FetcherBee

Privacy Policy

Effective 3 October 2026

Who we are

FetcherBee is a download manager and browser app for Android. This policy explains what information the app handles and why. If you have questions, email precious.droidapps@gmail.com.

Information that stays on your phone

These are stored only on your device. We don't receive them, and they're deleted when you uninstall the app:

• Your downloads: the files, their addresses (links), names, sizes and progress.
• Browsing data: tabs, history, cookies, cache and site data of the built-in browser. You choose how long history is kept, and you can clear browsing data in Settings at any time.
• Settings: your preferences, such as download folder, connections, search engine and schedules.

To find the video or song you're playing, FetcherBee's browser looks at the pages you open and the media they play. This happens entirely on your phone; it is never sent to us.

Information collected to keep the app working

Crash reports: Firebase Crashlytics

If FetcherBee crashes or hits a serious error, a report is sent to Firebase Crashlytics (a Google service) so we can find and fix the problem. A report contains:

• Details of the error (the stack trace) and the state of the app when it happened
• Device model, Android version, app version, available memory and storage, orientation
• A random installation identifier (a Crashlytics installation UUID), used to count how many people a crash affects

Crash reports don't include the files you download, the links you open or the content of the pages you visit.

Usage statistics: Google Analytics for Firebase

FetcherBee uses Google Analytics for Firebase to understand how the app is used, for example how many people use it, which features are used, and whether downloads succeed, so we can improve it. It collects:

• App events, such as opening the app, starting or finishing a download, and using a feature
• A random app-instance identifier and installation identifier
• Device information: model, Android version, language, screen size, app version
• Approximate location (country or region) derived from your IP address; your IP address itself is not stored by Google Analytics
• Session information, such as how long the app is used

We don't send the names, addresses or contents of your downloads, or the sites you visit, to Analytics. FetcherBee doesn't use the Android advertising ID and doesn't use Analytics data for advertising.

Purchases: Google Play

If you buy something in FetcherBee, the purchase is handled by Google Play. We receive a confirmation of the purchase (what was bought, an order identifier and its status) so the app can unlock it. We never receive your payment card or billing details. Google's handling of purchases is covered by the Google Payments Privacy Notice.

How information is used and shared

Google processes this data on our behalf under the Firebase data processing terms and the Google Privacy Policy. See also Privacy and security in Firebase. Data may be processed in countries other than yours, including the United States.

We don't sell your personal information. We share it only as described here, or when the law requires it.

Websites you visit

FetcherBee's browser connects directly to the websites you open, and downloads come directly from the sites that host them. Those sites can see your IP address and may set cookies or collect information under their own privacy policies. The built-in ad blocker can reduce tracking by advertisers. Please download only content you have the right to save.

Using FetcherBee responsibly

Just a reminder to use this download manager responsibly! Make sure you only download files, media, or videos that you have explicit permission to save or that are in the public domain.

Please note that while this download manager is a helpful tool for managing files, users must comply with copyright laws and the Terms of Service of individual websites. Only download content you are legally authorized to access.

Permissions the app asks for

• Internet and network state: to browse and download
• Notifications: to show download progress and finished downloads
• Run in the foreground and keep the phone awake: so downloads continue with the screen off; held only while something downloads
• Alarms and start on boot: to start scheduled downloads on time
• Google Play billing: for in-app purchases
• Storage (older Android versions only): to save files in your Download folder

Your choices

• Clear FetcherBee's browsing data, history and downloads list in the app at any time.
• Uninstalling FetcherBee removes everything it stored on your phone (downloaded files stay in your Download folder unless you delete them).
• You can ask us to delete crash reports and usage statistics linked to your installation: email us with the app version and the date, and we'll delete them where we can identify them.
• Depending on where you live (for example the EU, UK or California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of your data. Email us to use them.

Children

FetcherBee is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country), and we don't knowingly collect their information. If you believe a child has provided information through the app, contact us and we'll delete it.

Security

Data sent to Firebase is encrypted in transit. Information on your phone is protected by Android's app sandbox.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we'll update this page and its effective date, and tell you in the app if the change is significant.
