this information to monitor ad performance and improve ad relevance (e.g., avoiding promotions for already installed apps). All data transmission is encrypted via HTTPS, and information is anonymized.
  3. Our app does not use dynamic code loading techniques (DexClassLoader, DelegateLastClassLoader or InMemoryDexClassLoader), but integrated third-party advertising SDKs (AppLovin, Facebook Ads, and Pangle) may employ these methods for legitimate purposes like optimizing ad delivery performance and complying with platform requirements. All dynamically loaded code is sandboxed within the SDK environment and verified for integrity by the providers, in full compliance with platform policies. These practices are solely for functional purposes and not used to bypass any compliance requirements.
