Privacy Policy — ClipMode

App Name: ClipMode: Video Compressor & Editor

1. Introduction

ClipMode ("we", "our", or "the app") is a video compression and editing application that helps users compress videos, reduce file sizes, trim clips, customize output settings, and manage video-processing history.

We value your privacy and aim to minimize the collection of personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how information is accessed, processed, stored, and shared when you use ClipMode.

By using the app, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Videos and Media Files

ClipMode allows you to select videos from your device for compression, trimming, previewing, and exporting.

• Selected videos are processed on your device using the app's local media-processing functionality.

• We do not intentionally upload your video content to our own servers.

• We do not require you to create an account to use the core features.

• The app may temporarily create files needed for processing and exporting videos.

Your videos remain subject to the storage permissions and file-access choices you grant through Android.

2.2 Locally Stored Information

ClipMode may store the following information locally on your device:

• App preferences and theme settings.

• Compression settings and selected presets.

• Video-processing history and job status.

• File names, file sizes, processing dates, and output locations where required for app functionality.

• Temporary files generated during video processing.

This information is stored locally for app functionality and is not intentionally transmitted to our own servers.

Local data may be lost if you clear the app's data, uninstall the app, or remove associated files.

2.3 Advertising and Device Information

ClipMode may use Google AdMob to display advertisements.

If advertising is enabled in the released app, Google and its advertising partners may process certain information according to their applicable policies and the app's consent configuration. Depending on the implementation, this may include:

• Advertising identifiers and device identifiers.

• Device model, operating system, language, and general technical information.

• Advertising impressions, interactions, and diagnostic information.

• IP address and information used to estimate a general location.

• Consent preferences and information required to serve or measure advertisements.

The exact information processed depends on the advertising SDK, your device settings, applicable regional requirements, and the consent choices you make.

ClipMode does not intentionally send the contents of your personal videos to AdMob.

2.4 Diagnostics and Crash Reports

If diagnostic, analytics, or crash-reporting SDKs are included in a future or current release, those services may collect technical information necessary to identify crashes, performance problems, and errors.

Any such collection will depend on the SDKs actually integrated and their configuration. Please consult the applicable third-party privacy policies for further details.

3. How We Use Information

Information processed by ClipMode may be used to:

• Compress and trim videos.

• Apply supported video and audio settings.

• Save and export processed videos.

• Display processing progress and results.

• Maintain local settings and processing history.

• Display advertisements where enabled.

• Diagnose technical errors if diagnostic services are implemented.

• Protect the app and its users against abuse or technical problems.

We do not sell your personal information as part of our intended app functionality.

4. Local Video Processing and Storage

ClipMode is designed to perform its core video-processing operations on your Android device without requiring a cloud-processing account.

Your selected videos may be read, transformed, and written to temporary or output locations necessary to complete the requested operation.

The app may need access to a selected file or destination to perform the operation you request.

You remain responsible for deciding which videos to select, where to save exported videos, and whether to share them with other applications or people.

Never assume that a file has been deleted simply because you removed its entry from the app's history.

5. Sharing Information With Third Parties

ClipMode may rely on third-party services for limited functionality, including advertising.

Google AdMob

If integrated, Google AdMob may process information for advertising delivery, measurement, fraud prevention, and related services, subject to its applicable policies and settings.

Android Sharing Features

When you choose to share an exported video, Android's sharing functionality may transfer the selected file to the application or recipient you choose. The receiving application will handle that information under its own privacy policy.

We do not control how third-party applications process information after you choose to share it with them.

We do not intentionally sell your videos or provide your video content to advertisers.

6. Permissions

ClipMode requests access only as required for its implemented features.

Depending on the Android version and functionality available, permissions or system-mediated access may be used for:

• Selecting videos through Android's media picker.

• Reading selected media files.

• Saving or exporting processed videos.

• Sending notifications about processing jobs, where implemented and permitted.

The app should not request broad access to all files when the system media picker can provide the required functionality.

You can manage app permissions through your Android device settings. Revoking a permission may prevent the corresponding feature from working.

7. Data Retention and Deletion

ClipMode stores app settings and processing history locally where required.

You can delete available exported files through the app's supported controls or through your device's file-management features.

You may also clear locally stored app data or uninstall the app. These actions may remove local settings and history, but they do not necessarily delete exported files saved in other locations.

Information processed by third-party advertising services is subject to their own retention and deletion practices.

ClipMode does not currently provide a separate online user account or server-based account deletion process as part of its intended core functionality.

8. Children's Privacy

ClipMode is not designed to knowingly collect personal information directly from children through a user account.

The app's advertising configuration and audience settings should be reviewed to ensure they are appropriate for the intended audience and comply with applicable laws and Google Play requirements.

If you believe that personal information has been collected inappropriately through the app, contact us using the details provided below.

9. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the app's local data and handle media files appropriately.

However, no application, device, or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You should keep your device updated, use appropriate device security, and exercise caution when sharing personal videos.

10. Your Privacy Choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

You can:

• Control app permissions through Android settings.

• Delete locally stored app data where supported.

• Manage advertising personalization through the settings available on your device or through Google's services.

• Make applicable privacy requests to third-party service providers.

• Contact us with questions about this Privacy Policy.

Where required, the app will provide appropriate consent choices for advertising and other relevant data processing.

11. International Data Processing

Third-party services, including advertising providers, may process information in countries other than your country of residence.

Such processing is governed by the applicable provider's policies and the legal requirements relevant to your location.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when app features, third-party services, applicable laws, or data-handling practices change.

The updated version will be published at the designated Privacy Policy URL, together with a revised effective date where appropriate.

You should review this policy periodically for updates.

14. Summary

ClipMode is designed to process videos locally on your device, minimize unnecessary data collection, and give you control over your video files.

Advertising and any additional third-party services may process certain technical information when those services are enabled. Please review the applicable third-party policies for details.

This Privacy Policy should be read together with the final app implementation and the applicable Google Play disclosures.
