Warranty Tracker Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2026-11-02
Warranty Tracker ("the app") helps you keep track of purchases, warranties and return windows. This policy explains what data the app handles and who processes it.
Data stored on your device
The items you add (names, stores, prices, dates, notes) and the photos you attach are stored on your device (see Android backup below), in the app's private storage. The app has no account system and does not upload this data to our servers. Text recognition on receipt photos (the optional date suggestion) runs on your device.
Android backup
If device backup is turned on, Android may back up the item records (without photos) to your Google account as part of its standard app backup. Photos are excluded. This backup is handled by Google under your Google account settings, and you can turn it off in your device settings.
Advertising
The app is free and shows ads through Google AdMob. AdMob may use your device's advertising ID, other device identifiers, your approximate location (derived from your IP address), app interaction data and diagnostic information to serve and measure ads, to prevent fraud, and for security and compliance. This data is received by Google as an ad network. In the European Economic Area and other regions where required, the app shows a consent form (Google's User Messaging Platform) before personalised ads are used, and you can change your choice later in the app. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your Android settings.

Analytics and crash reports
- Firebase Analytics: collects app usage events (such as which screens or features are used) and device identifiers, and only after you give consent where consent is required.
- Firebase Crashlytics: collects crash reports and basic device information (device model, OS version, app version) to help us fix bugs.
These data are used to improve the app. They do not include the contents of your items, notes or photos.
Sale and sharing
We do not sell your personal data. Ad-related data (advertising ID, approximate location from IP address, app interactions and diagnostics) is shared with Google as an ad network, as described above. Firebase processes analytics and crash data on our behalf. We do not share data with anyone else.
In-app purchase
The one-time "remove ads" purchase is processed by Google Play. We do not receive your payment details.
Children
The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Deletion
Everything you enter is stored on your device, so uninstalling the app removes it from the device. Analytics and crash data held by Firebase is not linked to your name or email. For questions or to request deletion of any data associated with you, contact us at the address below.
Changes
We may update this policy. The effective date above shows the latest version.
