1. Introduction
Welcome to Skencil File Reader ("App", "we", "our", or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the App to browse, view, search, organize, and manage files on your Android device.
We designed the App to provide convenient access to design, document, and image files while keeping file processing primarily on your device.
2. Files You Open With the App
Skencil File Reader allows you to select and access files stored on your device, including supported Sketch, SVG, PDF, Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and image files.
File access is performed to provide features such as viewing, searching, file details, favorites, recent files, sharing, renaming, and deletion when supported by Android and the selected file.
3. Information We May Process
The App does not require you to create an account to use its core file-viewing features.
Depending on the features you use, the App may process information locally on your device such as:
- File names and file paths.
- File sizes and modification dates.
- Recently opened files.
- Favorite file references.
- Information required to display supported files.
- App settings and preferences.
This information is used to provide the App's file browsing, viewing, organization, and settings features.
4. Storage and File Access
Android permissions may be requested when necessary to access images, videos, or other files selected by you.
Depending on your Android version and the way you select a file, Android may provide the App with access only to the files or folders you authorize.
You can manage or revoke applicable permissions through your Android device settings.
5. Sharing and Opening Files in Other Apps
When you choose to share a file or open a file with another application, Android's sharing and intent mechanisms may transfer the selected file to the application you choose.
Any information received by another application is governed by that application's own privacy policy and terms.
6. Advertising
The App uses Google AdMob to display advertisements.
Advertising providers may process information such as advertising identifiers, device information, approximate location information, app interactions, and other information permitted by their services to provide, measure, and improve advertising.
Depending on your location, applicable consent choices, and Google's advertising settings, advertisements may be personalized or non-personalized.
7. Notifications
The App may request notification permission to provide notifications or other app-related messages.
Notifications are subject to your Android notification settings. You can disable notification permission through your device settings where supported.
8. Third-Party Services
The App may use third-party libraries and services to support functionality such as advertising, networking, application updates, file rendering, and notifications.
These services may process limited technical or device-related information according to their own privacy policies and applicable terms.
- Google Mobile Ads / AdMob
- Google Play services
- OneSignal
- Android system services
We do not control the privacy practices of third-party services. We encourage you to review their respective privacy policies.
9. Network and Internet Access
Internet access may be used for services such as advertisements, application updates, notifications, and other network-enabled functionality.
The App's normal file-viewing functionality does not require you to upload your selected design files to a remote server.
10. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the App. However, no electronic storage or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You are responsible for protecting sensitive files stored on your device and for choosing appropriate applications when sharing files.
11. Children's Privacy
The App is not specifically directed toward children under the applicable minimum age for online services in their jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us so that appropriate action can be considered.
12. Your Choices
Depending on your Android version and location, you may be able to:
- Control file and media permissions.
- Control notification permissions.
- Manage advertising preferences through Google settings.
- Delete files and favorites from within the App.
- Remove the App from your device.
13. Data Retention
Locally stored application information is retained only as needed to provide the App's features and according to your device and application settings.
Files that you manage with the App remain under your control on your device unless you explicitly share, move, rename, delete, or otherwise transfer them.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the App, applicable requirements, or our practices.
When changes are made, the updated version will be published with a revised effective date.
