1. Information processed and purposes
Chatview reads senders, message text and times, photos and attachments from notifications of supported apps authorized by the user, processing them on the device for storage, search and display. It does not retrieve entire conversations from the original apps. User-sent text replies are passed to the original messaging or SMS app, and request history is stored on the device.
2. Storage, deletion and backup
Messages and saved media are encrypted in app-specific storage and excluded from Android automatic backup and device transfer. Retention defaults to 30 days, with a choice of 7 or 30 days. Expired material becomes eligible for automatic cleanup. Users can delete conversations or all messages in the app, or clear app data in Android settings. Turning storage off or withdrawing permission does not delete existing material. Deletion does not remove data from the original apps or replies already delivered.
3. External services
The app uses Google AdMob for advertising; related processing follows Article 9 of the common policy. It does not automatically upload saved messages or photos to BCODEIT servers, and message content and reply text are not directly included in ad requests. External apps selected by the user, including for replies, process information under their own policies.
4. Permissions, contact and effective date
Saving notifications requires Android notification access. Withdrawing access in Android settings limits new notification storage; existing material can be deleted separately. Privacy inquiries and rights requests can be submitted to the contact in Article 6 of the common policy.
