1. Introduction
Hi Painter is committed to safeguarding the privacy of its users. This privacy policy outlines how the app handles user data and what permissions are required to ensure the functionality of the app. Hi Painter is a drawing app that allows users to create artistic patterns using brushes of various colors. The app is designed with a simple and intuitive interface, making it accessible for users of all ages. It is important to note that Hi Painter respects the privacy of its users and will never upload personal photos or information to any external servers.
2. Data Collection
Hi Painter does not collect or store any personal identity information from users. The app does not require users to create accounts, provide email addresses, or submit any other personally identifiable information. Users are free to use the drawing features without having to disclose any private details. All data, including drawings and saved images, is stored locally on the user’s device. The app does not have access to any sensitive personal data beyond what is necessary for the drawing and file storage functionalities.
3. File Permissions
Hi Painter requires permission to read and write files on the user’s device. This permission is necessary to allow users to save their artwork and to access previously saved images for editing or viewing. The app will only interact with files that the user explicitly chooses to save or load within the app’s interface. No files will be accessed without the user's direct interaction. The permission to read and write files is solely for providing a better user experience and enabling the core functions of the app.
4. Local Storage of Information
All drawings and related data created in Hi Painter are stored locally on the user’s device. This means that users have full control over their data and can delete or modify their drawings at any time. Hi Painter does not create backups of user data on any external servers, ensuring that all information remains private and under the user’s control.
5. Security Measures
Hi Painter takes user data security seriously. Although the app does not collect or store sensitive information externally, it relies on the inherent security features of the user’s device to protect the locally stored drawings and related files. Users are encouraged to follow best practices for securing their devices, such as using strong passwords and enabling device encryption. Hi Painter does not assume responsibility for unauthorized access to a user's device, but it ensures that the app does not expose any data to external risks.
6. User Rights
Users of Hi Painter have full control over their data stored within the app. This includes the ability to delete or modify any saved drawings or files. Since all data is stored locally on the device, users can also back up or transfer their files according to their preferences using the device’s built-in file management tools. Hi Painter does not impose any restrictions on user rights regarding their data, and there is no requirement for users to submit any requests to manage their own files.
7. Consent to Permissions
By using Hi Painter, users agree to grant the necessary permissions for file read and write access. This permission is essential for the app to function as intended, allowing users to save their drawings and retrieve them when needed. Users who do not grant these permissions will not be able to fully utilize the app's features. Hi Painter ensures that these permissions are only used for the purposes of storing and retrieving user-created content, without accessing any other files or data on the device.
8. Updates to the Privacy Policy
Hi Painter reserves the right to update this privacy policy as needed to reflect changes in app functionality or applicable laws. Any updates to the privacy policy will be clearly communicated to users through in-app notifications or app store updates. However, users can rest assured that Hi Painter will continue to prioritize privacy and will never implement features that compromise the security or privacy of user data without obtaining explicit consent.
9. Contact Information
For any questions or concerns regarding this privacy policy or the app’s permissions, users can contact the Hi Painter support team through the app store listing. While Hi Painter does not collect user data or personal information, the development team is committed to addressing any privacy-related issues that may arise. The goal of Hi Painter is to provide a safe and enjoyable experience, and user privacy is a critical part of that commitment.
