Overview
JSON Viewer Pro ("the App", "we", "our") is a free, offline utility that helps you find, view, and explore JSON files stored on your Android device. This Privacy Policy explains what information the App accesses, why it accesses it, and how it is handled.
Information We Collect
We collect no personal information whatsoever. Specifically, the App does not collect, store, transmit, or share any of the following:
- Names, email addresses, phone numbers, or account credentials
- Device identifiers, advertising IDs, or hardware serial numbers
- Location data of any kind
- Usage analytics, crash reports, or telemetry
- The content of your JSON files
- Your file paths or directory structure
- Any behavioural data or app usage patterns
All file browsing, parsing, and viewing happens locally on your device and is never transmitted anywhere.
Permissions We Request
The App requests the following Android permissions. Each permission is used solely for the purpose described below and nothing else.
| Permission | Android version | Why it is needed |
|---|---|---|
| READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE | Android 9 and below | Allows the App to read files in shared storage so it can find and display your JSON files. |
| WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE | Android 9 and below | Allows the App to save newly created or edited JSON files to your device storage. |
| MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE | Android 11 and above | Required to recursively scan all directories (Downloads, Documents, app folders) to find every .json file on your device. Without this, the App cannot fulfil its core function of displaying all JSON files in one place. This permission is never used to access, read, or share media files, photos, videos, or any non-JSON content. |
You may revoke any permission at any time via Settings → Apps → JSON Viewer Pro → Permissions. Revoking storage permission will prevent the App from finding or opening JSON files but will not affect your data in any other way.
Third-Party Services
JSON Viewer Pro does not integrate any third-party services, including:
- No advertising networks or ad SDKs
- No analytics platforms (Google Analytics, Firebase, etc.)
- No crash reporting services (Crashlytics, Sentry, etc.)
- No social media SDKs
- No cloud storage or sync services
The App has no internet permission and cannot make network requests of any kind.
Children's Privacy
JSON Viewer Pro does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. Because the App collects no data whatsoever, it is safe for users of all ages. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us — though in practice this is not possible given the App's design.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the App after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
Because we collect no personal data, changes to this policy are unlikely to affect you in any meaningful way.
