"Extract from ID" Privacy Policy

General

We are committed to protecting your personal information. The "Extract from ID" feature has been designed to prioritize your privacy and security. This feature allows users to extract information from government-issued identification documents in a manner that ensures the protection of their personal data.

What Information Do We Collect?

• Text extracted from the image of the ID, which may include:
  • Name
  • Address
  • Date of birth
  • Identification numbers
• Metadata such as the time of extraction and app usage information.

No image or raw data from your ID is stored on our servers.

How Do We Use Your Information?

• Formatting the extracted information into a structured format for your use (e.g., name, address, and ID number).
• Enabling features within the app that rely on structured ID information.

To format the extracted text into structured data, we utilize the Gemini API. This allows us to organize the information (e.g., separating name, address, and ID fields) for display within the app.

We do not store the extracted data or use it for any purposes other than those explicitly outlined here.

How Is Your Information Processed?

1. On Your Device: The text extraction is performed locally on your device using Google MLKit. This ensures that the image of your ID and the initial text extraction process remain within your control.
2. Secure Transmission to Backend: Once the text is extracted, it is transmitted securely to our backend for formatting. The extracted data is processed using the Gemini API to convert it into a structured format (e.g., separating name, address, and other fields). All data transfers are encrypted using industry-standard protocols.

Data Retention and Deletion

The app does not retain the original image of your ID. The extracted text is temporarily processed by the backend and is not stored once the formatted output is returned to your device. If you request additional processing, such as data export or deletion, we will comply in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Third-Party Services

The "Extract from ID" feature utilizes Google MLKit, a secure on-device service for text recognition. Google MLKit processes the image exclusively on your device and does not share it with Google or third parties.

For further processing, data is sent to our backend and formatted using the Gemini API. The Gemini API processes only the extracted text to organize it into structured data. This data is not shared with other third parties unless required by law.

How Do We Protect Your Information?

• On-Device Processing: The initial extraction of text from the ID image is performed locally on your device, ensuring the image and extracted text are not unnecessarily exposed.
• Encrypted Data Transmission: When data is sent to our backend, it is encrypted to prevent unauthorized access.
• Limited Access: Our backend is designed to process your data temporarily. Extracted data is deleted immediately after formatting is complete.

User Controls

You can choose to enable or disable the "Extract from ID" feature at any time. You retain full control over the data processed by this feature. Data can be cleared from the app at your discretion. Location services or additional device permissions required for other app features do not affect the privacy of this feature.
