What Keevan Stores

Keevan stores photos and scans of your own cards, IDs, and documents, only what you choose to add yourself. Each item you save can be sorted into a category (Identity, Passport, Driver's License, Health/Insurance, Debit Card, Credit Card, or one you type in yourself), and you can optionally add an expiry date so Keevan can remind you before it lapses.

What Keevan Does Not Collect

Keevan does not ask for a username, an email address, or any account at all. There is nothing to sign up for. Keevan does not collect, transmit, or have any way to access information about anyone who uses it, adult or child. Everything you save stays on your own device. Keevan's own code adds no analytics, no advertising, and no tracking of any kind. The one exception, Google Play's own billing system, is covered on its own terms in the "Google Play" section below.

Permissions Keevan Requests

Keevan asks for three permissions, and explains why each one matters the moment it actually needs it:

• Camera, to photograph a card or document when you choose to add one.
• Notifications, to remind you about an item that's expiring soon, or to tell you if Emergency Backup could not keep your backup file up to date.
• Internet, used for exactly one purpose: processing the one-time purchase that removes the free tier's saved-item limit, handled entirely by Google Play's own payment system. No other feature in Keevan uses this permission, and none of your saved cards, IDs, or documents ever use it either. See "Google Play" below for the full detail.

Keevan does not request access to your photo gallery as a standing permission. When you pick an existing photo, Android's own Photo Picker hands Keevan only the specific photo you selected, nothing else.

How Your Data Is Protected

Every saved photo and document is encrypted using your phone's own hardware security chip (Android Keystore, with StrongBox hardware isolation on phones that support it), the same category of protection banking apps use.

Opening Keevan requires your phone's own lock (fingerprint, face, or PIN), the same one that protects the rest of your phone. You can also turn on, from Settings, entirely at your own choice:

• A separate 6-digit app PIN, for a second lock on top of your phone's own.
• An auto-lock timer that re-locks Keevan after it's been in the background for a while.
• A setting that blocks screenshots and screen recording while Keevan is open.

Backup, Restore, and Emergency Backup

You can create an encrypted backup file of your saved items at any time, protected by a password you choose. You decide where that file is saved. You can restore a backup on any device, including a new phone, by picking the file and entering its password.

Emergency Backup is a separate, optional feature for a specific purpose: letting someone you trust access your vault if you are ever unable to yourself. If you turn it on, Keevan generates a random password, shown to you once, and keeps a backup file at a location you choose automatically up to date in the background (checking once a day, only rewriting the file when your vault has actually changed). Sharing that file and password with someone is always something you actively choose to do.

Important: once you have shared it, there is no way to revoke that access. Treat it the same way you would a spare physical key.

Keeping Your Data Current, Not Sending It Anywhere

Emergency Backup's daily check is the one thing Keevan ever does in the background without you tapping something first. It only ever rewrites the exact file you originally chose, on your own device or the storage location you picked for it. It never sends anything anywhere new.

Your saved cards, IDs, and documents never touch the internet permission described above. That permission exists for one purpose only, covered in full in the next section, and nothing about your actual vault contents is ever part of it.

Google Play

Keevan uses Google Play for two things, both handled entirely by Google's own systems, not by Keevan itself:

• Processing the one-time purchase that removes the free tier's saved-item limit. This is the one real reason Keevan requests the internet permission at all. Your payment details are handled entirely by Google Play; Keevan never sees or stores them.
• Occasionally asking Google Play to show its own official app-review prompt, after you've used the app for a while.

Both are covered by Google's own privacy policy, not this one.

Children's Privacy

Keevan does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children, because it does not collect information from anyone at all. There is no account system and no server of any kind, so there is no mechanism for Keevan to collect information from a child, or from anyone else.

Confirming This Yourself

You do not have to take this policy's word for it. Android's own Data Safety section for Keevan on the Play Store listing, and independent tools like Exodus Privacy, let you check exactly what permissions and trackers an app actually has.

Changes to This Policy

If Keevan's features change in a way that affects your data, this page will be updated, and the date at the top will change.
