📱 Lite Mind App Privacy Policy

This policy covers the Lite Mind hobby project Android application and explains our zero data collection approach.

1. The Simple Truth

This hobby project collects ZERO data from you. This isn't marketing - it's our technical architecture. Since all AI processing happens on your device, we literally cannot access your conversations, documents, or any content you process.

🔒 What This Means for You

  • ✅ Your conversations never leave your phone
  • ✅ Your documents are processed entirely offline
  • ✅ No accounts, logins, or personal information required
  • ✅ No internet connection needed after model download
  • ✅ Complete privacy even from us (the developers)

2. What We Don't Collect (Everything)

Unlike other AI services, Lite Mind is designed with privacy-by-design architecture:

  • Conversations: Your AI chats never leave your device
  • Documents: PDFs, images, text - all processed locally
  • Personal Info: No names, emails, phone numbers
  • Usage Data: No tracking of how you use the app
  • Device Info: No fingerprinting or hardware details
  • Location: No GPS or location tracking
  • Analytics: No usage statistics or behavior tracking
  • Crash Reports: No automatic error reporting

3. How It Works Technically

3.1 Offline AI Processing

When you use Lite Mind:

  1. You download an AI model once to your device
  2. All conversations happen between you and the local model
  3. No data is sent to our servers or anyone else's
  4. Everything stays in your phone's memory and storage

3.2 Local Data Storage

All your data is stored locally on your device:

  • AI Models: Stored in app's private directory
  • Conversations: Local SQLite database (optional)
  • Settings: Android SharedPreferences
  • Temporary Files: Automatically cleared

4. Third-Party Services

4.1 Google Play Store

The app is distributed through Google Play, which may collect installation metrics according to Google's privacy policy. We don't have access to this data.

4.2 AI Model Downloads

Models are downloaded from public repositories (Hugging Face, etc.). During download only the model files are transferred - no personal information.

4.3 No Other Services

Lite Mind contains:

  • ❌ No crash reporting (Crashlytics, Sentry)
  • ❌ No analytics (Google Analytics, Firebase)
  • ❌ No advertising networks
  • ❌ No social media integrations
  • ❌ No cloud storage or sync

5. AI Model Limitations & Safety

⚠️ Important AI Safety Information

While your data remains private on your device, the AI models themselves have limitations that users must understand:

  • Accuracy limitations: AI models can provide incorrect or misleading information
  • Not medical advice: Never use for medical diagnosis, treatment, or health decisions
  • Sensitive data caution: Exercise care when processing highly confidential information
  • Professional responsibility: Users in regulated industries must ensure compliance
  • Verification required: Always verify important AI-generated content

6. Your Rights & Control

Since we don't collect your data, traditional privacy rights don't apply in the usual sense:

  • Right to Control: All data stays on your device under your control
  • Right to Delete: Uninstall the app to remove all data
  • Right to Export: Your conversations can be exported from the app
  • Right to Privacy: Automatically protected by our architecture

6. Legal Compliance

6.1 GDPR (European Union)

Lite Mind is GDPR compliant by design. Since we don't collect personal data, most GDPR obligations don't apply.

6.2 CCPA (California)

We don't sell, share, or collect personal information covered by CCPA.

7. Security

The most secure data is data that doesn't exist in the cloud. Your security depends on your device security:

  • Use device lock screens and encryption
  • Keep your Android device updated
  • Only install apps from official sources
  • Use strong device passwords/biometrics

8. Children's Privacy

Since we don't collect any personal information from any users, children can safely use Lite Mind with complete privacy protection.

9. Changes to This Policy

Our core principle of zero data collection will never change. Any updates would only involve clarifications or additional privacy protections.

🛡️ The Bottom Line

Lite Mind was built to solve the privacy problem in AI. Your conversations are processed entirely on your device, never uploaded to the cloud, and remain completely under your control.

Your data stays yours. Always.
