Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 23, 2026 | Last Updated: September 23, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how INDD Viewer ("we," "us," or "our") processes user information in connection with our mobile application (the "App"). We prioritize user privacy and comply with applicable Google Play Developer Policies, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

1. Privacy-First On-Device Architecture

INDD Viewer is designed as a local inspection utility. All InDesign (.indd, .indt) document parsing, metadata extraction, font inventories, and page preview rendering occur strictly on your device. Your files and documents are never uploaded, transmitted, or hosted on external servers.

2. Permissions Used in the App

INDD Viewer operates using minimum necessary system permissions to support its functionality while maintaining user privacy.

Storage Access Framework (SAF) — No Broad File Permissions Required

Instead of requesting broad READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE or media permissions, INDD Viewer utilizes Android's native Storage Access Framework (SAF). When you select a document, you grant read access only to that specific file through the system picker.

INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE

Purpose: Allows the App to verify network status, load advertisements (Google AdMob), check for application updates via Google Play, and support network-dependent services used by the App.

POST_NOTIFICATIONS (Android 13+)

Purpose: Enables the App to deliver optional notifications regarding updates or feature releases through OneSignal. You can enable or disable notifications at any time in Android system settings.

3. Information Collected & Third-Party SDKs

We do not collect personal identification information such as your name, email address, physical address, or phone number. However, third-party software development kits (SDKs) integrated into the App may process certain device-related or technical information according to their respective privacy policies.

4. Children's Privacy

INDD Viewer is intended for general audiences and is not specifically directed to children under the age of 13. Applicable age requirements may vary by jurisdiction.

We do not knowingly request personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us so that we can review and address the matter appropriately.

5. Local Storage & Preferences

Application preferences, such as selected language, theme preference, and favorited file references, are stored locally in your device's private SharedPreferences.

You can clear locally stored App data through Android Settings or by uninstalling the App.

6. User Rights & Data Control

7. Security

Document processing is performed locally within the App's Android application environment. This design helps keep document contents on your device rather than transmitting them to an external document-processing server.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes to the App, applicable requirements, or our data practices. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
