VisualFinderApp

Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 6, 2026

This policy explains how VisualFinderApp handles data when you use the iOS app.

1. Principles and On-Device Processing

The app's core feature, object detection (image analysis), runs entirely on your device. Camera frames and detection results are not sent to a server operated by us or to any third-party server.

2. Camera Access

The app uses the camera for real-time object detection. Camera frames are used only for analysis by an on-device machine learning model and are processed on the device.

3. Saving to the Photo Library

The app saves detected images to your device's photo library only when you explicitly choose to save them. The app requests add-only (write) permission to the photo library and does not read your existing photos.

4. Data Stored on Device

In-app settings such as language, detection parameters, and display options, along with session logs of detection statistics, are stored locally on your device. These do not contain information that identifies you, such as your name or contact details. Session logs can be shared or exported only through your own action.

5. Purchases

The app uses Apple StoreKit for in-app purchases (ad removal, feature unlock, tips) and purchase restoration. Apple processes purchase-related data under Apple's privacy policy. The app reads verified purchase entitlements to unlock features.

6. Advertising and Consent

The app uses Google Mobile Ads SDK and Google User Messaging Platform. Google may collect or process identifiers (such as the IDFA), device information, ad interaction data, approximate location inferred from network data, diagnostics, and other data for ads, consent management, fraud prevention, analytics, or related purposes.

Where required, the app shows Google's consent or privacy options form. In accordance with iOS App Tracking Transparency, you can allow or deny tracking. If you purchase ad removal, no advertising-related communication takes place.

7. Data We Do Not Intentionally Collect

We do not intentionally collect names, email addresses, precise location, contacts, health data, or captured camera frames through our own server. The app does not access location, microphone, contacts, calendar, health, or Bluetooth.

8. Retention and Deletion

Settings and temporary data on the device remain until you delete them in the app or uninstall the app. Images saved to the photo library can be removed from the Photos app. Advertising and purchase providers retain data according to their own policies.

9. Children

The app is not directed to children. Do not use the app where collecting or processing advertising or purchase data would require parental consent that has not been obtained.

10. Third-Party Policies

11. Changes

We may update this policy when the app, SDKs, legal requirements, or data practices change. The effective date shows the latest version date.
