Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to NoPorn ( aka Nofap Helper ) ("we," "our," or "the app"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your information. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding data collection, use, and protection when you use our content blocking application.

Our Core Privacy Principle: We believe in privacy by design. Your content blocking activity, browsing patterns, and blocked content are processed entirely on your device and are never transmitted to our servers or third parties.

Information We Collect and How We Use It

1. Account Information (Minimal Collection)

When you create an account with NoPorn, we collect:

• Email Address: Used for account authentication, password recovery, and important service notifications
• Display Name (Optional): Used for personalization within the app
• User ID: A unique identifier assigned to your account
• Authentication Token: Managed securely by Firebase Authentication for account security

Purpose: This information is necessary for creating and managing your account, authenticating your login sessions, managing your subscription status, providing account recovery options, and sending critical service-related notifications.

2. Subscription and Billing Information

If you purchase a premium subscription through Google Play Billing:

• Purchase History: Managed entirely by Google Play Store
• Subscription Status: Verified through Google Play Billing APIs
• Receipt Tokens: Used to validate subscription status

Important: We do NOT store your credit card, payment method, or any financial information. All payment processing is handled securely by Google Play Store.

3. On-Device Data (Never Leaves Your Device)

The following data is processed and stored ONLY on your device:

• Blocked Content Detection: URLs, app usage patterns, and content analysis
• NSFW Detection Results: All image analysis happens on-device using TensorFlow Lite/ONNX Runtime
• App Usage Statistics: Time spent, apps monitored, blocking events
• Block Settings: Your custom blocking rules, schedules, and preferences
• Streak Data: Your progress tracking and challenge participation
• Sleep Schedule: Your custom sleep mode settings

This data is NEVER uploaded to our servers or shared with anyone.

4. Challenge and Community Features

When you participate in challenges:

• Challenge Progress: Your streak data for shared challenges
• Public Display Name: Visible to other challenge participants (you control this)
• Challenge ID: Used for joining and tracking challenges

What we DON'T collect: We do NOT collect or share what specific content you blocked, which websites you visited, or your browsing history.

How We Process Your Data

On-Device Processing (Privacy-First Approach)

All content detection and blocking happens directly on your device:

1. Accessibility Service: Monitors screen content locally to detect and block inappropriate material
2. NSFW Detection: Machine learning models (TensorFlow Lite/ONNX Runtime) analyze images on-device
3. URL Filtering: Pattern matching and keyword detection occurs locally
4. Block Overlays: Displayed directly from device storage

No content, screenshots, URLs, or browsing data is ever transmitted to our servers.

Server-Side Processing (Minimal and Necessary)

Our backend servers only handle:

• User authentication (via Firebase)
• Subscription validation (via Google Play Billing)
• Challenge synchronization (only challenge IDs and progress numbers)
• Crash reporting (anonymous, opt-in)

Third-Party Services and Data Sharing

We use the following trusted third-party services:

1. Firebase (Google)

• Service: Firebase Authentication, Firebase Firestore
• Purpose: Secure user authentication and account management
• Data Shared: Email address, user ID, authentication tokens
• Privacy Policy: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy

2. Google Play Services

• Service: Google Sign-In, Google Play Billing
• Purpose: Optional social login, subscription management
• Data Shared: Google account email (only if you choose Google Sign-In), subscription status
