Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 10, 2024  ·  Developer: Bharatiya Innovators

Designed with privacy in mind

SmArt Task ManageR is designed to keep task information on your device. According to our stated practices, the app does not operate its own remote servers to collect or synchronize your task information.

01

Overview

Welcome to SmArt Task ManageR ("App", "we", "us", or "our"), developed by Bharatiya Innovators. We value your privacy and aim to be transparent about how information is handled when you use our Android application.

This Privacy Policy describes our stated data-handling practices, the permissions used by the app, and the controls available to you. Please read it carefully before using the application.

02

Data Storage & Privacy by Design

Local task storage: Task information, including task titles, descriptions, categories, repetition schedules, completion statuses, and app preferences, is intended to be stored locally on your device using a Room database.

No developer-operated task synchronization: The app is designed as an offline productivity tool and does not operate its own remote server for automatically uploading, synchronizing, tracking, or selling your task information.

Device and system services: Android operating system features, device backup settings, speech engines, and any enabled third-party components may operate independently of the app. Their behavior depends on your device configuration and the services you use.

Your device's backup configuration may affect whether app data is copied or restored by Android. Do not assume that clearing local storage removes copies that may exist in a separately configured device backup.
03

Data We Do Not Intentionally Collect

Under the app's stated data practices, we do not intentionally collect or transmit the following categories of personal information to developer-operated servers:

  • Personally identifying details such as your full name, postal address, or phone number.
  • Biometric information such as fingerprints or facial-recognition data.
  • Precise GPS location coordinates.
  • Personal photos, contacts, media, or files from your device.
  • Your task titles, descriptions, and completion history for remote task tracking.

The app's actual behavior, operating-system services, and any third-party components must be considered when interpreting these statements. We do not intend this section to describe independent processing performed by Android or other services outside our control.

04

Android Permissions & Their Purpose

SmArt Task ManageR may request Android permissions to provide reminders, schedule alarms, and deliver voice notifications. Permission availability and behavior depend on your Android version, device settings, and applicable system restrictions.

  • POST_NOTIFICATIONS

    Requests permission to display task reminders and notification alerts on Android 13 and later, where applicable.

  • SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM

    Supports scheduling alarms at precise times for tasks that require time-sensitive reminders, subject to Android permission and eligibility requirements.

  • SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW

    Allows supported overlay interfaces to appear over other apps when required by a reminder feature and authorized by the user.

  • USE_FULL_SCREEN_INTENT

    Supports full-screen, call-style reminder interfaces for eligible high-priority tasks, subject to Android and Google Play restrictions.

  • MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS

    Supports audio-setting adjustments associated with voice reminders and compatible audio output behavior.

  • WAKE_LOCK

    Helps keep the processor running during supported alarm operations so the app can perform time-sensitive reminder tasks.

  • BLUETOOTH

    Supports the detection or use of compatible connected Bluetooth audio devices for voice reminder output, where permitted by the Android version and implementation.

  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED

    Allows the app to restore eligible scheduled reminders after the device restarts.

  • DISABLE_KEYGUARD

    May support the intended reminder screen experience on compatible devices. It does not grant permission to bypass the user's device authentication or security.

We intend these permissions to support the app's task management and reminder features, not to collect unrelated personal information. You can manage available permissions in Android settings.

Some permissions require separate user approval or are subject to Android version-specific restrictions. Denying a permission or enabling battery restrictions may affect reminder behavior.
05

Third-Party Services

The app is designed to operate without third-party advertising or cross-app tracking SDKs.

Android system services, installed text-to-speech engines, Bluetooth components, device manufacturers, and services configured by you may process information according to their own policies. For example, speech processing behavior can vary depending on whether your selected speech engine operates entirely on-device or uses an external service.

Please consult the relevant provider's privacy information for services that are independently managed by that provider.

06

Data Security, Retention & Deletion

Task information is intended to remain in the app's local storage. The Android application sandbox provides operating system isolation between applications, but no storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure in every circumstance.

You can edit or delete task information within the app where those controls are available. You can also clear the app's storage or uninstall it through Android settings.

Clearing storage or uninstalling the app may permanently remove locally stored tasks, preferences, and schedules. Separately retained device backups, if enabled, may be subject to Android's backup and restoration behavior.

Because the app is designed without a developer-operated account-based task repository, we do not provide server-side recovery of tasks that exist only in local app storage.

07

Children's Privacy

SmArt Task ManageR is not specifically directed at children under 13 years of age. Under the app's stated data practices, we do not knowingly collect children's personal information through a developer-operated task data collection system.

If you believe that personal information has been provided to us in a manner inconsistent with this policy, please contact us using the details below so that we can review your concern.

08

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the app, its features, applicable requirements, or our data-handling practices.

Updated versions will display a revised effective date where appropriate. If a change materially affects privacy, we will provide notice or obtain consent where required by applicable law.
