Please note that this app does not collect or obtain personal data such as location information, photos, videos, or audio.

As a result, the following information may be collected automatically:

  • App usage data (such as basic interaction logs)

This app does not use any custom logging in Firebase Analytics.
The information collected is limited to that provided by Firebase’s standard features.
For details on the information collected through these standard features, please refer to the privacy policy of Google LLC.

The collected information is transmitted to servers provided by Google LLC through Firebase.

Purpose of Using Analytics and Crash Reporting Data

This information is used to improve service quality and detect issues.

(2) Information obtained through permissions (processed locally on the device)

This app uses the Usage Access permission (PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS), with the user’s consent, to obtain the package name of the app currently in use in the foreground.
The information obtained through this permission is limited to the minimum necessary to identify the app currently in use in the foreground.

It is not used to collect or analyze user actions, input content, or personal information.

This app periodically obtains such information to determine the status of the foreground app; however, the information is used solely for real-time status determination.
The obtained information is neither stored nor accumulated. It is processed only on the device and is not transmitted to external servers or provided to any third parties.

Purpose of Using Information Obtained Through Permissions

This information is used to identify the app currently in use and to apply or exclude, as appropriate, the blocking feature of the rotation suggestion button displayed on the navigation bar.

In addition, for information collected through Firebase, it may not be possible to identify and delete data related to a specific user.
