Application: BBKey: Clean Minimal Launcher (com.bbkey.launcher)
Last Updated: August 18, 2026

1. Zero Tracking, Zero Data Collection

Blackspring Pvt. Ltd. built BBKey with absolute privacy and minimalism at its core.

  • No data collection: We do not collect, store, transmit, sell, or share any personal data.
  • No third-party analytics: Zero tracking SDKs, zero crash trackers, zero advertising networks.
  • On-device only: Your contacts, calendar events, tasks, notes, messages, and calls never leave your phone.
  • No tracking servers: We do not run any backend servers that record or monitor your activity.

2. Permissions Explained

BBKey requires Android system permissions strictly to execute launcher utilities and shortcuts on your device.

Permission Technical Identifier Purpose in BBKey Leaves Device?

Set Timers SET_ALARM Pass countdown timer requests directly to your system clock app. NO

3. Local Storage (Notes & Tasks)

Notes (!note) and Tasks (-task) created within BBKey are stored in an offline-only local SQLite (Room) database inside the app's sandboxed private storage. This data is never synchronized to cloud servers and is permanently deleted when the app is uninstalled.

4. Third-Party Services & Network Requests

BBKey contains no advertising SDKs and no analytical tracking libraries.

The only network requests made by the app are:

  • Weather Data: Approximate coordinates are sent to a public weather API (e.g. Open-Meteo) strictly to return temperature and forecast conditions. No user identity or tracking tokens are attached.
  • Web Search: When entering free-form text with no local match, the query is forwarded directly to your device's default web browser.

5. Data Security & User Control

You have full control over all device permissions. You can grant or revoke any permission at any time through Android Settings → Apps → BBKey → Permissions.
