Moodly Privacy Policy
Moodly lets you pick a mood, choose a status, style it as an image card, and save or share it. This policy explains what information the app handles and why. We keep it short because the app collects very little.
The short version
- No account, no sign-up, no profile.
- Your favorites, saved cards and settings stay on your phone.
- We never read your contacts, location or microphone. Moodly only sees a photo if you choose to take one or pick one as a card background, and that photo stays on your phone.
- If you send us feedback, we receive the message you wrote. That is the only information we collect ourselves.
- The app shows ads provided by Google AdMob, which collects some data to show and measure ads (details below).
Information that stays on your device
Moodly stores these on your phone only, and does not send them to us: your favorite statuses, the cards you create, your theme and reminder settings, and simple usage counters (the install date, how many times you opened the app and how many cards you saved). The counters are used to decide when to ask you to rate the app or show an ad. When you save a card, the image goes to your phone’s gallery. When you share a card, it goes to the app you choose. We do not upload your cards. If you use a photo as a card background (taken with the camera or chosen from your gallery through Android’s photo picker), a copy is kept inside the app on your phone so your saved cards keep their background. It is never sent to us or to anyone else, and it is deleted when you uninstall Moodly or clear the app’s storage.
Information you send us (feedback form)
If you use Settings → Send feedback, we receive: the category you chose, the message you wrote, your email address only if you choose to type it, the app version, the Android version and your phone model, and a random anonymous identifier created by Firebase Authentication. We use this only to read your message, fix problems, improve the app and, if you gave an email, reply to you. Messages are stored in Google Cloud Firestore (a Google Firebase service). Please do not put sensitive information in your message.
We keep feedback for as long as it is useful for improving the app. You can ask us to delete a message you sent (see “Your choices”).
Ads (Google AdMob)
Moodly is free and shows banner and interstitial ads from Google AdMob. To show, measure and protect ads, Google’s ads SDK may automatically collect and use: your device’s advertising ID, IP address (which can give an approximate location), how you interact with the app and ads, and diagnostic information such as launch time and crashes. This data is handled by Google under Google’s Privacy Policy. Where required (for example in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom), the app shows Google’s consent form so you can choose how ad data is used.
The app is rated for ages 13 and over, and we configure AdMob to block sensitive ad categories such as dating, gambling and alcohol. You can reset your advertising ID or limit ad personalisation in Android Settings → Google → Ads.
Notifications
If you turn on the daily reminder, the app schedules a local notification on your phone at the time you choose. No server is involved. You can turn it off in Settings at any time.
Permissions
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Notifications (Android 13+) | Only if you turn on the daily reminder. |
| Storage write (Android 10 and older only) | To save your card image to the gallery. Newer Android versions need no permission. |
| Internet / network state | To load ads and send feedback. |
| Advertising ID | Used by the ads SDK as described above. |
| Camera | Only when you tap Camera in the card editor to take a background photo. Moodly does not record video or audio. |
| Vibration | Light haptic feedback when you tap. |
Children
Moodly is not designed for children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has sent us information, tell us and we will delete it.
Security
Feedback and ad data are sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). Access to the feedback database is restricted by security rules so the app can add messages but cannot read anyone else’s.
Third-party services
- Google AdMob and Google Mobile Ads SDK (ads) – Google Privacy Policy
- Google Firebase: Authentication and Cloud Firestore (feedback) – Firebase privacy information
