Privacy Policy
DriftClean ("the App", "we", "our", or "us") is a device file-cleaning application designed to help users identify and remove unnecessary files such as advertising cache, outdated APK files, residual data, temporary files, and other storage-consuming items. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle data when you use the App. The EULA (End User License Agreement) governs your use of the App.
1. Data Controller & Data Protection Officer (DPO)
We act as the Data Controller for any information processed by the App.
Data Protection Officer (DPO):
- Name: Evan Mitchell
- Email: brightfunction.code@gmail.com
Users may contact the DPO at any time regarding privacy inquiries, data rights, or complaints.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 On-Device Processing Only (Core Features)
DriftClean performs file scanning, analysis, and cleaning entirely on your device.
We do not upload, transfer, or store any personal files, content, or metadata on our servers.
The following data is processed locally:
- File categories (images, videos, audio, documents, APKs, cache data)
- Storage usage statistics
- File size calculations
- Paths necessary only for scanning and cleaning
This information never leaves your device.
3. Use of Third-Party Platforms
Although core cleaning operations are local, the App may integrate certain third-party services for analytics, attribution, or error reporting. These services may collect limited technical data to help improve reliability, stability, and performance.
3.1 Analytics & Attribution Platforms
We may use attribution or analytics platforms (e.g., Adjust, AppsFlyer, or equivalent) to understand app performance, install sources, and general usage trends.
Possible data collected by these platforms includes:
- Device type, model, operating system
- App version
- IP address (may be collected temporarily and anonymized)
- Basic usage events (e.g., app launch)
No personal files or cleaning results are ever shared with any third-party service.
3.2 Firebase Services
We may use Firebase for:
- Crash reporting
- Analytics
- App performance monitoring
Firebase may collect:
- Device identifiers
- Crash logs
- App usage statistics
We configure Firebase to avoid collecting unnecessary personal information whenever possible.
3.3 Opt-Out of Third-Party Data Collection
Users may:
- Disable data sharing in device system settings (for analytics or advertising ID)
- Exercise applicable opt-out rights described in Section 7
- Contact the DPO to request discontinuation of third-party data sharing where legally applicable
4. Legal Bases for Processing
We rely on the following legal bases depending on your region:
- Legitimate Interests: app functionality, security, analytics necessary for improvement
- Consent: where required, such as analytics identifiers in certain jurisdictions
- Contract Performance: operation of the app as described in this policy
5. Data Retention
- Local file-scan data is retained only on your device and is deleted when you uninstall the app or clear app data.
- Analytics or attribution data retained by third-party platforms is kept only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose described, typically 6–24 months, depending on the provider's policy.
- Crash logs may be stored for up to 12 months to support app maintenance.
You may contact us or the DPO to request further retention details.
6. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights:
6.1 Right to Access Your Personal Data
You may request confirmation of whether any personal data about you has been collected, and if so, receive a copy.
6.2 Right to Rectification
You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data collected by third-party providers on our behalf.
6.3 Right to Know Whether Data Is Shared
You have the right to know:
- What categories of data are shared
- Which third parties receive the data
- For what purposes
6.4 Right to Know Whether Data Is Sold
DriftClean does not sell personal data, and you may request written confirmation of this.
6.5 Right to Deletion (Right to Erasure)
You may request deletion of personal data collected by third-party services.
Since core operations are local, we do not store user data ourselves.
6.6 Right to Opt Out of Sharing or Selling
If applicable in your region, you may opt out of:
- Data sharing
- Attribution tracking
- Any activity that might be considered "selling" under privacy laws
You may opt out by:
- Changing system settings
- Contacting the DPO
- Requesting deactivation of analytics features
6.7 Right to File a Complaint with Regulators
You may file a complaint with your local data protection authority if you believe your rights were violated.
We encourage contacting our DPO first to resolve concerns promptly.
7. Children's Privacy
DriftClean is not intended for children under legal age in their region.
We do not intentionally collect data from minors.
8. Security Measures
We implement technical and organizational measures to protect data, including:
- Local-only processing
- Data minimization
- Device-level permissions management
However, no system is fully secure, and users should use the app responsibly.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time.
Continued use of the App after changes indicates acceptance of the revised Policy.
