TankRoutinePrivacy policy
About this policy
TankRoutine is an aquarium care application provided under the developer name Umay Software. This policy describes data used by the Android app. You do not need an account to keep care records.
Care records on your device
Aquarium profiles, water-change and filter-care history, water readings and livestock entries are stored in the app’s local database. Language and appearance preferences are stored locally. We do not operate a server for these records, and do not send them in ad requests. The app does not provide cloud synchronisation or data export.
System backups
Depending on your phone and Android settings, the operating system may back up or transfer app records and preferences. These processes are managed by Android or your device provider, rather than a TankRoutine cloud service. Review your phone’s backup settings to control these copies.
Google AdMob and advertising
The app uses Google AdMob and Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP). For advertising, measurement and fraud prevention, the ads SDK can collect and share IP addresses (which can indicate approximate location), interactions, diagnostics and device/account identifiers, including advertising IDs. Ads can use an internet connection. Processing depends on device settings, region and applicable privacy choices.
Your advertising choices
When available, open Settings → Ad privacy options to review the choices offered by Google. You can also use Android’s advertising-ID controls. Disabling personalisation does not necessarily stop all ad-related processing. Google explains its practices at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Permissions and security
Notification permission enables local maintenance reminders; refusing permission does not prevent record keeping. The app does not request camera, microphone, contacts or precise-location permissions. Local records use Android’s app storage protections; the database is not separately encrypted by TankRoutine. Google states that its ads SDK encrypts data in transit using TLS. Protect access to your device.
Retention and deletion
You can delete individual records in the app or remove all local app data using Android settings. Uninstalling the app can remove local records. Operating-system backups and data held by Google are subject to their own settings and policies; removing local records does not itself erase those copies. We cannot remotely access or delete your device database.
Support messages and requests
If you email us, your email address and message are used to respond and handle your request. We retain support correspondence only as long as needed for that purpose or applicable obligations. For privacy questions or applicable access, correction or deletion requests concerning support correspondence, contact the email address below. Do not email aquarium records unless you want to share them for support.
Changes and contact
The date above identifies the latest revision. We update this policy when the app’s data practices change. Contact Umay Software at d.mertcetinkaya@gmail.com for privacy questions, including concerns about children’s personal data.
