Privacy Policy - Flashlight

Information we collect

• Device information, such as device model, operating system version, language, time zone, and app version.
• Feature usage data related to flashlight modes, including front light mode, back torch mode, brightness or strobe settings, session length, and interaction patterns used to improve reliability and usability.
• Advertising identifiers, network information, and diagnostics data used for ad delivery, campaign measurement, crash analysis, and abuse prevention.
• Basic technical logs generated automatically by our systems to monitor reliability, troubleshoot issues, and maintain service quality.
• Camera and flashlight hardware access only as needed to operate the front light and back torch features on your device. Flashlight does not use the camera to record, store, or upload photos or videos.

How we use information

• To operate, maintain, and improve app performance, stability, and user experience across devices and software versions.
• To provide and optimize front and back flashlight modes, including brightness controls, strobe or SOS patterns, and related utility features.
• To support advertising operations, campaign effectiveness analysis, fraud detection, and service security monitoring.
• To investigate technical incidents, resolve support requests, and enforce policies related to misuse and unauthorized activity.

Permissions

Flashlight may request permission to access the camera or flashlight hardware so the app can turn on the rear LED torch and deliver front-facing screen light modes. These permissions are used only to provide the utility features you choose to use. You can revoke permissions at any time through your device settings, though some flashlight modes may stop working without them.

Advertising and third-party services

Flashlight may use third-party services such as ad networks, analytics tools, and cloud providers. These partners may collect or process data according to their own privacy terms. We recommend reviewing their policies to understand how data is handled outside of our direct control.

Legal bases and consent

Where applicable, we process information based on legitimate interests, contractual necessity, legal obligations, or your consent. If consent is required by your region, you may be presented with controls to manage advertising or analytics preferences.

Data retention and security

We retain data only as long as necessary for operational, legal, and security purposes. Retention periods may vary based on data type, technical needs, and compliance requirements. We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect information against unauthorized access, misuse, or accidental loss.

International data transfers

Some service providers may process data on servers located in countries other than your own. By using the app, you acknowledge that information may be transferred and processed internationally, subject to applicable safeguards required by law.

Your rights and choices

• You may be able to limit ad tracking through your device settings.
• You can manage or revoke camera and flashlight-related permissions in your device settings.
• You can stop all information collection by uninstalling the app.
• Where permitted by law, you may request access, correction, or deletion of certain data by contacting us.
• If you disagree with policy changes, you should discontinue app use and remove the app from your device.

Children's privacy

Flashlight is designed as a utility for users of all ages. We aim to keep the experience appropriate for a broad audience. If you are a parent or guardian and have questions about your child's use of the app, please contact us and we will assist you.

Policy updates

We may revise this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect legal, technical, or operational changes. Updated versions become effective when published on this page. Continued use of the app after publication means you acknowledge and accept the updated policy.
