Privacy Policy for MemOpt Cleaner
Last Updated: February 6, 2026
Effective Date: February 6, 2026
MemOpt Cleaner ("we", "us", "our") operates the MemOpt Cleaner mobile application (the "App"), a lightweight tool designed to optimize device memory, clean junk files, and enhance device performance for Android users. Protecting your user data privacy and security is our top priority. This Privacy Policy details our practices for collecting, using, storing, and protecting your data, in strict compliance with the Google Play Developer Programme Policies, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), and other applicable global data protection laws. By accessing or using the App, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the terms of this Privacy Policy, including our data protection practices.
1. Core Commitments to Data Protection
We adhere to the principles of data minimization, local processing, and zero unauthorized data sharing—core commitments that guide all our data handling practices to protect your privacy[1][2]:
- Data Minimization: We only access the minimum non-personal, device-specific data necessary for the App’s core memory optimization and junk cleaning functions. We never collect personal identifiable information (PII) or sensitive user data beyond what is required[1].
- 100% Local Processing: All data scanning, memory optimization, and junk cleaning operations are completed exclusively on your local device. There is no cloud upload, no server-side data retention, and no background data transmission—your data remains fully under your control at all times[1][3].
- Zero Unauthorized Sharing/Sale: We never sell, rent, disclose, or transfer any user data (personal or non-personal) to third parties for commercial gain or any other unauthorized purpose. No third party has access to the data processed by the App[1][2].
- Transparent Permissions: We only request essential device permissions required for the App’s core functions, clearly disclose the purpose of each permission, and allow you to grant or revoke permissions at any time without affecting the use of other non-dependent features[1][3].
- Strict Compliance: All our data processing activities align with Google Play’s User Data Policy and global data protection regulations, with regular security updates to ensure ongoing compliance[1][4].
2. Data Collection: Minimal, Local, and Non-Personal
MemOpt Cleaner does not collect, store, or transmit any personal identifiable information (PII) or sensitive user data (e.g., name, contact information, location, call logs, biometrics, or personal media content)[1][2]. The only data the App accesses is non-personal, device-specific metadata processed locally to deliver its core memory optimization and cleaning functions—this data is never collected or retained on our servers[1][3]:
- Device Memory & Storage Metadata: File names, sizes, modification dates, and file paths of junk files, cached data, residual app files, and unused background processes. This data is used solely to identify and help you safely delete unnecessary files or end redundant processes, freeing up device memory and storage—we never access, view, or modify your personal files (photos, videos, documents, etc.)[1].
- Basic Device System Information: Device operating system version, memory capacity, storage space, and basic hardware specifications. This data is used exclusively to ensure the App’s compatibility with your device, verify the normal operation of core optimization functions, and deliver targeted performance improvements—no data is recorded or retained beyond the duration of the App’s use[1][4].
- Local App Usage Data: Temporary records of optimization operations (e.g., memory freed, junk files deleted) and App settings preferences. This data is stored only on your local device to enhance your user experience (e.g., remembering your optimization preferences) and is automatically deleted when you uninstall the App[1][3].
3. Permission Usage: Essential Only, Full User Control
We only request the minimum necessary device permissions to perform the App’s core memory optimization and cleaning functions, in strict compliance with Google Play’s permission policies and Android’s runtime permission request mechanism[1][3]. All permissions are used solely for the disclosed legitimate purposes, and you retain full control over whether to grant or revoke permissions at any time:
- READ_MEDIA_IMAGES & READ_MEDIA_VIDEO (if applicable): These permissions are required solely to scan and detect junk cache, residual files, and redundant media cache files in your device’s image and video folders for safe cleaning. They are never used to access, view, modify, or share your actual photo or video content[1].
- Storage Access (for Android versions below 13): This permission is used to scan and clean junk files, cached data, and residual files across your device’s storage (excluding personal media content). It is strictly limited to the App’s core cleaning functionality[1][3].
- App Information & Background Process Access: This permission is used to identify unused apps, redundant background processes, and their associated residual data, allowing the App to optimize device memory by ending unnecessary processes and providing optional app cleanup suggestions. All optimization actions require your explicit manual approval[1].
- You can manage all App permissions at any time via your device’s settings (Android Settings > Apps > MemOpt Cleaner > Permissions). Revoking a permission may affect the normal operation of the corresponding core function but will not result in any data collection or processing by the App[1][3].
