As as example, when this service is enabled and running whenever you open an app we are alerted through the api the visible window state is changed, and we can infer the activity's package name and thus checking if we have a profile for said package and apply it. No data is collected/stored/logged through this process. Have a question? Feel free to reach out! Unlike most developers you will find, I'm more than happy to respond.
