Activity Data
The data you enter to record your activities, including the date and time of start and end of the activity, combined with formatting, notes, pictures and relationships between different activites you attach to those activites is stored. Deleting entries like activities or pictures doesn't completely remove them from the database but only hides them.
-
Geo-Location Information (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, GPS)
If configured the application accesses location-based information from your mobile device to relate acitivites to location and provide activity suggestions based on location information. If you wish to change ActivityDiarys access or permissions, you may do so in your device’s settings or disable the the use of location services in the applications settings. Note that this does not influence or remove the already collected location data.
-
Device storage (WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
Storage and retreival of backups, photos and other files you attach to your activity diary need access to Androids "external storage" / SD card.
-
Camera
The application enables you to take photos with your devices' camera and attach them to your activity diary. This is the only usage of the camera permission.
-
Network state (ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, ACCESS_WIFI_STATE)
Network and WIFI state is stored to correlate activities to those data and to propose and set next activites based on the current state.

Crash Reporting
In case of a program fault (crash) the application prepares a report that helps us to improve the behavior of the application. This report contains a lot of technical data about your device and operating system, the complete preferences of the application and the trace of program steps that was exectued right before the crash. The hardware of your device including but not limited to screen size and resolution, the manufacturer, the language setting and versions of the operating system and application are identifiable. The repared report is not transmitted automatically, but shared to your email application in a newly composed email that you - at your own will - can send to us or whomever you want. Protecting the data during transmission by using encrypted email transfer is under responsibility of you and your mail service provider. We highly recommend to thoroughfully review the report and remove all data you don't want to share or understand.
As the used media is email you will disclose your name, email address, and several other technical data like IP address and email service provider by transmitting a crash report. We will not use this information for anything else than contacting you about the crash.
Anonymous extracts of the report that do not allow your indentification might be used in the public issue tracker for documenting the crash and tracking the rework.
Additional to this report prepared by the application your operating system or services on you device might transmit crash or usage reports, but those are not part of ActivityDiary, not covered by this privacy policy and under your own responsibility.
