Privacy Policy
CleanScan Privacy Policy - Android App
Permissions
Permission: WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
Purpose:
The app requests the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission to save corrected and cleaned images to the user’s device.
Explanation:
When users edit or enhance images within the app (e.g., by cleaning, correcting perspective, or removing noise), the app needs to store the processed output so that users can access and share their enhanced images outside the app. This permission enables the app to write the resulting files to the external storage (such as the Pictures folder or a custom app folder).
Usage Context:
- Saving cleaned or corrected versions of imported or scanned images.
- Exporting files to user-accessible locations for viewing or sharing.
- Ensuring persistent access to enhanced images across app sessions.
Privacy & Security:
- The app does not modify or access unrelated files on the user’s device.
- Only images processed within the app are saved, and only to clearly defined storage directories.
- The data is not transmitted or shared without explicit user action.
android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES
Permission: android.permission.CAMERA
Purpose:
The app requires access to the device camera to enable users to capture images directly within the app for processing and enhancement.
Explanation:
This permission is essential for the app’s core functionality, which involves real-time image input from the user. By accessing the camera, the app allows users to:
- Capture new photos that can be immediately cleaned, corrected, or enhanced.
- Streamline workflows by eliminating the need to use an external camera app.
- Ensure high-quality input for better image processing results.
Usage Context:
- Opening the camera from within the app to take pictures.
- Capturing documents, photos, or other visuals for processing.
- Providing an integrated experience for real-time image capture and enhancement.
Privacy & Security:
- The camera is only activated when the user explicitly chooses to take a photo within the app.
- No background or unauthorized camera usage occurs.
- Captured images are stored securely and are not shared without user consent.
