Effective Date: August 31, 2026
1. INTRODUCTION & DATA CONTROLLER IDENTIFICATION
Welcome to Ai Dev Tools. This Privacy Policy governs the processing of data collected or utilized by the mobile application "Ai Dev Tools" (Package Name: com.ak.aidev), owned, engineered, and published by Akash Kailashiya, operating under the technical brand and blog "AK Tips Hindi" (accessible at https://aktipshindi.blogspot.com).
Akash Kailashiya acts as the Data Controller for this application. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of data protection, user confidentiality, and transparency. This Privacy Policy provides a detailed explanation of how our software interacts with your device hardware, system diagnostics, network infrastructure, and operating system permissions.
By installing, accessing, or using Ai Dev Tools, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any portion of this policy, please uninstall and discontinue use of the application immediately.
2. CORE PRIVACY PHILOSOPHY: STRICT ON-DEVICE PROCESSING
Our foundational architecture is built around a "Privacy-First & On-Device Processing" model. Ai Dev Tools functions primarily as a local device diagnostics, hardware monitor, and developer utility dashboard.
WE DO NOT COLLECT, TRANSMIT, SELL, RENT, LEASE, OR SHARE YOUR PERSONAL IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (PII), DEVICE HARDWARE SERIALS, OR INSTALLED APPLICATION DATA TO EXTERNAL SERVERS, ANALYTICS COMPANIES, OR THIRD-PARTY ADVERTISING NETWORKS. All data calculations, hardware telemetry readings, and package inspections take place in real-time exclusively within your device's local memory runtime.
3. DETAILED DATA PROCESSING & PERMISSIONS BREAKDOWN
3.1 Device Hardware Telemetry & Performance Metrics
- Technical Scope: Ai Dev Tools continuously inspects system metrics, including CPU utilization rates (parsed locally from /proc/stat), RAM allocation (total vs. available memory via ActivityManager.MemoryInfo), internal storage capacity (via StatFs on Environment.getDataDirectory()), battery status (via BroadcastReceiver for Intent.ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED), and active network connectivity status.
- Purpose & Treatment: These performance metrics are calculated strictly to render live dashboard visualizations, progress charts, and hardware diagnostic monitors on your screen. None of these hardware telemetry data points are recorded, saved to external storage, or transmitted across the internet.
3.2 Installed Application Diagnostics (QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES Permission)
- Technical Scope: Our application utilizes the android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission to power the "App Analyzer" tool. This allows the application to query installed software packages on your Android device to retrieve package names, version codes, target SDK levels, installer sources, and declared manifest permissions.
- Data Protection Commitment: Package querying occurs strictly within the local application sandbox. The retrieved app metadata is presented on screen for developer analysis only. No list of your installed apps is compiled, uploaded, transmitted, or shared with any server or remote entity.
3.3 Network Diagnostics & Location Permission (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
- Technical Scope: To provide network diagnostic tools (such as Wi-Fi connection info, SSID identification, signal strength, and IP configuration), Android OS policies require the declaration of android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION and android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE.
- Strict Limitation: We do NOT track, record, log, or transmit your actual physical GPS location or geographical coordinates. The location permission is strictly required by the Android Operating System framework to read connected Wi-Fi Network Names (SSID).
3.4 User-Generated Content & Local Configurations
- Technical Scope: Features such as Quick Notes, Focus Timer logs, customized Quick Action sequences, and dynamic theme preferences (powered by T8RIN DynamicTheme and custom color presets) generate local data.
- Storage: All user-created notes and configuration files are stored locally in your device's isolated Android DataStore sandbox (SharedPreferences/Preferences DataStore). This data remains on your physical device and is managed entirely by you.
4. RUNTIME ANDROID PERMISSIONS MATRIX & JUSTIFICATION TABLE
Permission Name | Core Technical Purpose & Justification
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES | Enables the App Analyzer feature to inspect package names, SDK targets, and manifest permissions locally.
android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION | Mandatory requirement by Android OS framework to read connected Wi-Fi SSID and network diagnostic state.
android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE | Checks active network interface (Wi-Fi vs. Cellular) to report connectivity status and ping latency.
android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE | Retrieves Wi-Fi connection info, link speed, and IP address for Network Tools display.
android.permission.INTERNET | Used to load curated RSS news feeds, verify network ping targets, and stream YouTube embedded video showcases.
android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS | Delivers system notifications for Focus Timer completions and user-configured monitoring alerts.
android.permission.VIBRATE | Provides haptic vibration feedback for timer alarms and interactive UI buttons.
5. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES & INTEGRATIONS
Ai Dev Tools relies on a minimal set of standard, trusted framework components:
- Google Play Services: Utilized for basic app runtime compatibility, Android App Bundle distribution, and system framework support.
- Embedded YouTube Player (WebView): Used within the application showcase to play video tutorials and previews. Interacting with embedded videos is subject to Google/YouTube's Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy).
- Open Source UI Libraries: We incorporate audited open-source libraries (including Jetpack Compose, Material 3, and T8RIN DynamicTheme) which execute locally within your app process.
6. DATA RETENTION AND DELETION PROTOCOLS
Because all user data (Quick Notes, timer histories, theme selections, and Quick Action orders) is stored locally on your device's internal storage, data retention is entirely under your control. You may clear all local app data at any time by navigating to Android System Settings > Apps > Ai Dev Tools > Storage > Clear Data, or by uninstalling the application. Uninstalling the app permanently purges all locally stored preferences and files.
7. CHILDREN'S ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT (COPPA) & GDPR COMPLIANCE
Ai Dev Tools is designed as a technical utility for Android developers, system administrators, and general mobile users. We do not knowingly target or collect personal information from children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Union). If you believe a child has provided personal data through our app, please contact us at akashkailashiyabusiness@gmail.com, and we will take immediate steps to address the issue.
8. SECURITY INFRASTRUCTURE
We implement industry-standard technical measures to safeguard your app environment. By restricting data processing to the on-device Android Application Sandbox and utilizing Android DataStore, your configuration details are protected against unauthorized external access.
9. AMENDMENTS & UPDATES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in legal requirements, operating system policies, or app capabilities. Any updates will be published on our official blog at https://aktipshindi.blogspot.com/p/privacy-policy-for-ai-dev-tools.html with a revised "Effective Date".
