Privacy Policy

DocsMining App - How your data is handled and protected.

Effective date: 20 May 2026  ·  Version: 1.2.1+7  ·  Publisher: Hasnain Butt Akhtar

1. Overview

DocsMining is an Android document scanner with on-device OCR, translation, biometric Vault, and PDF / DOCX / Markdown / CSV export.

Scans, recognised text, translations, annotations, and folders never leave your device. All processing happens locally via Google ML Kit on-device models.

We do not sell, share, or monetize the contents of your documents.

2. Data We Do NOT Collect

DocsMining does not collect or send the following to the developer:

Identity Data

Name, email, phone number, or any personal identity data. The app has no user accounts.

Your Documents

Page images, OCR text, translations, annotations, and metadata stay in app-private storage on your device.

Location

DocsMining never requests or reads location data.

Contacts (read)

The Business Card → Contact feature only writes a contact you explicitly approve. It does not read or upload your address book.

Biometric Data

Biometric authentication is performed by Android. DocsMining never sees your fingerprint or face data.

Telemetry

No analytics SDK, no crash-reporting SDK, no third-party telemetry of any kind ships in the app.

3. Data Stored Locally

Document Library

Page images, OCR text, annotations, tags, folders, and the audit timeline live in app-private SQLite + file storage.

Translation Memory

Past translations are cached locally to speed up repeat work. The cache never leaves the device.

Vault State

The "Move to Vault" flag and biometric-prompt settings are stored locally; documents remain in app-private storage gated by an OS-level biometric check.

Branding

Your watermark text and logo file are stored locally and applied to your exports only.

Entitlement Flag

A local Pro-active flag plus cached purchase token are stored to keep Pro working offline.

Exports

PDF / DOCX / Markdown / TXT / CSV files are written only when you explicitly export, and remain on your device until you share them.

4. Network Activity

DocsMining is offline-first. The only outbound calls are:

Purchase Validation

When you buy Pro, the purchase token is sent to our validation endpoint (tpfpkotpgvgusfghepba.supabase.co) to verify the transaction with Google Play. The token is verification-only; no document data is sent.

ML Kit Model Downloads

The first time you use OCR or translation in a given language, Google Play Services downloads the on-device model. Subsequent uses are fully offline.

Google AdMob (Free tier only)

Free users may see native ads. Pro users see no ads, and the AdMob SDK is never initialized on Pro devices. See section 5 below.

Optional Outbound Links

If you tap a link to hasnainstudiox.com or the developer's email, your default browser / mail app opens. No data is sent by DocsMining itself.

5. Advertising (Free Tier)

DocsMining Free shows Google AdMob Native Advanced ads. Pro removes all ads.

Data Collected by AdMob

Google AdMob may collect the Android Advertising ID, coarse device information (model, OS version), and basic ad-interaction signals for serving and frequency capping. Refer to Google's Ads Privacy Policy for full details.

No Document Data Shared

The contents of your scans, OCR text, translations, and folders are never shared with AdMob or any ad network.

Opting Out

You can reset or limit your Android Advertising ID at Settings → Privacy → Ads on your device. Upgrading to Pro removes ads entirely and disables the AdMob SDK on your device.

EU / UK / EEA Users

Where required by GDPR / ePrivacy law, a consent prompt is shown before personalised ads are served. You can change your consent at any time from device-level Ads settings.

6. Google Play Purchases

DocsMining offers a one-time Pro unlock via Google Play Billing. Payment and transaction processing are handled by Google Play under Google's policies.

DocsMining does not process or store payment card details.

7. App Permissions

Camera

For document capture. Frames stay local - never uploaded.

Photos / Media

To import existing images you choose, and to attach a brand logo for exports.

Biometric

For Vault unlock. Handled by the Android biometric prompt; DocsMining never receives biometric templates.

Write Contacts

Only when you tap "Save as contact" on a Business Card scan. The app does not read or sync your address book.

8. Children's Privacy

DocsMining is intended for general productivity users and is not directed to children under 13.
