Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how this app (the “App”) handles information when you use it. The App is a utility that displays a live feed from a compatible external USB camera (e.g., endoscope/borescope/microscope) on iPad and allows you to save snapshots to your Photos library.

We do not require you to create an account, and we do not ask for your name, phone number, or address in the App.

• Camera permission: The App requests camera permission to display video from a connected external USB camera. The live feed is processed on-device for display. The App does not upload your camera feed.
• Photos (Add Only): If you choose to save a snapshot, the App requests permission to add images to your Photos library. The App does not need full photo-library read access to save snapshots.

The App may display ads using Google AdMob. Depending on your region, choices, and device settings, ads may be non-personalized or personalized.

Where required (for example, in the EEA/UK), the App uses Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) to request consent before requesting ads.

When ads are enabled, Google’s Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) may collect or receive certain information to deliver ads, measure performance, prevent fraud/abuse, and improve reliability. According to Google’s App Store data disclosure guidance, this may include: [oai_citation:2‡Google for Developers](https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/privacy/data-disclosure?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

• IP address (may be used to estimate a device’s general location).
• Device identifiers and related advertising identifiers (for example, the advertising identifier if tracking is allowed; otherwise it may be unavailable/limited by OS settings). [oai_citation:3‡Apple Developer](https://developer.apple.com/app-store/user-privacy-and-data-use/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)
• Advertising data (such as ad impressions, clicks, and related measurement signals).
• Diagnostics (such as crash logs and performance data to improve stability and troubleshoot issues).
• User interaction data with ads (for example, which ads were shown and how they were interacted with).

The exact data processed can vary depending on your consent choices, device settings (including tracking settings), and the configuration of ads (personalized vs non-personalized). [oai_citation:4‡Google for Developers](https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/privacy/data-disclosure?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

The consent flow (UMP) is used to present consent choices and store your consent status/choices so the App can determine whether it is allowed to request ads. The App does not ask you for your name or email during the consent flow.

We do not directly collect personal information such as your name, email, phone number, contacts, or precise location. We do not operate user accounts inside the App.

If ads are enabled, certain ad-related data may be processed by Google as described above.

• To provide the App’s functionality (display external camera feed and save snapshots to Photos).
• To display ads (if enabled) and measure ad performance.
• To maintain security, prevent abuse, and improve reliability (e.g., diagnostics/crash logs from SDKs).

We do not sell your personal information. If ads are enabled, the App shares limited information with Google (AdMob/UMP) as needed to deliver and measure ads and to comply with consent requirements. [oai_citation:5‡Apple Developer](https://developer.apple.com/app-store/app-privacy-details/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

• Camera feed: processed on-device; not uploaded by the App.
• Snapshots: saved to your Photos library only when you choose to save them.
• Ad-related data: handled by Google according to Google’s retention practices and policies.

• Permissions: You can grant or revoke Camera and Photos permissions in iOS/iPadOS Settings.
• Ads & consent: Where applicable, you can adjust consent choices when prompted, and manage tracking permissions in device settings. [oai_citation:6‡Apple Developer](https://developer.apple.com/app-store/user-privacy-and-data-use/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

The App is not directed to children under 13 (or the age defined by local law), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the “Last updated” date at the top when changes are made.
