Privacy Policy for Trovely

Effective Date: October 9, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Trove Tracker. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the data you create while using our application. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information in the Trove Tracker Android app.

2. Information Collection and Use

Trove Tracker is a local-first application designed for personal inventory and maintenance tracking.

• User-Generated Data: All maintenance records, inventory items, and categories are stored locally on your device in JSON format. We do not collect, see, or store this data on any external servers.

• Personal Information: We do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, or phone number.

3. Data Export and Storage Permissions

The app provides an "Export" feature to allow you to back up your data:

• System File Picker: When you export your data (as a JSON or ZIP file), the app uses the standard Android System File Picker. You choose the destination for your files (e.g., local storage, SD card, Google Drive, or OneDrive).

• Control: This process is handled entirely by the Android operating system. Trove Tracker does not have access to your cloud login credentials or any other files in your storage beyond the specific file you choose to save.

4. Third-Party Services

Trove Tracker does not contain third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or hidden tracking scripts. Because this is a paid app, we do not need to monetize your data.

5. Data Retention and Deletion

Since all data is stored locally, you have total control over it.

• Deletion: You can delete your data at any time by clearing the app's storage in your device settings or by uninstalling the app.

• Backups: Any files you have exported via the System File Picker must be deleted manually from the destination where you saved them.

6. Children’s Privacy

Trove Tracker does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Effective Date."
