1Who we are
Angoleto is an offline floor plan app for measuring rooms, drawing plans, placing furniture at real size, looking at the result in 3D and exporting drawings, developed by Zydeno. This policy explains what happens to your projects, photos and settings, and what happens if you choose to contact us at [email protected].
Developer identity. Zydeno is the developer name under which Angoleto is published on Google Play, as shown on the app’s store listing. For the purposes of data-protection law, the developer is responsible (the “controller”) for the limited personal data described in this policy that actually reaches us, such as e-mails you send us. Data that stays on your device is under your control.
2What this policy covers
This policy covers the Angoleto Android app. It does not cover the camera app, document providers, cloud storage, apps you share to, print services, printers, measuring devices, browser or e-mail service you choose to use. Their own terms and privacy policies govern the data you give them.
The app works without an account or an internet connection. The app has no ads and no analytics.
3What the developer does not collect
The app does not send the developer your plans, measurements, room names, notes, photos, reference images, furniture layouts, worksheets, prices, exported files, settings or device information. It has no account registration, no advertising SDK, no analytics SDK and no third-party crash reporter, and it does not request location, contacts, camera, microphone, phone, photo-library or storage-wide access.
We do not receive, sell or share your in-app data, use it for advertising or train models on it. Angoleto never asks for your name or address. A project name, an address in a title block, room labels or notes are optional text you type yourself; they stay in your project until you choose to export, share or print it.
4Project data on your device
Angoleto stores its working data in Android app-private storage (local files and a preferences store). Depending on how you use the app, this includes:
- Projects: levels, rooms, walls, openings, ceilings, columns, wall service points (for example sockets or pipes you mark), furniture with its sizes and colours, notes, labels and optional title-block text.
- Measurement records: the value and unit you typed or received from a measuring device, whether it is Measured, Estimated or Proposed, locks, diagonal checks and closure differences.
- Layout variants, revision history and the undo journal, and drafts of unfinished edits so the app can recover after an interruption.
- Photos you attach to a room, wall or point, and reference images or a PDF page you import to trace over (see Photos, camera and reference images).
- Worksheet inputs such as paint coverage, allowances, coats and any prices you enter.
- Thumbnails and temporary export files in the app cache.
- Settings: language, each unit choice, paper size, drawing standards, theme, motion, haptics, snapping and precision.
All drawing, constraint solving, area and quantity calculation, 3D rendering and export generation run on your device. The 3D view is drawn by the phone’s graphics processor from your own plan; no model, texture or furniture catalogue is downloaded.
5Photos, camera and reference images
Taking a photo. When you choose Take photo on a photo pin, Angoleto asks your phone’s camera app to take one picture and save it into a private file that only Angoleto can read. Angoleto itself does not request the camera permission and does not see the camera preview. The camera app you use works under its own settings and policy.
Choosing a file. When you choose an existing image or a PDF page, Android’s document picker gives Angoleto access to that one file only. The app copies it into the project and then no longer needs the original. It does not browse your photo library.
Photo metadata. Angoleto stores the photo file as it received it. If your camera saved metadata in the image, such as the time, the camera model or the location where the photo was taken, that metadata stays inside the copy. Angoleto reads only the orientation tag so the photo is displayed upright; it does not read, show or send location metadata. A full project archive contains the original photo files with their metadata, so anyone you give an archive to can read it. Turn off location tagging in your camera app if you do not want it recorded.
Reference images are used only as a background to trace over at the scale you set. Angoleto does not recognise rooms, objects or people in them.
6No internet access from the app
The current Android app does not declare the INTERNET permission. It has no backend, external API requests, automatic uploads, remote downloads or cloud synchronisation. Furniture templates, materials, fonts and help text are bundled in the app.
When you open a link (this policy, the Terms or a support e-mail address), the app hands the address to your own browser or e-mail app. Your browser then visits the site, and the website host can process ordinary web-request data such as your IP address under its own policy. Nothing is sent by Angoleto itself, and a support e-mail is sent only if you choose to send it. Camera apps, document providers, share recipients and print services can use their own network access as described below.
7Manual export, import, sharing and printing
Drawings and data files. You can export a plan as PDF, PNG, SVG, DXF or CSV, or save a 3D view as an image. Angoleto writes the file to the destination you pick in Android’s document picker, or prepares a temporary copy in its cache and passes only that file to the app you choose in the Android share sheet. A drawing contains what you put into it: room names, dimensions, notes, an optional address or title-block text and, if you include the photo appendix, the attached photos.
Full project archive. In Your data you can save one .angoleto archive (a ZIP file) with your projects, revisions, measurement records, photos, reference images and settings, plus integrity checksums. It is a complete copy of your private project data and is not password-encrypted by Angoleto.
Import. Only the archive or image you select in the system picker is read. The app validates it locally and shows a preview before anything changes. Importing does not send the file to Zydeno.
Printing. When you choose Print, the document is passed to Android’s print framework and your selected print service and printer. These may transmit the document over a network, keep print jobs or use a cloud service. Check their settings before printing a plan that shows an address or personal notes.
