ClearDip Privacy Policy
ClearDip is a pool and spa water test log by ClearVoid Studios. Every feature is free, and the App is supported by ads. An optional one-time purchase through Google Play removes the ads. There are no subscriptions.
Data we process
- Test readings (including optional water temperature and water-appearance notes such as cloudy water or visible algae), maintenance notes, pool/spa settings, unit and product preferences, and reminder preferences stay on your device. We do not require an account.
- ClearDip does not upload your log data to ClearVoid Studios or ClearDip servers.
- Android backup is turned off. Android does not copy ClearDip’s data to Google Drive or move it to a new phone. Uninstalling the app or clearing its data deletes your log, so use Export if you want to keep a copy.
- Export prepares a text summary on your device and opens the Android share sheet. We do not receive what you share.
- Volume estimator, dose calculators, the treatment plan (including shock warnings), and the scaling check run on your device from numbers you enter. Results are estimates only (not professional advice).
- Ads (Google AdMob) — unless you buy Remove ads, ClearDip shows ads served by Google AdMob. To serve, measure, and limit ads and to prevent fraud, Google’s Mobile Ads SDK collects information such as your device’s advertising ID, IP address, approximate location derived from it, device and app information, and how you interact with ads. Google may use this for personalized ads where the law and your choices allow. Where consent is required (for example in the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and some US states), ClearDip asks before showing ads using Google’s consent tool, and you can change your choice anytime in More → Privacy choices. You can reset or delete your advertising ID in Android Settings. Your test readings, pools, notes, and maintenance log are never shared with ad providers, and ClearVoid Studios does not receive the information the ads SDK collects. See how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
- Purchases: Remove ads is a one-time purchase sold and verified by Google Play Billing. Google handles payment details; ClearDip only learns whether it was bought so it can turn ads off or restore that on a new phone.
- More → About shows the app version and build number on your device only (for support). That information is not sent to ClearVoid Studios automatically.
- If you use Share on the More screen (“Tell your friends!”), the App may check whether Facebook, Instagram, or X are installed so it can offer those buttons. That check stays on your device. When you tap a network, the App opens that app with a prefilled message (including a Google Play link). We do not post on your behalf and do not receive what you send or publish.
- Find us on Facebook on the More screen opens the ClearVoid Studios Facebook page in your browser or the Facebook app. ClearDip does not send your data to Facebook; what Facebook collects when you visit is covered by Facebook’s own policies.
Permissions
- ClearDip does not ask for any runtime permissions (no camera, location, contacts, storage, or notifications). Test reminders appear on the Home screen.
- Internet / network state are used to load ads and by Google Play Billing to check and restore Remove ads. Ads need a connection; offline, the App works without them.
- Advertising ID — used by the ads SDK as described above. It is not used after you buy Remove ads.
Children
ClearDip is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
