Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to ScrollFeed ("the App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information, particularly when the App uses your device’s camera and face detection capabilities to enable gesture-based control. Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to handling your personal information responsibly and transparently.

2. Information We Collect

2.1. Camera Access

The App accesses your device's camera strictly for detecting and analyzing facial gestures (e.g., head movement) to enable gesture-based control. The camera feed is processed entirely on your device; we do not capture, record, or transmit any images or videos.

2.2. App Usage Data

We may collect anonymized data regarding your interaction with the App (e.g., gesture usage frequency, session duration). This data is used to improve app performance and user experience.

3. How We Use Your Information

• Enabling gesture-based interaction
• Enhancing and maintaining app performance
• Improving user experience through aggregated analytics

We do not use your data for identification or profiling purposes.

4. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for their own purposes. However, we use the following services to provide app functionality:

• Google ML Kit (Face Detection): Processes head movement data on-device (Google's Privacy Policy).
• Firebase Analytics: Collects anonymous usage statistics (Google's Privacy Policy).
• Google AdMob: Serves advertisements as described in Section 8 (Google's Privacy Policy).

5. Data Retention

• Face data: Never stored; deleted immediately after processing.
• Analytics data: Stored anonymously in Firebase (retained for 14 months).
• Security measures: Encryption, secure APIs, and minimal data collection.

6. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.

• Device Type and Model
• IP Address

9. Face Detection Technology – Google ML Kit

We use Google ML Kit’s Face Detection API to detect facial gestures.

9.1. Data Collected by Google ML Kit:

• Device info (e.g., model, OS version, available hardware)
• App ID and version
• API configuration settings
• Performance metrics and error logs
• Network request IPs (temporarily stored for diagnostics)

All data processed through ML Kit is used solely to support the functionality of gesture recognition. Google does not use this data for identification or other purposes.
