Last Updated: [04/14/2026]
APCO PHOTO MAKER ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose your information when you use our mobile application.
1. Information We Collect
To provide you with the best passport photo making experience, our app requires certain permissions and collects specific data:
•
Camera Access: We require access to your device's camera to allow you to take new photos directly within the app for processing.
•
Media and Storage: We access your gallery/storage to allow you to select existing photos and to save the processed passport-ready sheets to your device.
•
Device Identifiers (Device ID): For the purpose of app activation and licensing, we collect a unique identifier (derived from Android ID) to manage your trial or premium subscription status.
•
Images: All image processing (Background removal and Face detection) is performed on-device using Google's ML Kit. We do not upload your personal photos to our servers.
2. How We Use Information
We use the collected information only for:
•
Providing the core functionality of the app (creating and editing photos).
•
Managing app activation and license keys.
•
Improving app performance and fixing bugs.
3. Third-Party Services
Our app uses third-party SDKs that may collect information used to identify you. These include:
•
Google Play Services: Used for app distribution and management.
•
Google ML Kit: Used for on-device selfie segmentation and face detection.
•
Google AI SDK (Gemini): Used for AI-enhanced features (if applicable).
•
WhatsApp: When you click "Contact Support," you are redirected to WhatsApp to send a message. We do not collect your WhatsApp data.
4. Data Security
We value your trust in providing us with your information. Since your photos are processed locally on your phone, your personal image data remains private. We use the Device ID solely to ensure valid app usage and prevent piracy.
5. Children’s Privacy
These Services do not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.
6. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes.
