Privacy Policy

📃 ScanForge Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 15, 2025

ScanForge (“the App”, “we”, or “us”) highly values and respects the privacy and data security of our users.

 This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use the App, as well as your rights regarding that information.

1. Information Collection

1.1 No Account Required

All core features of this App (such as creating QR codes, scanning barcodes, and saving history) can be used without registration or login.

 We do not ask you to provide any personal identity information.

1.2 No Personal Data Collection

This App does not collect or store any personally identifiable information, including but not limited to your name, email address, phone number, or contact list.

1.3 Local Processing

All data — including the QR codes and barcodes you create, scan, or save — is processed and stored locally on your device.

 We do not upload, sync, or share this data with any server or third-party service.

1.4 Permission Usage

To ensure normal functionality, the App may request the following necessary permissions:

- 📷 Camera Permission: Used only to scan QR codes or barcodes.

- 💾 Storage Permission: Used to save or access code images generated locally on your device.

These permissions are strictly limited to their intended purposes and are not used to collect or upload any data.

2. Information Usage

Since the App does not collect user data, we do not analyze, share, or use any of the content you generate during use.

 All data remains fully under your control and management.

3. Data Security

- All generated or scanned content is stored only on your local device and is never transmitted over the internet.

- We do not back up, analyze, or remotely access your data in any way.

- You can delete, manage, or share your stored data at any time through the history feature.

We always adhere to the principle of data minimization, ensuring that all processing remains secure, transparent, and under your control.

4. Third-Party Services

In future versions, if optional third-party services are introduced, we will clearly notify users in advance and update this Privacy Policy to describe such integrations.

5. Children’s Privacy

This App is intended for general users and is not specifically designed for children.

 We do not knowingly collect or store any information from children under the age of 13 (or the minimum legal age in your jurisdiction).

6. Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically due to functional improvements or legal requirements.

 When updates occur, we will notify users within the App or in the update log and adjust the “Effective Date” accordingly.

 Continued use of the App after updates means you agree to the revised policy.
