In short: the text of your reminders and notes stays on your device. What goes out is anonymous information about how reminders work - whether notifications arrive, how you close them and which topics your reminders and emoji searches belong to - plus feedback, if you write and send it yourself.

The following is stored in your phone's memory. It is not sent to us or anyone else, is not synchronised and is not backed up to our servers (the app has no servers):
All of it is deleted together with the app, or via Settings → Apps → Pora → Storage → Clear data.
The app uses the Yandex AppMetrica analytics service. Its job is to keep failures in delivering your reminders from going unnoticed: if notifications stop arriving on your phone model, we see it in the data and can fix it without waiting for you to write in. What is sent:
What is not sent to analytics: reminder texts, note texts, the words you type in the emoji search, and the emoji themselves. This is enforced by how the app is built, not by a promise: the check that records an event rejects the whole event if it contains a field for your text or an emoji. The check has exactly one named exception - the text of your feedback, which you wrote in the form and sent yourself. There are no other exceptions, and none can be added without changing this page.
What the app never collects at all: name, email, phone number, payment details, contacts, messages, photos or files, location (the location module is not included in the build), advertising identifiers (the advertising module is not included in the build). The app has no sign-up and no accounts.
| Data | What you get |
|---|---|
| Interaction events, installation code | Undelivered notifications show up in the data, so we fix them without waiting for you to write in. Otherwise a problem specific to your phone model would go unnoticed |
| Device and app identifiers | Your records stay separate from everyone else's - which is what makes it possible to find and delete yours by your installation code |
| Reminder topic (from version 0.1.5) | Templates and suggestions grow around what people actually use the app for, instead of what we imagine they use it for |
| Emoji search topic (from version 0.1.10) | Search finds the right emoji from the first word, and the set gains the emoji that were missing |
| Crash reports | A failure that could stop a reminder from arriving gets fixed sooner |
| Rating and feedback text (from version 0.1.5) | Whatever got in your way reaches the developer directly - and gets an answer |
The data is not used for advertising, profiling or automated decision-making about you, and is not sold. The app contains no ads.
The only recipient is Yandex LLC as the provider of the AppMetrica analytics service, processing the data on our behalf. Service terms: yandex.com/legal/metrica_termsofuse; Yandex privacy policy: yandex.com/legal/confidential. The data is not shared with anyone else. Transmission is encrypted (HTTPS).
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Notifications | To show a reminder. Without it the app is useless |
| Exact alarms | To fire at the appointed time rather than "at some point". If the permission is not granted, reminders keep working but may be late |
| Start after reboot | To restore the schedule after the phone is switched off |
| Internet | To send anonymous analytics. The reminders themselves work fully offline |
The website uses the Yandex Metrica web analytics service. It places cookies in your browser and collects visit statistics: which pages are opened, where the visitor came from, device and browser type, and network address.
On the home page malkvlab.com and on the app page malkvlab.com/pora/, Webvisor is on: it records scrolling, pointer movement and clicks. On all other pages it is off.
This helps us see which sections are read and where a page is unclear, and make it clearer.
The data is processed by Yandex LLC under the terms at yandex.com/legal/metrica_termsofuse.
You can opt out by blocking cookies in your browser settings or by installing the Yandex Metrica blocker: yandex.com/support/metrica/general/opt-out.html.
The app is not intended for or directed at children. We do not knowingly collect children's data.
The current version always lives at this address; the version date is shown at the top. If the set of collected data changes, we will update both this page and the Data safety form in Google Play.
