Privacy Policy · Text Editor Pro

CloudEx Inc. ("we", "us", or "our") operates the "Text Editor Pro" app (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you. By using the Service, you are deemed to have agreed to the practices described in this Policy.

1. Our Core Principle

Text Editor Pro is a text editor. It opens, edits, and saves the text files you choose — including very large files and files in many character encodings — and with Premium it also works as a Markdown editor with a preview and export to HTML and PDF. Detecting the character encoding, syntax highlighting, search and replace, the Markdown preview, and exporting all run entirely on your device. Your documents are yours: we never view, collect, upload, or transmit their contents, their file names, or their locations to our servers. There is no account and no sign-up. Specifically, we do not have access to any of the following:

The contents of the files you open, edit, or create, including drafts and earlier saved versions
The names and locations of your files and folders, or the list of files you have opened recently
What you type, search for, or replace in the editor
The font files you import into the app

Your documents leave the app only through actions you take yourself: saving them to a location you choose, sharing them, or printing them (Section 2).

2. Your Files and Documents

Access only to what you choose: The app reads and writes files only through Android's Storage Access Framework — the system file picker and the folders you have given it access to. It does not request "All files access" (MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE) or the storage permission (READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE), so it can reach only the files and folders you pick yourself.
Reopening your files: So that you can reopen recent files, pinned files, and the folders you added, the app keeps a list of them together with the persistent access that Android grants for them. Both are kept only on your device (Section 3.2).
Drafts, saved versions, and large files: What you type is saved automatically as a draft in the app's own storage, so that your work is not lost if the app is closed. Each time you save over a file, its previous contents are kept as a saved version (up to 10 versions per file, for files of up to 8 MB, and up to 64 MB in total). To open a large file, the app keeps a copy of it (a snapshot) in its own storage. All of these stay on your device.
Cloud storage: If you open or save a file in a cloud storage service through the system file picker (for example, Google Drive), the transfer is handled by that service's app under its own terms. We do not receive the file.
Sharing and printing: The app passes a document to another app only when you choose "Share", and only to the app you select. For a long document, it first writes a temporary file to the app's cache to hand over. Printing and saving as PDF are handled by Android's printing feature; you choose the printer or the place to save the PDF.
Markdown preview and export (Premium): If a document refers to images on the web (http or https addresses), your device downloads those images directly from the servers that host them in order to display them. As with any web request, those servers receive your device's IP address and similar connection information; we do not. Images referenced by a relative path in the document's folder are read from your device. Links open in another app, such as your browser, only when you tap them. Scripts written in a document do not run in the preview.

3. Information We Collect

3.1 Information Collected Automatically

Anonymous crash reports: Via Firebase Crashlytics. When the app crashes, we collect the stack trace, device model, OS version, and app version. This does not include personally identifiable information, or the contents or names of your documents.
Purchase information: We use purchase tokens issued by Google Play to verify your one-time "Premium" purchase. We never receive any payment information such as credit card numbers.
List of our other apps: To show our other apps, the app downloads their names, descriptions, and icons from our content server (static files hosted on Cloudflare Pages). The request contains no personal data from the app. As with any request to a web server, the server receives your device's IP address as part of the connection. Tapping an app in the list opens its page on Google Play.

3.2 Information Stored Only on Your Device

Open tabs and drafts: The list of tabs you have open and the drafts of what you have typed are kept in the app's own storage, so that you can pick up where you left off.
Snapshots of large files: The copy the app makes when you open a large file, so that it can show the file page by page.
Saved versions: The previous contents of a file, kept each time you save over it (up to 10 versions per file, for files of up to 8 MB, and up to 64 MB in total), so that you can go back to an earlier version.
Recent files, pinned files, and folders you added: Their names and locations, and the persistent access that Android grants the app so that it can open them again.
App settings: The color scheme, text size, editor settings, and similar settings.
Imported fonts: A copy of any font file you import, so that the editor can use it.
Purchase status: Whether Premium is unlocked.
Android backup: If backup is turned on in your device settings, Android may include the app's settings, purchase status, and imported fonts in the backup it saves to your own Google account, and may copy them to a new phone when you transfer your data directly. Open tabs, drafts, snapshots, saved versions, and the lists of recent files and folders are always excluded. Your documents themselves are not app data — they stay wherever you keep them. This is handled by Android; we have no access to it.
When you uninstall: Uninstalling the app or clearing its data deletes the open tabs, drafts, snapshots, saved versions, the lists of recent files and folders, the settings, and the copies of imported fonts. The documents in your storage are not deleted.

