How to delete your data
Last updated: 2 May 2026
The short version: CalmMaker has no user accounts and stores your photos, videos, and checklists only on your device. To remove your data you can delete entries from inside the app, uninstall the app, or contact us at calmmakerapp@gmail.com. Anonymous data held by third-party services (advertising, crash reports) can be controlled through your device settings.
1. What data exists, and where
CalmMaker keeps things minimal on purpose. Here is everything that exists, and where it lives:
| Data | Where it lives | Tied to your identity? |
|---|---|---|
| Checklists, entries, photos, videos | Only on your phone (app's private storage) | No |
| Advertising ID + ad interactions | Google AdMob (free version only) | Pseudonymous, controllable in device settings |
| Crash reports + anonymous app usage | Kotzilla SDK | Anonymous, random identifier only |
| Pro purchase receipt | Google Play / Apple App Store | Tied to your store account, not to us |
2. How to delete each kind of data
Your checklists, entries, photos, and videos
Open CalmMaker → tap an entry → swipe or use the delete option. Photos and videos attached to the entry are removed from the app's private storage immediately. You can also let auto-cleanup remove entries after the timer you set when creating them.
Everything CalmMaker stores locally
Uninstalling CalmMaker permanently removes the app's private storage on your device — that includes every checklist, photo, and video you ever created in the app. There is nothing left for us to delete on a server, because none of it ever leaves your device.
- Android: long-press the CalmMaker icon → Uninstall, or Settings → Apps → CalmMaker → Uninstall.
- iOS: long-press the CalmMaker icon → Remove App → Delete App.
Reset your Advertising ID
AdMob (used in the free version of the app) identifies your device with a resettable Advertising ID. You can reset it or opt out of personalized ads at any time:
- Android: Settings → Google → Ads → "Delete advertising ID" or "Opt out of Ads Personalization".
- iOS: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → turn off "Allow Apps to Request to Track" (or per-app), and Settings → Privacy & Security → Apple Advertising → off.
Buying the in-app Pro upgrade permanently removes ads from CalmMaker and stops AdMob from being initialized at all.
Crash reports & anonymous analytics
Kotzilla SDK collects anonymous app usage events and crash diagnostics tied only to a randomly generated identifier — never to your name, email, or app content. Because no personal identifier is involved, individual records cannot be located on request.
If you would like us to take additional steps (for example, instructing our processor to purge a specific session or device identifier you can supply), email calmmakerapp@gmail.com.
Pro purchase records
Purchases are processed and stored by Google Play (Android) or Apple's App Store (iOS). We never see your payment details. To request deletion of purchase records, contact Google or Apple directly.
3. Send us a deletion request
For anything else — including formal GDPR data subject requests under Article 17 ("right to erasure") — write to us. We aim to respond within 30 days.
Please include in your message:
- The platform you use (Android / iOS)
- The approximate date you started using CalmMaker (if you remember)
- What you would like deleted
4. After deletion
Once data has been deleted from your device or our processors, it cannot be recovered. Local content removed via the app or by uninstalling is gone immediately. Data held by Google AdMob, Apple, or Kotzilla follows their own retention schedules — generally between 14 days and a few months — described in their respective privacy policies.
