App Permissions

The following is the list of important permissions asked by the NuovoPay Android app in order to function properly, some other miscellaneous permissions are excluded from this list for brevity:

• Device Admin *: Device Admin permission is asked for better security and the ability to apply security policies in the future. We recommend customers to make NuovoPay as Device Admin so that in future new security policies can be applied seamlessly. For EMM devices Device Owner permission is mandatory.
• Samsung KNOX *: Samsung KNOX integration allows NuovoPay to provide more secure environment in samsung devices. This permission is only asked in Samsung Devices.
• LG Guard *: A special application that makes use of LG Guard SDK features, only applicable for LG manufactured and supported devices, this integration is the result of our partnership with LG which lets us provide more secure Kiosk environment in LG Devices.
• Read phone State and Identity *: This permission is used to access SIM card information like IMEI, Serial No and ICCID etc which is later shown on the dashboard or provided as part of CSV export to account Admins.
• Wifi and Cell Info *: NuovoPay uses this permission to determine whether the device is connected to a network and if the network is a high-speed connection.
• Location: This permission is by default off and device provider must present an EULA to the end user to get their consent.

All permissions marked * are mandatory.
