This policy explains what information DocuScan collects, why, and the choices you have about it.
DocuScan ("DocuScan," "we," "us," or "our") provides a document scanning application and this website (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you visit our website or use our app. Please read it carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this policy, please do not access the Service.
We collect information in a few different ways:
We use the information we collect to:
Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to keep the site functional, understand how visitors use it, and — where applicable — to support advertising.
We and our partners, including Google, use first-party and third-party cookies together to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings, including blocking or deleting them. Blocking some types of cookies may impact your experience of the site and the services we can offer.
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Service and fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Scanned documents remain in your account until you delete them; deleted files are removed from active systems immediately and from backup systems within 30 days.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, or export your data, and the right to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
Residents of the European Economic Area, the UK, and California may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR and the CCPA, including the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn we have collected information from a child without verified parental consent, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us.
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards — including encryption in transit and at rest — designed to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than the one in which you reside. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, to protect information transferred internationally.
Our website and app may contain links to third-party sites or services we do not operate. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of any third-party site. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, provide additional notice such as an in-app message or email.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or our data practices, contact us at support@docuscan.app or write to us at 548 Market Street, San Francisco, CA 94104. You can also reach us through our Contact page.
