1 Overview

Tasks is a simple, private to-do and reminder app that helps you stay organized. Create tasks, set due dates and repeat schedules, and get reminded at exactly the right time.

🔒 Privacy-First Design:

  • Local Storage Only - Your tasks are saved directly on your device
  • No Server Upload - We never receive or store your task content
  • No Account Needed - Start using the app right away
  • Complete Control - You manage and delete your data anytime

Free version: Supported by advertisements. Premium version: Ad-free experience with additional features (available through in-app purchase).

By using this app, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this Privacy Policy. We use trusted third-party services (Google AdMob, Firebase Analytics, and Firebase Crashlytics) for advertising, usage analytics, and crash reporting.

This information is not transmitted to us or to any server we operate, and we do not have access to it. If you uninstall the app or clear its data, this information is permanently deleted.

4 How We Use Information

Information collected by the third-party services listed above is used to:

  • Display and measure advertisements (free version)
  • Understand app usage and improve features and stability
  • Diagnose and fix crashes
  • Process optional in-app purchases

Your task and reminder content is used solely to operate the app on your device and is never uploaded, sold, or shared.

Premium users: Upgrading to premium removes all ads and stops ad-related data collection.

5 Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information.

Data collected by third-party services (AdMob, Firebase, Google Play Billing) is shared with Google in accordance with Google's privacy policy, solely for the purposes described above.

  • Google LLC (AdMob, Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics, Google Play Billing, Google Play In-App Review)
  • Apple Inc. (In-App Purchase for iOS purchases)

Your tasks are NEVER shared. Task and reminder content remains exclusively on your device. We have no access to it.

6 Advertising, Tracking & Your Choices

Free vs Premium Version

🆓 Free Version: Displays ads. Ad providers may personalize ads based on your interests.

💎 Premium Version: In-app purchase removes all ads permanently. No ad tracking occurs in premium version.

Personalized vs Non-Personalized Ads

In the free version, ads are displayed through Google AdMob:

  • Personalized ads: Based on your interests and activity (requires consent in EEA/UK/Switzerland)
  • Non-personalized ads: Generic ads not based on your behavior

In regions requiring consent (EEA, UK, Switzerland), Google's Consent Management Platform will ask for your permission.

iOS App Tracking Transparency (ATT)

On iOS 14.5 and later, Apple requires apps to ask permission before tracking you across other apps and websites.

  • If you grant permission: Ads may be more relevant to your interests
  • If you decline: Ads will still appear but won't be personalized
  • If you upgrade to Premium: No ads = no tracking

Change this anytime in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking

Opt-Out Controls

Android:

  • Go to Settings → Google → Ads
  • Enable "Opt out of Ads Personalization"
  • Or reset your Advertising ID

iOS:

  • Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking
  • Disable tracking for Tasks
  • Or reset your Advertising Identifier in Settings → Privacy → Apple Advertising

Google Ad Settings: Visit adssettings.google.com to manage your preferences.

Best option: Upgrade to Premium for a completely ad-free experience!

7 Data Retention and Deletion

  • Your task data: Stored locally on your device and remains until you delete it within the app, clear the app's storage, or uninstall the app
  • Analytics & crash data: Retained by Firebase/Google subject to Google's own retention policies
  • Advertising data (free version): Retained by AdMob according to Google's policies
  • Premium purchase status: Maintained as long as you use the app to keep Premium features active

You are always in control of your task data - delete individual items anytime, or remove everything by clearing the app's storage or uninstalling it.

8 Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the app:

  • Local-only storage: Your tasks are saved directly on your device - never transmitted to servers
  • Device-level security: Your task data is protected by your device's built-in security (encryption, lock screen, etc.)
  • HTTPS encryption: All network communications (ads, analytics) use secure, encrypted connections
  • Trusted providers: We only use reputable services (Google/Firebase) with strong security practices
  • Minimal data collection: We only collect what's necessary for app functionality
  • Secure payments: All payment processing handled by Google Play and Apple - we never see your payment details

However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9 Your Choices

  • Delete tasks: You can delete any task or reminder at any time within the app
  • Opt out of personalized ads: Through your device's ad settings (Settings → Google → Ads)
  • Disable notifications: Through your device settings at any time, though this will prevent reminders from being delivered
  • Go ad-free: Upgrade to Premium to remove ads entirely
