Brain Dump Privacy Policy

Effective date: 18 August 2026
App: Brain Dump (com.muhtalipdede.braindump)
Contact: muhtalipdede@gmail.com

This policy describes how Brain Dump handles information on your device. The app is local-first. It does not create accounts and does not run a Brain Dump backend that receives your thoughts in this version.

1. Summary

TopicPractice
AccountsNone
Backend / cloud syncNone (MVP)
Where data is storedOn your device (Android app sandbox; Room + DataStore). Android backup is disabled for this app.
AI organizationOn-device heuristic parser. Dump text is not sent to a third-party model in this version.
Analytics / ads / crash SDKsNone
Sale of personal dataNo

2. Information the app processes

2.1 Thoughts you capture

Free-form text (and optional speech-to-text transcripts from the system recognizer) that you enter. Stored locally as brain dumps and extracted items (titles, optional dates/times you provided, types, notes).

2.2 Optional profile

Display name, language preference, and notification toggles. Stored on-device.

2.3 Notifications

If you enable them, the app schedules local reminders for items you confirmed with a time, plus optional morning/evening check-ins. Notification permission may be requested on Android 13+.

2.4 Voice

Microphone access is handled by the system speech recognizer when you tap the mic. Brain Dump does not upload raw audio to a Brain Dump server.

3. How information is used

Only to capture thoughts, organize them into actions, show Today/Inbox lists, search locally, and fire optional local notifications. No advertising. No sale of data.

AI-assisted organization is labeled in the review step. You confirm items before they become lasting actions. The parser must not invent times you did not write.

4. Third parties

None for dump text in MVP. There is no cloud AI provider compiled into the Play build. If a future version sends text to a model, this policy and Play Data Safety will be updated first, and the in-app privacy note will say so.

Google Play distributes the app. The system speech recognizer (if used) is provided by the device/OS vendor under their terms.

5. Retention and deletion

  1. Profile → Clear thoughts on this device deletes local dumps and items.
  2. Clear app storage or uninstall to remove remaining data.

Account deletion: Not applicable — Brain Dump has no accounts.

6. Children

Brain Dump is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country).

7. International / transfers

MVP processing is on-device. Brain Dump does not transfer your dumps to a Brain Dump cloud service.

8. Changes

Updates to this policy will change the effective date and, when required, the Play listing and in-app disclosure.
