Last Updated: March 19, 2026

About Clap‑to‑Find Locator: This application helps you quickly locate your device by recognizing clapping sounds. We take your privacy extremely seriously and are committed to handling your information in a transparent and secure manner.

This Privacy Policy applies to the mobile application Clap‑to‑Find Locator (hereinafter referred to as the "Application") provided by tufyfoservices (the "Service Provider"). This service is provided free of charge and is intended for use "as is." The official website of the Application is https://clapfindlocator.com.

2 Information Collection and Use

When you download and use the Application, we may automatically collect the following categories of information for purposes of analysis, improving app experience, and displaying relevant advertisements:

  • Your device's IP address
  • Pages visited, time and date of visit, time spent on each page
  • Operating system and mobile device model
  • Device identifiers and advertising IDs (used for analytics and ad personalization)
📢 Microphone Permission & Clap Recognition Feature
The core functionality of this Application requires access to your device's microphone in order to recognize clapping or hand‑clap sounds in real time, triggering a locating response (such as a ringtone or vibration). We only listen for sound patterns to detect claps after you have explicitly granted microphone permission. All audio data is used solely for local clap recognition on your device: no raw recordings are ever recorded, stored, uploaded, or shared. Audio signals are analyzed in real time for acoustic features and immediately discarded. We never collect conversations or any private ambient sounds through the microphone. You may revoke microphone permission at any time in your system settings; however, the clap detection feature will not function without this permission.
The microphone is used exclusively for clap detection and does not store or transmit any audio recordings. To provide an optimal experience, you may be asked to provide certain personally identifiable information (such as your Google advertising ID) — usage is governed by this policy.

The Service Provider may, with your consent, send you important notifications or promotional messages if you have opted in to receive them.
