Privacy Policy for SoftVault

This Privacy Policy describes how SoftVault currently handles user data, permissions, and future advertising changes. It is written to support Google Play listing needs and to reflect the app's current feature set.

No account required The current version does not require sign-up before using core features.
Camera is used for scanning Camera access is requested so the app can read barcode labels.
Future ads will be disclosed If AdMob is added later, this policy and Google Play data disclosures will be updated.

1. Overview

SoftVault is an Android app that helps users create barcode labels for real-world storage spaces and reopen those spaces later by barcode scan or manual code entry. The current version is focused on storage organization and does not require user account registration.

2. Information the app handles

SoftVault may handle information that you choose to enter into the app, such as storage space names, zones, categories, quantities, notes, barcode labels, and stored item details. This information is used to provide the app's core organization features.

  • Storage space details you create inside the app
  • Item names, categories, quantities, and notes you add to a space
  • Barcode values used to reopen a space
  • Language preference or similar local app settings

3. Camera permission

SoftVault requests camera permission to scan barcode labels. The camera is used to support the barcode scanning feature only. If you do not grant camera permission, you can still use manual code entry for supported flows.

4. Local device processing

The current SoftVault experience is designed around on-device use. The app's core space management flow is not based on a developer-operated cloud account system. Barcode recognition in the current app build is intended to support local scanning within the app experience.

5. Sharing and exported content

SoftVault can let you save or share barcode cards when you choose to do so. If you export an image or share content through Android's share sheet, that action is initiated by you. Once content is shared to another app or service, that third party's privacy practices will apply.

6. Third-party services in the current release

Based on the current app implementation, SoftVault does not include a user account backend operated by the developer. The current release is also not presented as an ad-supported release at this time. If that changes in a future version, this Privacy Policy will be updated before or at the time of rollout.

7. Data retention and deletion

Because the current app flow is centered on device-side use, you can generally manage your app information directly on your device. If you want to remove app data, you may delete content in the app, clear app data through Android settings where available, uninstall the app, and delete any exported files that were saved outside the app.

8. Children's privacy

SoftVault is a utility app for storage organization and is not specifically directed to children. If you believe a child has provided information in a way that requires attention, please contact us.

9. Security

We aim to limit data handling to what is necessary for the app's features. However, no software environment can be guaranteed to be perfectly secure, and you should use reasonable care when storing or sharing sensitive information through any device or application.

10. Future AdMob advertising notice

SoftVault may add Google AdMob advertising in a future release. If AdMob is introduced later, this Privacy Policy will be updated to explain the relevant advertising, consent, and data-handling details before or when that version becomes available. Future updates may also require corresponding changes to the Google Play Data safety section and user consent messaging where applicable.

11. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect product improvements, compliance needs, or service changes. The latest version should always be reviewed together with the current app release.

12. Contact
