Effective date: 1 November 2026. This policy applies to File Converter: Hawelha (تحويل الملفات: حوّلها), package com.hitbones.hawelha, provided by hitbones. Contact: aqar@omaralgarni.com.
Files and local conversion
Documents, images, video, and audio are processed on your device. Hawelha does not upload file contents to a conversion server. The Android document picker gives access to files you select. A file provider you choose may access cloud files under its own settings. The app does not request broad storage access.
Storage and deletion
In version 1.3, conversion jobs stage selected files privately so processing can resume after an interruption. Android notifications show progress and offer cancellation when permitted. Staged inputs and partial output are removed on completion, cancellation or failure where possible; interrupted work may retain them for retry. Finished job metadata older than 48 hours is cleaned on a later launch, except the latest result record. Results remain until you delete them. Clear app data to remove local job records and files; exported copies must be deleted separately.
Sharing at your request
When you choose to share, open, or save a copy, Android gives the selected application or destination access to that file. That destination handles it under its own policy. Hawelha does not publish your files automatically or provide a public sharing network.
Advertising and technical data
The app uses Google AdMob and Google User Messaging Platform. Advertising services may collect and share IP addresses that can indicate approximate location, app and ad interactions, diagnostic and performance information, and device identifiers such as the advertising ID and app set ID. These data support advertising, measurement, analytics, fraud prevention, and security. Google services encrypt data in transit. Local file processing does not mean that advertising data is not collected.
Privacy choices
A consent message may appear depending on your region and Google service settings. Ad privacy options are available in Settings when required by the provider. You can also manage the advertising ID in Android settings. Declining personalized advertising does not necessarily stop every data operation needed to deliver or protect ads.
Usage analytics and campaign measurement
With your permission, Google Analytics for Firebase measures app interactions, conversion type and outcome, duration, file actions, subscriptions, and ad/campaign performance. Google may process approximate location, device information, and app/device identifiers, including the advertising ID when permitted. Our events exclude filenames, file contents, URIs, recordings, and purchase tokens. Measurement starts only after consent and can be disabled in Settings; disabling it resets the local Analytics identifier. Your ad privacy choices also apply.
Subscriptions and payments
An optional monthly subscription removes ads; the conversion tools remain free. Google Play displays the local price and renewal terms before purchase and processes payment through your Google account. Hawelha does not receive your card details. The app stores a signed purchase receipt, including the purchase token, product and package identifiers, purchase status, and the time of the latest check, on your device to verify and restore ad-free access. It queries Google Play for purchases when you return to the app; its offline entitlement cache lasts no more than 24 hours. The app does not send the receipt to a server operated by hitbones. You can restore your subscription or open its management and cancellation page in Google Play from the app settings. Uninstalling the app does not cancel your subscription; renewal, cancellation, and payment are governed by Google Play terms.
Accounts and support
Hawelha does not require an account or provide a registration form collecting a name, email address, or password. If you email support, we receive your email address, message, and any attachments you choose to send, and use them to respond and follow up. Send only what is needed for the issue. You may request deletion of support correspondence at the same address, subject to applicable retention obligations.
Service provider retention
Advertising and analytics data are subject to the retention periods and controls described in Google policies. Deleting a local file or uninstalling the app does not automatically delete data held by Google. hitbones does not operate an account server or central archive of conversion files, and the app has no control that deletes advertising provider records.
Children
The app is not designed specifically for children. If you believe a child sent personal information to us in a support email, contact us so we can address the request.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy when the app or its services change. The effective date appears above. For privacy or support questions, contact hitbones at aqar@omaralgarni.com.

Helpful subscription suggestions
Helpful subscription suggestions use local counts of completed conversions and open/share/save actions. A dismissal is remembered for 14 days. These eligibility counters stay on the device. If you allow Analytics, generic offer shown/details/dismissed events may be measured; filenames and contents are never included.
