1. Executive Summary & Scope
This policy explains what the Magic Fluids live wallpaper app ("the app") does with information on your device. The app is published by SoftTech Service ("we", "us", or "our").
In short: The app has no user accounts, we do not run our own cloud servers, and your photos, sounds, and motion movements never leave your device. Advertising is shown solely through Google AdMob, which is detailed in Section 2.
1. Information Processed Only on Your Device
The following table discloses every category of data processed by Magic Fluids, why it is accessed, and whether it ever leaves your device:
| What Data | Why Needed | Leaves Your Device? |
|---|---|---|
| Photos you choose | To take colours from a photo, or to show a photo through the fluid ("photo fluid"). A resized copy of a photo you pick for photo fluid is stored in the app's private storage. | No Deleted automatically when you uninstall the app or clear cache. |
| Audio playing on your phone (Music mode, off by default) |
If you switch on music mode, the app reads the beat of the audio currently playing so the fluid can move with it. Android requires the microphone permission for this. | No Audio is analysed in real time in volatile memory and immediately discarded. Nothing is recorded or stored, and analysis only runs while the wallpaper is visible. |
| Motion sensors (Gyroscope & Accelerometer) |
To calculate fluid gravity vectors and make the liquid slosh when you tilt your phone. | No Processed on-device for GPU vertex calculations only. |
| Battery level & charging state | For the charging animation (fluid rising with charge level) and automated battery-saving frame-rate adjustments. | No Read via local Android BatteryManager broadcasts. |
| Text you type & settings ("Your name in fluid") |
To remember your custom text, fluid presets, color sliders, and visual preferences. | No Stored locally in private app SharedPreferences. |
| Clips and images you create | Saved directly to your local photo gallery or handed to the third-party app you select only when you tap Save or Share. | Only if shared Only transmitted if you choose to share them yourself via the Android share sheet. |
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
Magic Fluids is free to download and supported by advertisements shown through Google AdMob.
To serve and measure ads, Google may collect device information such as your advertising ID, IP address, device model, operating system version, app interactions, and approximate location derived from your IP address. This information is collected by Google, not by SoftTech Service, and is governed by Google's Privacy Policy: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
EEA / UK / Switzerland User Consent:
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the app presents a Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) consent dialog before personalized ads are displayed. You can review or modify your consent choices at any time inside the app by visiting Settings > Ads Privacy Options. You can also reset or delete your advertising identifier at any time in your phone's Android Settings > Google > Ads.
3. Google Play Services
- Install Referrer: On first launch the app asks Google Play which link it was installed from, so that a shared wallpaper link automatically opens that exact fluid style. Only the link's wallpaper name or visual settings payload are evaluated; nothing is transmitted to our servers.
- In-App Updates: The app queries Google Play Services to check whether a newer, optimized version of the app is available for your device.
4. Sharing Links
When you share a wallpaper with friends or social media, the generated sharing link contains only the wallpaper's preset name or encoded visual physics parameters (colors, viscosity, swirl speed). It contains no personal information, no device identifiers, and no user images.
5. Children's Privacy
The app is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Union), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe your child has inadvertently provided data through third-party ad networks, please contact us immediately to address the concern.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
Everything the app stores (visual preferences, custom fluid configurations, saved presets, and chosen photo textures) lives strictly in the app's sandboxed private storage on your device.
Clearing the app's storage via Android Settings > Apps > Magic Fluids > Storage > Clear Data or uninstalling the app permanently deletes all saved data. SoftTech Service holds no cloud copy.
7. Security
Because your data stays entirely on your physical hardware, it is safeguarded by Android's application sandboxing and your device's built-in security features. Communications with Google Play Services and Google AdMob strictly utilize industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS/HTTPS) encrypted protocols.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to reflect app enhancements or evolving regulatory guidelines. If this policy changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document. We encourage you to review this page occasionally.
