Med Alarm Privacy Policy ======================== Effective date: 26 July 2026 Publisher: AMK Package: com.amk.medicinealarm Contact: info@supportamk.com Overview -------- Med Alarm works locally on your Android device. The app has no Internet permission and contains no account, advertising, analytics, tracking, developer server, or automatic OpenAI or ChatGPT integration. Information stored on the device -------------------------------- Med Alarm can store medicine names and categories, doses and units, instructions and notes, schedules, course dates, repeat plans, food-gap choices, today-only time changes, routine times, adherence and alarm-fire history, app settings, active alarm state, scheduled-alarm state, and diagnostic or crash events. The information is kept in Android app-private storage and is not sent to AMK. Ordinary medicine records, history, settings, and diagnostics rely on Android's app-private storage and device protections; they are not separately encrypted by the app. Diagnostic storage retains up to 250 recent events. It may include medicine names, alarm times, errors, and technical stack traces. Medicine photos and camera behavior ----------------------------------- A medicine photo is optional. Gallery selection uses Android's document picker. Camera capture uses the external camera app with a temporary private FileProvider link. Med Alarm requests neither camera permission nor broad photo or storage access. The app copies a selected or captured image into private storage and encrypts that copy with AES-GCM using a key held by Android Keystore. A gallery original remains at its original location. Normal temporary camera files are deleted after import. Deleting the gallery original does not remove Med Alarm's encrypted app copy. Lock-screen and notification visibility --------------------------------------- Full-screen alerts and public alarm notifications can display a medicine name, dose, time, instructions, and optional photo on the lock screen. Someone near the phone may see this health-related information without unlocking it. Review Android lock-screen notification settings and consider disabling full-screen ringing if this is sensitive. Backups ------- Optional portable .medbackup files can include medicines, schedules, adherence and alarm history, overrides, routine times, settings, and photos. They exclude the app's diagnostic-event store. New backups use AES-GCM with a key derived from a password of at least eight characters using PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256. If the app remembers the recovery password locally, that password is encrypted using Android Keystore. AMK cannot recover a forgotten password. Anyone possessing both the backup file and password can restore its contents. Android automatic app backup and device transfer are disabled. A portable backup saved outside the app remains after Delete all local app data, Android Clear storage, or uninstall. Delete external backups separately. A storage provider you choose may sync a file under that provider's privacy terms. Reports, clipboard, and sharing ------------------------------- Medicine-history reports can contain schedules, doses, instructions, notes, routine information, statuses, and alarm timestamps. App-health reports can add the device model, Android and app versions, time zone, permission status, and diagnostic or crash details. No report leaves the device automatically. Copy or Share sends the report only to the clipboard or app or service you select. Review it first and share only with a recipient you trust, including before pasting it into an AI service. Permissions ----------- Med Alarm uses: - Notifications and full-screen alarms for reminders and its ringing screen. - Exact alarms to schedule reminders as closely as Android allows. - A foreground service, wake lock, and vibration for active alarms. - Boot-completed and time-change broadcasts to restore or recalculate alarms. - Android's document picker and external camera app for optional photos. The app requests no Internet, location, contacts, microphone, SMS, calendar, camera, or broad-storage permission. Deleting data ------------- Deleting a medicine removes its current record and private photo. Historical dose and alarm entries containing the medicine name may remain so past activity can still be reviewed. Delete all local app data, Android Clear storage, or uninstall clears private schedules, history, settings, diagnostics, and photos. External portable backup files are never removed automatically. Donation website ---------------- Med Alarm is free and donations unlock no features. Its optional donation action opens https://supportamk.com/ in your chosen browser. The browser, website, payment app, and payment provider operate separately. Med Alarm does not receive or store payment details. Medical and reliability notice ------------------------------ Med Alarm is not a medical device and is not medical advice. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition, check drug interactions, calculate doses, or recommend treatment. Verify every medicine, dose, time, course, and food-gap setting against the medicine label and with a qualified doctor or pharmacist. Selecting Homeopathy prefills an editable 20-minute before or after food gap as a convenience only. That preset is not medically validated advice. Android permissions, battery restrictions, Force Stop, phone shutdown, manufacturer settings, and other system conditions can delay or prevent alarms. Do not use Med Alarm as your only reminder for critical medication. For a missed or incorrect dose, seek professional guidance; for an emergency, contact local emergency services. Children -------- AMK does not knowingly collect personal information from children or any other users through the app. A parent or caregiver should supervise entries and medicine decisions for a child. Changes and contact ------------------- This policy may be updated when app functionality, permissions, or legal requirements change. Email privacy questions to info@supportamk.com.