4. Data Use: Strictly Limited to Core Functions
Since all data processed by MemOpt Cleaner is non-personal and local, our use of this data is strictly limited to delivering the App’s core memory optimization and cleaning features—no secondary use, no data analytics for advertising, and no unauthorized processing[1][2]:
- Scan and analyze device memory and storage metadata to identify unnecessary junk files, cached data, and redundant background processes;
- Provide you with a clear, transparent list of scannable items, allowing you to manually select and confirm the content to be cleaned or processes to be ended (the App never deletes data or ends processes automatically without your explicit approval);
- Optimize your device’s performance by freeing up memory and storage space, with all operations initiated and fully controlled by you;
- Verify device compatibility and resolve technical issues to ensure the App works smoothly with your device’s OS version—no data is recorded or retained for these purposes[1][4].
5. Data Storage & Security
We take all reasonable and industry-standard technical and organizational security measures to protect the local data processed by the App, ensuring that your data is not subject to unauthorized access, tampering, leakage, or destruction[1][2]:
- No Cloud Storage or Server Retention: All data processed by the App remains exclusively on your local device. We have no access to, control over, or storage of your data on any external servers or cloud platforms, eliminating the risk of server-side data breaches[1][3];
- No Background Data Transmission: The App has no background data transmission functionality. All data processing activities are limited to your local device and are initiated only when you actively use the App’s core functions[1][3];
- Local Data Encryption: Temporary data processed by the App (e.g., optimization records, user preferences) is encrypted using industry-standard encryption technology to prevent unauthorized access or tampering by third parties on your device[1][2];
- Regular Security Updates: We release timely security updates to address potential vulnerabilities, optimize local data protection, and ensure compatibility with the latest Android system versions[1][4];
- Strict Internal Access Control: Our development and operation team has no access to any user device data. All App development processes follow strict data security protocols, and we conduct regular security audits to ensure compliance[1][2].
- You are responsible for protecting the physical security of your device (e.g., setting a passcode, enabling biometric authentication) to prevent unauthorized physical access to your device and the App’s local data processing functions[1][3].
6. Data Sharing & Disclosure
We strictly prohibit the sharing, renting, disclosing, transferring, or selling of any user data (personal or non-personal) to third parties, including advertisers, data brokers, analytics providers, or other commercial entities[1][2]. The only exception is when required by law: We may disclose relevant data (if any) only in response to a legally binding order from a competent government authority, court, or regulatory body. In such cases, we will take all reasonable measures to ensure compliance with applicable laws and notify you to the extent permitted[1][2].
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our assets, no user data will be transferred—since we do not collect or store any user data on our servers or cloud platforms[1][2].
7. Your Data Privacy Rights
In compliance with GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and other global data protection laws, you have full control over all data related to your use of the App, and we guarantee unobstructed exercise of your privacy rights[1][2][3]:
- Right to Refuse/Revoke Permissions: You may decline any permission request or revoke existing permissions at any time via your device’s settings[1][3];
- Right to Control Data Processing: All optimization and cleaning actions require your explicit manual approval. You have the right to select which items to clean, refuse any data processing action, or reset your App preferences[1];
- Right to Delete All App-Related Data: You may delete all local App data (e.g., optimization records, preferences) at any time by uninstalling the App. Uninstalling the App will permanently delete all associated data, with no residual data left on your device[1][3];
- Right to Inquire: You have the right to inquire about our data processing practices, and we will provide a clear, detailed response within a reasonable timeframe[1][2];
- Right to Complain: If you believe your privacy rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority in your jurisdiction[1][2].
8. Third-Party SDKs
The App only integrates minimal, necessary third-party SDKs (e.g., for crash reporting or performance monitoring) to ensure core functionality[1][4]. All SDKs undergo strict compliance audits, and we sign formal data processing agreements with providers, requiring them to disable all data collection, tracking, and transmission functions unrelated to their core service. No third-party SDK can access, collect, or transmit any user data through the App[1][2].
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in Google Play Policies, applicable data protection laws, or our data processing practices[1][4]. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. Major changes related to data protection will be notified to you via a prominent in-app notice prior to taking effect[1][2].
Your continued use of the App after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy[1][4].
