Privacy Policy

Effective as of 2026-10-06

This privacy policy applies to the SvitloUA (СвітлоUA) app for mobile devices (package com.icompany.svitloua), together with any related services operated by Alex Hrindii (collectively, the "Application"). Alex Hrindii is hereby referred to as the "Service Provider".

What the Application does

The Application shows hourly power outage schedules published by regional electricity operators in Ukraine. You add one or more addresses, choose a region and an outage group for each, and the Application displays the schedule for today and tomorrow, the current state, home-screen widgets and optional notifications. The Application does not require an account, a login, or your real postal address.

Information stored on your device

The following information is entered by you and stored only on your device. It is never transmitted to the Service Provider:

• The addresses you add — a label you choose (for example "Home" or "Parents"), a region and an outage group
• Your notification preferences (whether reminders are enabled and how many minutes in advance)
• Which address each home-screen widget is bound to
• A cached copy of the last downloaded schedules, so the Application works offline
• Your language preference

Uninstalling the Application deletes all of this information from your device.

Information Collection and Use

The Application collects information automatically when you download and use it, through the third-party SDKs listed below. This information may include

• Your device's Internet Protocol address
• The screens of the Application that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those screens
• The time spent on the Application and the actions you take in it (for example adding an address or pinning a widget)
• Your mobile operating system, device model, app version and language
• Crash reports and diagnostic data if the Application stops working
• An advertising identifier used to show ads

The Service Provider does not collect your precise location. The region and outage group you select are used only to download the matching schedule and are not sent to the Service Provider's own servers; they may be visible to the data source as part of the requested file path (see "Where the schedules come from").

Where the schedules come from

The outage schedules are taken from open publications of the regional electricity operators. The Application downloads them from public repositories hosted on GitHub (api.github.com and raw.githubusercontent.com). When the Application fetches a schedule, GitHub receives your IP address and the usual technical details of an HTTPS request, as described in the GitHub Privacy Statement. The Service Provider is not affiliated with any electricity operator.

Notifications

Reminders before the power goes off or comes back and alerts about a new schedule are scheduled locally on your device. The Application does not use push notification tokens, and no notification content leaves your device. You can switch notifications off in the Application or in the system settings at any time.

Advertising

The Application shows ads delivered by Google AdMob. AdMob may use your advertising identifier and the information listed above to serve and measure ads. You can reset your advertising identifier or opt out of personalised ads in the Android settings of your device ("Ads" under Google settings).

Cookies and tracking technologies

The Application or its third-party SDKs may use SDKs, identifiers and similar technologies to support functionality, analytics, crash reporting or advertising. Where required by applicable law, the Service Provider will obtain consent before using non-essential tracking technologies.

Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data held by the Service Provider. To exercise these rights, or to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, contact the Service Provider at possible1770@gmail.com.

Your California privacy rights (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to delete personal information, the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and the right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights. To exercise your CCPA/CPRA rights, contact the Service Provider at possible1770@gmail.com.

The Service Provider may use the information you provide to send important information, required notices, and, where permitted by law, marketing communications.

Third Party Access

Only aggregated, anonymized data is periodically transmitted to external services to aid the Service Provider in improving the Application and their service. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties in the ways that are described in this privacy statement.

International Data Transfers

The Service Provider or its third-party service providers may transfer personal data to countries outside your country of residence, including outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, the Service Provider will use appropriate mechanisms.

• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission
• Adequacy decisions or other legally recognized transfer mechanisms
• Your consent, where required and legally permitted

Data protection laws in other countries may differ from those in your jurisdiction. Where required by law, the Service Provider will apply appropriate safeguards and obtain any consent required for the transfer.

Please note that the Application utilizes third-party services that have their own Privacy Policy about handling data. Below are the links to the Privacy Policy of the third-party service providers used by the Application:

• Google Play Services
• AdMob
• Google Analytics for Firebase
• Firebase Crashlytics
• GitHub (schedule data hosting)

The Service Provider may disclose User Provided and Automatically Collected Information:

• as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process;
• when they believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect their rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request;
• with their trusted services providers who work on their behalf, do not have an independent use of the information the Service Provider discloses to them, and have agreed to adhere to the rules set forth in this privacy statement.

Opt-Out Rights

You can stop further collection of information from your mobile device by uninstalling the Application. Uninstalling will stop the Application from collecting data from your device and will delete the addresses, preferences and cached schedules stored on it, but it does not automatically delete information that has already been transmitted to the Service Provider or to third parties.

To request deletion of your personal data, to withdraw consent, or to exercise any of your rights, contact the Service Provider at possible1770@gmail.com.

Data Retention Policy

The Service Provider retains personal data based on its necessity for the stated purposes:

• User Provided Data (addresses, preferences): stored on your device only and removed when you delete them or uninstall the Application
• Automatically Collected Data (analytics, crash reports): retained for up to 24 months from collection, unless longer retention is required for legal compliance
• Aggregated and Anonymized Data: retained indefinitely as it no longer identifies you
• Data required for legal compliance: retained as long as required by applicable law

You may request deletion of your personal data, subject to any legal obligation to retain it. To do so, contact the Service Provider at possible1770@gmail.com.

Children

The Application is not intended for children under 13 years of age, or such higher age as required by applicable law. The Service Provider does not knowingly solicit data from children or market the Application to them.

Where parental or guardian consent is required under applicable law, the Application is not intended for use without that consent. The Service Provider does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13 years of age in violation of applicable law. In the event the Service Provider discovers that a child has provided personal information, the Service Provider will immediately delete this from their servers. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided the Service Provider with personal information, please contact the Service Provider (possible1770@gmail.com) so that they will be able to take the necessary actions.

Security

The Service Provider is concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. The Service Provider provides physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information the Service Provider processes and maintains. All network traffic of the Application uses HTTPS.

Data Breach Notification

If a data breach occurs that affects your personal data, the Service Provider will notify you in accordance with applicable legal requirements, including, where required, providing information about the nature of the breach and the steps being taken to address it.

Changes

The Service Provider may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The Service Provider will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Privacy Policy with an effective date. Where required by law, the Service Provider will seek your consent to material changes before they take effect.

Previous versions of this Privacy Policy will be maintained and made available upon request by contacting the Service Provider at possible1770@gmail.com.

This privacy policy is effective as of 2026-10-06

Your Consent

Where processing is based on consent, you provide that consent by affirmatively opting in to the relevant feature or action. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal. Processing based on other lawful bases is carried out as described above.
