Privacy Policy for ContextKeep
Last updated: October 3, 2026
Shakthi Tech Solutions LLC provides ContextKeep as an ad-supported app with an optional paid ad-free subscription. This policy explains what information the app uses and how it is handled.
Information We Collect and Use
ContextKeep lets you save personal context such as notes, tasks, events, checklists, links, contact details, addresses, document details, payment or expense details, medical notes, optional current-location coordinates, tags, recommendation sources, and reminder settings. Depending on how you use the app, this content may include personal information such as phone numbers, addresses, health-related information, financial-related information, or other sensitive notes that you choose to enter.
When you sign in, your entries may be synced to Firebase Firestore so they can be available across your devices.
ContextKeep uses Google sign-in through Firebase Authentication. Firebase may provide basic account information such as your user ID, email address, and profile information needed to authenticate your account.
ContextKeep stores app data locally on your device in an encrypted database. The local database encryption key is protected using Android Keystore.
Cloud-synced data stored in Firebase Firestore is not end-to-end encrypted by ContextKeep before upload. It is protected using Firebase and Google Cloud security controls and your authenticated account access.
If you save a link, ContextKeep may connect to that link from your device to fetch a basic preview such as page title or description. The website you saved may receive normal network information such as your IP address and user agent.
If you choose to use the current-location option for an address or venue note, ContextKeep requests Android location permission and stores the captured latitude and longitude with that entry. ContextKeep may also use Android reverse geocoding to suggest address and city text for that saved place. Location is captured only when you tap the location action; the app does not continuously track your location in the background.
Starting with version 1.0.6, ContextKeep does not access your location in the background or provide nearby-place reminders. Older versions offered optional arrival reminders using Android geofencing and background location permission, including when the app was closed; update the app to remove this feature.
If you use export, backup, QR, or sharing features, ContextKeep sends the selected entry data or backup text to the Android share sheet, QR display, or app you choose. You control which destination receives that exported data.
Third-Party Services
ContextKeep relies on a small number of third-party service providers for account sign-in, cloud sync, advertising, app functionality, and optional subscription billing. These providers may process information according to their own privacy policies.
The main providers currently used for those functions are:
AdMob may use device identifiers, ad interactions, approximate location, and other signals to provide, limit, and measure ads. ContextKeep does not use your saved note content, saved contacts, saved addresses, saved medical notes, saved payment details, saved document details, or precise saved coordinates for ads. Google Play Billing processes purchase and subscription information for the optional ad-free subscription.
Where required, ContextKeep asks for advertising privacy choices before requesting ads. You can reopen the available consent choices from Settings > Ads and privacy. If consent information cannot be obtained and no valid previous consent is available, ads remain disabled.
Log Data and Diagnostics
If the app encounters an error, third-party services may collect diagnostic information such as device type, operating system version, app configuration, time of use, crash details, and network-related metadata.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your ContextKeep entries. Your synced entries are stored under your authenticated user account. Data may be processed by the service providers described above to operate authentication, cloud sync, ads, billing, sharing, and diagnostics.
Data Retention and Deletion
Entries stored locally remain on your device until you delete app data or uninstall the app. Entries synced to Firebase remain associated with your account unless deleted through the app or by contacting us at shakthitechsolutionsllc@gmail.com.
You can request deletion in the app from Settings > Delete account and cloud data. This deletes your ContextKeep account, cloud-synced entries, and local entries on that device. If you have an active Pro subscription, cancel it separately in Google Play subscriptions. You can also request deletion at shakthitechsolutionsllc@gmail.com.
Security
ContextKeep uses Android platform security features, an encrypted local database, and Firebase access controls to protect user data. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we use reasonable safeguards for the type of data the app handles.
If you choose to store sensitive information such as medical, financial, document, or address details, please remember that syncing those entries to the cloud means they will be stored in your Firebase-backed account data and not only on your device.
Children Privacy
ContextKeep is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, contact us at shakthitechsolutionsllc@gmail.com so we can take appropriate action.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date.
