miLock Privacy Policy

Effective November 1, 2026.

miLock is an Android app that limits time on social media and blocks pornography and gambling. It is developed by CondorGrid SpA (RUT 78.478.573-4), Chile. This policy explains what data miLock uses, why, and what happens to it.

In short

• miLock runs entirely on your phone. It has no servers, accounts, ads, analytics or crash reporting tools.
• We do not collect your data: nothing miLock sees or stores reaches us or any third party.
• We do not sell or share data with anyone.

What miLock uses and why

VPN connection (Android VpnService)

miLock creates a local VPN, inside the phone, that only receives DNS queries: the names of the sites the phone looks up before connecting (for example, instagram.com). The rest of your traffic does not go through miLock, so it does not see page content, what you type or what you download.

• Why: to decide on the spot whether each site is blocked, based on your limits, your night schedule and the pornography and gambling lists.
• What it stores: nothing. It does not log the sites looked up.
• Who receives the queries: allowed queries go on to your network's DNS server (your Wi‑Fi's or your mobile carrier's), just as without miLock. If your network has none or it does not respond, they go to the public DNS servers of Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) or Google (8.8.8.8), which handle them under their own privacy policies. miLock only forwards them and adds nothing to them.

Accessibility service

miLock uses Android's accessibility service to measure the time you spend in the apps and sites you limit. It is not a tool for people with disabilities.

• What it sees: which app is on screen; in Chrome, the address shown in the address bar; and in the YouTube app, whether you are watching Shorts. It does not read or store messages, passwords or page content.
• Why: to count minutes, show the pause or block screen when due, pause the video that is playing and, when you tap its buttons, go back, go home or open a new tab in Chrome. Always following fixed rules that you set.
• What it stores: the minutes used and the number of entries for each day, on the phone.

What you set up

Your limits, schedules, list of sites, language and safeguard (PIN or authenticator) are stored on the phone. For the PIN, only a hash is stored, never the PIN itself. If you use the authenticator, miLock creates a key and shows it as a QR code for the person who helps you to scan in their authenticator app (Google or Microsoft Authenticator). That key stays only in miLock and in that app.

Device administrator (optional)

If you turn it on, Android requires turning it off before uninstalling miLock. It gives miLock access to no data.

Permissions

• Internet and network state: only to forward allowed DNS queries and to know which DNS server your network uses.
• Vibration: for some alerts.

miLock does not ask for location, contacts, photos, camera, microphone or access to your accounts.

Where data is stored and for how long

Everything stays in miLock's private storage on your phone, which other apps cannot read. miLock has Android's automatic backup turned off, so this data is not copied to your Google account either. The history of minutes and entries is deleted automatically after 40 days; settings stay until you change them.

How to delete your data

Uninstalling miLock, or clearing its data in Settings > Apps > miLock > Storage, deletes everything. Since we hold no data about you, there is nothing else to request from us or to delete on our side.

Children

miLock is meant for adults who want to limit their own phone use. It is not directed at children and does not collect data from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If what miLock does with data changes, we will update this page and its date before releasing the app version with that change.
