Privacy Policy – Spaclip Storage Cleaner
1. Welcome & Agreement to This Policy
This privacy notice applies fully to Spaclip Storage Cleaner, our Android utility app built to free up phone storage by clearing junk cache, duplicate media, leftover install files and oversized unused documents. This document lays out every detail about how we collect, handle, store and protect all information linked to your use of Spaclip.
By downloading, installing, opening Spaclip, granting storage access and running any scan or cleanup action inside the app, you voluntarily accept all terms written in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these rules, you must stop using Spaclip and uninstall the app right away.
Spaclip follows all official Google Play platform requirements, plus major global privacy laws including the EU GDPR, California CCPA/CPRA, and U.S. COPPA. Our core privacy promise is simple: all file scanning and cleanup operations run entirely on your phone hardware. We will never automatically send your private photos, personal documents or confidential media to any remote cloud server unless you manually opt into a separate backup feature with your clear consent.
2. What Information We Gather
2.1 Info You Send to Us Voluntarily
- Feedback messages and device details you submit through the in-app help form to report scanning errors, crashes or feature issues
- An optional email address you share only so we can reply to your support tickets and resolve your problems
- Local custom preferences you set inside Spaclip: scan filters, file sorting orders and temporary scan cache stored only on your device
2.2 Anonymous Technical Data Collected Automatically
- Basic device hardware & system details: Android OS build version, phone brand/model, Spaclip app version, total and remaining storage capacity on your device
- Anonymous advertising ID (GAID): Used solely to display non-personalized free ads within the app; you can fully turn this tracking off through your Android system privacy settings
- Aggregated crash and performance logs: De-identified error reports to fix scanning bugs and boost app stability; these logs contain zero raw private file or media content from your storage
- Unlinked usage statistics: Anonymous records of how often you run storage scans, how much junk you clear and which app features you click on; none of this data can be traced back to you as an individual user
2.3 Data We Will Never Collect Under Any Circumstance
Spaclip does not request or gather contacts, SMS text logs, call history, calendar entries, continuous background location tracking, bank account numbers, online banking login credentials, government ID records, third-party app account login data or private chat content from other installed mobile applications.
3. On-Device File Processing Rules
Spaclip needs standard storage access to traverse all folders on your device and identify junk files, residual app cache, duplicate photos/videos, unused APK install packages and large redundant media files for manual user cleanup. The app only reads basic file metadata including file names, sizes, formats and storage paths to separate junk items from your personal content.
We never parse, preview or extract the internal text, image or confidential content stored inside your private documents, selfies, personal videos and sensitive files. Every file scan and classification process happens locally on your phone, with no automatic background upload of your personal files to external servers. You have full control to revoke storage permissions at any time in your Android system settings; once revoked, all scanning and cleanup tools inside Spaclip will stop functioning completely.
4. Why We Use Collected Data
Every piece of data we collect is only processed for narrow, defined service purposes. We will not repurpose or reuse your information for unrelated activities without your separate, written explicit consent.
- Deliver our core storage cleaning service: Traverse device storage via storage access, sort junk files and list redundant media so you can manually select and delete files to free up phone space
- Improve app compatibility and performance: Fix scanning crashes, speed up full-storage scan cycles and adapt Spaclip to work smoothly across all Android device brands and system versions
- Keep the app free for all users: Show non-targeted contextual advertisements via Google AdMob; your scanned file metadata will never be used to build personalized ad profiles for you
- Address user technical support requests: Read your feedback and resolve scan permission failures, compatibility bugs and other usage issues you report to our team
- Meet all legal obligations and Google Play platform compliance standards required to distribute Spaclip on the Play Store
Spaclip will never sell, rent, trade or license your device metadata and scanned file information to advertising firms, data brokers or any commercial third-party businesses for profit.
5. Third-Party Service Partners
Spaclip only shares anonymized, non-personal technical statistical data with essential third-party service providers. All our partner companies sign legally binding data protection agreements that ban unauthorized disclosure of your device and file information.
Integrated Third-Party SDK Tools
- Google Firebase Crashlytics: Collect anonymous crash logs to repair bugs and improve app performance; this SDK cannot access local private media, documents or full storage files saved on your phone
- Google AdMob: Serve free in-app contextual advertisements, process your anonymous advertising ID to control ad display frequency and limit repetitive ad pop-ups
- Google Play Billing: Process premium ad-free upgrade subscription orders; all payment transaction data is fully managed and stored by Google, and Spaclip never caches or saves any payment details on our systems
Mandatory Legal Data Disclosure Scenarios
We may release anonymized aggregated device statistical data only when we receive valid court orders, official government regulatory requests, or when disclosure is necessary to protect platform security, our legal rights and the safety of user data.
