Welcome to ManhWave — your source for high-quality wallpapers and backgrounds. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information when you browse, download, and set wallpapers through our mobile application.

Our Principle: ManhWave is built to respect your device and your privacy. Wallpaper downloads happen locally; we do not track which images you save to your personal gallery.

By using ManhWave, you acknowledge and accept the practices outlined in this policy.
