Developer: L.G.M. — Individual developer publishing under the brand name "Scentsaga"
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Scentsaga (“the App”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) handles user information.
Scentsaga is a client-only, offline-capable perfume-creation tool. The App does not collect, store, transmit, sell, or share any personal data on our own servers, because no servers exist and no user accounts are created.
All data processed by the App remains strictly on the user’s device, unless the user chooses to export or share it through their own actions.
The App is intended for users aged 18 and older.
2. Information Collection
We, the developer, do not directly collect or process personal information. However, some third-party services integrated into the App may collect data as described in Section 3.
We do not collect, store, transfer, track, or process:
- Names
- Emails
- Passwords
- Images
- Identifiers
- Usage data
- IP addresses
- Analytics
- Crash reports
- Financial information
No data is transmitted to us at any point.
3. Third-Party SDKs and Their Data Collection
While we do not collect data, Google Play-provided third-party modules embedded in the App may collect certain data to enable their services. These third-party services process data based on their own legal grounds, including user consent and legitimate interest, in accordance with their respective privacy policies.
3.1 Google Ads (AdMob)
Google Ads may collect data such as:
- Approximate Location
- Device or other IDs, including Advertising ID (AD_ID)

Google Ads data practices: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
3.2 Google Play Billing
Used to process in-app purchases (such as forgotten password removal)
Google may collect:
- Purchase-related identifiers
- Transaction identifiers
- Device identifiers
- Fraud-prevention data
Google Play Billing data practices: https://payments.google.com/payments/privacynotice
The developer receives no personal information collected by Google Play Billing; all purchase data remains with Google.
4. Permissions Used
The App requests the following permissions solely to provide its features:
- Read/Write External Storage
To select photos from gallery and manage exports/imports (see Section 6). - Schedule Exact Alarms
To allow timers to set accurate notifications. - Post Notifications
To alert users about expired timers. - Internet
Required for displaying Google Ads and processing payments. - AD_ID Permission
For Google's Ads' advertising functionality
We never use these permissions to collect data.
5. Information Processed Locally on the User's Device
Some features require handling data locally, including:
- User-created formulas and notes
- User-created materials and perfumes
- User uploaded images
- User uploaded links
- User’s brand name and logo
- In-app alarms
- In-app passwords (see section 7)
This information never leaves the device unless the user manually exports or shares it.
6. Exported Content and User Responsibility
The App allows users to export content and create local text-file backups and transcripts.
Backup files use a complex internal structure and are not designed for human readability.
Transcript files are intentionally formatted as clear, readable text.
Users should be aware that both file types are not encrypted, and the App makes no guarantee of privacy once files are exported.
Users bear full responsibility for:
- Storing exported files securely
- Deleting them when needed
- Preventing unauthorized access
The developer has no access, control, or responsibility for user-exported data.
7. Passwords
All passwords in the App are stored locally using Android’s secure storage.
Because no server exists:
- There is no password recovery mechanism.
- The user is fully responsible for remembering or managing their password.
8. Children's Privacy
The App is intended for adults (18+).
We do not target children, market to children, or knowingly allow use by children.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically.
Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance.
10. User Rights
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data under applicable laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), UK GDPR, and Australian privacy laws.
These rights may include:
- The right to access personal data held about you
- The right to request correction or deletion of your data
- The right to restrict or object to certain data processing
- The right to withdraw consent for data processing (where applicable)
Because Scentsaga does not collect or store personal data directly, we are generally unable to access, modify, or delete any data collected by third-party services. For such requests, users should refer to the relevant third-party provider (e.g., Google).
11. International Users
If you are located outside Canada, including in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or Australia, please note that your data may be processed by third-party services operating in other jurisdictions. These services are responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable data protection laws.

Security Policy ~ Scentsaga
Last Updated: March 27, 2026
Effective Date: March 27, 2026
1. Overview
This Security Policy outlines the technical and organizational measures used to protect data handled within Scentsaga.
Although the developer does not collect data, the App implements standard Android security practices to protect data stored locally.
This policy is designed to align with general international security expectations, including those applicable in Canada, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
2. No Server-Side Storage
Scentsaga operates entirely on-device.
Because no servers exist, risks associated with server breaches, remote attacks, or cloud-based vulnerabilities are eliminated.
3. Local Data Protection Measures
3.1 Internal Storage
All content provided or uploaded by the user is stored within the App’s internal storage, which is private to the App. Under normal device conditions, other apps cannot access this data. Deleting content within the App also removes it from internal storage.
3.2 Password Storage
The App uses platform-provided encryption mechanisms to protect sensitive data. User passwords are stored securely using Android’s EncryptedSharedPreferences (AES-256).
4. Permissions and Security Controls
No permission is used for unauthorized purposes:
- External Storage Access
Used to access the gallery and to export/import files. - Exact Alarm Scheduling
Used to trigger reminders; does not expose data to external systems. - Notifications
Used only to alert users of expired timers. - Internet
Used solely for Google Ads and Billing operations.
5. Third-Party Security
Google Ads and Google Billing adhere to Google’s security and encryption standards.
We do not control or store any data collected by Google’s services.
6. User Responsibilities
Users are responsible for:
- Maintaining device-level security (PIN, password, biometric lock)
- Protecting exported backups and transcripts
- Maintaining up-to-date device software and apps
- Exercising caution with unknown apps, links, and downloads
- Managing in-app passwords
- Preventing unauthorized access
7. Incident Response
Because no data is stored on servers or transmitted to the developer, any potential security incidents would be limited to the user’s own device.
For device-related security issues, users should contact their device manufacturer or operating system provider.
8. Changes to This Security Policy
We may revise this Security Policy periodically to reflect security updates or platform requirements.
