Standly privacy policy
The short version
Most of what Standly reads stays on your phone. The only things that leave it are a rounded location or a city name (for weather), purchase details handled by Google Play, and usage statistics if you agree. We do not sell your data, and Standly has no ads and no accounts.
Who is responsible
Akash Gadekar, trading as Synthetic Minds. Contact: hello@syntheticminds.in.
What stays on your phone
These are read or stored on your phone and are never sent to us:
- Your photos, shown on the Photos page.
- Your calendar events, shown in the calendar and Today's events widgets.
- Notification information and music controls, if you switch on notification access. The text of messages is shown only if you turn that option on.
- Your to-do items, settings and chosen clock style.
- Your precise location, used only to show a neighbourhood name (your phone's own place-name service may be involved).
What is sent, and to whom
- Weather. To show weather, Standly sends a rounded position (about 10 km) or the city name you search for to our weather server (weather.syntheticminds.in), which runs on Cloudflare. The server asks WeatherAPI.com for the forecast and returns it. Our server does not store or log your requests. Cloudflare sees your IP address while it answers, as any web server does, and counts requests per address for a short time to stop abuse. WeatherAPI.com receives the rounded position, not your IP address or identity.
- Payments. Purchases are handled by Google Play. We receive your purchase status from Google, not your payment details.
- Usage statistics (only if you agree). In the first-run walkthrough or in About you can allow Firebase Analytics (Google). If you do, Standly records how features are used and basic device information. It never records your photos, calendar, to-do text, notification text or place. It does not use the advertising ID. You can switch it off in About at any time.
Location
Standly reads your location only while the app is open, never in the background. Choosing a city by name needs no location permission at all.
Backups
Your phone's own backup feature may include Standly's settings and to-do items, depending on your phone's settings. We do not receive these backups.
Keeping and deleting data
We hold no personal data about you, so there is nothing for us to delete. Standly's data on your phone is removed when you clear its storage or uninstall it. Purchase records are kept by Google Play.
Children
Standly is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
Security
Standly connects to the internet only over secure (https) connections.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the date at the top and, for material changes, tell you in the app.
Contact
hello@syntheticminds.in. You may also have rights under your local data protection law, such as access and deletion; since we hold no personal data about you, we will tell you so if you ask.
