Giant JSON Viewer is designed with privacy at its core. Your JSON files never leave your device, and we collect virtually no personal information. This policy explains exactly what data exists and how it's handled.
The Short Version
- Your files stay local — we never access, upload, or transmit your JSON data
- No personal data collection — we don't collect names, emails, or identifiers
- No analytics or logging — the app itself doesn't track your usage
- Minimal server interaction — only two optional features contact our servers, and neither exposes personal data
What the App Does Locally
Giant JSON Viewer operates entirely on your device:
- Opens and indexes JSON files stored on your phone
- Creates structural indexes in the app's cache directory
- Stores bookmarks, filter results, and preferences locally
- Downloads files via Remote API and stores them in the app's data folder
None of this data is transmitted anywhere. Files you open remain solely on your device.
Free Trial Tracking
When you accept the optional 10-day PRO trial, we store an anonymous device token on our secure servers. This token is:
- A one-way cryptographic hash that cannot be reversed to identify you or your device
- Used solely to remember your trial progress across app reinstalls
- Processed and stored on Google Cloud infrastructure
If you decline the trial, no data is stored.
AI-Assisted Regex Generator
The optional AI regex generator sends only the text description you type (up to 500 characters) to a secure Google Cloud Function. Important protections:
- The AI cannot access your JSON files
- It cannot access your device data
- Requests are processed on Google Cloud infrastructure
- Requests are not stored or used for any other purpose
This is the only feature that sends any user-provided content to a server.
In-App Purchases
PRO features are available via Google Play In-App Purchases. All payment processing is handled entirely by Google Play. We do not collect, see, or store any payment information.
Google Play Services
While Giant JSON Viewer itself does not log or collect usage data, Google Play may collect:
- Crash reports and ANR (Application Not Responding) logs
- Basic usage statistics
- Device information for compatibility purposes
This is standard for all Android apps distributed via Google Play and is governed by Google's Privacy Policy. We use this data solely to identify and fix crashes.
In-App Reviews
We use Google's official In-App Review API to request feedback. This is a standard Android feature. No personal data is collected through this mechanism.
External Links
The app may link to external websites (such as GitHub for bug reporting). These sites operate independently and have their own privacy policies.
Data We Do NOT Collect
To be absolutely clear, Giant JSON Viewer does not collect:
- Your name, email, or contact details
- Contents of your JSON files
- Device identifiers (except the anonymous trial token)
- Location data
- Browsing history
- Usage patterns or behavior analytics
