This Privacy Policy explains how GAG2 Stocks Notifier ("the App", "we", "us", or "our") handles your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy. We do not collect, sell, or share your personal data.

1 Who We Are

GAG2 Stocks Notifier is an independent Android application developed by Adil Makhdoom. The app is a companion tool for the online game Grow a Garden 2, providing real-time notifications for in-game stock restocks and weather events. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by the game developers.

For any privacy-related concerns, you may contact us at: adil.makhdoom44@gmail.com

2 Information We Do NOT Collect

The App does not collect, store, transmit, or share any of the following:

We have no user accounts, no registration, and no login system.

3 Information Stored Locally on Your Device

The App stores the following data only on your device using Android's SharedPreferences system. This data never leaves your device and is never transmitted to us or any third party:

You can delete this data at any time by clearing the app's data from your Android Settings → Apps → GAG2 Stocks Notifier → Clear Data, or by uninstalling the app.

4 Internet Access and Third-Party API

The App requires internet access solely to fetch public, real-time game data. Specifically, it makes read-only HTTP requests to:

API Endpoint: https://api.growagarden2stock.com
Data fetched: Current in-game stock list and active weather events (all public, non-personal data)
Data sent: None — only standard HTTP request headers (User-Agent, Accept) are included, which are generic and contain no personal information

We do not control this third-party API. It is operated independently and its own privacy practices apply. The App only reads from this API and never writes or submits any data to it.

5 Push Notifications

The App sends push notifications to alert you when rare in-game items appear in stock or when weather events occur. These notifications are:

10 Data Security
