The app collects nothing

DafScan is a free document scanner for iPhone and Android. It has no account, no ads and no in-app purchases.

• The app makes no network requests of its own.
• There is no analytics, no crash reporting and no tracking.
• Text recognition (OCR), including Hebrew, runs on your phone.

On Android, the camera scanner is Google’s ML Kit document scanner, which is part of Google Play services. Google may download or update it, and may collect usage and performance information about it under its own terms and privacy policy. Your scans are processed on your phone and are not sent to Google by DafScan.

Because nothing is sent to us, we cannot see, recover or restore your scans.

What stays on your phone

DafScan stores these only in its own storage on your phone:

• The pages you scan.
• The original photo of each page. You can turn this off with “Keep photos” in Settings.
• The text read from your pages.

You can delete a scan in the app at any time. Deleting the app deletes all your scans. We have no copy to bring back.

When a scan leaves your phone

A scan leaves your phone only when you share it or save it to Files, using your phone’s share sheet. The app or service you pick then handles the file under its own terms and privacy policy.

Permissions

• Camera: to scan pages.
• Photos: to import the pictures you pick. DafScan only uses the pictures you choose.

You can change these permissions at any time in your phone’s settings.

Phone backups

If backups are turned on in your phone’s settings, your phone may include DafScan’s data in its iCloud or Google backup. That is your operating system’s backup, run by Apple or Google under your account and their policies. It is not a DafScan service, and we cannot access it.

The website

dafscan.com is hosted on Vercel. To count visits, it uses Vercel Web Analytics. It sets no cookies and records page views without identifying you: for example the page, the referring site, the country, and the browser, operating system and device type. We see only totals.

The website sets no advertising cookies and shows no ads.

If you email us

If you write to support@dafscan.com, we use your email address and message only to reply to you. We do not share them or use them for marketing.

Children

DafScan is not directed at children under 13. The app collects nothing from anyone, including children.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, laws such as the EU and UK GDPR and Israel’s Privacy Protection Law give you the right to ask what personal data we hold about you, and to have it corrected or deleted. The app holds nothing about you on our side, so in practice this applies only to emails you sent us. Write to support@dafscan.com and we will answer.

You can also complain to the data protection authority where you live.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we will post the new version on this page with a new effective date. See also the terms of use.
