Privacy Policy

Effective date: 10 November 2026

This policy explains how the PutMyFace Android app ("the app", "we") handles information. The short version: your photos never leave your phone. We have no servers that receive your photos or videos and no user accounts.

1. Photos and faces

• You choose photos from your gallery or take them with the camera. The app finds the face in the photo on your device (using Google ML Kit, which runs offline) and crops it.
• Your videos are created on your device. Photos, cropped faces and videos are never uploaded to us or to anyone else by the app.
• Faces you add are saved only in the app's private storage on your phone so you can reuse them. You can delete them at any time in the app (Saved faces → Delete), or by clearing the app's data or uninstalling it.
• We do not use your face to identify you, and we do not create face templates or biometric identifiers.

2. Sharing

When you tap Share or Save to gallery, the finished video is passed to the app or folder you choose (for example a messaging app). What happens next is governed by that app's own privacy policy.

3. Camera and storage permissions

The app asks for camera access only when you choose to take a photo, and uses the Android photo picker to let you pick images. You can refuse or revoke these permissions in Android settings; the rest of the app keeps working.

4. Advertising (Google AdMob)

The app is free and shows ads through Google AdMob. To serve and measure ads, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect and process, on Google's behalf:

• the device advertising ID, IP address and approximate location derived from it;
• device and app information (model, OS version, app version, language);
• ad interaction data (ads shown, clicks) and crash/diagnostic data for the SDK.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the app shows a consent form (Google User Messaging Platform) before personalised ads are used. You can change your choice at any time from Settings → Privacy choices in the app. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in Android settings.

5. App distribution and diagnostics

The app is distributed through Google Play. Google may collect crash reports and usage statistics under its own policies when you have enabled this in Android or Google Play settings. We may see aggregated, anonymous statistics (for example the number of installs and crash counts) in Google Play Console.

6. What we do not do

• We do not run accounts, logins or profiles.
• We do not sell your personal information.
• We do not upload, store or view your photos or videos.

7. Children

The app is intended for users aged 13 and over and is not directed at children. If you believe a child under 13 has used the app, the photos they added remain only on their device and can be removed by uninstalling the app.

8. Your rights

Because we do not hold your photos or an account for you, there is generally no personal data on our side to access, correct or delete. For data processed by Google for advertising, see Google's privacy controls at myaccount.google.com. Residents of the EEA, UK and US states with privacy laws may contact us with any request and we will respond within the time required by law.

9. Changes

We may update this policy. The new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
