List Grocery — Privacy Policy

Effective date: 2026-08-15 Last updated: 2026-08-15

Summary

List Grocery is an offline-first shopping list. We do not create accounts, do not ask for your email, do not sync your lists to any server, and do not ship any analytics or tracking SDK. The lists you write — items, quantities, prices, notes, stores, aisles, staples — never leave your device unless you choose to share or export them. The only data that leaves your device is what Google AdMob needs to serve ads.

If that’s all you wanted to know, you’re done. The sections below spell it out in detail.

Who we are

Data the app stores on your device

The following data is created and kept locally on your device. It never leaves the device unless you explicitly export or share it.

Everything is entered by hand. The app has no access to your purchases, payment cards, loyalty accounts, location or any other account, and it never reads them.

You can share a list as plain text through Android’s share sheet — that text goes only to the app you pick, in that moment; nothing is stored or sent by us. You can export all data at any time via Settings → Export backup (JSON); the file is written where you choose and is entirely under your control. You can delete individual items and lists inside the app, wipe everything with Settings → Delete all data, or uninstall the app — Android removes the local database with it.

The app explicitly opts out of Android cloud backup and device-to-device transfer, so your lists are not copied into Google’s backup service.

We have no servers and no cloud storage. We cannot see your lists and we cannot recover your data if you lose your device.

Third-party services we use

Google AdMob (ads)

The app contains the Google Mobile Ads SDK. It shows occasional full-screen interstitial ads after you finish a list-level action (creating a list, finishing a shopping trip, sharing a list), plus an optional rewarded ad that you can choose to watch to remove ads for 24 hours. Google may collect and process:

AdMob does not receive your lists, items, prices, stores or preferences. Google’s handling of the data above is governed by Google’s own policies:

Consent (EEA, UK and Switzerland): on first launch the app shows Google’s certified consent form, and you choose whether personalised ads are allowed. You can change your answer at any time from Settings → Ad privacy options inside the app. You can also opt out of personalized advertising via your device’s system settings (Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads).

Data we collect ourselves

None. We don’t run any backend. We have no analytics SDK, no crash reporter that phones home, no Firebase, and no custom telemetry. We don’t log app usage anywhere we can read it.

Permissions the app requests

That is the complete list. The app does not hold access to your location, contacts, camera, microphone, files, SMS, notifications or any financial account, and it schedules no background work.

Children

List Grocery is not directed to children under 13 and is not designed for use under the COPPA framework. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Your choices

Changes to this policy

If we change the data we collect or the third-party services we integrate, we will update this page and bump the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be flagged in the app’s release notes as well.
