MyPlainPhone

This Privacy Policy is a practical template for the current app concept and is not legal advice. Review it with qualified legal counsel before production use.

Overview

MyPlainPhone is an Android app that helps users create a simpler phone experience by setting a cleaner home screen, choosing essential apps, and optionally using Plain Mode controls. The app is designed without user accounts, ads, a custom backend, or a MyPlainPhone login system.

Information we do not collect

MyPlainPhone does not require you to create an account. We do not ask for a name, username, password, profile photo, contact list, precise location, messages, or browsing history as part of the core app experience. We do not sell personal data.

Information stored locally on your device

The app may store settings locally on your Android device, such as your selected essential apps, Plain Mode preferences, schedule settings, onboarding choices, and related configuration. Local settings are used to make the app function on your device and are not sent to a custom MyPlainPhone backend.

App analytics and crash reporting

MyPlainPhone may use Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics, services provided by Google, to understand general app usage, diagnose crashes, improve reliability, and prioritize fixes. These services may process limited technical and usage information such as app-instance identifiers, app lifecycle events, coarse location derived from masked IP addresses, in-app purchase or subscription events, Android Advertising ID if collection is not disabled in the app configuration, device and app metadata, crash stack traces, relevant app state at the time of a crash, and Crashlytics installation identifiers.

Crash reports may also include developer-defined diagnostic details if they are added by the app. MyPlainPhone is not intended to send your selected essential apps, private messages, passwords, payment card details, contact list, or precise location to Firebase. Firebase data is used for analytics and crash reporting, not for selling personal data or serving ads in MyPlainPhone.

Subscriptions and purchases

If MyPlainPhone offers subscriptions or purchases, billing is handled through Google Play Billing. The app may use RevenueCat to manage purchase status, subscription entitlements, renewal state, and related purchase metadata. Google Play and RevenueCat may process information needed to complete purchases, verify entitlements, prevent fraud, and provide subscription management. MyPlainPhone does not receive full payment card details.

Optional accessibility permission

Some optional features, such as Strict Mode or app redirection, may request Android Accessibility permission. When enabled, this permission is intended to detect app changes or foreground app activity so the app can redirect access according to your selected settings. MyPlainPhone is not intended to use accessibility access to read private messages, passwords, payment details, or the contents of unrelated apps.

Accessibility permission is optional. You can choose not to enable it, and you can turn it off later in Android system settings. Some Strict Mode or redirection features may not work without it.

Support emails

If you contact support by email, we may receive the information you choose to include, such as your email address, device model, Android version, app version, screenshots, and issue description. Support information is used to respond to your request and improve the app.

Children's privacy

MyPlainPhone is not directed to children and does not intentionally collect children's personal data. If you believe a child has provided personal data through a support email, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Data sharing

We may share limited information with service providers when needed to operate the app, such as Google Play Billing, RevenueCat, Firebase, email providers, and app store services. We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business transfer.

Your choices and rights

You can change app settings in the app, remove locally stored data by uninstalling the app or clearing app data, manage subscriptions through Google Play, and disable optional Android permissions in system settings. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of certain personal information. Contact us to make a request.

Security

We use practical safeguards appropriate for a small utility app, but no method of storage or transmission is completely secure. You are responsible for keeping your device, Google account, and email account secure.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the app changes. When updates are made, we will revise the effective date above and publish the updated policy on this page.

These Terms of Use are a practical template for the current app concept and are not legal advice. Review them with qualified legal counsel before production use.

Acceptance of terms

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using MyPlainPhone, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

App license and permitted use

MyPlainPhone is licensed, not sold. Subject to these terms, you may use the app for personal, lawful use on Android devices that you own or control. You may not reverse engineer, modify, distribute, resell, interfere with, or misuse the app except where applicable law allows it.

Subscriptions and billing

Some features may require a paid subscription or purchase. Subscriptions and purchases are handled by Google Play Billing and may be managed through your Google Play account. Prices, renewal terms, trials, cancellation options, and taxes are shown by Google Play before purchase where applicable.

Refunds

Refund requests are handled under Google Play policies where applicable. MyPlainPhone does not control every refund decision made through Google Play. You can review and manage purchases through your Google Play account.

Optional permissions

Certain features may ask for Android permissions, including Accessibility permission for Strict Mode or app redirection. You are responsible for deciding whether to enable optional permissions. Some features may not work if required permissions are disabled.

No professional advice

MyPlainPhone is a utility app for simplifying phone use. It is not medical, mental health, legal, financial, parental control, or safety advice. You are responsible for how you configure and use the app.

No warranty

The app is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, MyPlainPhone disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, MyPlainPhone and its publisher will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, device issues, interruption, or inability to use the app.

Changes to the app or terms

We may change, suspend, or discontinue parts of the app, and we may update these terms from time to time. When updates are made, the effective date above will be revised. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated terms.
