Privacy Policy for DerAK Scanner

Effective date: September 13, 2026

DerAK Scanner ("the App") is a document-scanning app for Android developed by Derak Soft ("we", "us"). This policy explains what information the App accesses, how it is used, and your choices. We built the App to work entirely on your device — we do not run a server, and we do not collect, sell, or share your documents or photos with anyone.

Information the App accesses

• Camera. Used only when you actively scan a document. Photos you capture are processed and saved on your device; the App does not transmit camera images anywhere.
• Photos / documents you scan. Stored in the App's private storage on your device only. They are never uploaded to us or to any third-party server by the App itself.
• Text recognition (OCR). When you choose to run OCR on a page, recognition is performed on-device using Google ML Kit's on-device text recognition (for Latin-script text) and the on-device Tesseract OCR engine (for Arabic text). No image or extracted text is sent to a server to perform OCR.

Subscriptions and payments

DerAK Scanner offers an optional Pro subscription (monthly or yearly) via Google Play Billing. All payment details (card numbers, billing address, etc.) are collected and processed entirely by Google Play — we never see or store your payment information. We only receive confirmation from Google Play of whether you have an active subscription, which is used to unlock Pro features.

What we do not do

• We do not show ads and do not use any advertising SDKs.
• We do not use analytics or tracking SDKs.
• We do not collect your name, email, contacts, location, or precise device identifiers.
• We do not sell or share your data with third parties.
• We do not require an account or sign-in to use the App.

Data deletion

All scanned documents and settings are stored locally on your device. Uninstalling the App, or clearing its storage/data from Android Settings, permanently deletes everything the App has stored. Since we do not operate a server or account system, there is no remote copy of your data for us to delete.

Children's privacy

DerAK Scanner is a general-purpose productivity tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in the App. The "Effective date" above will be updated accordingly. Continued use of the App after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
