Wakeon is an open-source Wake-on-LAN application developed by AlpWare Studio.
Wakeon stores device profiles (such as the name, MAC address, local host and broadcast addresses, port, device type, favorite status, and last wake time) locally on your device. Local network scan results also remain on your device. Wakeon does not send this device-profile or network-scan data to AlpWare Studio, Google Mobile Ads, or Firebase Analytics.
Backups and encrypted device-share files are created or selected only when you request those features. You are responsible for where you store or share an exported file and its separate share code.
Wakeon uses Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) to display banner and interstitial ads. Depending on your region and choices, Google and its advertising partners may process advertising identifiers, IP address, device and app information, approximate location derived from signals such as IP address, ad interactions, and diagnostic data to provide, limit, measure, personalize, and protect ads.
Wakeon uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to request and record consent where required. When UMP requires an ongoing privacy-options entry point, you can review or change your choice under Settings > Ad privacy choices. You can also reset the app's data or use your operating system's advertising/privacy controls.
See How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.
Wakeon uses Google Analytics for Firebase to measure aggregate app and advertising performance and Firebase Remote Config to safely adjust ad frequency or disable ad formats. Analytics may process app instance identifiers, device and app information, country/region, acquisition source, usage events, ad format, ad placement, ad load or display result, and diagnostics. Wakeon does not include device names, MAC addresses, local IP addresses, broadcast addresses, backup contents, or share codes in analytics events.
Analytics retention and deletion are managed using the Firebase/Google Analytics controls configured by AlpWare Studio and Google's applicable policies.
Wakeon uses network access to scan your local network, send Wake-on-LAN packets, check device status, and access the third-party services described above. Local network information is used for the requested Wake-on-LAN feature and is not added to advertising or analytics events by Wakeon.
Wakeon shares the advertising and analytics information described above with Google as a service provider/partner. Processing may be based on your consent where the law requires it, and otherwise on legitimate interests such as operating, securing, and measuring the app. Google and its partners may process data in countries outside your own under their applicable transfer safeguards.
Wakeon offers an optional, one-time Premium purchase that removes banner and interstitial ads. Google Play or Apple processes the payment and associates the non-consumable purchase with your store account. Wakeon receives purchase state, product identifier, transaction information, and signed purchase or receipt data so it can unlock and restore Premium. Wakeon does not receive or store your full card or bank account details.
Wakeon stores the Premium entitlement locally so the ad-free state remains available between launches. The store may provide the purchase again when you restore purchases, reinstall the app, or move to another device using the same store account. Store purchase data is used only to provide, restore, and support Premium and is not added to advertising events.
Wakeon is a general-audience utility and is not directed to children. Please contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information through the app.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing, or withdraw consent. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing already performed. Use the in-app privacy choices when available and contact us for requests concerning AlpWare Studio's processing. Requests concerning Google may also be made through Google's privacy controls.
We may update this policy when the app or legal requirements change. The effective date above identifies the latest version.
