Privacy Policy for ClapFind

Last updated: March 2, 2026

Welcome to ClapFind ("we", "our", or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application ClapFind (the "Service"), which helps users locate their mobile devices via clap detection. By accessing or using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect different types of information to provide and improve our Service to you:

• Device Information: When you use the Service, we may collect non-personally identifiable information about your device, including device model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and battery status. This data is used solely to optimize the Service's performance on your device.
• Usage Data: We may collect information about how you interact with the Service, such as the frequency of app usage, features accessed, and session duration. This data helps us understand user behavior and improve the Service's functionality.
• Permission-Based Data: The Service requires access to your device's microphone to detect claps. We do not record or store any audio data from the microphone—this data is processed locally on your device only to trigger the phone-locating functionality.
• Personal Information: We do not collect personally identifiable information (such as your name, email address, or location) unless you voluntarily provide it to us, for example, when contacting our support team.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

• To provide and maintain the ClapFind Service
• To optimize and improve the performance and functionality of the Service
• To respond to your inquiries, support requests, or feedback
• To detect and prevent technical issues with the Service
• To comply with applicable legal obligations

3. Data Storage and Security

We prioritize the security of your information. All data processed by the Service is stored locally on your device unless you choose to share information with us (e.g., support requests). We implement industry-standard security measures to protect any information you provide to us from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. However, please note that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

4. Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties without your explicit consent, except in the following limited circumstances:

• To comply with a legal obligation (e.g., responding to a court order or government request)
• To protect and defend our rights or property
• To prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service
• To protect the personal safety of users of the Service or the public

5. Third-Party Services

ClapFind may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by us. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the privacy practices or content of any third-party services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you access.

6. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will take immediate steps to delete it from our systems. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at hunkhuang1@gmail.com.

7. 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 "Last updated" date at the top of this policy. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
