Privacy Policy for Gallery

Last Updated: August 30, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Gallery ("we", "our", or "the app") handles your information.

1. Information We Access

Gallery accesses photos and videos stored locally on your device. This is necessary to provide the core functionality of viewing, organizing, and editing your media.

2. How Media Is Used

All media processing (cropping, rotation, filters) is performed locally on your device. Your original media files are never modified without your explicit action.

3. Data Collection

The core functionality of Gallery operates entirely offline and does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information or media files to external servers. However, integrated third-party services (like Google AdMob) may collect certain non-personally identifiable information for advertising purposes.

4. Data Sharing

Gallery does not share your personal data or media with third parties automatically. Sharing is strictly user-initiated via the Android system's share sheet.

5. Advertising and Third-Party Services

Gallery uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. AdMob may collect and use information such as:

Device advertising ID
Location data (if system permissions allow)
Interaction with ads

This data is used to provide relevant advertising and is handled according to Google's Privacy Policy .

6. Biometric Data

Gallery uses the Android Biometric API for security features. The application never accesses, collects, or stores your biometric data (fingerprints, face scans). All processing is performed securely by the Android system hardware.

7. Permissions

The app requests the following permissions:

READ_MEDIA_IMAGES / READ_MEDIA_VIDEO: To display your media.
INTERNET: To load advertisements via AdMob.
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Used on older Android versions for media access.

8. User Control and Deletion

You have full control over your media. Deletions require your explicit confirmation via the Android MediaStore API.

9. Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Our advertising partners (AdMob) may serve ads that are appropriate for all ages, but we do not collect any PII from users of any age.

10. Policy Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available within the app and on our official repository.
