Privacy Policy

How the ENDISM Android app and this website collect, use, store and share information — written to be read, not skimmed past.

Effective: 31 August 2026 Last updated: 20 October 2026 Applies to app version 1.29 and later

Summary

This Privacy Policy explains how ENDISM (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, stores and shares information when you use the ENDISM Android application and related websites, including https://endism.tr.

We designed ENDISM so that its security features run on your device. We do not sell personal data, we do not show ads, and we do not use third-party advertising or analytics SDKs inside the app. ENDISM does not use Android’s VPN service and does not route your internet traffic.

Operator: ENDISM INC., Registered in Ontario, Canada

1. Information we collect

A. Data sent to our servers

These items leave your device only when you activate a license or when the app checks that your license is still valid:

DataWhy we collect it
License key you enterTo activate and validate your license
Device identifier (Android ID or a generated identifier)To bind a license to a limited number of devices and prevent key sharing
Technical connection data (IP address, time, success or error)Processed automatically by our license server for security and abuse prevention
If you sign in to the license panel: a session record, a shortened IP address, a hashed browser identifier and the actions you take thereTo keep the panel secure, show you your recent activity and prevent license-key sharing

We do not receive your name, contacts, photos, messages, call logs, precise location, payment card details, browsing history, the list of your apps, or your files.

B. Data processed only on your device

The following is used to provide app features and stays on your phone unless you export a backup yourself:

  • The list of installed apps, package names, and local scan and adware-detector results
  • File names and hashes of APK files you choose to scan (with All files access)
  • App usage events and per-app usage time, used for screen time, daily limits, focus hours and to identify which app was recently on screen
  • Per-app mobile data usage, used only for the data-limit rule you set
  • The name of the app on screen, the web address in your browser and text shown on screen, checked by Site Guard, Digital Focus and Blocked words to match the rules you choose
  • Accessibility UI events for the optional cache-clear helper (tapping Android’s own “Clear cache” / “Force stop” buttons)
  • Your app-lock password, stored only as a salted hash
  • Your settings, block lists, Digital Focus rules and ignored apps
  • A backup file you export or import (saved where you choose; your license is never included)

2. Sensitive permissions

ENDISM may ask for powerful Android permissions. After activation the app asks only for what core protection needs; every other permission is requested when you turn on the feature that uses it, and can be revoked at any time in Android settings.

  • Accessibility service: Site Guard, Digital Focus and Blocked words read the app name on screen, the browser address bar and visible text to block the websites, apps and words you choose. Uninstall guard uses it to stop ENDISM being removed without your password, and the optional cache-clear helper uses it to tap buttons in Android Settings for you. Before you enable it, the app shows a disclosure and asks for your consent. This information is checked on your device only — it is never stored, sent or shared, and we do not read passwords or messages.
  • Usage access: identifies which app is in the foreground and for how long, for screen time, limits and the pop-up check. Content inside other apps is not read.
  • Query all packages (installed apps): needed to scan and list apps on the device.
  • All files access: needed only for full scans of APK files on storage. We do not upload your files.
  • Device Admin: optional uninstall protection, so the app cannot be removed without your password.
  • Request delete packages: lets you start the uninstall of an app you choose from scan or adware results; Android always asks you to confirm.
  • Display over other apps, notifications, battery-optimization exemption, Bluetooth state, and closing background apps: used for block screens, alerts, keeping protection running, the Bluetooth device-hours rule, and Boost.

ENDISM does not request the VPN service permission and does not install other apps or app updates itself. Updates are delivered through Google Play.

3. How we use information

  • Provide scanning, adware detection, Boost, Site Guard, Blocked words, Digital Focus, app lock and uninstall protection
  • Activate, verify and limit license keys to registered devices
  • Respond to support emails you send us
  • Protect our service against fraud and abuse

We do not use your data for advertising, ad profiling, or selling to data brokers.

4. Sharing

We share information only in these cases:

  • ENDISM license server that we operate to activate and validate license keys
  • Google Play, if you install from Google Play. Google may process device and account data under Google’s own policies
  • Legal requirement: if we are required by law to disclose information

We do not sell or rent personal information.

5. Retention

License key and device-identifier records are kept while the license is active and for a reasonable period afterwards to prevent abuse and handle support requests. On-device data remains until you delete it, reset the app or uninstall ENDISM. Support emails are kept as long as needed to resolve your request.

6. Security

License traffic is sent over HTTPS. App-lock passwords are stored as salted hashes on the device, never on our servers. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the data we hold.

7. Your choices and rights

  • You can refuse or revoke any Android permission in system settings
  • You can turn off Site Guard, Blocked words, Digital Focus, cache clear, app lock and Device Admin at any time
  • You can uninstall ENDISM to remove its local data
  • You may request access to or deletion of the license and device records we store by emailing support@endism.tr, including your license key if you have one

8. Children

ENDISM is a general-audience security app. Parental-control features are intended for a parent or guardian to manage a device. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country) for our own purposes. If you believe we have such data, contact us and we will delete it.

9. International processing

Our website and license server may process data in countries other than yours. By using ENDISM, you understand that this information may be transferred to those locations for the purposes described above.

10. Changes

We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date at the top will change, and the current version will always be published at https://endism.tr/privacy.html.
