Slick Minimalist Launcher
Zero Telemetry & Absolute Device Privacy
Slick Minimalist Launcher operates entirely on your physical hardware. Vertex Apps does not collect, sell, harvest, or transmit your personal data, logs, app preferences, or telemetry to external servers. Your device is your sanctuary.
1. Overview & Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to the official Android mobile application Slick Minimalist Launcher engineered by Vertex Apps ("Studio", "we", "our", or "us").
A minimalist home screen with 200+ themes, fast performance & customization. Our studio architecture follows the strict principle of minimal privilege and complete local isolation. We believe that modern utilities do not require cloud surveillance to provide exceptional user utility.
2. Information Collection and Storage
Slick Minimalist Launcher does not collect or log personally identifiable information (PII). All user-generated configurations, workflows, and inputs remain exclusively within your device's private sandbox:
- Local On-Device Preferences: Settings, display configurations, user toggles, and saved states are saved strictly in Android Room SQLite or EncryptedSharedPreferences on your hardware.
- Zero Cloud Infrastructure: Vertex Apps does not maintain remote user databases or backend servers for this application. There are no accounts to create, passwords to remember, or profile data harvested.
- Zero Behavioral Tracking: We do not track keystrokes, screen usage frequency, geographic coordinates, or interaction histories.
- Local File Export & Backup: Any backup, export, or reporting files generated within the application are saved directly to your local file system where you specify.
3. Android System Permissions
To execute its native functions on Android 8.0+ (API 26+), Slick Minimalist Launcher may request the minimum necessary operating system permissions. Each permission is requested at runtime with transparent user consent:
Required to set Slick Minimalist Launcher as your device's home screen and display installed apps on your device.
Required only if you choose to set a custom wallpaper from your gallery. Files remain strictly on your local device.
Required only if you enable optional notification dots or counters on your minimalist app list.
Required solely when you manually export or import your home screen layout and theme backup file.
4. Third-Party Services & Network Activity
Because Slick Minimalist Launcher is designed to operate offline, it does not transmit data to advertising networks, user-profiling exchanges, or tracking services.
Standard operating system integrations provided by Google Play Services (such as APK license verification, in-app billing for studio support, or anonymous crash reports aggregated by Google Play Console) operate under Google's Privacy Policy. Vertex Apps has no direct access to individual Google Play account IDs.
5. Data Retention, Export & Deletion
Since all data is localized to your physical hardware, you maintain perpetual and irrevocable authority over your records:
- In-App Controls: You may edit, clear, or reset application preferences directly inside the app's settings menu at any time.
- System Clear Data: Navigating to
Android Settings → Apps → Slick Minimalist Launcher → Storage → Clear Storage / Datawill completely wipe all local SQLite databases, caches, and key-value stores. - Uninstalling: Uninstalling the application removes all application-private storage sandbox partitions permanently from your device.
6. Children's Privacy & Family Safety
Slick Minimalist Launcher is a general-audience utility suitable for users of all ages. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children under the age of 13 in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Google Play Families Policy. If you have reason to believe a minor has provided data, please contact us immediately for assistance.
