[android-developers] saving files in external folder

i'm saving files in

sdcard/Android/data/<packagename>/files

the problem is that everytime i download the app to
the phone - the folder and it's contents get deleted.

anyway to prevent that.

ideally i would want that to happen only when the
user uninstalls.

for debugging and user app upgrades - i'd like
the folder and it's contents to remain.
