Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

NOTIPICATION ("we", "our", "the app") is a personal productivity application for managing reminders, to do lists, and habits, with optional notification delivery via WhatsApp. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

2. Information We Collect

• Account information: your name, email address, and password (stored as a secure hash, never in plain text).
• Content you create: reminders, to do lists, notes, checklists, and habits you add to the app, including their titles, descriptions, dates, and completion status.
• WhatsApp number: only if you choose to enable WhatsApp notifications, and only after you verify the number yourself via a one-time code. This number is used solely to deliver the notifications you've opted into.
• Device notification token: a technical identifier used to deliver in-app push notifications to your device.
• Subscription records: if you subscribe, Google Play handles the payment entirely — we store only your subscription's status and expiry date, never your card, UPI, or bank details.
• Advertising identifier: on the Free plan only, your device's advertising ID is available to Google AdMob so it can select and measure the banner ad. Paid subscribers see no ads, and no advertising ID is used.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information solely to operate the app: to save and sync your reminders, to do lists and habits across sessions, to send you the notifications you've configured (in-app and, if enabled, WhatsApp), and to manage your account and subscription. We do not sell your personal information.

On the Free plan the app shows a banner ad supplied by Google AdMob. Your reminders, to do lists, habits, name, email and phone number are never sent to any advertiser — ad requests carry none of your content. Section 5 below explains this in full.

4. Data Sharing

We share data only with the service providers necessary to operate the app: our hosting provider (to store your data), Firebase Cloud Messaging (to deliver in-app notifications), Fast2SMS (to deliver WhatsApp notifications, only for numbers you've verified), Google Play Billing (to process and verify subscriptions), and Google AdMob (to serve the banner ad on the Free plan). We do not share your personal content — reminders, to do lists, or habits — with any third party for their own purposes.

5. Advertising

The Free plan shows a single banner ad supplied by Google AdMob. To serve it, Google may use your device's advertising ID and basic technical information such as device type, coarse region, and general app usage.

Two things worth being explicit about:

• Paid subscribers see no ads at all. While your subscription is active the app requests no ads and loads no ad code.
• No personal content ever reaches an advertiser. Your reminders, to do lists, habits, name, email address and WhatsApp number are never included in an ad request.

If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, the app shows Google's consent form before requesting any ad, and your choice there governs whether ads are personalised. You can change that choice at any time from the app's profile screen. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID from your device under Settings → Google → Ads. Google's own handling of ad data is described in Google's Privacy & Terms.

6. Data Retention & Deletion

Your data is retained for as long as your account is active. You can delete individual reminders, notes, or habits at any time within the app. To request full account deletion, contact us using the details below.

7. Your Choices

WhatsApp notifications are entirely opt-in — you choose whether to verify a number and which items send you a WhatsApp message. You can manage your notification preferences, ad settings, and account details from within the app at any time. Subscribing to a paid plan removes ads entirely.

8. Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, including encrypted password storage and secured API access. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information to the best of our ability.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Continued use of the app after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

10. Contact Us

If you have questions about this policy or your data, please reach out through the contact details provided in the app or on this website.
