Privacy Policy for GenKeyz
Effective date: [October 30, 2025]
1. Introduction
GenKeyz (“we”, “us”, “the App”) provides a local, offline password manager. We are committed to your privacy. This policy explains what information GenKeyz collects, how it is used, and your choices.
2. Summary (short)
- Data collection: GenKeyz collects no account information or remote data. All passwords and settings are stored locally on your device.
- Biometric usage: GenKeyz uses device biometric authentication APIs to unlock the vault. Biometric data never leaves your device and is not stored by the app.
- No telemetry: By default, we do not collect analytics, crash reports, or telemetry.
- Optional export: You may optionally export encrypted backups; if you choose to upload or store backups externally, that storage is your responsibility.
3. Data We Collect & Process
a) Passwords, notes, history, and settings — stored locally and encrypted on the device. The app does not send or sync this data to any server.
b) Biometric authentication — We integrate with your device’s biometric APIs (Android BiometricPrompt). We do not store biometric templates or data. The biometric check is handled by the operating system.
c) Optional local database of weak passwords — included in the app for offline leak checks (a local dataset of 5,000+ weak / leaked passwords). This database is bundled with the app and does not contain user data.
d) Optional exported backups — if you export a backup, you control where it is stored (e.g., cloud storage). Backups are encrypted; we recommend storing them securely.
4. How Data Is Stored & Secured
- Data is stored locally using strong encryption (AES-256 or equivalent).
- Vault unlock is tied to device authentication (biometric or device PIN).
- We recommend enabling device encryption and secure screen lock for extra protection.
- If you uninstall the app, local data is deleted (unless you exported backups). This is irreversible.
5. Permissions
GenKeyz may request permissions necessary for its operation:
- Biometric / Authentication: Required for biometric unlock (handled through system APIs).
- Storage / Files (optional): Only if you export or import backups. We do not access storage unless you initiate a backup/export/import.
6. No Third-Party Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal data off your device. The app does not upload your passwords to third-party servers.
7. Analytics & Crash Reporting
By default, GenKeyz does not collect analytics or crash reports. If we introduce optional analytics in future releases, we will require explicit user consent and clearly state what is collected.
8. Children
GenKeyz is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you are a parent and believe your child provided us personal data, contact us to request deletion.
9. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this policy for legal or operational reasons. If we make material changes, we will post the updated policy and update the effective date.
