Privacy Policy for Image Resizer Android App

1. Introduction

Welcome to Image Resizer ("we", "us", "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how the Image Resizer Android application (the "App") handles information when you use it.

The App provides image editing tools such as resizing, compression, cropping, format conversion, rotation, and flipping. We respect your privacy and aim to keep the experience simple and transparent.

By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Image Processing

The App is designed to process your images locally on your device.

• When you select an image, the App accesses it only to provide the editing function you requested.
• Depending on the tool, the App may resize, compress, crop, convert, rotate, or flip the image.
• Your selected images are not uploaded to our servers for processing.
• We do not sell your images, and we do not use the content of your images for advertising.

The App does not scan or access all photos on your device. It accesses only the images you choose through the Android system image picker.

3. Information the App Handles

We do not require you to create an account. We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, home address, or password to use the core editing tools.

4. Permissions

The App may use the following Android capabilities:

• Photo or file access (image picker): to let you choose images to edit and to save processed images to your device.
• Internet and network state: required to load ads and to check connectivity.
• Advertising ID: used by Google AdMob to serve and measure ads. You can reset it or opt out of personalization in your device settings.

5. Temporary Storage and Cache

While processing an image, the App may temporarily use your device's memory, temporary storage, or app cache. Temporary files may be created for processing or sharing. They are used only to provide the requested function, and they are not sold to third parties or used for advertising.

6. Saved and Downloaded Images

When you choose to save or download a processed image, the file is stored on your device. You control which images you keep, and you can remove them at any time with your device's file manager or gallery app.

7. History and Favorites

The App includes History and Favorites features to help you find recently processed images.

• History may store a processed image reference, the tool used, the image format, the processing date, and favorite status.
• This information is stored locally on your device and is not sent to our servers.
• You can clear your History using the controls in the App, or by clearing the App's data or uninstalling it.

8. Sharing Images

If you use the Share feature, the App uses the Android sharing system so you can choose another app or service. The information shared depends on the app or service you choose. Once an image is shared, the privacy policy and practices of that other app or service apply.

9. Advertising and Google AdMob

The App displays ads provided by Google AdMob, a third-party advertising service operated by Google LLC. To show and measure ads, AdMob and its partners may collect and use information such as:

• Advertising ID (such as the Android Advertising ID)
• IP address and approximate location derived from it
• Device information (such as device model, operating system version, language, and screen size)
• App information and usage related to ads (such as ad impressions, clicks, and diagnostics)

This information is used to serve ads, measure ad performance, prevent fraud and abuse, and, where allowed, personalize ads. Depending on your region and settings, ads may be personalized or non-personalized.

We do not share the content of your images with advertisers, and we do not use your images to target ads.

To learn how Google uses data from apps that use its services, visit How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. You can also read the Google Privacy Policy.

10. Consent and Your Ad Choices

Where required by law, such as for users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, the App will ask for your consent before showing personalized ads, using a consent message provided through Google's User Messaging Platform. You can change your choice later if the App offers a privacy options setting.

You can also manage ad settings on your device:

• Reset or delete your advertising ID: go to Android Settings > Privacy (or Google) > Ads.
• Opt out of ad personalization: go to Android Settings > Privacy (or Google) > Ads and turn off ad personalization.
• Manage your Google ad settings: visit adssettings.google.com.

If you opt out of personalization, you may still see ads, but they will be less relevant to you.

11. Other Third-Party Services

Besides Google AdMob, the App does not use third-party services to upload or process your selected images. If we add other third-party services (such as analytics or crash reporting) in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy to explain how they handle information.

12. Data Retention and Deletion

Images, History, and Favorites data stay on your device until you delete them, clear the App's data, or uninstall the App. We do not keep copies of your images or History on our servers.

Data collected by Google AdMob is handled by Google according to its own retention policies. You can limit this collection by resetting your advertising ID or opting out of ad personalization, as described in Section 10.

13. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the App. Because your images are processed locally on your device, they are not transmitted to our servers for processing. However, no software or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

14. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us and we will review the situation and take appropriate action.

15. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

• You decide which images you select, process, save, share, or delete.
• You can clear your History using the controls in the App.
• You can manage ad personalization and reset your advertising ID in your device settings.
• You can uninstall the App at any time using your device's normal uninstall function.

Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under local privacy laws, such as the right to ask what data is held about you or to request its deletion. Because the App does not collect personal information on our servers, most of your data is already under your control on your device. For data handled by Google AdMob, please use the tools described in Section 10 or contact Google directly. For any other request, contact us using the details below.

16. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the App, its features, or its data practices change. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We recommend reviewing this page periodically.