6. How Long We Keep Your Data
- Temporary scan cache: Local file scanning indexes and preview records stored inside Spaclip’s private app folder get automatically erased the moment you fully close the application
- Anonymous crash & usage logs: Retained on backend servers for a maximum of 12 months to support product updates and optimization, then permanently deleted from all storage systems automatically
- User feedback support records: Messages you submit via the help form are stored for 90 days to allow our team to follow up on your inquiries, then fully purged from our databases
- Local user scan preferences: Filter and cleanup rules you customize live only on your mobile device, and stay saved until you manually clear Spaclip’s app storage or uninstall the software entirely
Spaclip does not enable automatic cloud sync for local device files by default. All scanned file metadata stays confined to your mobile hardware and will not be transmitted to remote servers unless you manually activate an optional backup feature.
7. Data Security Safeguards
We implement industry-standard technical and administrative safeguards to shield anonymous device data and local scan records from unauthorized access, data leaks, tampering and permanent loss:
- All network data transfers between your device and third-party SDK backend servers use TLS 1.3 end-to-end encryption to block interception during transmission
- Third-party SDK data access is strictly isolated by Android system permission limits; external tools cannot independently read full local storage files without your granted permissions
- Our backend staff access controls require multi-factor identity verification and strict role-based authority limits to restrict who can view aggregated anonymous data
- We run quarterly automated vulnerability scans on Spaclip’s source code and all data transmission channels to eliminate potential security loopholes
- A formal data breach emergency response protocol is in place: We will notify all impacted users and relevant local regulatory authorities within 72 hours if any unauthorized data exposure incident takes place
No digital storage or internet transmission system can guarantee perfect 100% data security. We strongly recommend you set a secure screen lock password for your mobile device to prevent unauthorized third parties from accessing your local private files.
8. Your Privacy Controls & Rights
Every Spaclip user worldwide holds the following actionable privacy rights over data generated from your app usage:
- Right to limit data collection: Toggle off anonymous crash log reporting and advertising ID tracking through your Android system privacy settings
- Right to erase local data: Clear all Spaclip scan cache, filter preferences and temporary file records via your phone’s system application management menu
- Right to withdraw consent: Revoke Spaclip’s storage access permissions at any time in system settings; all storage scan and cleanup functionality will disable immediately after permission removal
9. Extra Rights for California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)
If you live in California, United States, you hold supplementary privacy rights laid out under the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act. You may submit a written request to receive full disclosure of all data categories we collected about you over the prior 12 months, and demand permanent deletion of all anonymous statistical data linked to your device identifier.
Spaclip never sells any personal identifiable user information, so there is no separate opt-out process for data sales. Exercising your CCPA rights will not block your access to all core free storage scanning and cleanup features inside the app.
10. GDPR Rights for EU, UK & Swiss Users
Users located within the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland receive full data subject protections under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You have the legal right to object to data processing carried out under our legitimate business interest, and you may submit a formal written complaint to your local data protection supervisory authority if you believe Spaclip has violated GDPR privacy rules.
All cross-border data transfers outside of European regions use European Commission approved Standard Contractual Clauses to maintain equivalent data protection standards for EU users.
11. Rules for Users Under 13 (COPPA)
Spaclip Storage Cleaner is designed and rated for users aged 13 and older. We will not intentionally collect personal identifiable data from children under 13 without verifiable written parental consent required by U.S. COPPA regulations.
If you are a parent or legal guardian and discover your minor child has used Spaclip without your formal approval, please reach out to our dedicated privacy email listed below. We will fully delete all child-related stored feedback and statistical data within 14 business days after we verify your legal identity documentation.
12. Updates to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the full right to revise and update this Privacy Policy on a regular basis to align with updated Google Play platform policies, global cross-border data protection legislation and functional adjustments made to Spaclip.
Material policy revisions that alter storage data access rules, third-party data sharing scope or standards for processing sensitive user data will be announced via in-app pop-up alerts at least 14 calendar days before the updated policy officially takes effect. Minor text wording corrections and formatting tweaks will only refresh the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page without separate advance user notifications.
Your continued use of Spaclip’s storage scan, duplicate media identification and file cleanup tools after the effective date of revised policy terms counts as your full voluntary acceptance of all updated privacy clauses.
