Privacy Policy

Effective date: July 15, 2025

This privacy policy describes how Qlear (referred to as the "Application") handles user information. Qlear is a personal task management app developed and maintained by Alfon Labadan ("Service Provider").

Information Collection and Use

The Qlear app operates with minimal data collection. For core app functionality, all user-generated data such as your to-do lists are stored only locally on your device and are not accessed, collected, or transmitted by the Service Provider.

However, when you use our donation or subscription features through Google Play Billing, certain information may be processed as described below.

Payment and Donation Information

When you make a donation or purchase a subscription through Google Play Billing, we may receive:

  • Purchase confirmation and transaction details
  • Subscription status information (active, expired, cancelled)
  • Purchase tokens for verification purposes
  • Google Play account identifier (not your personal Google account information)

We do not receive or store your payment card details, billing address, or other sensitive payment information. All payment processing is handled securely by Google Play Billing.

Google Play Billing Integration

Our app integrates with Google Play Billing API to process donations and subscriptions. When you make a purchase:

  • Payment processing is handled entirely by Google Play
  • We receive only purchase verification data necessary to unlock app features
  • Your payment information remains with Google and is governed by Google's Privacy Policy
  • We may store purchase tokens locally on your device for offline verification

For more information about how Google handles your payment data, please review Google's Privacy Policy and Google Play Terms of Service.

Third-Party Access

Your core app data (to-do lists, tasks) remains private and is not shared with any third parties, including Google. Purchase verification data is only shared with Google Play Billing as necessary to validate transactions and manage subscriptions.

Data Retention Policy

Core app data (your to-do lists) is stored locally on your device and managed solely by you. Purchase-related data is handled as follows:

  • Purchase tokens: Stored locally on your device until app is uninstalled
  • Subscription status: Verified with Google Play in real-time, not permanently stored
  • Transaction records: Maintained by Google Play according to their retention policies

Your Rights

Regarding your purchase and subscription data:

  • You can manage your subscriptions through your Google Play account
  • You can request refunds according to Google Play's refund policy
  • You can cancel subscriptions at any time through Google Play
  • Purchase history is available in your Google Play account

For questions about payment data, billing, or refunds, please contact Google Play support or manage your purchases through your Google Play account.

Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly process purchases from children under the age of 13 without parental consent. Google Play has its own policies regarding purchases by minors. We encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children's app purchases and use Google Play's parental controls.

Security

Purchase verification data stored locally on your device is subject to your device's security measures. All payment processing security is handled by Google Play Billing, which maintains industry-standard security practices. Your locally stored app data remains subject to the security measures of your mobile device.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the effective date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.

By using the Application and its payment features, you are consenting to this Privacy Policy and the processing of purchase verification data as described herein. You are also subject to Google Play's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy for payment processing.
