This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information within the Open Magnifier mobile application. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a secure user experience.
Our application is designed with Privacy by Design.
No Personal Data Collection: We do not collect, log, or store any personal information, identifiers, or usage statistics.
No Account Required: You do not need to create an account or provide an email address to use the app.
To function as a screen magnifier, the app requires access to your device’s camera.
Purpose: The camera stream is used solely to provide a real-time magnified view on your screen.
Data Handling: The app does not record video or save photos permanently.
To ensure smooth performance, the app may temporarily store the last captured frame in the device's private cache directory.
Security: This file is saved in a private directory that other apps cannot access.
Deletion: This temporary data is automatically deleted as soon as the app process is terminated or closed.
Internet access is required exclusively to download on-device translation models for Google Translate/ML Kit. Once downloaded, no further network access is used. All images and text are processed locally on-device, and your data never leaves your device.
No Third Parties: We do not use third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking libraries.
Since we do not collect any data, our app is safe for users of all ages, including children. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We encourage you to review the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page when updating the app via the Google Play Store.
