PinApp Privacy Policy &
Terms of Service
1. Executive Summary & Google Play Compliance Statement
This document contains the official Privacy Policy, Data Safety Declaration, and End User License Agreement (EULA) for PinApp (package identifier com.pinzero.shortcutmaker), published on the Google Play Store by Infinite Venture Holdings LLC.
PinApp is a utility application designed to create 1-tap Android home screen shortcuts for launching local, offline HTML files (such as PinZero field applications) in the device's default mobile browser.
2. Zero Data Collection Mandate
Infinite Venture Holdings LLC operates under a strict principle: PinApp collects no data whatsoever.
- No Personal Data Collected: PinApp does not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, contact lists, photos, or personal identifiers.
- No Location Data Tracked: PinApp does not request, access, log, or transmit GPS, cellular, or Wi-Fi location data.
- No Device Telemetry or Analytics: PinApp does not monitor app usage, session lengths, button taps, crash logs, or hardware IDs.
- No Data Transmitted or Shared: Because PinApp cannot connect to the internet, transmitting or sharing user data with third parties, ad networks, or cloud servers is physically impossible.
3. Android Manifest & Permissions Audit
Google Play Store policies require full transparency regarding Android OS runtime permissions. PinApp maintains a zero-trust, privacy-by-design architecture verified directly by its application manifest file (AndroidManifest.xml).
3.1 Permission Audit Matrix
| Requested Android Permission | Manifest Status | Operational Impact & Safety Guarantee |
|---|---|---|
android.permission.INTERNET |
OMITTED | The app is physically incapable of making network calls, opening HTTP/HTTPS sockets, or communicating with remote servers. |
android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION |
OMITTED | The app cannot access device GPS hardware or determine geographical coordinates. |
android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION |
OMITTED | The app cannot estimate location via cell towers or Wi-Fi networks. |
android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
OMITTED | The app does not request global media or storage reading permissions. |
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
OMITTED | The app does not write data to external storage or global directories. |
android.permission.READ_CONTACTS |
OMITTED | The app has zero access to user address books or contact records. |
android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE |
OMITTED | The app cannot read device IMEI, phone numbers, or cellular network status. |
3.2 Technical Verification
Inspection of the production AndroidManifest.xml confirms that zero <uses-permission> tags are present in the compiled APK. The application operates solely through standard Android Intent launchers (android.intent.action.MAIN and android.intent.category.LAUNCHER).
4. Google Play Console Data Safety Form Reference
This section provides the exact parameters for Google Play Store Data Safety review and compliance verification:
-
Does your app collect or share any of the required user data types?
No. PinApp does not collect or share any user data. -
Is all of the user data collected by your app encrypted in transit?
Not Applicable. No data is ever collected or transmitted. -
Do you provide a way for users to request that their data be deleted?
Not Applicable. Because no user data, accounts, or telemetry are ever collected or stored, no remote data exists to delete. Uninstalling the application removes all local app binaries instantly.
5. Third-Party Library & Dependency Security Audit
To ensure zero indirect tracking, PinApp is compiled strictly using standard, first-party Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and Google Material Design libraries.

6. Children's Privacy & Regulatory Alignment
6.1 Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) & Google Play Families Policy
PinApp complies fully with COPPA and Google Play Developer Program Policies regarding children. PinApp does not knowingly collect, store, or solicit personal information from children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in applicable jurisdictions). Because the application contains zero data collection mechanisms, zero advertisements, and zero network capabilities, it is entirely safe for users of all ages.
6.2 General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR - Article 25)
PinApp enforces Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default as mandated by GDPR Article 25. By executing locally without network permissions or identifier logging, data protection is inherently guaranteed at the architectural level.

Infinite Venture Holdings LLC confirms that PinApp does not collect, sell, rent, share, or monetize personal information or precise geolocation data of California consumers.
