Privacy Policy for Button Mapper TV Seniors Help

Effective Date: January 31, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how “Smartago LLC” (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information in connection with your use of the Button Mapper TV Seniors Help (the “App”).

1. Accessibility Service Disclosure (CRITICAL)

The App uses the Android Accessibility Service API to detect hardware button presses on your remote control.

  • Purpose: We use this service solely to allow the remapping of physical buttons to custom actions (e.g., opening a specific app or system setting). This is a core accessibility feature designed to help seniors and users with motor impairments navigate their TV more easily.
  • No Data Collection: We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data, keystrokes, or sensitive information through the Accessibility Service. All button detection and processing happen locally on your device.

2. Information We Collect

The App is designed with a “Privacy First” approach. We collect minimal data strictly for functionality:

  • App Preferences: Your custom button mappings and chosen actions are stored locally on your device or within your private Firestore document.
  • Technical Data: We use Google Analytics (with IP Anonymization) to track aggregated, anonymized statistics (e.g., which features are most used) to improve the App.

3. App Permissions Required

  • BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE: Required to detect and remap remote control button presses.
  • SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW (Display over other apps): Required to show the setup dialogs and overlays when a button is pressed.
  • QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES: Required to let you choose which app to open when you remap a button.
  • INTERNET: Required for license verification and anonymized analytics.

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell or rent your information. We only share anonymized technical data with:

  • Google Analytics: For app performance monitoring.
  • Google Play Billing: For managing your Elite features and subscriptions.

5. Your Privacy Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your data. Since the App processes most data locally, you can clear your settings at any time by uninstalling the App or clearing its cache. For data associated with your Smartago account, contact us at support@smartago.net.

6. Children’s Privacy

The App is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
