FilePile Manager Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 29, 2026
Thank you for choosing FilePile Manager! We always prioritize your privacy and strictly adhere to relevant laws and regulations such as the Personal Information Protection Law and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), processing your information in a transparent and compliant manner. This policy clearly explains how we collect, use, and protect your information, and your control over it. We recommend you read it carefully.
If you do not agree to any part of this policy, please do not download, install, or use this application. Once you start using it, it means you fully understand and agree that we process your information in accordance with this policy.
I. What Information We Collect and Why
We adhere to the principle of "collecting only necessary information." All information collection is for better service provision or to ensure security; we do not collect irrelevant data.
1. Automatically Collected Information (No Manual Authorization Required)
Device Basic Data: To ensure the application is compatible with your device and operates stably, we automatically obtain your device model, operating system version, and non-identifiable identifiers such as Android ID and AAID (this information cannot be linked to your real identity).
Application Log Data: If the application crashes, freezes, or experiences other malfunctions, relevant logs (including failure time, configuration parameters, and other statistical information) will be recorded locally on your device. This data is used solely for troubleshooting and repair and will not involve your file content or privacy.
Usage Behavior Data:To optimize the user experience, we will collect statistics on your usage of core functions (such as file management and junk file cleanup frequency), application launches, usage duration, and interactions such as ad clicks and browsing (this type of ad-related data is collected by a third-party ad SDK).
Anonymous Statistical Data:Service traffic, operation paths, and performance data are collected through third-party analytics tools (such as Firebase Analytics). All data is anonymized and aggregated, used solely for overall service optimization, and does not contain any personally identifiable information.
2. Based on Your Authorized Permissions and Information Usage
Application permissions are divided into "Required Permissions" and "Optional Permissions." You can choose whether to grant optional permissions; denying them will not affect the use of core functions:
Required Permissions:Storage Permissions
This is the foundation of file management functionality—whether browsing, moving, copying, deleting files, or unzipping, sharing, or creating folders, access to your device's storage is required. Important Note: We will only use this permission locally on your device to perform the above operations. We will never upload any of your files (documents, images, audio, video, etc.) to our servers or third-party platforms. All file operations are completed locally.
Optional Permissions: Grant as needed, self-controlled
Access Application Usage: After authorization, we can obtain statistics on the storage space used by each application. We will not monitor your specific actions in other applications. The collected statistics are only used within this application and are not uploaded to servers or used to identify your personal information.
Change System Settings: After authorization, you can set audio as ringtones, images as wallpapers, and other personalized operations. This does not modify other core system settings.
Allow Installation of Apps from Unknown Sources: After authorization, we can assist in installing APK files on your device. This only calls the system installation interface and does not record installation information. We recommend that you verify the security of the files before proceeding.
3. Purpose of Information Use
The collected information will only be used for the following scenarios and will not be used for any other purpose without your explicit consent:
To ensure the normal operation of core services;
To analyze data to fix faults and optimize functional logic;
To display personalized advertisements (based on non-identifiable information) to support the free operation of the application;
To conduct security monitoring and prevent risks such as malicious attacks and fraud;
To comply with laws and regulations, judicial orders, or other legal requirements.
II. Will Your Information Be Shared or Disclosed?
We will never sell or rent your information indiscriminately, and will only share or disclose information in the following limited circumstances:
1. Sharing with Third-Party Partners
We will only share anonymized, non-personally identifiable information with authorized partners:
Advertising Partners: Sharing device identifiers (such as AAID) and advertising interaction data for displaying personalized advertisements and monitoring their effectiveness. You can opt out of personalized advertisements through your device settings;
Data Analysis Partners: Sharing anonymized usage behavior and statistical data for generating analysis reports to help us improve our services.

End-to-end encryption of data transmission and storage (e.g., SSL/TLS);
Strict control over information access permissions, ensuring access is only granted to authorized personnel;
Regular security audits, vulnerability patching, and system upgrades;
Privacy protection training for employees, clearly defining confidentiality obligations.
3. Security Incident Explanation
Given the complexity of the network environment and the continuous evolution of cyberattack techniques, we cannot guarantee 100% security for your information. In the unfortunate event of information leakage or loss, we will immediately take necessary measures such as technical remediation and risk control to minimize the impact of the incident. We will also strictly comply with relevant laws and regulations, promptly report the incident to regulatory agencies, and, if necessary, notify you of the relevant situation and response suggestions in a reasonable manner.

If this policy needs to be updated due to business development, revisions to laws and regulations, etc., we will announce it within the application or through official channels, and the updated "effective date" will be marked. Your continued use of the application constitutes acceptance of the revised policy; in the event of significant changes (such as changes in the purpose of information processing, changes in sharing objects, etc.), we will notify you through more prominent methods such as in-application pop-ups.
2. Your Device Control
You can manage permissions and information usage through device settings:
