Last updated: August 20, 2026
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how Popular: Social Status (“Popular,” “we,” or “us”) handles information when you use our app and website.
2. Information you create
Popular may store the simulated notification details you enter, such as names, message text, app choices, avatars, and schedules, so the app can provide its features. Do not enter sensitive personal information or another person’s private information.
3. Device permissions and technical data
Depending on the features you use, the app may request local notification permission. We may receive basic technical information such as device type, operating system, app version, crash diagnostics, and general usage events. We do not read your real messages, contacts, call history, or notifications from other apps.
4. How we use information
We use information to provide and improve Popular, personalize the experience, prevent misuse, maintain security, troubleshoot issues, and comply with law. We do not sell personal information.
5. Sharing
We may share limited information with service providers that help us host, analyze, secure, and support the app. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect users, the public, or our rights. Popular is not affiliated with the third-party platforms whose names or styles may appear in simulations.
6. Retention and deletion
We keep information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described here. You may request deletion of account or support information by contacting us. Some information may remain where required for security, legal, or accounting reasons.
7. Children’s privacy
Popular is intended for general audiences and is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate. Users under the age of majority should use the app with a parent or guardian’s permission.
8. Your choices and updates
You can decline notification permissions, remove content within the app where available, and contact us about privacy requests. We may update this policy from time to time by posting a new version here.
