Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Medicine Reminders (“the App”), published by Keene Smart Apps LLC, handles information when you use the App on Android.
Summary
- Medication lists, reminders, doctors, pharmacies, and settings are stored on your device.
- We do not create user accounts and we do not operate a Medicine Reminders cloud backend that stores your medication data.
- Optional features (doctor search, pharmacy search, price compare, voice input, and opening GoodRx or your email app) use the internet or other apps on your phone.
- The App does not show ads and does not include third-party analytics or advertising SDKs.
Information stored on your device
Depending on how you use the App, it may store locally:
- Medication names, dose strength, amount to take, packaged quantity, instructions, and notes
- Reminder schedules, alert preferences, and selected reminder sounds
- Saved doctors and pharmacies, including names, addresses, phone numbers, and related details you choose to save
- Optional profile fields such as email address, city, state/region, and ZIP/postal code
- App preferences such as theme and language
- An optional unlock code (passcode), stored only as a one-way hash on the device
This information stays on your phone unless you choose a feature that shares it (for example emailing your list) or your device backups include app data.
Permissions and device features
- Notifications: used to alert you when it is time to take medication.
- Exact alarms / boot completed: used so reminders can fire on schedule and after device restart.
- Camera: used only when you choose Scan package. Label text is read on-device with on-device text recognition to help fill medication fields. We do not upload package photos to a Keene Smart Apps server.
- Internet: used for optional doctor search, pharmacy/price lookups, and opening external links.
- Microphone / speech recognition: used only if you choose Add by voice. Speech processing is handled by your device’s Android speech services (which may be provided by Google), not by a Keene Smart Apps speech server.
Information processed when you use optional online features
If you use these features, the App may send limited information over the internet:
- Doctor search: your search text and location fields (city, state, ZIP) may be sent to the public U.S. CMS NPI Registry API to find physicians.
- Pharmacy search and price compare: medication name and location fields may be sent to Cost Plus Drugs public pharmacy/price endpoints to show nearby cash/network estimates when available.
- GoodRx: if you open GoodRx from the App, your device browser/app loads GoodRx. Keene Smart Apps does not control GoodRx’s privacy practices.
- Email list: if you email your medication list, the App opens your mail app with a draft. Delivery is handled by your email provider, not by Keene Smart Apps servers.
- Call / Navigate: opens your phone or maps app with the contact or address you selected.
Health-related information
Medication names and reminder details are sensitive personal information. The App is a consumer reminder tool, not a medical device, diagnosis service, or telehealth service. Always follow guidance from your clinician and pharmacist.
Children
Medicine Reminders is intended for adults managing medications, not for children. It is not directed to children under 13.
Data sharing
Keene Smart Apps does not sell your personal information. We do not share your medication list with advertisers. Limited data may be transmitted to the third-party services listed above only when you use those features.
Data retention and deletion
- Local data remains on your device until you delete it in the App, clear app storage, or uninstall the App.
- You can erase local App data from the unlock screen using Forgot unlock code (requires typing RESET) or by clearing app data in Android settings.
- Because we do not host Medicine Reminders medication accounts on our own servers, there is no separate Keene Smart Apps cloud account to delete.
Security
We design the App to keep medication data on-device by default. An optional unlock code adds a local barrier when opening the App. No method of electronic storage is perfectly secure.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The effective date above will change when we do. Continued use of the App after an update means you accept the revised policy.
