1. Overview
UniSorted our app is a timetable management application designed specifically for students. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our mobile application.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices. By using UniSorted, you agree to the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy.
2. Information We Collect
UniSorted is designed as an offline-first application. Your privacy is our priority.
Information You Provide
When you use UniSorted, you may enter the following types of information, which is stored locally on your device:
- Timetable Data: Class schedules, session times, locations, and subject names
- Notes: Personal notes and reminders attached to your sessions
- Links: Web URLs you save for reference
- File Attachments: Documents, PDFs, or images you attach to sessions
- Preferences: App settings such as notification timing and theme preferences
Information We Do NOT Collect
- Personal identification information (name, email, phone number)
- Location data or GPS coordinates
- Device identifiers or advertising IDs
- Usage analytics or behavioral data
- Contacts, camera access, or microphone access
3. How Your Data is Stored
All data you enter into UniSorted is stored exclusively on your device using Android's private app storage. This means:
- Local Storage Only: Your data never leaves your device
- No Cloud Sync: We do not upload or backup your data to any servers
- App-Private Storage: Data is stored in a protected area that other apps cannot access
- Device-Bound: If you uninstall the app or reset your device, your data will be deleted
4. How We Use Your Information
The data you enter is used solely to provide the app's core functionality:
- Display Timetable: Show your class schedule organized by day and time
- Send Notifications: Remind you before upcoming sessions (based on your preferences)
- Store Attachments: Keep your notes, links, and files accessible within the app
- Apply Preferences: Remember your theme choice and notification settings
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, analytics, or any purpose other than providing app functionality.
5. App Permissions Explained
UniSorted requests only the permissions necessary for its functionality. Here is a detailed explanation of each:
| Permission | Why We Need It |
|---|---|
| POST_NOTIFICATIONS | Required to send you reminder notifications before your classes start. You can customize the notification timing in Settings or disable notifications entirely through your device's app settings. |
| READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE | Allows you to select and attach files (like PDFs or images) from your device to your sessions. We only access files you explicitly choose. |
| SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM | Enables us to schedule precise notification reminders at exact times before your classes. This ensures you receive alerts exactly when configured. |
| RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED | Allows the app to reschedule your notification alarms after your device restarts. Without this, you would need to open the app after every reboot to restore reminders. |
You can revoke any permission at any time through your device's Settings → Apps → UniSorted → Permissions. Note that revoking certain permissions may affect app functionality.
6. Third-Party Services
UniSorted does NOT integrate with or use any third-party services, including:
- Analytics platforms (Google Analytics, Firebase Analytics, etc.)
- Advertising networks or ad SDKs
- Crash reporting services
- Social media integrations
- Cloud storage providers
- Any tracking or data aggregation services
The app operates entirely independently without any external dependencies that could collect your data.
7. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the security of your data:
- Private Storage: All data is stored in Android's private app directory, inaccessible to other apps
- No Transmission: Since data never leaves your device, there is no risk of interception during transmission
- Local Encryption: Your device's built-in encryption (if enabled) protects your data at rest
However, the security of your data also depends on your own practices:
- Use a strong screen lock (PIN, password, or biometric)
- Enable device encryption in your Android settings
- Keep your device's operating system updated
- Avoid installing apps from untrusted sources
8. Data Retention & Deletion
How Long We Keep Your Data
Your data remains on your device for as long as you have the app installed. We do not have access to or visibility into your data.
How to Delete Your Data
You have complete control over your data:
- Delete Individual Items: Remove specific notes, sessions, or attachments from within the app
- Clear App Data: Go to Settings → Apps → UniSorted → Storage → Clear Data
- Uninstall the App: Removing the app will permanently delete all associated data
- Reset to Default: Use the "Revert to Default Timetable" option in the app to clear customizations
9. Your Rights
Since all data is stored locally on your device and we do not have access to it, you inherently maintain full control over your information. You have the right to:
- Access: View all your data at any time within the app
- Modify: Edit or update any information you've entered
- Delete: Remove any or all of your data at any time
- Export: Copy information for backup purposes (manual process)
- Restrict Processing: Revoke permissions to limit app functionality
10. Children's Privacy
UniSorted is designed for students of all ages, including those under 13. Because:
- We do not collect any personal information
- All data stays on the device
- There are no accounts, registrations, or sign-ups
- There are no advertisements or in-app purchases
- There is no online functionality or social features
The app is safe for use by children. However, we recommend parental supervision for younger users to help set up their timetable and configure notifications appropriately.
11. International Users
UniSorted is available worldwide. Regardless of where you are located:
- Your data is stored locally on your device and does not cross borders
- We do not transfer, process, or store your data in any jurisdiction
- The app complies with privacy principles of GDPR, CCPA, and other major privacy regulations by design (no data collection = no compliance concerns)
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes:
- The "Last Updated" date at the top will be revised
- For significant changes, we may provide notice through an app update
- Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
