By downloading, installing, or using our applications, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

Our applications may collect limited information directly or through third-party services used by the application. The exact information collected depends on the features and services used by each application.

3. Health Data & Google Health Connect Policy (ProtectBody)

Google Health Connect Permissions & Limited Use Disclosure

The use of information received from Google Health Connect will adhere to the Health Connect Permissions Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

  • No Ad Targeting: Health Connect data and health metrics are NEVER used or transferred to third parties for advertising, marketing, or interest-based targeting.
  • No Data Sale: We NEVER sell, rent, trade, or commercialize Health Connect data or health metrics to third parties, data brokers, or advertising networks.
  • No Credit Assessment: Health Connect data is NEVER used to determine creditworthiness or for lending decisions.
  • Strict Feature Scope: Health Connect data is processed strictly to provide and improve user-facing health and fitness features within ProtectBody (such as step tracking and weekly step insights).

3.1 Access and Permissions

ProtectBody requests access to Google Health Connect read permissions (such as step counts and physical activity) only with your explicit runtime consent. You can grant or revoke Health Connect permissions at any time through your Android device settings under Settings > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Health Connect.

3.2 Camera and Meal Photo Storage

ProtectBody requests camera and media storage access solely to allow users to take or choose meal photos to record in their meal log. Photos captured are saved locally on your device and are not uploaded to external servers without your explicit request.

3.3 Health Data Sharing and Transfer Restrictions

ProtectBody does not transfer Health Connect data or personal health metrics to third parties unless required by law, as part of a corporate merger/acquisition with explicit notice, or strictly to service providers essential for app operation under strict data processing agreements.

4. How We Use Information

Information may be used for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain application functionality (including health tracking, step count display, and meal logging)
  • To improve application performance and user experience
  • To diagnose crashes, bugs, and technical problems
  • To understand how users interact with our applications
  • To display advertisements (excluding Health Connect data)
  • To measure advertising performance
  • To prevent fraud, abuse, and security threats
  • To comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements

5. Google AdMob, Google AdSense & Web Advertising Cookies

AndroidRich uses Google AdMob (for mobile applications) and Google AdSense (for this website, androidrich.com), advertising services provided by Google LLC ("Google").

Google, AdSense, AdMob, and their third-party advertising partners use cookies and device identifiers to serve advertisements:

  • DoubleClick DART Cookie: Google uses cookies to serve ads on androidrich.com. Google's use of the DoubleClick DART cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visits to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • Third-Party Vendor Cookies: Third-party ad servers or ad networks may also use cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons in advertisements and links appearing on androidrich.com. These technologies measure the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns and personalize advertising content.
  • Zero Health Data in Ads: Health Connect data, meal logs, and personal health metrics from our applications (such as ProtectBody or Afiah) are strictly excluded from all advertising processing and are never shared with advertising networks.

AndroidRich has no access to or control over cookies that are used by third-party advertisers.

6. Analytics and Other Third-Party Services

Some AndroidRich applications and web pages may use third-party services such as Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Google Firebase. These services process limited device, browser version, usage, diagnostic, or performance information to help us optimize speed and user experience.

The use of a particular third-party service depends on the individual application or web feature.

7. Advertising Choices & Opt-Out Options

Visitors and users have multiple choices to control or opt out of personalized advertising:

  • Google Ad Settings: You can manage or turn off personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • AboutAds.info Opt-Out: You may opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info/choices or Your Online Choices (EU).
  • Browser Cookie Controls: You can configure your web browser to reject cookies or notify you when cookies are sent.
  • Mobile Device Settings: On Android devices, navigate to Settings > Google > Ads > Reset or Delete advertising ID. On iOS devices, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.

Disabling personalized advertising does not eliminate advertisements; rather, it ensures that advertisements displayed will be non-personalized.

8. Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information or health data to third parties.

Information may be processed or shared with service providers where necessary to operate application functionality, analytics, advertising, security, or technical infrastructure.

These service providers may include:

  • Google AdMob (for non-health app features)
  • Google Firebase
  • Analytics providers
  • Crash-reporting providers
  • Hosting or infrastructure providers

Information may also be disclosed where required by law, regulation, legal process, or government request.

9. Children's Privacy

Unless specifically stated otherwise in an application's Google Play listing, AndroidRich applications are not intentionally designed to collect personal information from children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate authorization or consent where such consent is required by applicable law.

If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information through one of our applications, please contact us at privacy@androidrich.com.

10. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information (including health metrics and photos) from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse, or destruction.

Measures may include encrypted network communication using HTTPS/TLS, access controls, secure service configurations, and appropriate security practices.

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Data Retention

Information and health tracking logs are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable laws and third-party service providers.

Health data, step counts, meal logs, and water tracking entries in ProtectBody are stored locally on your device for as long as the application remains installed, unless deleted by the user.

12. Data Deletion Requests

Users may delete health data directly within ProtectBody by clearing app cache/storage or uninstalling the app. You may also request deletion of personal information directly controlled by AndroidRich by contacting:

Email: privacy@androidrich.com

Please use the subject "Privacy Request" or "Data Deletion Request" and identify the AndroidRich application concerned (e.g., ProtectBody).

AndroidRich cannot directly delete data independently controlled by third-party service providers or Google Health Connect local device stores. Requests involving third-party services may need to be handled according to the privacy or account controls provided by those services or device settings.

13. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:

  • Request access to your information
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of information
  • Object to certain types of processing
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
  • Request restriction of processing

14. International Data Processing

Third-party service providers used by our applications may process information in countries other than your country of residence. Their processing practices are governed by their respective privacy policies and applicable laws.

Our applications or websites may contain links to third-party websites or services. AndroidRich is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites.