Your destination matters. The system picker can offer local storage or a cloud document provider. A cloud provider, recipient app or printer receives the file you choose to give it, under its own policy. This is a transfer you start, not automatic synchronisation. Zydeno receives no copy unless you deliberately send one to support.
8Permissions and device access
The current app does not request internet, location, camera, microphone, contacts, phone, notification, photo-library, storage-wide, all-files, Bluetooth or Accessibility-service access. Android also adds an app-scoped internal permission used by its support libraries; it does not grant access to your personal files or sensors, and the advertising-ID permission is removed from the app.
Region. To choose sensible default units, paper size, number format, furniture sizes and area conventions, the app reads your device’s region locally: the country reported by your SIM or network through Android’s standard telephony information (no permission is needed and no phone number or subscriber identifier is read) and the region of your system language. This value is used on the device only; it is not transmitted to us or anyone else, and you can change every unit in Settings.
Measuring devices. Some laser distance meters can be paired with your phone in Android’s Bluetooth settings as a keyboard. While Survey entry is open, Angoleto reads the numbers such a device types, and uses Android’s input-device information on the phone to keep input from that device separate from other keyboards. Pairing is handled by Android; the app has no Bluetooth permission and sends nothing to the device.
Haptics. The app uses your phone’s standard haptic feedback, which you can switch off in the app or in Android.
9Your controls, backups and deletion
You can rename, duplicate and delete projects, levels and variants, remove photos, reference images and notes, change every setting, export a full archive, and use Settings, Your data, Delete all to remove all local projects and settings after a separate confirmation. Export an archive first if you want to keep your work.
Automatic Android backup is disabled and the app’s extraction rules exclude cloud backup and device-to-device transfer. To move your projects to another phone, save a manual archive and import it yourself. If the device is lost or app storage is cleared without a usable archive, the developer cannot restore your data.
Clearing Angoleto’s storage in Android Settings or uninstalling it removes app-private data, including temporary files. Deleting items in the app does not delete copies you saved elsewhere, files received by another app, print jobs or paper copies, or the original photos in your camera’s gallery; remove those separately.
10Legal bases for processing
Where the EU or UK GDPR, or a similar law such as the Swiss FADP or Brazil’s LGPD, applies, these are the legal bases for the limited processing described in this policy:
| Processing | Where it happens | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Storing your entries and settings in the app’s private storage | Your device only; we never receive it | Necessary to provide the app you choose to use (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). Storage on your device is strictly necessary for that service, so no separate consent is needed under the ePrivacy rules. |
| E-mails you send to [email protected] | The developer and its e-mail provider | Our legitimate interest in answering you and improving the app (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or steps you ask us to take (Art. 6(1)(b)); keeping records where the law requires it (Art. 6(1)(c)). |
The app makes no automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you, does not build a profile of you and does not analyse special categories of personal data. Room plans, photos, notes and an optional address can reveal where and how you live; they stay on your device unless you export, share or print them, and the developer receives none of them.
11How long information is kept
Saved project data stays on your device until you remove it, clear app storage or uninstall the app. Revision history, drafts and the undo journal support recovery; deleting a visible item is not a guarantee of forensic erasure of every historical byte on the device.
Generated export and share files may remain in the app cache until Android or the app clears them. Documents you saved through the system picker remain under your control outside the app and may outlast uninstallation.
Support e-mails. We keep e-mails you send us, and our replies, only as long as needed to handle your request and any follow-up, normally no longer than 24 months after the last message, unless the law requires us to keep them longer or we need them to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. You can ask us to delete them earlier.
12Your privacy rights
Privacy laws in many countries give you rights over your personal data. Because Angoleto keeps your data on your phone and the developer does not receive it, most of these rights are in your own hands: you can view, correct, export and delete everything in the app (§9) and withdraw permissions in Android Settings. For data you have sent us, such as e-mails, write to [email protected].
EU and UK representative. The individual developer does not process personal data of people in the EU/EEA or the UK except occasional e-mails you choose to send to support. This occasional processing does not involve large-scale processing of special-category or criminal-offence data and is unlikely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms. Under Article 27(2)(a) GDPR and Article 27(2)(a) UK GDPR, it does not require an EU or UK representative, so none is appointed. Contact us directly at [email protected]; you can also complain to your local supervisory authority.
Rights by region. A summary; the law where you live decides the details.
- European Union, EEA, United Kingdom and Switzerland (GDPR, UK GDPR, Swiss FADP): access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, objection to processing based on legitimate interests, withdrawal of consent at any time, and complaint to a supervisory authority, for example in the country where you live or work (in the UK, the Information Commissioner’s Office).
- United States (California CCPA as amended by the CPRA, and the comprehensive privacy laws of other states such as Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas and Oregon): to know and access, delete, correct and port personal information; to opt out of its sale or sharing, of targeted advertising and of profiling; to limit the use of sensitive personal information; to appeal a refusal; to use an authorised agent; and not to be discriminated against for using these rights. Notice for California residents: in the last 12 months the developer has not collected personal information through the app, other than e-mails you chose to send us. We have not sold or shared personal information, and we do not use sensitive personal information. Global Privacy Control signals are honoured where the law requires; today there is nothing to opt out of.