3.3 Information We Explicitly Do Not Collect

The contents of your documents, drafts, or saved versions
The names or locations of your files and folders
What you type, search for, or replace
Your name, email address, phone number, or contacts (the app has no account or sign-up)
Your device's advertising ID (AAID)
A history of the websites you visit or the contents of your communications
The contents of your screen or of other apps

3.4 Permissions the App Requests and Their Purposes

Text Editor Pro needs only a few OS permissions and uses them only for the stated purposes:

Internet (INTERNET) — Used only for anonymous crash reports, Google Play purchase verification, in-app reviews and in-app updates, downloading the list of our other apps, showing this privacy policy in the app, and showing web images that a document refers to in the Markdown preview. It is not used to read or write your files, and editing does not require an internet connection.
Network state (ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE) — Lets the libraries the app uses check whether a connection is available before they connect.
Google Play billing (com.android.vending.BILLING) — Used to purchase Premium through Google Play.

The app does not request access to the camera, microphone, location, contacts, or notifications, nor "All files access" or the storage permission. It reaches your files only through the system file picker, as described in Section 2.

4. How We Use Information

The limited information we collect is used only for the following purposes:

Operating and maintaining the Service
Verifying your Premium purchase
Diagnosing and fixing crashes
Responding to support inquiries
Complying with applicable laws

5. Third-Party Services

Text Editor Pro uses the following third-party services. Each service has its own privacy policy.

Firebase Crashlytics (Google LLC) — anonymous crash diagnostic data
Google Play Billing (Google LLC) — the one-time Premium purchase; payment is completed on Google Play, and we receive only a purchase token
Google Play In-App Review and In-App Updates (Google LLC) — let you rate the app and install updates without leaving it; handled by Google Play
Cloudflare Pages (Cloudflare, Inc.) — hosts the static list of our other apps

Text Editor Pro does not use Google Analytics for Firebase or any other analytics service, does not use your device's advertising ID, and does not share your data with advertising networks.

6. Data Retention

Crash reports: retained for 90 days, then deleted.
Data on your device (open tabs, drafts, snapshots, saved versions, the lists of recent files and folders, settings, and imported fonts): kept until you delete it, uninstall the app, or clear the app's data. Closing a tab deletes its drafts and its snapshot. Saved versions are also deleted automatically, oldest first, when a file has more than 10 of them or when all of them together exceed 64 MB.

7. International Data Transfers

We are based in Japan. The infrastructure used for crash diagnostics and for hosting the list of our other apps may be located in various countries. When you use the Service, the minimal information described above may be processed outside your country of residence under standard contractual safeguards.

8. Your Rights

Depending on where you reside (e.g., the EEA, UK, California, Japan), you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of the limited information we hold. You can:

Remove files and folders from the lists in the app at any time. Removing a folder, or a file that is not open in a tab, also gives up the access the app kept for it
Close tabs to delete their drafts and snapshots, and delete all saved versions at any time from "Saved versions" in the app's settings
Uninstall the app or clear its data to erase everything the app stores on your device (Section 3.2). Your documents themselves are not affected
Contact us at the address below to make a request regarding the information we hold

9. Children's Privacy

Text Editor Pro is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age applicable in your region). If we inadvertently collect information from such a child, we will delete it promptly upon being contacted.

10. Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The latest version is always published at this URL together with its effective date. We will also notify you within the app of significant changes as appropriate.
