ShieldGuard Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy for ShieldGuard — Mobile Security & Cleaner
Last updated: October 15, 2026
1. Introduction
ShieldGuard — Mobile Security & Cleaner (“ShieldGuard,” “we,” “our,” or “the app”) is an Android utility designed to help users review accessible files, inspect available application information, perform supported security checks, and manage selected unwanted files.
This Privacy Policy explains how the app may access, use, store, and share information when you use it.
2. Information We Access
Depending on the features you use and the permissions you grant, ShieldGuard may access the following information:
Files and media: Files or media you select or authorize the app to access for scanning or cleanup.
Installed application information: Limited information about installed applications that Android makes available to the app and that is necessary for supported features.
Scan results: Information generated by scans, such as file-check results and potential risks identified by the checks implemented in the app.
App settings: Preferences you choose within the app.
The app's actual access is limited by Android permissions and system security restrictions.
3. How We Use Information
Information accessed or generated by ShieldGuard may be used to:
Perform supported file checks and security assessments.
Display application information available to the app.
Help you review and remove supported unwanted files when you confirm the action.
Save scan history or preferences if these features are enabled.
Diagnose technical problems and maintain app functionality.
We do not claim that ShieldGuard can access every file or private area of your device or detect every form of malware.
4. File Access and Cleanup
ShieldGuard accesses files through Android-supported mechanisms and the permissions you grant. Depending on the feature, you may need to select files or grant specific access.
The app will request confirmation before performing supported cleanup actions. You remain responsible for reviewing files before removal.
5. Advertising and Third-Party Services
ShieldGuard may use Google AdMob to display advertisements.
Google Mobile Ads and related services may collect or process certain information, such as device identifiers, advertising identifiers, IP address, approximate location derived from IP address, ad interaction information, diagnostics, or other data, depending on your device, consent choices, region, and SDK configuration.
Google and its partners may use information as described in their applicable privacy policies and terms.
For more information, review:
Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Google advertising information: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
If advertising is disabled or removed from a particular version of ShieldGuard, this section should be updated to accurately reflect that version.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell users' personal information.
Information may be processed or shared with service providers when necessary to provide app functionality, deliver advertisements, measure advertising performance, prevent fraud, or diagnose technical issues. Google AdMob may process information as described in Google's applicable policies.
We do not intentionally share files you select for scanning with advertising providers. The actual behavior must be verified against the app's code and all included SDKs.
We may disclose information if required by applicable law or to protect the security and integrity of the service.
7. Data Storage and Retention
Some settings or scan results may be stored locally on your device if the relevant features are enabled.
The retention of information processed by third-party services, including advertising services, is governed by the applicable service providers' policies and settings.
You can remove locally stored app information by using available in-app options or, where applicable, clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app. This may not delete information already processed by third-party services.
8. Permissions
ShieldGuard requests only the Android permissions necessary for its implemented features. Available permissions may depend on the app version and the features you use.
You can manage app permissions through your Android device settings. Revoking a permission may limit the corresponding feature.
9. Children's Privacy
ShieldGuard is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children. The intended audience and any applicable child-safety requirements depend on the app's Google Play target-audience settings.
If the app is made available to children, additional privacy, advertising, and legal requirements may apply. The app and its advertising configuration must comply with those requirements.
10. Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information handled by the app. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Users should avoid granting unnecessary permissions and should review requested access before authorizing it.
11. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to certain processing of your personal information.
You can manage Android permissions through device settings and manage applicable advertising privacy choices through the controls available on your device or in the app.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the app's features, advertising services, or legal requirements change. The updated version will be published at the same privacy policy URL with a revised “Last updated” date.
