Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Camera Studio is designed to function with minimal data collection. We only collect limited user information to support optional features such as feedback, Google Drive integration, and aggregate usage analytics.

A. Information You Provide Directly

Feedback Form: If you choose to submit feedback through the app, your email address (auto-filled via Google Sign-In, if applicable) and any attached screenshot will be sent to our support team. This information is used only for support purposes and is not shared externally.

B. Information Collected Through Google Sign-In (Optional)

If you choose to sign in to Camera Studio using your Google Account (e.g., to upload snapshots to Google Drive), we request access to:

• • Email Address: Used to autofill the feedback form and link your session to Google Drive features.
• • Google Drive Access (drive.file scope): Grants permission to save snapshots into a dedicated “Camera Studio” folder in your personal Drive. We do not access, store, or view any other content in your Google Drive.

Signing in with Google is optional. All core features (e.g., camera feed, annotations, snapshot capture to local device) are available without signing in.

C. Information Collected Automatically

• • Usage Analytics: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized and aggregated information about how users interact with the app. This may include feature usage, session duration, device type, crash events, and general behavior trends. This data is used to improve app performance and prioritize feature development.
• • Approximate Location (via Analytics): Google Analytics may infer city-level location data from the user’s IP address to provide insights into geographic usage patterns. Camera Studio does not request location permissions, access precise location, or store this data directly.
• • Device Information: General technical details such as browser type, ChromeOS version, screen resolution, and error logs may be collected in aggregate to help diagnose issues or understand trends across device types.

2. What We Do Not Collect

• • We do not collect user names, profile pictures, or phone numbers.
• • We do not access your full Google Drive - only files you create via the app.
• • We do not use third-party advertising SDKs, cookies, or behavioral tracking tools.
• • We do not collect or store precise location or any financial/payment data.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for various purposes, including:

• I. To provide, operate, and maintain our Services (e.g., allowing you to capture and view documents).
• II. To personalize your experience.
• III. To enable you to save your captured snapshots to your Google Drive, if you choose to use this feature.
• IV. To improve, personalize, and expand our Services.
• V. To understand and analyze how you use our Services.
