1 Introduction
Lumova Technologies (Private) Limited ("we", "our", or "us") built Zimma as a free personal task management application. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding information when you use Zimma on your Android device.
Zimma is designed from the ground up to be a privacy-first application. We take your privacy seriously — your personal task and schedule data stays exclusively on your device and is never transmitted to Lumova Technologies or shared with third parties. Zimma uses a small set of anonymous Firebase services to help us improve app stability and performance — these are configured to never collect your personal data.
By using Zimma, you agree to this Privacy Policy.
2 Information We Collect
The short answer: Your personal data — None.
Zimma does not collect, store, transmit, or process any personal information. Your personal task and schedule data stays on your device. Zimma uses anonymous Firebase services for crash reporting, analytics, and push notifications — these are configured to never collect your personal data.
Data You Enter in the App
When you use Zimma, you may enter:
- Your display name
- Task titles, notes, and descriptions
- Task categories, priorities, and assigned persons
- Due dates, times, and repeat schedules
All of this data is stored exclusively on your device's local storage using Android's SharedPreferences. It never leaves your device. We cannot see it, access it, or retrieve it under any circumstances.
Automatically Collected Data — Firebase Services
Zimma uses the following Firebase services which collect limited anonymous technical data. No personal information, task titles, notes, assigned persons, or schedule data, or financial data are ever included.
Firebase Analytics
Zimma uses Firebase Analytics to understand how the app is used in aggregate. Firebase Analytics collects:
- App open events and screen views
- Session duration and app engagement
- Device model, Android version, and country (not precise location)
- App version
- Advertising ID (a resettable, non-permanent device identifier) — collected as part of Firebase Analytics' standard operation, used only for aggregate analytics measurement
Firebase Analytics does not collect names, task titles, notes, assigned persons, or schedule data, or any personally identifying information. Zimma does not display advertisements and does not use the Advertising ID for ad targeting or personalized advertising — it is collected solely as part of Firebase Analytics' standard measurement functionality.
Firebase Crashlytics
Zimma uses Firebase Crashlytics to automatically detect and report app crashes. Crashlytics collects:
- Anonymous crash reports with technical stack traces
- Device model and Android OS version
- App version at the time of the crash
Crashlytics does not include any personal data, task titles, notes, assigned persons, or schedule data, or identifiable information in crash reports.
Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM)
Zimma includes the Firebase Cloud Messaging library as part of its Firebase integration, but does not currently use it to deliver task reminders. All task reminders in Zimma are generated and scheduled entirely on your device using Android's local notification system — no server is involved in reminder delivery. Should Zimma introduce server-delivered notifications in a future update, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly before that feature is released.
Local notifications generated on your device will display your task title as the notification heading — this is processed entirely on your device and is never transmitted to Lumova Technologies or Firebase. Notification permission is optional and can be revoked at any time in your device settings.
3 How We Use Your Information
Your personal data is used solely by the app itself, on your device. Lumova Technologies does not access or process your personal data. Anonymous technical data collected by Firebase (screen views, crash reports, performance metrics) is used solely to improve app stability and performance — never for advertising or profiling. All data you enter in Zimma is used solely by the app itself, on your device, to provide task management features including reminders, categories, and recurring task scheduling.
4 Notifications and Permissions
Zimma may request permission to send you local notifications on your device. These notifications are:
- Generated entirely on your device — no server is involved
- Used only to remind you of tasks you have scheduled
- Never used to send marketing, advertising, or third-party messages
- Fully optional — the app works without notification permission
• POST_NOTIFICATIONS — to send task reminders at the times you choose.
• SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM — to fire reminders at the exact time you set, not approximately.
• RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED — to restore scheduled reminders after the phone restarts.
• REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS — to keep reminders reliable on Samsung and other Android devices that aggressively manage battery.
None of these permissions allow Zimma to access your personal data, contacts, camera, microphone, or location.
5 Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not share your data with anyone — because we do not have it.
Zimma does not integrate with:
- Any advertising network
- Any advertising analytics platform (e.g. Mixpanel, Amplitude, Google Ads)
- Any social media platform
- Any cloud storage or sync service
- Any third-party SDK other than Firebase (Analytics, Crashlytics, and Cloud Messaging)
6 Data Storage and Security
All data entered in Zimma is stored locally on your Android device using SharedPreferences — Android's built-in secure local storage. This data is:
- Stored only on your device
- Protected by your device's built-in security (screen lock, encryption if enabled)
- Not accessible to other apps on your device (Android sandboxing)
- Not backed up to any Lumova server — ever
- Not backed up to Google Drive unless you have enabled automatic app backup in Android settings
7 Data Deletion
You have complete control over your data at all times.
Delete All Data
Within Zimma: go to Settings → Hard Reset. This permanently removes all tasks, categories, people, and settings stored by the app on your device. This action cannot be undone.
Uninstall
Uninstalling Zimma removes all locally stored personal data permanently. Anonymous technical data previously processed by Firebase (crash reports, analytics) is subject to Google's data retention policies and cannot be deleted from Firebase servers.
8 Children's Privacy
Zimma does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. The app is safe for all ages. Firebase services collect only anonymous technical data and are configured to exclude any personal data. No personal information is collected from any user of any age.
9 Internet Permission
Zimma does not require an internet connection to function. All features — task management, reminders, categories, and recurring schedules — work fully offline.
Zimma declares the INTERNET permission solely for Firebase services (Analytics, Crashlytics, and Cloud Messaging) to send anonymous technical data. Your personal task data, notes, and schedule information are never transmitted over the internet.
10 Changes to This Privacy Policy
If we ever update this Privacy Policy, we will update the Effective Date at the top of this document and release a new version of the app with the updated policy. Continued use of Zimma after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
