Privacy Policy

Terms and Usage
Fileora is a local-first Android file manager focused on browsing recent files, category views, search, and permission-aware access to files stored on the device without accounts, internet permission, analytics, or crash reporting.
Introduction

This Privacy Policy applies to the Fileora mobile application developed by Mikael Tenshio.

Fileora includes:

  • Onboarding and a home view for recent files and category shortcuts
  • Category-based browsing for images, videos, audio, documents, archives, and downloads
  • Search over visible local file and folder metadata
  • Permission-gated Android file access with preview-mode sample data on the web build
  • Settings, help, trash, and action-sheet interface flows for local file management

Fileora does not show account registration, cloud-sync accounts, or a developer-operated server for storing your personal files. The current Android app does not include Firebase Analytics, Crashlytics, or any developer analytics service. Fileora is centered on files already stored on your device.


Information Stored Locally

Fileora keeps app state on the device. Local or in-app data may include:

  • Onboarding, appearance, navigation, and confirmation preferences
  • Starred-file references and lightweight settings stored in shared preferences
  • A local file index, recent file lists, category counts, and storage summary data shown in the interface
  • Thumbnail cache files and temporary selection state while you use the app

This local data is used for app features and faster loading. It is not sent to Mikael Tenshio, a developer server, Firebase Analytics, Crashlytics, or any custom analytics endpoint.


File Access and Metadata

When permission is granted on Android, Fileora reads local file information to populate the interface. The app may access metadata such as:

  • File name
  • File size
  • Last modified date
  • File extension or type category
  • Folder path, absolute path, or local URI used for display and file actions

This information is used on the device so Fileora can show file lists, recent items, search results, category groupings, starred files, thumbnails, and file actions such as open, rename, copy, move, share, delete, or restore.


No Analytics or Crash Reporting

The current Android app does not include Firebase Analytics, Google Analytics, Crashlytics, or any developer-operated tracking or crash-reporting SDK.

Fileora does not send usage events, crash logs, diagnostics, file names, file contents, file paths, file metadata, or local app settings to Mikael Tenshio or a developer server.

App stores, Android, device manufacturers, device backup or transfer services, and operating systems may still process routine technical data under their own policies outside the developer's direct control.


Permissions and Device Features

The Android app Fileora currently declares:

  • MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - for all-files access on supported Android versions
  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - for Android 12 and lower read access
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - for Android 10 and lower write access
  • FileProvider support - present in the Android project for local file URI handling

The current manifest does not declare Internet, camera, microphone, contacts, precise location, SMS, call-log, or media-specific READ_MEDIA_IMAGES, READ_MEDIA_VIDEO, or READ_MEDIA_AUDIO permissions.


Data Retention and Deletion

Locally stored app data remains on the device until you clear app storage, clear browser storage where applicable, or uninstall the app.

File metadata shown in the interface is refreshed from locally accessible device sources. If a file is removed from your device outside Fileora, it may stop appearing once the list reloads.

Fileora's Android backup rules may include lightweight shared-preference data, such as onboarding state, settings, and starred-file references, in Android cloud backup or device transfer if those platform features are enabled on your device. The developer does not receive that backup data.


Children's Privacy

Fileora is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through a developer-managed account system for this app.
