HandsFree Swipe – Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

HandsFree Swipe is developed and published by Sergiu Personal Development.

This Privacy Policy explains how the application uses device permissions and handles user information.

1. Camera usage

HandsFree Swipe uses the device’s front camera to detect hand gestures.

Camera frames are processed locally on the user’s device for gesture recognition.

The application:

• does not record videos;

• does not save photographs or camera frames;

• does not transmit camera images to external servers;

• does not share camera data with third parties.

The camera is used only while gesture detection is active.

2. Accessibility Service

HandsFree Swipe uses Android Accessibility Service to perform actions initiated through detected hand gestures, including:

• swipe up;

• swipe down;

• double tap for like;

• identifying whether a supported application is currently active.

The Accessibility Service is not used to read, collect, save, or transmit the content displayed on the screen.

The application does not collect passwords, messages, financial information, personal conversations, or other screen content.

3. Supported applications

HandsFree Swipe may perform gestures while supported applications are active, including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.

HandsFree Swipe is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by TikTok, ByteDance, Instagram, Facebook, Meta, YouTube, or Google.

4. Personal data

HandsFree Swipe does not require users to create an account.

The application does not intentionally collect, store, sell, or share personal information.

The current version does not use advertising SDKs, analytics services, tracking technologies, or external cloud storage.

5. Data retention and deletion

Because HandsFree Swipe does not collect or store personal information on external servers, there is no server-side personal data to retain or delete.

Temporary camera frames used for gesture detection are processed in memory and are not permanently stored by the application.

Users may remove all locally stored application preferences by clearing the application data or uninstalling the application.

6. Device permissions

HandsFree Swipe may request the following permissions:

• Camera permission, for local hand gesture recognition;

• Accessibility Service access, for performing gestures on the screen;

• Foreground service permission, to keep gesture detection active;

• Notification permission, to indicate when the detection service is running.

These permissions are used only for the functionality described in the application.

7. Accidental gesture detection

Gesture recognition is automated and may occasionally interpret natural hand movements as commands.

Users should stop gesture detection when unintended actions would be inconvenient.

8. Children

HandsFree Swipe is not specifically designed for children and is not directed toward children under the age required by applicable local law.

9. Changes to this policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated when the application’s functionality, permissions, or data practices change.

The updated version will be published at the same address with a revised “Last updated” date.
