Your data are stored only locally on your device and all data stats are done on your device as well. You can optionally synchronize your data to Apple iCloud (iOS) or to Google Drive (Android). Your backups are stored in your private cloud space and we don’t have access to your backup files. Only you have access to and control them.

We recommend that our users backup their data regularly. Our users can manually export their backup file and store anywhere they want. They also can choose to make cloud backups that are kept in the user's private cloud space where we do not have access to.

Android Google Drive Backups

Android users can optionally backup their data through their private Google account. Therefore, their backups are stored in their Google Drive free space.

We safely connect our user's Google Account and data is stored where we or other apps have access with the permission. View Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

The Google email and user name are requested to recognize the user's account and backup their own data into their private Google Drive. The email address and name will not be collected with Analytics data.

iOS iCloud Backups

iOS users can optionally backup their data through Apple services. Their backups are securely stored in their own iCloud free space.

iCloud secures our user's information by encrypting it when it’s in transit, storing it in an encrypted format, and securing their encryption keys in Apple data centers. Apple uses end-to-end encryption for additional privacy and security. This means that only user can decrypt and access their own information, and only on their devices where already signed in with their Apple ID.
