Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 24, 2024
This Privacy Policy governs your use of the mobile applications (“Apps”) created by BaardeApps.
1. Information We Collect
BaardeApps does not directly collect, store, or process any Personal Information from you (such as your name, email address, phone number, or precise location). Our commitment is to your privacy.
However, our Apps integrate third-party services (our "Service Providers") to provide core functionality and display advertisements. These providers may automatically collect certain information from your device as described below.
2. Camera and Flashlight Usage (Magnifier Functionality)
Our Magnifying Glass & Flashlight app requires access to your device's camera and flashlight to function as intended.
Camera Access: The app uses the camera to capture a live video stream of what you are pointing it at. This video stream is processed in real-time on your device only to display the magnified image on your screen.
No Data Storage or Transmission: We do not save, store, record, or transmit any images or video from your camera. The camera feed is processed locally and is never sent to our servers or any third party. Your privacy is paramount.
Flashlight Access: The app uses the flashlight permission to turn on your device's LED light for better visibility in low-light conditions.
3. Information Collected by Third-Party Service Providers
Our Service Providers may collect the following types of non-personal data:
Device Identifiers: Device model, operating system version, unique device identifiers (like the Advertising ID).
Network Information: Your IP address.
Usage Data: Information about how you interact with the App (e.g., features used, ad clicks).
Coarse Location Data: Approximate geographic location derived from your IP address for relevant ad targeting.
This information is used by our providers to display relevant advertisements, maintain their services, and help us improve app performance.

You can control how advertising partners use your information by managing your device’s advertising ID settings:
Android: Go to Settings → Google → Ads → Reset advertising ID.
iOS: Go to Settings → Privacy → Tracking (or Apple Advertising).
6. Children’s Privacy
Our Apps are not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly permit our Service Providers to collect Personal Information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us so we can take steps to remove it.
7. Security
We rely on the security measures provided by the third-party platforms (Google Play) and our Service Providers to protect your data, as we do not directly collect or store sensitive information.
