Overview
Google Play asks every app to declare what it collects and shares, in a standard format. This page gives the same information for Core Live Wallpaper in plain English. "Collected" means the data leaves your device; anything handled only on your phone isn't collected.
Data collected
| Data | When | Goes to | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Backup account IDPlay category: Personal info, User IDs. Includes your Google account ID if you sign in | Every install | Supabase | Backing up your collection |
| Pulled wallpapers, free collections, packs opened, coin balancePlay category: App activity, Other actions | Every install | Supabase | Backing up your collection |
| NamePlay category: Personal info | If you sign in | Supabase | Finding your backup again |
| Email addressPlay category: Personal info | If you sign in | Supabase | Finding your backup again |
| Profile picture linkPlay category: Personal info, Other info | If you sign in | Supabase | Comes with Google sign-in and is stored with your backup account; Core doesn't show or use it |
| Approximate locationPlay category: Location. Coordinates of a place you type | If you use Weather | Pirate Weather | Showing the forecast |
The location row is a place you type, not your device's location; it's listed to be on the safe side. Supabase and Cloudinary also see your IP address in standard request logs when wallpapers load.

Is any of it optional?
The backup account is created automatically when Core opens, and you can delete it any time. Signing in and the Weather plugin are both optional.
Encryption in transit
Yes. Everything listed here travels over HTTPS/TLS.
Deleting your data
In the app, go to Settings → Sign in → Delete my backup, or see Delete your backup.
Independent security review
We haven't commissioned one. We're a small, independent developer, and we'd rather say so than imply otherwise.
One source of truth per app
If Core's own Google Play Data safety section ever disagrees with this page, the listing is what Core declares. Please tell us so we can fix the difference. The full details are in Core's Privacy Policy.
