Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 14, 2026
Developer: Aetherlink
Contact: support_media@aetherlink.me.uk
This Privacy Policy explains how Video Audio Converter ("the App", "we", "us") handles your information, the permissions we request, and your rights regarding data privacy.
1. On-Device Processing & No Accounts
- 100% Local Processing: All media conversion, trimming, compression, merging, and extraction tasks are executed entirely on your device. Your video and audio files are never uploaded to any external servers, and we have no access to your media contents.
- No Account Required: You do not need to register, create a profile, or provide personal details (such as your name, phone number, or email address) to use the App.
- Cover Art: If you select an image as custom album artwork for an exported MP3, it is embedded directly into the file's metadata locally and is not shared or transmitted elsewhere.
2. File Storage and Export Paths
Exported files are saved directly to your device's public media directories:
- Audio:
/storage/emulated/0/Music/VideoToMp3 - Video:
/storage/emulated/0/Movies/VideoToMp3
If system restrictions prevent access to public media folders, files are stored within the App's private sandbox directory, accessible via your file manager. Uninstalling the App will not remove files already exported to your device's public media library.
3. Device Permissions
The App requests only the permissions strictly necessary to perform its functions:
- Read Media (Audio/Video): Used solely to display and open media files you explicitly choose to edit or convert.
- Write/Save to Media Storage: Used to save your converted files to the directories listed above.
- Modify System Settings (Optional): Requested only if you choose to set an exported audio file as a device ringtone or notification sound.
- Internet Access: Required exclusively for loading in-app advertisements and verifying Pro purchases through Google Play. It is never used to upload or transmit your media files.
4. Locally Stored Preferences
The App stores a minimal set of non-personal operational configurations locally on your device:
- Interface language preference
- Memorized export presets (format, bitrate)
- Cached Pro entitlement status
- Ad personalization consent preferences
These configurations are tied to the local installation and are permanently removed when the App is uninstalled.
5. In-App Purchases (Google Play)
- We offer a one-time purchase to unlock Pro features (Product ID: clipora_pro).
- All transactions are processed and managed securely by Google Play. We do not collect or store your payment details, credit card numbers, or billing addresses.
- The App uses the Google Play Billing API solely to verify your purchase receipt and restore your Pro status across supported devices signed into the same Google account.
6. Advertising and Analytics
The free version of the App displays banner and interstitial advertisements served by Google AdMob:
- AdMob may collect and process device identifiers (such as the Google Advertising ID) and coarse network data (IP address) for ad delivery, fraud prevention, and performance metrics.
- You can manage your preferences between personalized and non-personalized ads within the App's Settings > Ad Privacy, or adjust/reset your Advertising ID directly in your Android system settings.
- Upgrading to Pro permanently removes all third-party advertisements.
7. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum legal age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe that personal data belonging to a minor has been inadvertently transmitted to us, please reach out via our contact email.
8. Updates & Inquiries
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any modifications will be posted here with an updated "Effective Date." Continued use of the App following changes indicates acceptance of the revised terms.
