# Privacy Policy
**Tether API** is an open source Android app that exposes phone status via a local HTTP API.
## Data Collection
This app does **not** collect, store, or transmit any personal data to external servers.
## Permissions
The app requests the following permissions:
| Permission | Purpose |
|------------|---------|
| `READ_PHONE_STATE` | Read network connection type and carrier name |
| `ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` | Required by Android 10+ to access signal strength |
| `POST_NOTIFICATIONS` | Display foreground service notification |
## Data Access
Phone status (signal strength, carrier, battery level) is only accessible via a local HTTP server running on port 8765. This server is **only reachable from devices tethered to your phone** (USB or WiFi hotspot) and is not exposed to the internet.
## Third Parties
This app does not include any analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs. No data is shared with third parties.
## Open Source
The complete source code is available at: https://somegit.dev/anonfunc/android-tether-api
