1. Introduction
Welcome to Smart Calculator
Toolkit ("the App"), developed and published by Low Cost EMI
("we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy
explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you

you agree to the terms described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree,
please do not install or use the App.
2. Information We Collect

The App is primarily a utility
calculator application. We do not require you to create an account or submit
personal information. However, the following data may be processed locally on
your device:
•
Numbers and values entered
into calculators (unit, currency, BMI, loan, tip, etc.)
•
Images or photos captured
via camera for the AI formula scanner feature (processed locally or via AI API)
•

2.2 Information Collected Automatically
When you use the App, certain
technical data may be collected automatically, including:
•
Device information (model,
OS version, screen resolution)
•
App usage data (features
accessed, frequency of use)
•
Crash logs and diagnostic
data (via Google Firebase Crashlytics, if integrated)
•
Anonymized analytics data
(via Google Analytics for Firebase, if integrated)
2.3 Camera Permission
The App requests access to your
device camera solely for the AI Calculator feature, which allows you to scan
and recognize mathematical formulas. Camera access is used only when you
explicitly activate this feature. We do not store, transmit, or share any
images or photos captured by your camera without your knowledge.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information described
above for the following purposes:
•
To provide and operate the
calculator features of the App
•
To process scanned formulas
using AI recognition (images processed for formula detection only)
•
To improve App
functionality, fix bugs, and enhance user experience
•
To analyze usage patterns
in an anonymized and aggregated manner
•
To comply with applicable
laws and legal obligations

6. Data Storage & Security
All calculations and inputs
entered in the App are processed locally on your device and are not transmitted
to our servers. We do not maintain a database of your personal calculations.
For features requiring internet
connectivity (currency rates, AI formula scanning), only the minimum required
data is sent to third-party APIs. We use industry-standard security practices
to protect any data in transit.
While we strive to protect your
information, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We
cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Children's Privacy
The Smart Calculator Toolkit is
suitable for general audiences including students. We do not knowingly collect
personal information from children under the age of 13. If you are a parent or
guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information,
please contact us immediately and we will take steps to delete such
information.
8. Data Retention
Since we do not store personal
data on our servers, there is no retention period applicable to user
calculation data. Anonymized analytics data retained by third-party services
(e.g., Firebase) is governed by their respective retention policies.
9. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you
may have certain rights regarding your data:
•
Right to know what data is
collected about you
•
Right to request deletion
of your personal data
•
Right to opt out of
analytics data collection (via App settings or device settings)
•
Right to withdraw camera
permission at any time via Android device settings
To exercise any of these rights,
please contact us at the email address provided below.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy
from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal,
operational, or regulatory reasons. When we update the policy, we will revise
the Effective Date at the top of this document and publish the updated version
on the Google Play Store listing.
We encourage you to review this
Privacy Policy periodically. Continued use of the App after any changes
constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
