Privacy Policy - Pointer Board

Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2024

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how Pointer Board collects, uses, and protects your information.

1. Information We Collect

Pointer Board is designed to be a local-first application. We do not collect personal information that can identify you. The following types of data are processed:

  • Images: When you add an item to your board, you can select an image from your gallery or take a new one using your camera.
  • Labels: You provide text labels for each item to assist with communication.

2. How We Use Information

The images and labels you provide are used solely within the app to create a visual communication board. This data is used to display items on your screen and to generate audio via Text-to-Speech technology.

3. Data Storage

All data created within Pointer Board (including images taken with the camera and saved labels) is stored locally on your device. We do not upload your data to any servers.

4. Permissions

To provide its core functionality, the app requires the following permissions:

  • Camera: To allow you to take photos of objects or people to add to your board.
  • Storage/Media: To allow you to select existing images from your device's gallery.

5. Third-Party Services

We do not share any data with third-party services. The Text-to-Speech functionality uses the built-in Android system service, which operates according to Google's privacy standards.

6. Children's Privacy

Our app is intended for users of all ages, including children who may require communication assistance. Because we do not collect any data remotely, we are inherently compliant with privacy regulations regarding children's data.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.
