Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

1. Introduction

Pix Converter ("the App") is developed and operated by Scratterz ("we", "us", "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our App.

This policy applies globally and is designed to comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD), and other applicable data protection laws.

2. Data We Collect

2.1 Data stored locally on your device

The following data is processed and stored exclusively on your device. We never have access to it:

  • Conversion history — converted files and timestamps
  • App settings — theme, language, default format preferences
  • Recent files — recently used image files

2.2 Data collected by third-party services

The App uses the following third-party services that may collect data as described below:

Service Data Collected Purpose
Google AdMob IP address, device identifiers, ad interaction data, diagnostic information Displaying advertisements
Google UMP SDK Consent preferences GDPR/CCPA consent management
Google Play Billing Purchase transaction data Processing ad-free upgrade purchases

About advertising: The App displays ads via Google AdMob to support free development. AdMob may collect device identifiers and usage data to serve relevant ads. All data is encrypted in transit via TLS. In the EU/EEA, personalized ads are only shown with your explicit consent.

You can remove all ads permanently with a one-time in-app purchase, or watch a short video to enjoy the App ad-free for 24 hours. Purchasing the ad-free option stops all ad-related data collection entirely.

3. Data We Do NOT Collect

We want to be transparent about what we do not do:

  • We do not collect your name, email, phone number, or any personal identifiers
  • We do not access your contacts, location, or other personal data
  • We do not upload your images to any server — all processing is local
  • We do not sell personal data to anyone
  • We do not use any analytics or tracking SDKs beyond AdMob

4. App Permissions

The App requests only the permissions it needs:

Permission Required Purpose
Storage Yes Reading and saving image files. Required to access your photos for conversion and save converted files.
Internet No Required only for ads and in-app purchases. All image conversion works completely offline.
AD_ID No Advertising identifier used by AdMob. Not collected if you purchase the ad-free upgrade.

5. Advertising

The App displays ads through Google AdMob to fund ongoing development and keep the App free. AdMob may collect and process certain data including device identifiers, IP address, and interaction data to show relevant advertisements.

  • EU/EEA (GDPR): Personalized ads are only shown with your explicit consent, collected via the Google UMP consent dialog.
  • California (CCPA): You have the right to opt out of the sale of personal information.
  • Brazil (LGPD): Data processing for advertising is based on legitimate interest or consent.
  • Other regions: Applicable local data protection laws are respected.

You can manage your ad privacy preferences at any time via Settings within the App.

6. Data Security

Your local app data is stored in the App's private storage on your device, accessible only by the App itself. All data transmitted to third-party services (AdMob) is encrypted in transit using TLS (Transport Layer Security).

We recommend enabling a device lock (PIN, fingerprint, or face recognition) for additional protection of your data.

7. Data Retention & Deletion

Local data: You can delete converted files, clear your conversion history, or delete all app data at any time within the App. Uninstalling the App automatically removes all locally stored data.

AdMob data: If you withdraw consent via the UMP consent dialog, identifier data is no longer transmitted with ad requests. You can also manage data associated with your Google account at myaccount.google.com. myaccount.google.com

8. Your Rights

Regardless of your location, you have the following rights regarding your data:

  • Right to access: All your data is accessible directly in the App (conversion history, settings).
  • Right to deletion: Delete individual entries or your entire history at any time.
  • Right to data portability: Your converted files are standard image files you can freely move and share.
  • Right to object: Manage ad consent preferences at any time.
  • Right to withdraw consent: Revoke ad personalization consent via the App's settings.

9. Children's Privacy

The App is designed for a general audience and does not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age of 13. Since all user-generated data is stored locally and no personal information is collected by us, the App is safe for users of all ages. The App does not target children as its primary audience.

10. Third-Party Links

The App may open external links (e.g., the Google Play Store). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the App or applicable laws. Significant changes will be communicated through an in-app notification. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. The "Last updated" date at the top indicates the most recent revision.
