Privacy Policy
Plain-English data protection standards for Android developers using AppBanana.
At AppBanana (appbanana.io), operated from India, we help Android app developers pass the Google Play closed testing requirement (12 testers for 14 days) to unlock production access. Your privacy is critical to us. We write our policies in plain English so you know exactly how your data is handled.
Please note that this policy applies to our current manual communication flow (managed primarily via WhatsApp). It will be updated accordingly when our self-serve SaaS dashboard is launched.
1. The Data We Collect
We only collect the minimum amount of data required to fulfill our testing services and communicate with you about your orders:
- Contact Information: Your name and email address (collected via WhatsApp or our website contact form).
- WhatsApp Details: Your phone number and chat logs relative to your orders.
- App & Console Details: Your Google Play Console developer info, app name, package ID, test track invite links, and specific testing instructions you share with us.
- Payment Information: All payments are processed securely via Razorpay. We do not store or process your credit/debit card numbers or bank account details on our servers.

3. Data Retention
We keep your data only as long as necessary to comply with the law, fulfill our business contracts, or satisfy regulatory requirements:
- Order Data: Saved for 2 years after service completion to assist with re-verifications or issues.
- Payment Records: Kept for 7 years to comply with Indian GST and tax audits.
- Analytics Data: Retained in accordance with platform defaults (14 months for Google Analytics 4).
