Shoyi Privacy Policy
Updated: September 6, 2026 · Effective: September 6, 2026
Shoyi (the “App”) is developed and provided by Liu Xiao. The current version is an offline companion pet for Android. We respect your privacy and take reasonable measures required by applicable laws.
1. We do not collect personal information
The App does not connect to the internet, request network access, upload data, or use third-party analytics, advertising, or push SDKs.
The App does not collect phone numbers, location, contacts, photos, camera or microphone data, call history, app lists, or other personal information.
The App has no account system. No registration or login is required. To delete all data, uninstall the App or clear its data in system settings.
2. Local settings
To provide the companion feature, the App stores only local settings such as pet size, automatic actions, sleep state, language, screen position, and agreement records.
These settings never leave your device and are not uploaded to a server.
3. Permission use
Overlay permission (SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW) is used only to show and drag the pet. The pet receives touches only in its own area and does not read or record other apps’ content.
Notification permission (POST_NOTIFICATIONS, Android 13 and later) is used only for a running-status notification and a close entry. You may deny it without affecting the pet display.
The App does not request accessibility, screen recording, camera, microphone, or precise location permissions. If a future version needs another permission, we will explain it and ask for consent first.
4. Protection of minors
The App is a leisure companion without social, payment, or advertising features. Users under 14 should read this policy with a guardian and use the App with their consent.
5. Storage and deletion
Your settings are stored only on your device. You can delete them by clearing the App data in system settings or uninstalling the App. Because data never leaves your device, we keep no backup after deletion.
6. Policy updates
We may update this policy from time to time. For a material change, the App will notify you at startup and ask you to confirm it again. If you disagree, you may stop using the App.
