Status Saver — Privacy Policy

Last updated: 21 August 2026

Status Saver ("the app") is developed by Moses Olara (Labwor Technologies). This policy explains what information the app handles.

What the app does with your media

The app reads the status photos and videos that WhatsApp keeps on your phone after you view them, and lets you save copies to your own gallery. All of this happens entirely on your device. Your photos, videos, contacts, and messages are never collected, uploaded, or shared by the app.

Permissions the app asks for

• Status folder access — a one-time folder permission so the app can show statuses you have viewed.
• Photos & videos — so the app can show which statuses you already saved and list them in the Saved tab.
• Display over other apps (optional) — for the floating Save/Share buttons.
• Usage access (optional) — only to detect when a status is on screen so the floating buttons appear at the right moment. This information never leaves your device.
• Notifications — to show the control notification while the floating buttons are on.

Advertising

The app shows ads through Google AdMob. AdMob may collect device identifiers (such as the Advertising ID), approximate location derived from IP address, and ad-interaction data to serve and measure ads, as described in Google's Privacy Policy and AdMob's data practices. In the European Economic Area and the UK you will be asked for consent before ads are shown, and you can change your choice anytime in the app's Settings → Privacy options. You can remove all ads with a one-time purchase.

Purchases

The "Remove ads" purchase is processed by Google Play. The app never sees your payment details.

Data sharing and retention

The app itself collects no personal data, keeps no accounts, and has no servers. Media you save stays in your phone's gallery under the StatusSaver folder until you delete it.

Children

The app is not directed at children under 13.

Your choices

• Revoke any permission anytime in Android Settings → Apps → Status Saver.
• Delete saved media from the Saved tab or your gallery.
• Uninstalling the app removes all app data except media you chose to save.

Data deletion requests

Status Saver (by Moses Olara, Labwor Technologies) keeps no accounts and runs no servers, so there is no app-side personal data to delete. The only data associated with your device is the advertising data collected by Google AdMob (device identifiers, approximate location derived from IP address, and ad-interaction data), which Google retains according to Google's retention policy.

To request deletion of this data:

1. Email molarag21996@gmail.com with the subject "Data deletion request". We will confirm within 30 days and forward the request to Google where applicable.
2. You can also delete or reset your device's Advertising ID in Android Settings → Privacy → Ads, which unlinks previously collected ad data.

What is deleted and what is kept: all advertising data linked to your Advertising ID is covered by the request; media files you chose to save remain in your phone's gallery under your control until you delete them, and uninstalling the app removes all other app data from your device.
