Privacy Policy for Storage Cleaner Phone Cleaner
Last updated: April 15, 2026
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Storage Cleaner Phone Cleaner ("we", "us", "our", or "the app"),
developed by Mentapp, collects, uses, and shares information when you use our Android
application (including any related services and features).
By using Storage Cleaner Phone Cleaner, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information You Provide
- Account or Profile Data (if applicable): such as a username, email address, or profile information you submit within the app.
- User Content (if applicable): content you create, upload, or store in the app (e.g., notes, files, images, settings, preferences).
- Support Requests: information you provide when contacting support (e.g., message content and diagnostic details you share).
2.2 Automatically Collected Information
- Device Information: device model, operating system version, language, and identifiers such as an advertising ID (where available).
- App Usage Data: interactions with app features, in-app events, pages/screens viewed, and approximate time spent.
- Diagnostics: crash logs, error reports, and performance data.
- Network Information: connection type (Wi-Fi/mobile) and basic network diagnostics.
- Advertising Data: if the app shows ads, advertising services may process data such as advertising ID, device identifiers, IP address, and ad interaction data to deliver and measure ads, subject to applicable consent and device settings.
2.3 Photos and Videos Data (if you use media cleaning tools)
If you use the app's media cleaning features, we may access photos and videos stored on your device so the app
can scan for duplicate photos, similar photos, screenshots, large photos, large videos, and selected videos
that you choose to compress.
Photo and video processing is performed on your device to provide these cleanup features. We do not upload,
transmit, or send your photos or videos to our servers or to any remote server for these media cleaning features.
2.4 Contacts Data (if you use contact cleaning tools)
If you use the app's contact cleaning features, we may access contact information stored on your device,
such as contact names, phone numbers, and email addresses, so the app can detect duplicate contacts,
incomplete contacts, and contacts without a phone number.
This contact data is used only to provide the contact management features you choose to use, such as
reviewing, merging, or deleting contacts. Contact processing is performed on your device. We do not upload,
transmit, or send your contacts data to our servers or to any remote server for these contact cleaning features.
2.5 Permissions
Depending on the features you use, Storage Cleaner Phone Cleaner may request access to certain device permissions
(for example: camera, photos/media, microphone, storage, location, notifications, Bluetooth, or internet).
We request permissions only when needed for a feature, and you can control permissions in your device settings.
- Photos and Videos (`READ_MEDIA_IMAGES`, `READ_MEDIA_VIDEO`, `READ_MEDIA_VISUAL_USER_SELECTED`, and on older Android versions `READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE`): required to scan your device library for duplicate photos, similar photos, screenshots, large photos, and large videos, and to let you select videos for compression. These permissions are used only to provide the media cleanup tools you choose to use, and your photos and videos are processed on your device rather than uploaded to our servers.
- Contacts (`READ_CONTACTS` and `WRITE_CONTACTS`): required to scan your address book for duplicate contacts, incomplete contacts, and contacts without a phone number.
READ_CONTACTS lets the app review contact details for these cleanup tools, and WRITE_CONTACTS is needed only if you choose an action that changes your contacts, such as merging duplicate contacts or deleting selected contacts.