- Canada (PIPEDA and provincial laws, including Québec’s Law 25): access, correction and withdrawal of consent; complaints to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or, in Québec, the Commission d’accès à l’information.
- Brazil (LGPD): confirmation of processing, access, correction, anonymisation, blocking or deletion, portability, information about sharing and revocation of consent; complaints to the ANPD.
- Japan (APPI): disclosure, correction, suspension of use or deletion; complaints to the Personal Information Protection Commission.
- South Korea (PIPA): access, correction, deletion, suspension of processing and withdrawal of consent; complaints to the Personal Information Protection Commission or the KISA privacy centre. The person responsible for personal information is the developer, reachable at [email protected].
- Australia and New Zealand (Privacy Act 1988, Privacy Act 2020): access and correction; complaints to the OAIC or the New Zealand Privacy Commissioner.
- Other countries (for example India’s DPDP Act, Singapore’s PDPA, South Africa’s POPIA or Türkiye’s KVKK): the rights your local law gives you. Write to us and we will respond in line with it.
How we respond. We answer within one month, or sooner or later where your local law sets another period (for example 45 days under the CCPA), and we may extend it where the law allows. We may ask for information to confirm that a request comes from you. Requests are free unless they are manifestly unfounded or excessive. If we cannot do what you ask, we explain why and how you can appeal or complain.
13International users
Angoleto is available in many countries. The developer does not receive the data you keep in the app, so we do not transfer it anywhere.
If you e-mail us, your message is processed by our e-mail provider and may be stored on servers outside your country. Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies to such a transfer, it relies on an adequacy decision, on standard contractual clauses offered by the provider, or on the transfer being necessary to answer your request.
This policy is written in English. If a translation is offered, the English version prevails unless your local law requires otherwise.
14Security
Angoleto uses Android’s application sandbox for private working data. It does not add a password-protected vault or promise encryption beyond what your device provides. Archives and exported drawings are ordinary files. Use a device screen lock, keep your device updated and choose trusted destinations.
No device or storage system is perfectly secure. Someone with access to an unlocked, compromised or rooted device, an exported archive or a shared drawing may read it. A floor plan with an address, photos of your home or notes about locks, alarms or valuables can be sensitive: think before you share it, and do not send private files to support unless they are needed for your request.
15Ads, purchases and future versions
Today. The current version of Angoleto is free of charge, shows no ads, has no in-app purchases or subscriptions, and contains no advertising, analytics or payment SDKs. This describes the app as it is now, not a promise about future versions. Future versions may introduce advertising, paid features, in-app purchases or subscriptions, or other optional services.
If ads are introduced. Ads would be supplied by a third-party ad network, for example Google AdMob. Ad networks typically process your device’s advertising ID, IP address, approximate location derived from the IP address, device and app information and your interactions with ads, in order to show ads, limit repetition, measure performance and prevent fraud, and, only where you allow it, to personalise ads. Ads would also require the app to connect to the internet, which the current version cannot do.
If purchases or subscriptions are introduced. They would be processed by Google Play’s billing system. Google handles your payment details under the Google Privacy Policy. We would receive only what is needed to deliver and verify a purchase, such as a purchase token, the product, its status, the country and the currency, never your full card or bank details.
Before any such change we will update this policy with a new effective date and version, describing what data is processed, by whom, why and how you can control it; update the Google Play Data safety section; mention the change in the release notes; ask for your consent where the law requires it (for example for personalised ads and non-essential access to your device in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, through a consent tool that meets Google’s requirements); and offer the opt-outs the law requires (for example under US state privacy laws). The change applies only from the app version that introduces it. Data already stored in the app will not be used for advertising without telling you first and, where required, getting your consent. We will not knowingly show personalised ads to children (§16).
16Age limits
Angoleto is a home-planning tool for adults and is not directed to children under 13. A parent or guardian who believes a child has sent us personal information can contact support to request its deletion. We cannot inspect or remotely delete data that exists only on your device.
Age limits. In the EEA and the UK we also treat as a child anyone under the age at which a child may consent to online services in their country (between 13 and 16). If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has sent us personal data, for example by e-mail, write to [email protected] and we will delete it. If a future version includes advertising, it will be set up in line with applicable children’s privacy rules, such as COPPA in the United States, and Google Play’s policies.
17Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when we change the app (including any change described in §15), when the services the app uses change, or when the law changes. The effective date and version at the top of this page show which version applies, and the version history (§18) summarises every change.
For a material change, for example new data leaving your device, ads or purchases, we update this page and the Google Play Data safety section before the app version with that change is published, describe it in the release notes, and ask for your consent in the app where the law requires it. Changes do not apply retroactively to data processed before them. Earlier versions are available on request from [email protected].
