1. Introduction
Welcome to AR 3D | Mengenal Metamorphosis (package: com.ptikarmetamorphosis), developed by PTIK Devs ("we", "us", or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and providing a safe, educational, and enriching experience for all users, students, and educators.
This Privacy Policy governs your use of our mobile application and transparently explains how camera permissions, device features, and privacy standards are managed in full compliance with Google Play Developer Policies.
2. Camera Access & Augmented Reality (Vuforia Engine)
To deliver interactive 3D learning experiences of biological metamorphosis (such as butterflies, caterpillars, cocoons, and eggs), our application requests access to your device's physical camera (android.permission.CAMERA).
How Camera Data is Handled:
- Purpose: The camera feed is used exclusively to recognize predefined physical flashcards/markers and render 3D educational models directly onto your display.
- Local Volatile Processing: All video frames captured through the camera are processed in real-time in the device's volatile memory (RAM).
- Zero Storage: We do NOT record, take photos, capture snapshots, or save any images or video clips from your camera.
- Zero Cloud Transmission: Camera images and video streams are never transmitted over the Internet, uploaded to remote cloud servers, or shared with any third party.
- No Facial or Biometric Tracking: The application does not scan, analyze, or collect facial geometry, biometric information, or identifiable environment data.
3. Information Collection and Use
We adhere to a strict Zero Data Collection policy:
- No Personal Identifiable Information (PII): We do not require account registration, login, or personal profiles. We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or mailing addresses.
- No Location Data: We do not access, track, or record GPS or network-based geographic location.
- No Device Identifiers: We do not harvest IMEI, MAC addresses, Android Advertising ID (AAID), or hardware serial numbers.
- Offline Functionality: The core educational AR experience runs entirely offline and does not require an active internet connection to function.
4. Children’s Privacy & Families Policy Compliance (COPPA)
Because AR 3D | Mengenal Metamorphosis is an educational science application designed for students and learners of all ages, protecting children's digital safety is our highest priority.
