I. Introduction

Welcome to Smart Clean Hub (hereinafter referred to as "this application"). We understand the importance of personal information security and privacy protection, and are committed to strictly complying with applicable data protection laws and regulations to safeguard your information security and legitimate rights.

This Privacy Policy aims to clearly inform you how we collect, use, store, transmit, and share your relevant information in the process of providing application services, as well as your related rights and how to exercise them. By downloading, installing, or using this application service, you indicate that you have fully read, understood, and agreed to accept all the contents of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this policy, please do not use this application and related services.

We may revise this Privacy Policy based on business development, technology upgrades, or compliance requirements. The revised policy will be directly displayed on this page. If you continue to use this application after the policy revision, it will be deemed that you accept all the revised contents; if you do not agree, you should immediately stop using this application.

II. Information Collection

To provide you with a stable and efficient junk file cleanup service, we strictly adhere to relevant data protection laws and regulations and the "minimum necessary" principle. We only collect the information necessary to implement the service and request necessary permissions for optimizing user experience, ensuring service operation, and compliant advertising. We will never collect sensitive personal information, specifically as follows:

Device and Network Basic Information: Including but not limited to device brand and model, operating system type and version, application installation version, SDK/API code version, IP address, network connection status, language settings, screen resolution, battery level, etc., used for adapting to the device environment and troubleshooting operational faults;

Service Usage Related Data: Records your interaction with the application, such as function click behavior, application launch frequency, the enabled/disabled status of various permissions, the running results of core functions such as cleanup, basic statistics of applications installed on your device, etc., used for analyzing function usage popularity and optimizing service effectiveness;

Third-Party SDK Related Information: This application integrates compliant third-party SDKs such as Google Admob and Facebook Audience Network. These SDKs may collect your device advertising identifiers (such as Android Ad ID), device type, and other non-personally associated information for advertising placement and performance analysis. Some SDKs may use cookies... Data is stored using technologies such as [other technologies], and all information is not linked to sensitive personal information.

Requested Permissions and Purposes

Storage Permission: A core and essential permission used to scan and identify junk files (such as cache and residual files) on the device. It is fundamental to the cleanup function; without it, the core cleanup service will not function properly.

Location Permission: Only obtains a general network-based location for optimizing regional service adaptation and providing more locally relevant feature recommendations. It does not collect precise geographic location information, and disabling it will not affect the core cleanup function.

III. Purpose of Use

We strictly adhere to the principles of "legality, legitimacy, and necessity." The collected information will be used in accordance with the principle that all information will be used solely for legitimate purposes related to achieving core services and will never be used for any other purpose unrelated to the services, specifically as follows:

Ensuring Core Services: Based on the collected basic device information, junk file data, and related permissions, core functions such as junk file cleanup and background application management will be implemented to ensure the stable operation of all services;

Optimizing Service Experience and Performance: By analyzing user usage habits, operation feedback, and service operation data, the cleanup algorithm will be continuously iterated and upgraded, adapted to more device models and system versions, and the function operation process will be optimized to provide you with a more personalized service experience that meets your needs;

Ensuring Service Security and Compliance Operations: Utilizing basic device information and network status data, we monitor abnormal access behavior, malicious program attacks, fraud risks, and unauthorized usage scenarios, taking timely protective measures (such as blocking abnormal operations and patching security vulnerabilities) to protect your information security and the compliant stability of the service ecosystem;

Handling User Inquiries and Feedback: Based on the contact information you provide and related service usage records, we quickly respond to your complaints, suggestions, inquiries, or problem feedback, pinpointing the root cause of issues and providing targeted technical support and solutions, improving communication efficiency and problem-solving effectiveness;

Compliant Advertising: Based on non-personally associated information such as device advertising identifiers, we will push personalized advertisements that may be relevant to you through compliant third-party SDKs, improving the relevance of ad display. You have the right to opt out of personalized advertising at any time. The specific paths are as follows:

Device System Settings (Android): Open your phone's "Settings," go to "Privacy / Google - Advertising," and enable "Limit Ad Tracking" or "Disable Personalized Ad Requests." For some brands, the path is "Settings - Privacy - Ad Management / Advertising & Privacy," where you can turn off "Personalized Ads."

Device System Settings (iOS): Open your phone's "Settings - Privacy & Security - Advertising," and enable "Limit Ad Tracking."

After opting out, you may still see ads, but personalized ads will no longer be pushed based on your usage habits. You can re-enable this feature at any time through the above paths.

IV. Sharing and Disclosure

We highly value your information security and privacy protection. We strictly adhere to the principle of "minimum necessity and legal compliance" to limit the scope of information sharing and disclosure.

Responding to Compliance Requirements and Judicial Orders: When faced with mandatory requirements from laws and regulations, judicial authorities, or administrative regulatory departments (such as subpoenas, search warrants, court judgments, etc.), or to fulfill statutory duties and comply with legal obligations, we will disclose necessary information to a reasonable extent and will endeavor to strictly limit the scope of disclosure, providing only the minimum set of information required to meet compliance requirements.

Protecting Legitimate Rights and Public Interests: To protect your or other natural persons' legitimate rights and interests, such as the right to life, property, and reputation, or to respond to emergency security incidents (such as preventing personal injury, property damage, or major public safety risks), we may share relevant information to a necessary extent to take reasonable protective measures when we cannot obtain your consent in a timely manner.
