Welcome to Utility Tool Box. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle user data and permissions within the app. Our priority is your privacy and device performance.

1. Information We Collect

Our app does not collect, store, or share any personal information with third parties. However, the app requests certain permissions for its features to function properly entirely on your local device:

Permission Required	Purpose & Usage
Internet Access	Used for displaying ads and updating app content.
Microphone	Used only to test microphone functionality within the app. No audio is stored or shared.
Camera	Required strictly for scanning QR codes and Barcodes.
Storage	Used for saving compressed images, generated QR codes, ZIP files, and related outputs locally.
Location (Approximate)	Used for detecting nearby devices for Wi-Fi Direct sharing functionality.
Phone (Call Permission)	Allows calling the emergency contact numbers provided by the user. No calls are made automatically.

2. App Features & Local Processing

3. Children’s Privacy

This app is designed for users aged 13 years and above (Rated for 3+ on Google Play). We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. Since all data processing happens locally, children's data is never transmitted to us.

4. Data Security

We value your trust in providing your information. Your data stays completely on your device. No data is shared with any external database, and the app is 100% safe, secure, and transparent.

5. Advertising

The app may display ads from third-party ad networks (such as Google AdMob). These networks may use cookies or advertising IDs to personalize ad content, but Utility Tool Box itself does not store, track, or use this data for personal gain.
