Privacy Policy for Cryptic - Password Generator
Effective Date: April 01, 2025
Welcome to Cryptic - Password Generator ("Cryptic," "we," "us," or "our"), an Android application designed to help you create strong, secure passwords to protect your digital life. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use Cryptic on your Android device. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about our practices.
By downloading, installing, or using Cryptic, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the app. We may update this policy from time to time, and the latest version will be available within the app or on our website at https://thekrayknot.com/privacypolicy_cryptic.html. We encourage you to review it periodically.
1. Who We Are
Cryptic - Password Generator is developed by Krayknot Labs, a sole proprietorship based in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. We are responsible for managing any data related to your use of Cryptic as outlined in this Privacy Policy. For questions or concerns, please contact us at:
- Email: krayknot@gmail.com
2. Information We Collect
Cryptic is designed to prioritize your privacy. It operates as an offline tool, generating passwords locally on your Android device without requiring an internet connection or collecting personal data by default. Below, we outline the limited circumstances under which information may be involved:
2.1 Information You Provide Directly
- Generated Passwords: Cryptic does not store or transmit the passwords you generate. It totally depends on the user to store the information locally inside Cryptic, which is a beneficial optional feature. You may choose to copy passwords to your device’s clipboard or save them outside the app (e.g., in a note or file), but this is entirely at your discretion. Any such data remains local to your device and is not shared with us.
- User Feedback: If you contact us directly (e.g., via email) to provide feedback, report a bug, or request support, we may collect your email address, name (if provided), and any other details you voluntarily share.
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
- We do not collect any information automatically. Cryptic does not use analytics, tracking tools, or crash reporting services that would gather usage data, device information, or other metrics.
2.3 Information We Do Not Collect
- Personal Identifiers: We do not collect your name, phone number, email address, location, or other personal details unless you provide them through feedback.
- Device Data: We do not access your device’s contacts, camera, microphone, storage, or other features beyond what is necessary for core functionality (e.g., clipboard access, if used).
- Network Data: Since Cryptic operates offline, we do not collect IP addresses or other internet-related information.
3. How We Use Your Information
Since Cryptic is an offline password generator, we do not process or use your data beyond what occurs locally on your device. Specifically:
- Password Generation: The app generates passwords for your use, and any interaction with those passwords (e.g., copying to clipboard) is managed by you.
- Feedback: If you send us feedback, we use your provided information solely to respond to you or improve the app.
We do not use your information for advertising, analytics, or any other purpose beyond providing Cryptic’s core functionality and support.
4. Data Storage and Security
4.1 Where Data Is Stored
- Local Storage: Cryptic does not store passwords within the app unless you explicitly save them in the Cryptic's local db or elsewhere on your device (e.g., via clipboard or manual export). Any data you create remains on your Android device under your control.
- Clipboard Feature: If you copy a password to your device’s clipboard, it is temporarily stored there by your Android system, not by Cryptic. This data is managed by your device and may be overwritten by subsequent clipboard actions.
4.2 Security Measures
- We do not store or transmit your data, it only depends on the user to save their information inside Cryptic, which they have generated, so no server-side security measures apply. The security of any passwords you generate or copy depends on your device’s protections, although Cryptic encrypts the information it stores in local db as well, but security of information is not full proof as it is stored at device level. (e.g., screen lock, encryption). We recommend using strong device security practices to safeguard your information.
5. Third-Party Services
Cryptic does not integrate with third-party services for password generation or any core functionality. It operates entirely offline without requiring internet access. However:
- Google Play Services: The app is distributed via the Google Play Store, which may involve Google Play Services for installation and updates. This is managed by Google, not us, and is subject to their privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy).
We do not use analytics, cloud storage, or other third-party tools that would involve sharing your data.
6. International Users
Cryptic is available globally and hosted on the Google Play Store. Since it operates offline and does not transmit data to us, no international data transfers occur. If you provide feedback from outside India, your email (if shared) may be processed in India, subject to local laws.
7. Your Choices and Rights
- Clipboard Control: You decide whether to copy passwords to your clipboard or save them elsewhere. Cryptic does not retain this data.
- Feedback: You may choose to contact us anonymously or withhold personal details.
- Data Deletion: Since Cryptic stores no data within the app, uninstalling it from your device removes all traces of its use, except for any passwords you manually saved elsewhere.
If you are in a region with specific privacy laws (e.g., GDPR in the EEA, CCPA in California), you have rights like access or deletion. However, as we collect no personal data by default, these rights primarily apply to feedback you’ve shared. Contact us at krayknot@gmail.com to exercise them.
8. Children’s Privacy
Cryptic is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we receive feedback indicating a child under 13 has contacted us, we will delete it promptly. Contact us if you believe this has occurred.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in Cryptic’s functionality or legal requirements. Significant updates will be noted via an in-app message or on our website. The “Effective Date” at the top will indicate the latest version. Continued use of Cryptic after updates signifies your acceptance.
10. Contact Us
For questions, concerns, or requests about this Privacy Policy or Cryptic, please reach out to:
- Email: krayknot@gmail.com
We aim to respond within 30 days, though we strive to address inquiries sooner.
11. Compliance with Google Play Requirements
Cryptic complies with Google Play’s policies, including providing this Privacy Policy for transparency, even though it handles minimal user data. This policy is accessible within the app and on our Google Play Store listing.
This Privacy Policy is designed to be transparent, user-friendly, and compliant with applicable laws. Thank you for trusting Cryptic - Password Generator to help secure your digital life!
