Electro Download Manager — Privacy Policy

Electro Download Manager ("the app", "we") is developed by TheMrAleX. This policy explains what data the app handles, why, and your choices. It applies to the Android app only.

The following never leaves your phone (except network traffic you yourself initiate to the URLs you choose to download or browse): • Files you download, and the folder you save them to (e.g. Download/Electro). • Your download list, queue, history and scheduled downloads. • In-app browser tabs, history, cookies and site data. • App settings and preferences (theme, language, limits, Pro status cache). We do not have a server that collects these. Uninstalling the app, or clearing its storage, deletes them.

We do not run our own analytics or ad servers. We use the following providers, each acting as an independent controller/processor under its own policy: a) Google AdMob (ads — free users only) • What: advertising identifier, IP address (coarse location), ad interaction and device data used to request and measure ads. • When: only for non-Pro users, and only on the ad surfaces described below (a single banner on the completed-downloads screen and an optional user-initiated rewarded video). Pro users see no ads. • EEA/UK & regulated US states: before any personalized ad we show a Google consent message (Google UMP). You can change or withdraw consent anytime in Settings → About → Privacy options. b) Google Firebase Analytics (usage analytics) • What: app instance identifier and usage events (e.g. screen views, paywall shown, purchase started/completed, ad rewarded), plus device model, OS version, app version, language and coarse country. • Why: to understand how the app is used and improve it. We do not attach your name, email, or file/browsing content to these events. • Opt out: turn off Settings → Privacy → "Send diagnostics & usage data" to stop this collection entirely. c) Google Firebase Crashlytics (crash diagnostics) • What: crash and error reports — stack traces, app version, device model, OS version and device state at the time of the crash (e.g. memory/disk). • Why: to detect and fix crashes. Reports do not include the contents of your files or your browsing. • Opt out: the same Settings → Privacy → "Send diagnostics & usage data" switch also turns off crash reporting. d) RevenueCat + Google Play Billing (purchases) • What: an anonymous app-user identifier and purchase/receipt data needed to unlock and restore the one-time "Pro" purchase. • Payment data: handled entirely by Google Play. We never see or store your card or payment-method details.

• Internet / Network state / Wi-Fi state — download files, load the in-app browser, and (free users) request ads. • All files access (MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE), Read/Write storage — save your downloads to shared storage and manage downloaded files. Used solely for the download-manager function; we do not scan or upload your files. • Notifications — show download progress, completion and alerts. • Foreground service / Data sync / Wake lock — keep downloads running while the app is in the background or the screen is off. • Install packages (REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES) — let you open .apk files you downloaded. We never install anything silently. • Ignore battery optimizations — optional; prevents the system from killing active downloads.

The app is a tool. You decide which websites to visit and which files to download. We do not control, host, monitor or log those sites or files, and any data those third-party sites collect is governed by their privacy policies, not this one. The app does not upload your downloaded files or browsing history anywhere. BitTorrent downloads (peer-to-peer) If you download a torrent, the app uses the BitTorrent protocol: your device connects directly to other participants in that torrent (peers, trackers and the DHT network). As is inherent to BitTorrent, those participants can see your IP address, and while a torrent is active the app also uploads pieces of that torrent's data to other peers — that is how the protocol works. This applies only to torrent downloads, never to your other files or data, and you can avoid it entirely by not downloading torrents. Built-in browser network requests • Site icons: to show website icons in tabs and shortcuts, the app requests them from DuckDuckGo's public icon service (icons.duckduckgo.com), which therefore receives the domain name of the site (not the full URL, and not what you do there) and your IP address. • Ad-block filter lists: if you enable ad-blocking lists, the app downloads them from their public sources (e.g. easylist.to); those servers see a normal download request from your IP. The filtering itself happens entirely on your device — no browsing data is sent to anyone.

• Consent — personalized ads and analytics (via the Google UMP consent message). • Performance of a contract — processing your "Pro" purchase. • Legitimate interests — crash diagnostics and basic, non-personalized app functionality and security.

We share data only with the service providers in Section 3 (Google and RevenueCat) for the purposes described. We do not sell your personal data.

Google and RevenueCat may process data on servers in the United States and other countries, under their own safeguards (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses).

• Local data: until you delete it or uninstall the app. • Analytics/Crashlytics: retained per Google's defaults (Crashlytics reports ~90 days; Analytics up to 14 months), then deleted or aggregated. • Purchase records: retained as required for tax/legal and support purposes.

Depending on your region (GDPR/UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA and others) you may: • access, correct or delete your data; • withdraw consent for ads/analytics — use Settings → About → Privacy options (EEA/UK) and your device's ad-personalization settings; • turn off usage analytics and crash reporting entirely at any time in Settings → Privacy → "Send diagnostics & usage data"; • reset your advertising ID in Android settings; • delete all local data by clearing app storage or uninstalling. To exercise rights involving the providers, see their policies (Section 12) or contact us (Section 13).

The app is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction) and we do not knowingly collect their data.
