1 # Privacy

3 Ink Recents collects nothing.
4 
5 The app has no INTERNET permission. It cannot send data anywhere. There are no
6 advertisements and no analytics.
7 
8 ## What the permissions do
9 
10 **Usage access (PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS).** The app reads the usage log to put your
11 apps in order of last use. It reads the log on the device, and it shows the
12 result on the screen. It stores nothing from the log.
13 
14 **Close background processes (KILL_BACKGROUND_PROCESSES).** The app ends the
15 background processes of an app that you close.
16 
17 **Shizuku (moe.shizuku.manager.permission.API_V23).** If you run Shizuku, the
18 app asks the shell for the task list, and closes a task that you close. The
19 commands are `dumpsys activity recents`, `am stack remove` and `am kill`. On a device where
20 the shell is root, it also reads the task snapshot files with `base64`, to show
21 a picture on the card. The app never runs `su`.
22 
23 ## What the app stores
24 
25 The app stores one thing on the device: the time at which you closed each app.
26 That is how a closed app stays off the list until you open it again. Android
27 deletes it when you uninstall the app.
