This Privacy Policy explains how Volo Browser ("Volo", "we", "the app") handles information when you use it. Volo is designed to keep your browsing on your device and to collect as little as possible.
1. Data stored only on your device
Your browsing history, bookmarks, open tabs, downloads, saved settings, and incognito sessions are stored locally on your device only. We do not upload them, we cannot see them, and they are not sent to us or any third party. Clearing the app data or uninstalling the app removes them. Incognito tabs keep no history or cache.
2. Data collected by third-party services
Volo uses a small number of Google services that may collect limited data to function:
| Service | Data | Purpose | Shared |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google AdMob | Advertising ID (device identifier), approximate location (from IP) | Showing and measuring ads on Volo's own home screen | Yes — with Google as an advertising partner |
| Google Analytics for Firebase | Device identifier, in-app interactions (e.g. screens opened), approximate location | Understanding overall, aggregated usage to improve the app | No |
| Firebase Crashlytics | Crash logs, diagnostics, device identifier | Detecting and fixing crashes and stability issues | No |
Ads are shown only on Volo's own home / new-tab screen. We never inject ads into the third-party websites you visit. All data is encrypted in transit.
3. Permissions
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE | Load web pages and check connectivity |
POST_NOTIFICATIONS | Optional download and update notifications (Android 13+) |
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (Android 9 and older) | Save downloaded files |
com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID | Advertising ID used by AdMob |
4. What we do NOT do
- We do not sell your personal data.
- We do not require an account or ask you to sign in.
- We do not collect your browsing history, bookmarks, or the content of pages you visit.
5. Your choices
You can reset or delete your Advertising ID in your device settings (Settings → Privacy → Ads). You can clear Volo's on-device data at any time from your device's Apps settings, or by using Incognito mode to browse without saving history.
6. Children
Volo is a general-audience web browser and is not directed at children under 13. Because it provides access to the open web, we recommend supervision for younger users.
7. Changes & Contact
We may update this policy from time to time; the "Last updated" date above will change. For any question about this policy or your data, contact us at: tharrinet@gmail.com.
سياسة الخصوصية (ملخّص بالعربية)
متصفّح Volo يحفظ سجلّ تصفّحك ومفضّلاتك وتبويباتك وتنزيلاتك وإعداداتك على جهازك فقط، ولا يرفعها إلى خوادمنا ولا يمكننا الاطّلاع عليها. يستخدم Volo خدمات Google التالية بأقلّ قدر ممكن:
- Google AdMob: معرّف الإعلان والموقع التقريبي — لعرض الإعلانات وقياسها على صفحة Volo الرئيسية فقط (لا تُحقن في مواقع الغير). تُشارك مع Google كشريك إعلاني.
- Google Analytics: معرّف الجهاز وتفاعلات داخل التطبيق — لفهم الاستخدام العام وتحسين التطبيق. لا تُشارك.
- Firebase Crashlytics: سجلّات الأعطال والتشخيص — لاكتشاف الأعطال وإصلاحها. لا تُشارك.
لا نبيع بياناتك، ولا نطلب إنشاء حساب، ولا نجمع محتوى الصفحات التي تزورها. كل البيانات مشفّرة أثناء النقل. يمكنك إعادة ضبط معرّف الإعلان من إعدادات جهازك، أو مسح بيانات التطبيق في أي وقت. للتواصل: tharrinet@gmail.com.
