Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Scankaro ("we", "us") handles information when you use our website at scankaro.online. We are committed to being transparent about what data is and is not collected.

Images and document processing

All image processing in Scankaro — including camera capture, cropping, rotation, auto-straighten, enhancement, and A4 layout generation — happens locally in your web browser using HTML Canvas and JavaScript. Your images are not uploaded to, stored on, or processed by any server. When you close or refresh the page, all image data is cleared from your browser memory.

Information we do not collect

Scankaro does not require registration or login. We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, or any other personal information through the tool itself. We do not store your uploaded or captured images on any server.

Cookies

Scankaro does not set cookies for its own functionality. If third-party services such as analytics or advertising are present on the site, those services may set their own cookies. See the sections below for details.

Analytics

If analytics is enabled on this site, it may collect anonymous usage data such as page views, browser type, device type, and general geographic region. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. You can typically opt out of analytics tracking through your browser settings or by using a do-not-track header.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

If Google AdSense or other advertising services are enabled, these third-party vendors may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings page.

Third-party services

Scankaro uses the following third-party resources: jsPDF (for PDF generation, runs locally in the browser), and potentially analytics and advertising services as described above. These services have their own privacy policies. Scankaro does not send your images to any third-party service.

Data retention

Because images are processed locally and not uploaded, there is no image data retained on any server. Any anonymous analytics or advertising data is retained according to the respective service's policies.

Your choices

You can use Scankaro without providing any personal information. To control cookies, adjust your browser settings. To opt out of personalized ads, visit the relevant provider's opt-out page.

Security

Since all image processing happens in your browser and no images are transmitted to a server, your document images remain under your control. We recommend using a modern, up-to-date browser for the best security.

Children's privacy

Scankaro is not directed at children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
