AppOwl Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 May 2026
Applies to: AppOwl for Android (package uk.lunairelabs.appowlapp)
Publisher: Lunaire Labs Limited

      The short version: Your sales data goes from Google to your phone. It never passes through a Lunaire Labs server. AppOwl is a sales dashboard for indie Google Play developers — you sign in with your Google account so AppOwl can fetch your own Play Console sales reports directly from Google’s servers to your phone. We don’t see your sales numbers, your app list, your refund rates, or which countries you sell into. There is no Lunaire-Labs backend involved in this flow.
    

1. What AppOwl stores on your device

The following is stored locally on your device (in a private SQLite database and Android’s SharedPreferences) and is never transmitted to us:

The Google OAuth token granted to AppOwl, used to fetch your sales bucket. The token is held only in app-private storage and is revoked when you sign out or uninstall.
The Play Console sales reports AppOwl has downloaded on your behalf — daily sales, refunds, country breakdown, app identifiers.
The retail prices you’ve told AppOwl your apps charge in each country (so real revenue can be calculated locally).
Your preferences (reporting currency, theme, sort order, premium entitlement flag).

2. What AppOwl does NOT do

No Lunaire-Labs servers. AppOwl does not have a backend. Your sales data is fetched by your phone directly from Google and stored on your phone. We never receive it, store it, or proxy it.
No account on our side. Google sign-in identifies you to Google; we do not create or hold any AppOwl-side account, email capture, or user identifier.
No analytics. No telemetry SDK. No measurement of how you use the app.
No advertising. No ad SDKs, no tracking pixels.
No third-party trackers. AppOwl makes no outbound network requests except to Google’s authentication, Google Cloud Storage (for the sales bucket), and Google Play Developer API endpoints — all on your behalf, all to fetch your own data.

3. Google sign-in & OAuth scopes explained

When you sign in, Google asks you to grant AppOwl two scopes:

Basic profile — used only so Google knows which account to authenticate. AppOwl reads your Google account email locally to label the active session in the UI. It is not transmitted off the device.
Read access to your Google Cloud Storage sales bucket — the bucket Google Play automatically populates with your sales reports each day. AppOwl uses this scope to download the reports for the apps you publish. AppOwl never writes to the bucket and cannot access any other GCS bucket.

You can revoke AppOwl’s access at any time from your Google account’s third-party app permissions page.

4. Permissions explained

`INTERNET`

Required to reach Google’s servers (sign-in, Cloud Storage sales bucket, Play Developer API). No connections are made to any non-Google endpoint as part of the app’s core function.

Storage (scoped, no permission required on Android 11+)

AppOwl writes its local database to its own private app folder, which is automatically removed when you uninstall the app.

5. In-app purchases

If you purchase the AppOwl one-off unlock, the transaction is handled entirely by Google Play Billing. Lunaire Labs Limited receives only an anonymous entitlement flag from Google. We do not receive your payment details, name, address, or any other personal information.

6. Data retention

Because AppOwl does not collect or transmit your sales data to us, there is nothing for us to retain. Your OAuth token, downloaded sales reports, and preferences stay on your device until you sign out or uninstall the app. Revoking AppOwl’s access from your Google account permissions page additionally invalidates the token immediately.

7. Your rights

Because we do not hold any of your personal data, there is nothing for you to request, correct, or delete on our servers. To remove all AppOwl data from your device, uninstall the app. To remove AppOwl’s access to your Google account, revoke it from your Google account’s third-party app permissions page.

8. Children

AppOwl is intended for adult professional developers managing their own Google Play Console accounts. It is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect any data from users of any age.

9. Changes to this policy

If we ever change how AppOwl handles data, we will update this policy and note the date at the top.
