Time Card Calculator Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 30, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how the Android app Time Card Calculator (package com.sceapps.timecardcalculator, the “App”), published by Sce Apps (“we”, “us”), handles information. We have kept it short and clear.
Summary
- You do not create an account. We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, employer or Social Security number.
- Your hours, breaks, notes, hourly rate and settings are stored only on your device. We cannot see them.
- Time cards are shared only when you choose to share them, to the app or person you pick.
- The App is free and shows ads through Google AdMob. It also uses Google Analytics for Firebase to understand, in aggregate, how the App is used.
- Ads never appear while you are entering your hours.
- We do not sell your personal information.
1. Information stored on your device
The App saves the shifts you enter (clock-in and clock-out times, breaks, paid time off and optional notes), your hourly rate and your preferences (overtime rule, week start, pay period, time format, default break, language and reminder time) in the App’s private storage on your phone. This information is not sent to us and is deleted when you uninstall the App or clear its storage.
Sharing and backups. When you tap Share, the App creates a text summary, a PDF or a spreadsheet (CSV) file on your device and opens Android’s share sheet; the file goes only to the app or person you choose (for example email, messages or Google Drive). When you back up, the App creates a backup file in the same way. When you restore, the App reads only the file you select. We never receive these files.
Daily reminders are local notifications scheduled on your device; no notification server is used.
2. Analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase)
We use Google Analytics for Firebase, a service of Google LLC, to learn how the App is used so we can improve it. It collects:
- App interactions, such as which screens are opened, when a day is saved or a time card is shared (the format only), and which settings are chosen (for example the overtime rule);
- Device and app information, such as the device model, operating system version, app version, language and an app instance identifier;
- Approximate location (country or region) derived from your IP address.
Analytics never includes your hours, times, pay rate, pay amounts or notes. This information is not used to identify you personally, and we do not combine it with your name or contact details (the App does not collect them). Data is encrypted in transit. Learn more at firebase.google.com/support/privacy.
3. Advertising (Google AdMob)
To keep the App free, we show ads using Google AdMob, a service of Google LLC. To serve and measure ads and to prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect and share with Google:
- Device identifiers, such as the Android advertising ID;
- Approximate location derived from your IP address;
- Interactions with ads (for example, ad views and clicks);
- Diagnostic and performance information related to the ads SDK.
Data is encrypted in transit. Learn how Google uses this information at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
4. Your choices
- Advertising ID: you can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in your phone’s settings (Settings > Google > Ads, or Settings > Privacy > Ads, depending on your device).
- Consent: where required by law (for example in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, and in certain U.S. states), the App shows Google’s consent or privacy message before personalized ads are shown. You can change your choice at any time in the App under Settings > Your privacy choices when this option is shown.
- Notifications: the daily reminder is optional and can be turned off at any time in the App or in your phone’s settings.
5. U.S. state privacy rights (including California)
We do not sell personal information for money. Advertising through Google AdMob may be considered “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising under some U.S. state laws. You can opt out by turning off personalized ads as described above, through Google’s privacy message in the App where it is shown, or by contacting us. Because the App does not collect your name or contact details, information on your device can be deleted by uninstalling the App; for information held by Google, use the controls described in this policy.
6. Permissions
- Internet: to load ads and send analytics.
- Notifications (optional, requested only if you turn on the daily reminder): to show your reminder.
- Vibration: for gentle button feedback.
The App does not access your photos, contacts, microphone, camera or location. Files are opened only through Android’s file picker when you choose to restore a backup.
7. Calculations
Hours, overtime and pay are estimates for your own records based on the rules you choose. They are not tax, payroll or legal advice.
8. Children
The App is designed for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us and we will delete it.
9. Data retention and deletion
Hours and settings stay on your device until you uninstall the App, clear its storage or use “Delete all hours” in the App. Analytics data is kept by Google according to the retention settings of our Firebase project (no longer than 14 months). For data held by Google AdMob, use the advertising ID controls described above. You can also email us to ask about your data.
10. Languages
The App is available in English and Spanish. This policy applies to both versions of the App.
11. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the effective date above and publish the new version on this page.
