Privacy Policy

Collage Studio  |  Last updated: April 1, 2026

Summary: Collage Studio works entirely offline. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers. Everything stays on your device.

1. Overview

Collage Studio is a photo collage maker that runs entirely on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers. All photo processing and storage happens locally on your device only.

2. Information We Access

2.1 Photos and Media

When you tap "Create Collage," the app requests access to your device's photo library so you can select images. The app:

• Reads only the photos you explicitly choose via the system image picker.
• Does not scan, upload, or transmit any photos to any server.
• Does not access photos automatically in the background.

2.2 Local Storage

Collage Studio saves finished collage files (PNG images) and their metadata (layout type, creation date, file paths) to a local database (Hive) on your device. This data:

• Never leaves your device.
• Is deleted when you delete a collage inside the app or uninstall the app.

3. Permissions Requested

Permission	Why it is needed
READ_MEDIA_IMAGES / READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE	To let you pick photos from your gallery when creating a collage.
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (Android < 10)	To save the finished collage image to your device storage.

We request only the permissions necessary for core functionality. Permissions are requested at runtime. You may deny them, but the app requires photo access to function.

4. Data Sharing

We do not share, sell, rent, or trade your data with any third party. The only time data leaves your device is when you explicitly tap the "Share" button, which hands the collage image to your device's native share sheet (e.g., WhatsApp, email, etc.). We have no control over how third-party apps handle data you share through the native share sheet.

5. Third-Party Services

Collage Studio does not integrate any of the following:

• Analytics or crash-reporting SDKs (e.g., Firebase, Crashlytics, Sentry)
• Advertising networks
• Social login or account systems
• Cloud storage or sync services

The app has no internet permission and makes no network requests.

6. Children's Privacy

Collage Studio does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. Because the app collects no personal data at all, it is safe for general audiences. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, please contact us so we can address the issue.

7. Data Security

Since all data remains on your device and is never transmitted, the security of your information depends on your device's own security (screen lock, encryption, etc.). We strongly recommend keeping your device up to date and secured with a PIN or biometric lock.

8. Data Retention and Deletion

All collage data is stored locally on your device:

• Delete a collage: Tap the delete icon on any collage card in the dashboard. The record is removed from the local database immediately.
• Delete all data: Uninstalling the app removes all app data, including the Hive database and any collage files stored in the app's temporary directory.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
