Format Fox Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 31, 2026

Format Fox Pro (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how your information is handled when you use our mobile application.

1. Information We Collect

We do not collect any personal information (such as your name, email address, or phone number). The app functions entirely without requiring you to create an account or log in.

A. Permissions We Request

To provide the app’s core features, we request the following permissions on your device:

  • Camera: Used strictly to scan QR codes, barcodes, and documents for OCR (Optical Character Recognition/Text Extraction).
  • Storage (Read/Write): Used to save your generated PDFs, scanned text, and compressed images to your device’s gallery or file manager.

B. Local Processing

We value your privacy. All image processing, text extraction (OCR), PDF creation, and compression happens locally on your device. Your documents and images are never uploaded to our servers or any third-party cloud storage. You maintain complete control over your data.

2. Third-Party Services & Advertising

We use third-party services to monetize the app and ensure it remains free to use. These services may collect and use identifiers (such as your Advertising ID) to show personalized ads.

  • Google AdMob: We use Google AdMob to display banner, interstitial, and rewarded video ads. AdMob may collect data such as device identifiers, IP address, and usage information to serve relevant ads to you.

3. Data Retention

Since we do not collect or store any personal data on our servers, there is no data retention period applicable to our services. All data generated by the app remains solely on your device and is under your control.

4. Your Rights and Choices

You have the right to:

  • Opt out of personalized advertising through your device settings (Android Advertising ID settings)
  • Uninstall the app at any time, which will remove all app-related data from your device
  • Contact us with any privacy-related questions or concerns

5. Security

We strive to use commercially acceptable means of protecting your information. Since all critical processing (scanning, text extraction, and compression) occurs offline on your device, your sensitive documents remain completely in your control and are never transmitted externally.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our Services are not directed to anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so that we can take necessary action.

7. International Users

This app is intended for use globally. By using our app, you consent to the processing of your advertising identifier and device information in accordance with this Privacy Policy, regardless of your country of residence.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes. We will notify you of any significant changes by updating the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy. These changes are effective immediately after they are posted on this page.
