1. Information Collection and Use
To provide a functional and efficient experience, our App may require certain permissions and collect specific information:

The App requires access to your device's camera to scan QR codes, barcodes, and documents. This processing happens in real-time. We do not store your camera feed or images on our servers.
B. Media and Storage Access
If you choose to scan a QR code from an existing image in your gallery, the App will request permission to access your device's photos and media. This is strictly for the purpose of selecting and processing the image you provide.
C. Locally Stored Data
The App uses a local database (Room Database) to store your scan history and preferences. This data stays on your device and is not uploaded to our servers. Our "Auto-Delete" feature, managed via WorkManager, helps you manage this local data.
