Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 23, 2026

The short version: ScanPine processes your documents entirely on your device. We don’t have a server that receives your scans, we don’t require an account to scan, and we don’t sell your data — because we never collect it.

1. Documents you scan

All scanning, cropping, rotation, PDF generation and (where available) text recognition happen locally on your phone. Your scanned images and PDFs are stored only in the app’s private storage on your device. We do not upload, transmit, or have any access to them.

2. Camera access

ScanPine asks for camera permission solely to capture documents. The camera is used only while you are actively scanning. We do not record video or capture images outside of a scan you initiate.

3. Optional cloud backup

If we offer cloud backup or sync in the future, it will be strictly opt-in and off by default. If you enable it, your documents would be stored in your own personal cloud account (e.g. iCloud) under that provider’s privacy terms. ScanPine will never enable it without your explicit action.

4. Purchases

Subscriptions and purchases are processed by Apple’s App Store or Google Play. We receive only the anonymous purchase status needed to unlock Pro features. We never see your payment details.

5. Analytics & crash reports

We may collect anonymous, aggregated usage and crash diagnostics to improve the app. These contain no document content and no personally identifying information. Where required, you can opt out in the app settings.

6. Children

ScanPine is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from them.

7. Changes

We’ll update this page if our practices change and revise the “last updated” date above.
