Last updated 6 August 2026. This policy covers the TRS-80 app for Android.
The app has no accounts, no advertising and nothing to buy, and nothing you do inside a machine ever leaves your device. It does report how the app is used and when it crashes, through Google's Firebase, so that faults can be found and fixed. That reporting is not tied to your name, your email or any account, because the app has none of those.
Everything the app remembers is stored on the device itself, inside the app's own storage, and is never uploaded:
Uninstalling the app removes all of it.
The app includes two Google Firebase components. Google processes what they send under its own terms; see the Google Privacy Policy and Firebase's privacy documentation.
Firebase Analytics — how the app is used, so that effort goes where it is needed. It reports things like app launches and sessions, the app version, the device model and operating system version, and a coarse region worked out from the network address. It generates a random app instance identifier for the installation. That identifier is not your name and is not shared with other apps; clearing the app's data or uninstalling it discards it.
Firebase Crashlytics — what happened when the app stopped working: the point in the code it stopped at, the app and operating system version, the device model, and how much memory was free. It generates a random installation identifier of its own, on the same terms.
No advertising identifier. The app does not read Android's advertising ID. The permission that would allow it is deliberately removed from the app, so it cannot be read even by the libraries above. Nothing collected is used for advertising, sold, or shared with data brokers.
Aside from the reporting above, the app makes network requests only to fetch things you asked for, and sends no personal data with them:
retrostore.org) — the catalog
of programs, and a program's files when you choose to run it.raw.githubusercontent.com) — the
two ROM images the emulator needs, downloaded once on first run.play.google.com) — opened
only if you tap “Rate this app”.The app is not directed at children, asks for no personal details from anyone, and collects nothing beyond the usage and crash reporting described above.
There is no account and no profile, so there is nothing held under your name to be shown to you or deleted. For the reporting described above:
If what the app collects changes, this policy is updated before that version ships, and the date at the top changes with it.
