- Proxy traffic is never stored or sent
- No accounts — only a random install ID
- Ads only for free users, after 7 days
1. Proxy traffic
- Traffic passing through the app is only forwarded to its destination on your phone; its content and access logs are never stored or sent.
- The connected-device list (address, name, bytes) lives in memory and disappears when sharing stops.
2. Ads (free users, after 7 days)
- Google AdMob processes the advertising ID (IDFA/AAID), device and app information and IP address (approximate location) to serve and measure ads.
- On iOS we ask for tracking permission; if you decline, only non-personalized ads are shown. In the EEA/UK we ask for consent first.
- Pro users see no ads. How Google uses data: policies.google.com
3. Purchase verification
- When you buy Pro, the store receipt (transaction ID / purchase token) and a random install ID created by the app are sent to the HotspotOn verification server (hotspoton-api.ezbuilder.app), which checks them with the App Store or Google Play.
- We never receive your name, email or payment details (the stores handle payment).
- We keep them as long as needed to verify your purchase and delete them on request.
4. Stored on your device
- Settings such as port, auto-start, proxy password, app-hotspot name and password and Pro status stay on the device, are excluded from backups and are deleted with the app.
5. Permissions
- Local network (iOS): lets your devices on the same hotspot connect.
- Notifications (Android): shows that sharing is on, with a stop button.
- Nearby devices (Android 13+) / location (Android 12 and below): only to open the app hotspot (Wi-Fi Direct); no location is collected.
- App Tracking Transparency (iOS): decides whether free-user ads are personalized.
6. Children
- The app is not directed at children under 14.
7. Contact & deletion
- Email builder.ez@gmail.com. We reply within 7 business days.
