Privacy Policy for Before It Slips
Effective date: August 28, 2026
Before It Slips is an offline-first Android reminder and alarm app. Deverydapp does not require an account, operate a cloud reminder database, serve advertising, use an analytics SDK, or collect reminder content from your device.
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how Deverydapp (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information in the Before It Slips Android application. It applies to the app and not to unrelated websites, apps, or services you may choose to open from it.
2. Information the app accesses
The app stores information you choose to enter, including reminder titles, notes, categories, event dates and times, notification and alarm times, repeat schedules, Upcoming, Overdue, or Completed status, completion history, addresses, birthday and gift details, medication names, individual dose times and dosage instructions, return or cancellation deadlines, and other category-specific details. Appearance settings are also stored locally. This information remains in the app's on-device storage and is not sent to Deverydapp.
Notification and Alarm mode settings—including whether either or both are enabled—are stored with the reminder so the app can schedule the alert you selected. Snoozing an alarm creates a new local alarm for 10 minutes later. Dismissing or completing a reminder updates its local status and scheduled alerts.
The app does not access contacts, call logs, messages, photos, camera, microphone, precise device location, advertising identifiers, or payment information. Network access is used only when you request address suggestions or open a destination through an external navigation service.
3. Permissions and optional services
Notification permission
On Android versions that require it, the app requests notification permission when you first enable a notification or Alarm mode—not simply when the app opens. This permission is used to show the reminder content, play the selected alert sound, and use vibration according to your device settings. If permission is denied, the related alert may not be displayed.
Alarms & reminders
If you enable Alarm mode, the app may request Android's special Alarms & reminders access so a user-scheduled alarm can run at the selected time. This access is used only for reminders you create. Without it, Android may prevent precise alarm delivery.
Full-screen alarm
Alarm mode can display a full-screen alert with the reminder title and instructions, including Snooze for 10 minutes and Dismiss controls. Where Android requires separate full-screen notification access, the app requests or directs you to that setting when you activate the feature. This access does not allow Deverydapp to view other screen content or collect data from the device.
Restart recovery
Android boot-completed access lets the app reschedule active notifications and alarms after the device restarts. It is used only to restore reminders already saved locally and does not transmit information.
Address suggestions
If you type an address into a supported reminder, the search text is sent to an OpenStreetMap-based geocoding service so it can return suggestions. The provider also receives ordinary connection information such as an IP address. Deverydapp does not retain the request on a developer-controlled server.
Navigation
If you choose to navigate, the saved destination is opened in Google Maps or a browser. The selected provider's own privacy policy applies to that action.
4. How information is used
- Create, schedule, repeat, display, complete, reschedule, and organize reminders across the app's tailored categories and List, Week, and Month views.
- Deliver a standard notification, a full-screen Alarm mode alert, or both, according to the options you enable for each reminder.
- Snooze an active alarm for 10 minutes, dismiss it, and prevent completed, deleted, or replaced reminder occurrences from generating an outdated alert.
- Restore active scheduled notifications and alarms after a device restart and reschedule them when you change an event or alert time.
- Return address suggestions and open navigation only when you use those features.
- Maintain local reminder status, completion history, and appearance preferences.
Information is used only to provide the app functions described above and is not used by Deverydapp to build advertising profiles.
5. Sharing and third parties
Deverydapp does not sell personal information or share reminder content for advertising, analytics, profiling, or marketing. The app contains no advertising or analytics SDKs and does not send reminder titles, notes, schedules, medication details, completion history, or Alarm mode activity to Deverydapp.
An OpenStreetMap-based address-search provider receives the search text you submit and technical connection information needed to return suggestions. If you open navigation, the saved destination is passed to Google Maps or the browser you select. These third parties process information under their own privacy practices.
Android system services process notification, alarm, vibration, restart, and full-screen intent functions on your device. These system interactions are used to operate the reminder you configured and do not create a Deverydapp user account or developer-controlled cloud record.
6. Storage, retention, and deletion
App information stored locally remains on the device until you delete it in the app, clear the app’s storage in Android settings, or uninstall the app. Deverydapp cannot remotely view or delete information that exists only on your device.
Depending on your Android backup settings, Android may include app data in a device backup associated with your platform account. Deverydapp cannot access or control that backup; you can manage it through your Android or Google account settings.
Third-party services described above may retain request information under their own policies. Deverydapp does not maintain a server-side copy of that information.
7. Security
The app relies on Android’s application sandbox, permission controls, and local storage protections. Optional transfers use the device’s network and Android’s standard app-to-app mechanisms. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, but we limit access and transmission to what is needed for the selected feature.
8. Children’s privacy
Before It Slips is a general-audience productivity utility and is not directed to children under 13. The app does not include advertising, analytics, or account creation.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy if the app’s features, data practices, or legal requirements change. The revised policy will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Material changes will be communicated in the app or store listing when appropriate.
