Privacy Policy

At TapForTest ("we", "our", or "us"), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information and proprietary application data shared with us. This Privacy Policy details our policies regarding data collection, operational usage, cloud storage, and security across our website, client dashboard, physical tester network, and automated reminder infrastructure.

1. Data We Collect

We collect only information strictly necessary to manage and verify your 14-day closed testing cycles:

• Developer Account Details: Name, organization name, email address, WhatsApp contact number, and service communication preferences.
• Application Metadata: App title, Android package identifier (e.g. com.yourcompany.app), category, Google Group address, and Google Play closed testing opt-in URLs.
• Testing Telemetry & Logs: Anonymous timestamps verifying daily app launch attendance, session duration, device hardware identifiers, and Android OS versions needed to prove engagement.
• Tester Information: Hardware model names, Android OS build numbers, and test session completion records from registered community devices.

2. What We Explicitly Do NOT Collect (Zero-Credential Model)

TapForTest operates on a strict zero-credential risk model:

• We NEVER ask for or store your Google Account passwords, Google Play Console credentials, or cloud access keys.
• We NEVER decompile, redistribute, inspect source code, or reverse-engineer your application binaries (APKs/AABs).
• We do not sell, rent, or trade developer or tester personal data to third parties, advertising brokers, or data aggregators.

3. How We Use It

Collected information is used exclusively to:

• Coordinate 20 verified physical human testers to join your Google Group and opt into your closed test on Google Play.
• Populate your live Client Dashboard progress bar, 14-day timeline, and device fleet telemetry.
• Synthesize custom, compliant answers for your Google Play 14-Day Production Questionnaire upon completion.
• Send automated push notifications and daily testing reminders to testers to ensure 100% daily retention.
• Provide direct milestone updates and technical support via WhatsApp or email.

4. Data Storage & Security

All database records, authentication credentials, and session tokens are encrypted in transit using industry-standard TLS 1.3 and encrypted at rest. Password hashing uses robust bcrypt algorithms with unique salts. Database backups are secured in private, role-restricted cloud instances located in enterprise data centers.

5. Third-Party Services

To deliver automated services, we integrate with trusted third-party providers:

• OneSignal: Used solely to dispatch automated push notifications and daily testing reminders to tester devices. No developer source code or private credentials are shared with OneSignal.
• WhatsApp (Meta): Used for secure, direct customer onboarding, real-time campaign support, and milestone status notifications.
• Google Play Console & Google Groups: Used by testers to opt in and install your closed test release as permitted by Google's testing APIs.

6. User Rights & Data Deletion

You have the right to access, rectify, or request permanent deletion of your account and testing telemetry records at any time. Upon verified completion of your campaign, you may request complete data purging by contacting us.

7. Non-Affiliation with Google LLC

TapForTest is an independent quality assurance and developer services platform. We are not endorsed by, sponsored by, or affiliated with Google LLC or Alphabet Inc. Android and Google Play are registered trademarks of Google LLC.
