Free Daily Life Planner Privacy Policy
This policy explains how Vikaranet (Pty) Ltd ("we", "us") handles information in the Free Daily Life Planner app for Android (the "app", package com.vikaranet.dailylifeplanner), a planner for tasks, goals, daily habits and a weekly and monthly calendar.
In short: your tasks, goals and habits stay on your phone. The app has no accounts and we have no server that holds your data. The app is free and shows ads from Google AdMob, and Google collects some device information to serve them.
What the app does
The app lets you plan tasks with priorities, categories, tags and due dates, set long-term goals, track daily habits and streaks, see what is due in a week or month calendar, and earn XP and levels as you complete things. It is free and supported by a banner ad and occasional full-screen ads shown when you switch between tabs.
Information the app handles
| Information | Examples | Where it is kept |
|---|---|---|
| Planner data | Tasks, due dates, tags, goals, habits and streaks, XP and level, light or dark mode | On your phone only. Android may include it in your Google device backup if you have backup turned on. |
| Backup files you export | A JSON file of your planner data | Wherever you choose to save it |
| Advertising data | Advertising ID and other device identifiers, IP address and the approximate location derived from it, device model and Android version, crash and performance diagnostics, ad interactions | Collected and processed by Google (AdMob) |
| Ad consent choice (EEA, UK, Switzerland) | Whether you allowed personalised ads | On your phone, managed by Google's consent tool |
What we do not do
- The app has no accounts, sign-in, chat or in-app purchases.
- It does not ask for your name, email, phone number, contacts, photos, camera, microphone or precise location.
- We do not run servers for the app, and we do not receive, store, sell or trade your planner data or other personal information.
How we use information
Planner data is used only on your phone so you can plan and track your day. Advertising data is used by Google to show ads, measure them and prevent fraud.
Backup and import
When you choose Export, the app saves a backup file to a place you pick, such as a folder on your phone or Google Drive. When you choose Import, the app reads only the file you pick. Backup files are under your control; once you send one to another app or person, their own rules apply.
Permissions
- Internet and network state: to load ads. The planner itself works offline.
- Advertising ID: added by the Google Mobile Ads SDK for ads. You can reset it or opt out of personalised ads in Android settings.
Third parties
- Google AdMob (Google LLC) provides the ads and processes advertising data under Google's privacy policy. See also how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
- Google Play distributes the app and may provide us with aggregated crash and performance data.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the app asks for your consent before ads use your data for personalisation. You can change your choice at any time with Ad choices in the Privacy section of the Home screen.
Where your data is stored and how we protect it
Planner data is kept in the app's private storage on your phone, which other apps cannot read. Advertising data is sent by the Google Mobile Ads SDK over encrypted connections and stored by Google, which may process it outside Botswana.
Children
The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child's information was collected, contact us.
Your rights and deleting your data
- Delete your planner data by clearing the app's storage in Android Settings or uninstalling the app. Export a backup first if you want to keep a copy.
- Reset your advertising ID or turn off personalised ads in Android Settings › Google › Ads (or Settings › Privacy › Ads).
- For data held by Google, use Google's privacy controls.
- You can also contact us with any privacy request using the details below. Depending on where you live, including under Botswana's data protection law, you may also complain to your data protection authority.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the app changes. The effective date at the top shows the latest version.
