Privacy Policy

Game Booster by Xypher Labs — Last updated: April 14, 2026

    Summary: Game Booster does NOT collect, store, or share your personal data with any third party. All device performance data stays on your device. We use Firebase Analytics for anonymous usage statistics only.

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Xypher Labs ("we", "us", "our") handles information when you use the Game Booster application ("App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please uninstall the App.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Data That Stays On Your Device (Never Transmitted)

The following data is collected and stored locally on your device only and is never sent to our servers or any third party:

Device CPU usage, RAM usage, GPU estimation, temperature readings
Gaming Installed game list, game session history, boost results
Profile XP, level, total boosts, optimization score
Settings Your preferences (DND, brightness, rotation, overlay settings)
Network Speed test results (download, upload, ping) — tested against Cloudflare CDN

2.2 Data Collected by Third-Party SDKs

SDK	Data Collected	Purpose
Firebase Analytics	Anonymous app usage events (screen views, feature usage, crash-free rate)	Improve app quality and understand feature adoption
Firebase Crashlytics	Crash logs, device model, OS version, stack traces	Identify and fix bugs
Google AdMob	Advertising ID, device info for ad targeting	Display relevant advertisements

These SDKs operate under their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them:

2.3 Data We Do NOT Collect

We do NOT collect your name, email, phone number, or address
We do NOT access your photos, contacts, messages, or call logs
We do NOT collect your location data
We do NOT track your browsing history
We do NOT sell any data to third parties
We do NOT create user accounts or require sign-in

3. Permissions We Request

Game Booster requests certain Android permissions to function. Here is exactly why each permission is needed:

Permission	Why We Need It
INTERNET	Speed tests (Cloudflare), Firebase analytics/crash reporting
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE	Check network connectivity before speed tests
KILL_BACKGROUND_PROCESSES	Free RAM by closing background apps during boost
SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW	Display FPS/performance overlay while gaming
ACCESS_NOTIFICATION_POLICY	Enable Do Not Disturb mode during gaming
WRITE_SETTINGS	Control screen brightness and rotation during boost
PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS	Detect which game is running for auto-boost
FOREGROUND_SERVICE	Run performance monitoring in background
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED	Auto-start monitoring after device restart (if enabled)
POST_NOTIFICATIONS	Show boost results, cooling alerts, reminders
VIBRATE	Haptic feedback on boost completion

4. Data Storage & Security

All user data (game profiles, sessions, settings, XP) is stored locally in an encrypted Room database and Android DataStore on your device. We do not operate any servers that store your personal data.

Speed tests connect to Cloudflare CDN servers — these connections use HTTPS encryption.

5. Advertising

Game Booster may display advertisements through Google AdMob. AdMob may collect device information and advertising identifiers to serve relevant ads.

You can opt out of personalized advertising in your device settings: Settings > Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalization.

Premium users who purchase an ad-free subscription will not see any advertisements, and ad-related data collection will be disabled.

6. In-App Purchases

Game Booster offers optional premium subscriptions through Google Play Billing. All payment processing is handled by Google Play — we never see or store your payment information (credit card, billing address, etc.).

7. Children's Privacy

Game Booster is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.

8. Data Retention & Deletion

Since all user data is stored locally on your device:

To delete all data: Uninstall the App, or go to Settings > Apps > Game Booster > Clear Data
Firebase data: Anonymous analytics data is retained by Google for up to 14 months, then automatically deleted
Ad data: You can reset your advertising ID in device settings

9. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

Access the data we hold about you (limited to Firebase anonymous analytics)
Request deletion of your data
Opt out of personalized advertising
Withdraw consent for data processing

To exercise these rights, contact us at the email below.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes through an in-app notification or by updating the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance.
