Zip & 7z Extractor (package com.digitalshijil.archiveextract) is published by Digital Shijil LLC (“we”, “us”). This page explains what the app does with information.
We do not collect your personal information, we do not run a server for this app, and we do not show ads. The app has no account and no sign-in. Archives you open stay on your phone.
We never receive any of this. Android may copy the recent list, the activity log and the settings to your own Google account as part of the normal phone backup if you have that turned on. That is controlled by you and Google, not by us. Archive copies and the purchase hint are never part of that backup.
The app asks for no storage permission. You choose an archive, and a destination folder, with Android's own pickers, and the app can read or write only what you chose. Files are extracted and archives are created on your phone; nothing is uploaded. The app never overwrites a file: a name that is taken gets a number.
Archives can be hostile. The app skips entries whose names try to leave the destination folder, skips links, and stops an extraction whose real size does not match what the archive claims or that expands far beyond reason.
The app contains no advertising software, no analytics software and no crash-reporting software from us or from third parties.
Pro features are bought through Google Play Billing. Google handles your payment details and purchase history under Google's Privacy Policy; we never see your card or account details. The app asks Google Play whether a Pro purchase is active on your account. Google Play Billing also sends diagnostic information (for example, error and performance information about the purchase flow) to Google. In the Google Play Data safety form we therefore declare: App info and performance, Diagnostics: collected, not shared, required. The app itself makes no other network requests.
Pro is a yearly subscription with a free trial, or a one-time lifetime purchase. You can manage or cancel a subscription in Google Play.
Export activity log (Settings) saves the activity log as a CSV file in a place you choose. The app does not upload it.
Delete all data (Settings) erases the recent list, the activity log, settings and cached copies, releases the folders and files you granted, and restarts the app. Files you already extracted or created stay where you put them. Uninstalling the app also removes everything it holds. A Pro purchase belongs to your Google account and is not affected.
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Files and folders you pick | Granted by you through Android's pickers, one archive, file or folder at a time. No broad storage permission is requested. |
| Billing and network state | Declared by Google's Play Billing and In-App Review libraries to show prices, complete a purchase and show the review prompt. |
The app does not ask for your location, contacts, photos, microphone, camera or notifications.
The app reads and writes archives with zip4j and Apache Commons Compress (Apache License 2.0), the XZ for Java codec (public domain) and junrar (UnRAR licence, extraction only). The list is in the app under Settings, Open-source licenses.
Zip & 7z Extractor is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone. It handles only the files you give it and ships no content of its own.
If the app's behaviour changes in a way that affects this policy, we will update this page and the date above before the change ships.
