Welcome to Video Cutter (the "App"). We value your privacy and are committed to full transparency. This policy explains how we handle your data, focusing heavily on our safe, "Local-Only" processing approach.
1. Privacy-First Principles Our App is designed with security in mind so that your personal media stays strictly yours.
On-Device Processing: All video cutting, trimming, cropping, and exporting is processed locally on your device's hardware.
No Media Uploads: We do not upload your videos to any external servers. Your personal files and gallery selections never leave your phone.
No Identity Collection: We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or any personal identity data to use the core features of the App.
2. Permissions & Data Usage To provide our core features safely, we require specific permissions, which are only activated with your consent:
Gallery / Media Access: Used to allow you to select existing videos for trimming (via the secure native Android media picker) and to save your finished videos back to your device storage.
Notifications: Used to send you relevant app updates or processing alerts. You can opt-in or out of this permission upon launching the app.
3. Automatic Data Collection (Third-Party Services) While we do not collect your personal media files, we use industry-standard third-party services to improve the app, monitor crashes, and show advertisements. These services may collect non-sensitive technical data (such as device model, OS version, and Advertising IDs):
Google AdMob: To display advertisements. Uses the Android Advertising ID to show relevant ads. AdMob Privacy Policy
Meta (Facebook) Audience Network: To provide relevant ad content. Meta Privacy Policy
Firebase & Google Analytics: To track app performance, session duration, and feature usage (e.g., which video length is most popular). This data is anonymous. Firebase Privacy Policy
Firebase Crashlytics: To collect anonymous crash reports so we can fix bugs and improve stability.
4. Data Safety & Security We use commercially acceptable means to protect any technical data transmitted (like crash reports or analytics), which is encrypted in transit via HTTPS/TLS. Because we do not store your videos or personal media on any server, there is zero risk of your videos being leaked from our systems.
5. Children’s Privacy Video Cutter does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you are a parent and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can take necessary action to delete it.
6. Your Choices
Opt-out of Personalized Ads: You can manage or reset your Advertising ID in your device settings (Settings > Google > Ads) or through the in-app Consent form.
Permission Control: You can revoke Notification or Media access at any time through your device's native App Settings.
7. Changes to This Policy We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as we add new features. Any changes will be posted on this page and become effective immediately.
