1. Who is responsible
App Resist is an app by AJMJ Lab Studio, the trade name of Andrei Iulian Constantin, based in Spain. You can write to us at contact@ajmjlabstudio.com. Our full identification details are in the legal notice at ajmjlabstudio.com.
2. Data that stays on your phone
To work, App Resist stores on your phone, and only on your phone:
- The apps you choose to protect and the list of installed apps we show you to pick them.
- Your schedules, settings and preferences.
- An activity log: attempts to open protected apps, urges resisted, challenges, access earned and overrides, with their date and time.
- The stats, streaks and achievements calculated from that log, and the question history used to avoid repeating questions.
- The status of your trial, your 24-hour pass and Pro.
This data is not sent to any server and we have no access to it. It is deleted when you uninstall the app or clear its data in Android settings.
3. The Accessibility service
App Resist uses Android's Accessibility service for a single purpose: to know which app is opening so it can show your protection screen when it's one you chose. It doesn't read the screen content, your messages, passwords or what you type, it doesn't act on other apps and it sends nothing off the phone. Before you turn it on we explain this and ask for your consent, and you can turn it off at any time in Android settings.
4. Backups and notifications
If you export a backup, a file with your settings and stats is created and saved wherever you decide; we never receive it. Notifications and alarms (for example, when a schedule starts) are created on the phone itself.
5. Ads in the free version (Google AdMob)
When you use the free version, outside the trial and without Pro, the app shows a small banner and, if you ask for it, a rewarded video. They are served by Google AdMob, which may process:
- Your device's advertising ID.
- Your IP address, from which it may infer an approximate location.
- Technical information about the device and system, and interactions with ads (for example, whether they are shown or tapped).
- Diagnostic and performance data.
It uses them to show and measure ads and to prevent fraud. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland we ask for your consent with Google's tool before loading ads, and you can change your choice in Settings → Ad privacy. Without consent, only non-personalized ads are shown. You can reset or delete your advertising ID in Android settings. With Pro or during the trial, no ads are loaded.
More information: Google Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
6. Purchases (Google Play)
Subscriptions and the lifetime purchase are made through Google Play. Google processes your payment data under its own terms; we never see your card or billing details. The app only asks Google Play what you have bought in order to turn on Pro.
7. Legal basis
- Your consent, for personalized ads and for the Accessibility service.
- Performance of the contract, to provide Pro when you buy it.
- Legitimate interest, to show non-personalized ads in the free version and to prevent fraud.
8. International transfers
Google may process data outside the European Economic Area. It does so with the safeguards provided by the GDPR, such as standard contractual clauses or the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
9. Children
App Resist is not intended for children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect data from minors.
10. Your rights
You can exercise your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction and portability, and withdraw your consent, by writing to contact@ajmjlabstudio.com. Since your usage data stays on your phone, you can see, export or delete it yourself from the app or from Android settings. For data processed by Google, you can use Google's tools. If you believe we have not handled your data properly, you can complain to the Spanish Data Protection Agency (www.aepd.es) or to the authority in your country.
11. Security
Your data is kept in the app's private storage, protected by Android. Communications with Google AdMob and Google Play are encrypted.
12. Changes
If we change this policy, we will publish the new version on this page with its date. If the change is significant, we will also let you know in the app.
