Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 26, 2025
TL;DR: We don't collect, store, or transmit any of your personal data. Everything happens on your device.
1. Information We Don't Collect
Tel2What is designed with privacy as a core principle. We do not collect, store, or transmit:
- Personal information (name, email, phone number)
- Device information or identifiers
- Usage analytics or statistics
- Crash reports or diagnostics
- Location data
- Sticker content or metadata
2. How the App Works
Tel2What operates entirely offline after the initial sticker download:
- Sticker Download: When you import a Telegram sticker pack, the app downloads stickers directly from Telegram's servers to your device.
- Local Processing: All conversion, optimization, and processing happens locally on your device.
- No Cloud Storage: Converted stickers are stored only on your device.
- No Tracking: We don't use any analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs.
3. Third-Party Services
The app interacts with the following third-party services:
- Telegram Bot API: Used to fetch sticker pack metadata and download stickers. This is a read-only operation and no personal data is sent.
- WhatsApp: When you export stickers, the app uses WhatsApp's official sticker API to add them to your WhatsApp account. This happens locally on your device.
4. Permissions
The app requests the following permissions:
- Internet: Required to download stickers from Telegram.
- Storage: Required to save converted stickers on your device.
These permissions are used solely for core functionality and not for data collection.
5. Data Security
Since we don't collect or transmit your data, there's no risk of data breaches or unauthorized access to your information through our app.
6. Children's Privacy
Tel2What does not collect any information from anyone, including children under 13.
7. Open Source
