Privacy Policy
Effective Date: June 22, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Smart Printer collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use our macOS application. We value your privacy and are committed to keeping your information secure and transparent.
By using Smart Printer, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
Smart Printer is designed to help users print documents, images, labels, forms, templates, and other printable content. We do not require users to create an account to use the app.
1.1 Personal Information
We do not directly collect personal information such as your name, address, phone number, or personal contact details through the app.
If you contact us by email for support, we may receive your email address and any information you choose to include in your message. This information is used only to respond to your request.
1.2 Files and Documents
Smart Printer may allow you to select files from your Mac, iCloud Drive, or other user-selected locations for viewing, editing, converting, or printing.
Your selected files may include PDFs, images, documents, text files, labels, templates, or other printable content.
We do not upload, sell, or share your selected files with third parties unless a specific app feature clearly requires online processing and you choose to use that feature. Files selected from your device remain under your control.
1.3 Printer and Device Information
To provide printing features, the app may access printer-related information available through macOS, such as selected printer, print settings, page size, orientation, and print options.
We may also collect limited non-personal technical information, such as device type, macOS version, app version, crash reports, diagnostics, and general usage performance data to improve app stability and functionality.
1.4 Usage and Analytics Data
We may collect non-personal usage information, such as which features are used, app performance, errors, crash reports, and general interaction data.
This information helps us improve the app, fix bugs, enhance printing features, and provide a better user experience.
2. How We Use Information
We use collected information for the following purposes:
- To provide printing, file selection, document preview, and export features
- To improve app performance, reliability, and user experience
- To fix bugs, crashes, and technical issues
- To respond to user support requests
- To understand how users interact with app features
- To maintain app security and prevent misuse
We do not sell your personal information.
3. File Access and Permissions
Smart Printer may request access to files, folders, printers, or user-selected locations only when needed for app functionality.
On macOS, the app may use system permissions such as:
- User-selected file access
- User-selected folder access
- Printing access
The app only accesses files or folders that you choose or allow through macOS system dialogs.
4. Sharing of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
We may share limited information only in the following cases:
4.1 Service Providers
We may use trusted third-party services for analytics, crash reporting, cloud features, or app performance monitoring. These services are only allowed to process information needed to provide their services.
4.2 Legal Requirements
We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or government request.
4.3 App Store and Platform Services
The app is distributed through Apple’s App Store. Apple may process certain information related to downloads, purchases, subscriptions, crash reports, and app usage according to Apple’s own privacy policies.
5. Third-Party Services
Smart Printer may include or interact with third-party services, such as cloud storage providers, analytics tools, printing services, or subscription/payment systems.
Any third-party service is governed by its own privacy policy. We recommend reviewing third-party privacy policies before using those services.
6. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
However, no method of digital transmission or storage is completely secure. While we work to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Children’s Privacy
Smart Printer is not directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If we become aware that a child has provided personal information without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.
8. Data Retention
We retain information only for as long as needed to provide app functionality, respond to support requests, improve the app, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes.
Support emails may be retained for communication and record-keeping purposes unless deletion is requested.
9. Your Choices
You may control app permissions through macOS system settings.
You may also choose not to provide certain permissions, but some features may not work properly without access to selected files, folders, printers, or network services.
You may contact us to request deletion of support-related information you have provided by email.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will become effective when the updated policy is posted.
We encourage users to review this Privacy Policy periodically for updates.
