Privacy Policy for Screen Lock
Your Privacy Matters
Screen Lock is designed with your privacy in mind. This app does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data.
Overview
Screen Lock is a simple Android utility application that provides a Quick Settings tile for instantly locking your device screen. The app operates entirely on your device without any network connectivity or data collection.

Screen Lock does not collect any data. Specifically:
- No personal information is collected
- No usage statistics are tracked

Data Storage
The app stores only minimal operational data locally on your device:

- Location: Stored in Android's standard system preferences, managed by the operating system
- No Cloud Storage: No data is ever uploaded to any server or cloud service
Permissions
Screen Lock requires the following permission to function:
-
BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN: This permission is necessary to enable the screen locking functionality. It allows the app to programmatically lock your device screen when you tap the Quick Settings tile. This is a system-level permission that requires explicit activation through Android's device administrator settings. The app cannot access any personal data through this permission - it is used exclusively for the screen lock function.

- No payment processors
- No crash reporting tools
Data Security
Since Screen Lock does not collect or transmit any data, there are no data security risks associated with using this app. The minimal operational data stored locally (device admin status) is protected by Android's standard app sandboxing security model.
Children's Privacy
Screen Lock does not collect any information from users of any age, including children under 13. The app is safe for use by individuals of all ages.
