Krow is an Android app for keeping track of smart working, office days, holidays and leave, built by an independent developer (m.i.n.a.r.). This page explains, in plain language, what data the app touches and what it does with it. The short version: Krow has no server backend, no account, no analytics or advertising SDK, and no internet permission at all. It cannot send anything anywhere, because it cannot reach the network in the first place.
Krow does not declare the INTERNET permission. Android therefore blocks any network request the app could attempt, by anything inside it. There is no telemetry, no crash reporting, no remote configuration and no way for your calendar to leave the device through the app.
These are stored locally to make the app work, and never leave your phone:
The days you record, what each half day was spent doing and any notes you write are kept in a database in the app’s own private storage. Krow does not read your system calendar, your contacts, your location or your files, and asks for no permission to do so.
Theme, working days, country for public holidays, your usual week, the smart working and holiday limits, your own added holidays and the reminder times are stored locally in the app’s private preferences.
National holidays are calculated by the app from a set of rules built into it, including the date of Easter. Nothing is downloaded and no holiday service is contacted.
The two optional reminders are scheduled on the device with Android’s WorkManager and shown as ordinary local notifications. The notification permission is requested only when you switch a reminder on, and denying it disables nothing else in the app.
The widget reads the same local database to draw the current month. It communicates with nothing outside the device.
Krow is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone, of any age. The app has no account system, and its only network use is fetching a web address you type in, so there is no mechanism by which it could.
Everything described above lives in your device's local storage. Uninstalling Krow (or clearing its app data from Android settings) permanently deletes all of it. There is nothing on our end to delete, because nothing is stored on our end.
If this policy changes, the "last updated" date above will change accordingly. Meaningful changes will also be reflected in the app's release notes.
