PhotoPhonic
Privacy Policy
INTRODUCTION
Your privacy is a great deal to us. Please go over the following policy to find out what you are asked to agree to (on first entry to app) and how application keeps you private. Also, clarified in the following document is when and how speech recording is applied and what are the effects of it.
USER AGREEMENTS
On your first launch of PhotoPhonic, three alert pop up messages will be launched sequentially. They ask for your approval regarding using these three software modules on your device:
1) Photos Library
2) Speech Recognition
3) Microphone
Reason for all this is that PhotoPhonic app's central feature is to apply photoshop actions on photo assets by voice. Therefore, it is imperative to use software frameworks that retain the capabilities to execute such actions. These software frameworks include: microphone, speech recognition and photo library. You have the full right to decline to all those three requests stated above or part of them. However, PhotoPhonic app will not work properly, if you do decline to one or more of these requests. You may give your consent only to photos access and then app will work, but only in tap mode with no speech recognition and consequently nothing will be sent out (see next clause). In this case, you may work without internet connection.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND RECORDING
PhotoPhonic does NOT collect any information on user of any kind. The only thing that may be sent to Apple is the voice commands you utter to the microphone as a result of us using the speech recognition mechanism. In one of the preliminary consent pop ups initiated by device, on PhotoPhonic's first launch, you may see Apple's statements concerning this issue: "Speech data from this app will be sent to Apple to process your requests. This will also help Apple improve its speech recognition technology". It is a common procedure for every app that needs to use speech recognition and it's not in our control.
Please mind, that this means you'll need an internet access when exercising speak mode in application.
As for photo assets on your device: they are also NOT collected nor sent outside PhotoPhonic app at any time.
INFORMATION PROTECTION
As we do not collect any personal information (except the voice commands Apple may be collecting and were mentioned on previous clauses) your personal information is safe and will not be disclosed to any third party unless you have consented explicitly to such a disclosure, or where there is a legal requirement for this to happen
USER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Any photos you have altered with our filters, are your own intellectual property.
POLICY CHANGES
Any changes to this policy will be posted to an update of the App. You are advised to regularly view our most recent privacy policy.
