NexBook Mobile

Privacy policy

What the app stores, what it sends, and how to remove it.

Effective date: 4 November 2026

This policy explains what NexBook Mobile (“the app”) stores, what it sends over the internet, and how you can remove it. The app is provided by Zain Ahamed, Sri Lanka (“we”, “us”).

The short version

  • Your business records (products, stock, customers, invoices, purchase bills, suppliers) are stored on your phone. We cannot see them.
  • If you choose to connect Google Drive, backups are saved in your own Google Drive. We cannot see or open them.
  • The app sends a small amount of licensing information to our server so we can confirm your subscription.
  • The app has no advertising and no analytics or tracking tools, and we do not sell your data.

Information stored on your phone

The records you enter, your business name, logo and colours, and your settings are saved in the app’s private storage on your phone. Photos or documents you attach to purchase bills are also kept in the app’s private storage. This information stays on your phone unless you create a backup or share a document yourself.

Google account and Google Drive backup (optional)

Backup is optional. The app works without it. If you tap to connect Google Drive, you sign in with your Google account and give the app permission to use Google Drive in these limited ways:

  • Access to files the app creates (the “drive.file” permission): the app can create and open only the files and folders that it created itself. It cannot see your other Drive files.
  • The app’s private data area (the “drive.appdata” permission): a hidden area in your Drive used only by this app.

How we use Google user data

The app uses this access only to save your backup files to a folder called “NexBook Backups” in your Google Drive, to list your backups, and to download the one you choose when you restore your records on a phone. Backup files are copies of your business records, saved as files in your own Drive.

How we store and share it

Backup files exist only in your own Google Drive and on your phone while the app is working with them. They are not sent to our server and we cannot read them. We do not share Google user data with anyone, do not use it for advertising, and do not use it to train AI models. The app’s use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

Disconnecting and deleting

You can disconnect Google Drive at any time from the app’s backup settings. You can also remove the app’s access at myaccount.google.com/permissions. To delete your backups, delete the “NexBook Backups” folder in your Google Drive.

Licensing information sent to our server

To confirm that your subscription is active, the app connects to our licensing server (hosted on Google Firebase). The server holds:

  • Your business name, the contact details you gave us, your plan and payment dates, which we record when you subscribe.
  • The activation code you entered.
  • A random identifier for your installation of the app, the device model, the app version, and the time the app last checked in.

This information is used only to run the subscription: to activate and renew access, to help you if you change phones, and to keep the service secure. It does not include your stock, customers, invoices or sales. Only we can read it.

Camera and notifications

If you allow camera access, the camera is used to scan product barcodes. The images are processed on your phone and are not stored or sent anywhere. If you allow notifications, they are used for reminders from the app. You can turn either off in your phone’s settings.

This website

This website does not use cookies, advertising or analytics. Our web host may keep standard server logs, such as the time of a visit, as most hosts do.

Service providers

The licensing server runs on Google Firebase and Google Drive is provided by Google. They handle data as described in their own privacy policies. We do not use advertising or analytics services.

How long we keep information

Records on your phone stay until you delete them or uninstall the app. Licensing information is kept while you are a customer and for a reasonable time afterwards for accounting and support. You can ask us to delete it.

Your choices

You can ask us to show, correct or delete the licensing information we hold about you, by writing to zainahamedux@gmail.com. We will reply as soon as we can.

Children

The app is made for businesses and is not directed at children.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy we will update this page and the effective date above.
