belongus privacy policy

Data stored on your device

belongus works offline and does not require an online account managed by belongus or Hazen Hills Software, Inc. The app stores your local profile, collections, photos, friends, groups, and loan records on your device. If you choose to use your device’s phone number, Android requests permission before the app reads it.

Online features you choose

Full backup files go to the location you select. Optional Android automatic backup uses your Google account and excludes photos. Shared catalogs and reports go to recipients you choose. Online ISBN lookup sends the ISBN to Open Library. AI-assisted imports use the AI service you choose separately.

Advertising

Ad-supported builds may use Google AdMob. Google may process device identifiers, approximate location, and ad interaction or diagnostic information to deliver, measure, and protect ads. belongus does not send your collection records, photos, or contact details to AdMob. See how Google uses information from apps that use its services.

Deleting your data

Use More → Settings → Reset to Default to remove your local profile details and collection data. To also remove the retained local identifier, clear belongus storage in Android settings. Remove saved backups through the service or folder where you stored them. Recipients manage copies you previously shared.
