privacy policy
ova Cleaner ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our mobile application, Pova Cleaner (the "App").
1. No Personal Data Collection
We believe in absolute privacy. Pova Cleaner does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information.
•
We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or location data.
•
We do not access your personal photos, videos, or documents for any purpose other than local scanning as initiated by you.

2. Permissions and Their Usage
To provide its core utility functions, the App requires certain sensitive permissions. These are used strictly locally on your device:
•
All Files Access (MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE): This is the core permission of the App. It allows the App to scan your device storage to identify junk files, system cache, temporary logs, and residual files left by uninstalled applications. This is necessary to perform the "Clean" function.
•
Query All Packages: This allows the App to see the list of installed applications to identify which apps are generating cache or have left residual files after being uninstalled.
•
Kill Background Processes: Used for the "Speed Up" / "Optimize" feature to close non-essential background tasks to free up RAM.
3. Data Safety and Security
•
Local Processing: All analysis, scanning, and cleaning processes happen entirely on your mobile device.
•
No Third-Party Sharing: Since we do not collect any data, we do not share, sell, or trade any user information with third-party companies or advertising agencies.
•
No Ads: (If applicable) The App does not contain third-party advertisements or tracking SDKs.
4. Children’s Privacy
Our App does not collect any information from children. Since no data is collected, we are fully compliant with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
5. Compliance with Google Play Policies
This App complies with the Google Play Developer Program Policies, including the "Deceptive Behavior" and "User Data" policies. We only request permissions that are necessary for the App's core functionality.
6. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy within the App. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes.
