Keepstead

Privacy policy

Effective 6 November 2026. Keepstead is provided by SocialSure Private Limited.

Your inventory stays on your device

Keepstead stores properties, addresses, belongings, quantities, serial numbers, purchase values, warranty dates, notes, custom fields, maintenance schedules and borrower records in the app's private storage. Selected photos, receipts and documents are copied into private storage. We do not operate a server for your inventory and do not collect, receive or share these records. Keepstead has no account or cloud synchronization. The free tier includes Google AdMob advertising, described below.

Selected files and notifications

Android's document picker lets you choose individual photos, receipts, QR label images and archives. The app does not request broad access to storage, camera, contacts or location. Photos may contain camera or location metadata already present in the selected original. Keepstead preserves original bytes, including that metadata. Originals are included in archive exports.

Optional reminders request notification permission when enabled. Background work reads local warranty, maintenance and loan dates and may show a daily count. Android can delay reminders. Notifications do not include item names or borrower details. No exact alarm permission is requested.

Optional Google Play purchase

A single lifetime purchase adds multiple properties, custom fields, maintenance schedules, loan tracking, QR labels and formatted inventory reports, and removes ads. Google Play processes payment under its own terms. Keepstead receives purchase status and a purchase token through the Play Store service, acknowledges completed purchases and retains a local ownership cache. It does not receive card details or send purchase records to a developer server.

Buying and restoring require Google Play connectivity. Internet permission supports AdMob and consent messages. A separately documented reviewer credential does not create a payment or change Google Play ownership.

Advertising and privacy choices

Free overview screens can show contextual banner ads supplied by Google AdMob. We do not send inventory records, addresses, photos, receipts, notes or exported files to AdMob. We request non-personalized ads. This does not eliminate all advertising data processing.

The Google Mobile Ads SDK collects and shares your IP address, which can indicate approximate location; app and ad interactions such as launches, taps and video views; diagnostics such as performance, app launch time, hangs and energy usage; and device or other identifiers, including Android advertising ID, app set ID and, where applicable, identifiers related to accounts signed in on the device. Google uses this data for advertising, measurement and analytics, and fraud prevention. SDK communications are encrypted in transit using TLS. There is no separate developer analytics service; Google SDK crash reporting is disabled, although advertising performance diagnostics are still processed.

Google's User Messaging Platform checks applicable privacy requirements and presents consent or opt-out choices where required before ads may be requested. When available, open Settings and choose Advertising privacy choices to change or withdraw your choices. Your records remain usable if you decline or if the consent service is unavailable. An ad may still be served in a limited form where permitted by your choices. You can reset or delete your advertising ID in Android Settings.

Once confirmed ownership is available, lifetime unlock removes banners. We check stored ownership before requesting consent for ads, and do not request ads while ownership is unresolved. Buying the unlock stops new ad requests; it does not erase advertising data already processed by Google. Google's privacy policy and advertising information describe its handling, retention and privacy controls. We do not control Google's retention periods or receive an individual advertising profile.

Exports and external viewers

CSV files contain item records. Complete ZIP archives contain all selected properties and records, plus original photos and receipts. Formatted PDFs contain the selected inventory details and photo previews. QR labels contain a local item identifier, not your address, notes or values. Archives exclude purchase ownership, review access, settings and unfinished drafts.

Exports are not encrypted. Anyone who can access an exported file can read it. If you choose a cloud document destination, external viewer, print service or sharing app, that service handles the file under its own terms. These actions require your selection. Importing validates an archive before replacing local records; invalid archives leave the current inventory unchanged.

Retention and deletion

Your records remain until you remove them, restore a replacement archive, clear app storage or uninstall Keepstead. Removing an item also removes its private attachments, maintenance and loan records. Removing an attachment leaves the original source file unchanged. Exported copies are not removed automatically.

Android automatic cloud backup and device transfer are disabled. Save your own archive from Settings before changing phones. Clearing storage does not cancel or refund a Google Play purchase. Restore ownership using the Google account that purchased it.

Audience, links and changes

Keepstead is intended for adults. Warranty dates and values are user-entered records, not a warranty verification, valuation or insurance service. Privacy and support links open your browser only when selected. The browser and website handle that visit separately.

This page will be updated when data practices change. For privacy questions, email shayanm2002@gmail.com. Avoid sending addresses, receipts, serial numbers or other private details unless needed for your question.
