OXIDESIEVE: TECHNICAL PRIVACY CHARTER & USER TERMS

I. PRIVACY CHARTER

OxideSieve is engineered as a high-precision storage utility. We provide the "sieve" to refine your device's performance, but we never retain the "residue" of your personal information.

The localized Processing Protocol

OxideSieve identifies and facilitates the removal of obsolete files, residual data logs, and system caches.

• Administrative Scope: To execute these functions, the application requires the "All Files Access" (MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) permission.
• On-Hardware Execution: Every byte of data analyzed during a cleanup cycle is processed strictly within your device’s local environment. We do not possess the server-side capability to mirror, upload, or inspect your file names, folder structures, or document contents. Your storage remains an encrypted vault to which we have no key.

Telemetry and External Service Interaction

While your personal files are never extracted, OxideSieve utilizes specific technical service layers to ensure software stability and monitor installation success.

• Firebase (Google): Employed for real-time diagnostic reporting. In the event of a software crash, a pseudonymized technical log (hardware model, OS version, and failure stack trace) is generated to assist our maintenance team.
• Attribution & Growth Platforms (e.g., Adjust, AppsFlyer): These tools identify the commercial origin of an installation. They process device-level technical identifiers such as your Advertising ID (GAID or IDFA).
• The Sieve Boundary: These partners are contractually prohibited from accessing your local file system or correlating technical signals with your real-world identity.

Legal Foundations for Data Handling

Our limited interaction with technical metadata is grounded in:

• Contractual Necessity: Local analysis of your storage environment is the core service you have engaged us to perform.
• Legitimate Interests: Utilizing pseudonymized technical IDs to prevent fraudulent activity, secure the app environment, and evaluate our global reach.

Your Sovereign Data Rights

OxideSieve recognizes your absolute authority over your digital footprint through the following rights:

• Right to Disclosure (Sharing & Selling): You have the right to know if your data is shared or sold. OxideSieve does not sell, trade, or rent your personal data. Sharing is strictly limited to the technical operational partners listed in Section 2.
• Right of Access & Rectification: You may request access to, or the correction of, any inaccurate or incomplete technical data held by our telemetry partners.
• Right to Erasure (Deletion): You can request the total deletion of your data. Deleting the app immediately purges all local scan history. For technical logs held by partners, our DPO can facilitate a purge request.
• Right to Lodge a Complaint: You are explicitly entitled to contact a regulatory authority in your jurisdiction if you believe our data handling violates legal standards.

Retention and Disposal Cycles

• Local Scan Data: Information regarding cleanup targets exists only in volatile memory during an active session and is cleared upon task completion.
• Technical Telemetry: Non-identifiable data held by third-party partners is retained for the minimum period required for aggregate performance reporting—typically 12 to 24 months—before being permanently anonymized.

Choice and Non-Participation (Opt-Out)

• Blocking Data Sale/Sharing: While we do not sell data, you can prevent technical sharing by enabling "Limit Ad Tracking" (iOS) or "Opt out of Ads Personalization" (Android) within your system settings.
• Permission Revocation: You may withdraw storage access at any time through your device settings, which will instantly terminate all application functionality.

II. END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT (EULA)

Grant of License

OxideSieve grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to use the software on a single device for your personal maintenance, subject to these terms.

Acceptable Use Restrictions

By utilizing OxideSieve, you agree not to:

• Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or derive the source code of the scanning logic.
• Use the application to intentionally interfere with system-critical files required for device stability.
• Modify, redistribute, or commercially exploit the software in any form.

Intellectual Property

The OxideSieve name, branding, and proprietary algorithms remain the exclusive property of the developer. No ownership rights are transferred to you under this license.

Disclaimer of Warranty

OxideSieve is provided "AS IS." While we strive for absolute precision, we do not warrant that the application will identify every piece of redundant data or remain entirely free from technical errors. Users are responsible for reviewing items flagged for removal before confirming deletion.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, OxideSieve and its creators shall not be liable for any accidental loss of data, performance issues, or indirect damages resulting from the use or inability to use the software.

Termination

This agreement is effective until terminated by you (via uninstallation) or by us. We reserve the right to revoke your license immediately if you violate any terms of this EULA.
