Privacy Policy

1 Overview & Privacy Philosophy

This Privacy Policy explains how Prosperity Tech ("we", "us", or "our") manages information collected and processed through our mobile application DocScan PDF Maker (also distributed and referred to as Swift Scan, Package ID: com.document.scanner.scan.to.pdf).

2 Information We Do NOT Collect

Unlike cloud-dependent scanning utilities, our architecture is engineered with privacy as the core foundation:

• No Document Image Uploads: Captured camera frames and imported photos are never sent to cloud servers.
• No File Retention on Remote Servers: Scanned documents, OCR text extractions, and PDF outputs exist solely within your device's sandboxed local storage.
• No Biometric or Personal Profiling: We do not scan, capture, or harvest facial geometry, fingerprints, or personal identity profiles.
• No Third-Party Ad Profiling: We do not sell or monetize your document history or personal information to advertising networks or data brokers.

3 Device Permissions & Usage

To provide high-quality scanning and document conversion, the application requests the following device permissions:

• Camera Permission: Required to capture live photographs of physical documents, receipts, business cards, whiteboards, or notes for scanning. Camera access is active only while you are capturing scans inside the app.
• Storage / Photo Library Permission: Required to allow you to import existing images from your photo gallery for PDF conversion and to save generated PDF files to your device storage.
• Notifications Permission (Optional): If enabled, used to deliver infrequent notices regarding feature updates, product improvements, or processing status. You may revoke notification access at any time via system settings.

4 Limited Technical Telemetry & Diagnostics

To ensure high stability across various Android and iOS device models, the application collects limited, anonymized technical telemetry via Google Firebase:

• Firebase Analytics: Aggregated, non-personally identifiable app interaction metrics (such as app open count, PDF creation action counts, and session duration). No document contents or image data are ever included in analytics payloads.
• Firebase Crashlytics: Automated crash logs, stack traces, and non-identifiable system diagnostics (device model, operating system version, memory status) when an unhandled application exception occurs.
• Firebase Remote Config: Dynamic configuration parameters used to roll out feature improvements and app update advisories.
• User-Initiated Feedback (Cloud Firestore): When you voluntarily submit feedback or rating reviews through the in-app feedback dialog, your star rating and typed comments are stored securely in Cloud Firestore for our team to review.

5 Third-Party Service Providers

The application integrates with industry-standard developer platforms provided by Google LLC:

• Google Firebase: Used for crash telemetry, anonymized performance metrics, and optional feedback collection. Governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
• Google ML Kit: On-device machine learning library powering text recognition (OCR). ML Kit processes text directly within the device processor; text does not get uploaded to Google servers.
• Google Play Store / Apple App Store: Provides secure distribution, billing, and system update management.

6 Data Retention & Local Data Control

Because your scans and PDF documents reside exclusively on your physical device:

• You retain 100% control over your files. You can delete individual scans, clear history, or wipe all app data at any time through the app settings or the operating system application management settings.
• Uninstalling the application permanently deletes local app cache and sandboxed scanning documents stored within the app container.
• Technical analytics and crash logs are retained in accordance with Google Firebase's standard retention cycles (typically 2 to 14 months) before automated purging.

7 Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

DocScan PDF Maker is a general audience productivity tool and is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Economic Area). We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children. If you become aware that a minor has submitted personal information through our feedback mechanism, please notify us, and we will promptly delete it.

8 Global Privacy Rights (GDPR & CCPA / CPRA)

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights under data protection laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), or India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP):

• Right to Erase / Delete: Because document files exist only on your device, deleting the app or clearing local data fulfills full document deletion. For deletion of optional feedback submitted with your email, contact us.
• Right to Non-Discrimination: We do not discriminate against users who choose to opt out of non-essential permissions or telemetry.
• Right to Inquire: You may contact our data team at any time to verify any diagnostic records linked to your feedback.

9 Updates to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to accommodate application updates, regulatory updates, or feature additions. Any revisions will be published on this URL with an updated "Effective Date". Continued use of the application after changes constitute acceptance of the updated policy.
