Ring Reminder is designed to work entirely on your device. We do not operate any servers, and we do not collect, transmit, or store any personal data ourselves.
The following information is accessed locally on your device to provide core app functionality. None of it leaves your device or is shared with us.
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Ringer mode, DND status, volume level | Detecting when your phone is silenced so alerts can be shown |
| Incoming call state | Triggering a visual pulse on the overlay when a call arrives while silenced |
| Notification categories | Detecting call-type notifications for the pulse feature (no notification content is read or stored) |
| Foreground app (Usage Stats) | Per-app suppression feature — suppressing alerts when a selected app is in use |
| App settings and preferences | Stored on your device only. Purchase status and security settings are stored using AES-256 encrypted storage (Android EncryptedSharedPreferences). |
| Trial start date | Stored locally to determine your 7-day free trial status |
Ring Reminder offers an optional one-time Pro upgrade via Google Play Billing. All payment processing is handled entirely by Google. We do not receive, process, or store any payment card details or billing information. Google's privacy policy applies to that transaction: https://policies.google.com/privacy
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
| Draw over other apps | Display the alert overlay on your screen |
| Do Not Disturb access | Detect DND state and optionally unmute |
| Notification access | Detect call-type notifications for the pulse feature |
| App usage access | Per-app suppression (optional Pro feature) |
| Receive boot completed | Restart the monitoring service after a reboot |
| Battery optimisation exemption | Keep the background service running reliably |
Ring Reminder does not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising, or crash-reporting SDKs. The only third-party component is Google Play Billing, covered above.
All Ring Reminder data is stored solely on your device. Uninstalling the app removes all stored preferences and settings automatically. There is no account or server-side data to delete.
Ring Reminder is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children.
If we make material changes to this policy we will update the effective date above. The current policy is always available at www.thecrazycat.com/RingReminder/privacy.html
