Privacy Policy

We believe your data is yours — and only yours. Here's exactly how Call & Chat Reminder protects your privacy.

📋 Summary

Call & Chat Reminder is a 100% offline Android app. It does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. The app has zero internet permission — it physically cannot connect to the internet.

📊 Information We Collect

We collect absolutely nothing. Here's what that means:

  • No personal information is collected
  • No usage data or analytics are gathered
  • No advertising identifiers are used
  • No crash reports are sent anywhere
  • No cookies, trackers, or third-party SDKs are included

📇 Contact List & Phone Numbers

To function correctly, Call & Chat Reminder accesses your Contact List and Phone Numbers. However, this data is never collected, transmitted, or shared with us or any third party.

  • Phone numbers are strictly used locally on your device to schedule and pre-fill messages.
  • Contact data never leaves your device and is not sent to any servers.
  • All selected phone numbers are stored securely in the app's encrypted local database.

🎙️ Voice Recordings

When you use the Call Reminder feature, the app records your voice to create a personal reminder message. This audio recording is handled with full privacy and security.

  • Voice recordings are stored locally on your device only inside the app's encrypted database
  • Recordings are encrypted using AES-256 encryption at rest
  • Audio is never transmitted, uploaded, or shared with anyone
  • Recordings are played back only on your device when a reminder is triggered
  • Deleting a reminder permanently deletes its associated voice recording

Since the app has no internet permission, it is technically impossible for your voice recordings to leave your device.

💾 Data Storage

All your data — reminders, contacts, messages, templates, and settings — is stored locally on your device only. The data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption via Android Jetpack Security.

  • Data is stored in an encrypted local database (Room + SQLCipher)
  • No cloud backup — Android auto-backup is explicitly disabled
  • Data never leaves your device under any circumstance
  • Uninstalling the app permanently deletes all stored data

🚫 Internet Permission

The INTERNET permission is explicitly removed from the app's Android Manifest using tools:node="remove". This means:

  • The app cannot make any network requests — ever
  • No data can be transmitted to any server
  • No third-party service can be contacted
  • The app works fully offline, including in airplane mode

This is not just a promise — it's a technical impossibility. The Android operating system itself blocks the app from accessing the internet.

📱 Permissions Used

The app requests only the minimum permissions necessary to function:

  • READ_CONTACTS — To let you pick contacts from your phone book. Contact data is never copied or stored beyond your selection.
  • POST_NOTIFICATIONS — To show reminder notifications at the scheduled time.
  • SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM — To trigger reminders at the exact date and time you set.
  • USE_BIOMETRIC — To protect the app with your fingerprint or face unlock.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED — To restore your scheduled reminders after a phone restart.
  • RECORD_AUDIO — To let you record voice reminders in your own voice. Audio is stored locally and never shared.

🔗 Third-Party Services

Call & Chat Reminder does not use any third-party services, libraries, or SDKs that collect data. Specifically:

  • No Google Analytics or Firebase Analytics
  • No Facebook SDK or any social media SDK
  • No advertising networks (AdMob, etc.)
  • No crash reporting tools (Crashlytics, Sentry, etc.)
  • No third-party login services

👶 Children's Privacy

This app does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children under 13. Since the app collects zero data and has no internet access, it is safe for users of all ages.

🛡️ Security

We take the security of your data seriously. The app includes multiple layers of protection:

  • AES-256 Encryption — All sensitive data is encrypted at rest
  • Biometric Lock — App access requires fingerprint or face authentication
  • FLAG_SECURE — Screenshots and screen recording are blocked inside the app
  • Integrity Verification — The app checks its own signature to detect tampering
  • No Cloud Backup — Data stays on-device only

📝 Changes to This Policy

If we ever update this privacy policy, the changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Since the app has no internet access, we cannot send in-app notifications about policy changes — so please check this page periodically.
