1. Introduction
Welcome to Calculator Bit, an application developed by TechFlyer ("we," "our," "us," or "Company"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience on our application. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and protection of your information when you use our mobile application.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By downloading, installing, or using Calculator Bit, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all the terms of this Privacy Policy.
2. About Calculator Bit
Calculator Bit is a feature-rich application designed to work entirely offline. The application does not require an internet connection to perform calculations and operates independently on your device. The only exception is for crash reporting and app analytics through Firebase Crashlytics, which helps us improve the application's stability and user experience.
3. Information We Collect
Calculator Bit collects minimal information. Here's what we collect:
3.1 Crash Reports (Firebase Crashlytics)
When the application crashes or encounters an error, we collect crash data through Firebase Crashlytics. This data includes:
- Stack traces and error logs
- Device information (device model, OS version, RAM)
- Application version and build information
- Timestamp of the crash
- Diagnostic information
Important: We do NOT collect:
- Any calculation results or input data
- Personal identifying information (name, email, phone number)
- Location data
- Contact lists or personal files
- Browsing history or usage patterns
3.2 Local Storage
Calculator Bit stores certain user preferences locally on your device, such as:
- Display preferences (themes, language settings)
- Application settings
This data is stored entirely on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.
4. How We Use Your Information
The information we collect is used solely for the following purposes:
- Improving Stability: Crash reports help us identify and fix bugs to provide a stable application
- Performance Optimization: We analyze crash data to optimize application performance
- Application Enhancement: Understanding errors helps us develop better features
- Technical Support: Crash information assists us in resolving issues reported by users
5. Firebase Crashlytics and Data Processing
Calculator Bit integrates Firebase Crashlytics, a service provided by Google LLC, to collect crash reports and improve application reliability.
5.1 Firebase Data Collection
Firebase Crashlytics automatically collects crash data, including:
- Crash stack traces

5.2 Data Security
Firebase Crashlytics data is transmitted to Google's secure servers using encrypted connections. For more information about Google's privacy practices and how they handle this data, please refer to:
5.3 Data Retention
Crash data collected by Firebase Crashlytics is retained according to Google's retention policies. Typically, this data is retained for a limited period (usually 90 days) before being automatically deleted.
6. Offline Functionality
Calculator Bit is designed to work completely offline. No internet connection is required for the core calculation functionality. The application will function fully without any network connectivity, and no data from your calculations is ever transmitted online or stored on remote servers.
7. Permissions
Calculator Bit may request the following Android permissions:
- Internet Permission: Used exclusively for Firebase Crashlytics crash reporting

These permissions are used only for the stated purposes. We do not use them to transmit any calculation data or personal information.
8. Data Sharing and Third Parties
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to any third parties. However, we do share crash data with:
- Firebase Crashlytics (Google): For crash reporting and app stability analysis
We do not share calculation results, preferences, or any other data with third parties.
9. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data:
- All data transmitted to Firebase Crashlytics is encrypted in transit
- Local storage on your device uses standard Android security mechanisms
- We do not implement unnecessary data collection practices
While we strive to protect your information, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
