Privacy and data protection

User privacy is one of our highest priorities. Our app:

•protects personal information with sensitive-data filters
•uses the MediaProjection API safely
•lets you work entirely offline by choosing the ML Kit engine, if privacy is your priority
Advertising services and data collection

The Google AdMob advertising platform is used so the app can be offered free of charge. AdMob collects certain technical data (Advertising ID, IP address, device information) in order to serve ads.

Important: your translations and personal content are never shared with AdMob. Only technical data for serving ads is collected.

Pro membership: when you buy a Pro membership, ads are removed entirely and AdMob is not active.

For details, please read our Privacy Policy.

Use of the Accessibility Service
Important: the Chat Mode permission

Chat Mode uses the Android Accessibility Service (AccessibilityService) API.

Why the Accessibility Service is used

Screen Translate's Chat Mode uses the Accessibility Service for the following purposes:

•to read the text content in messaging apps (WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram and so on)
•to translate incoming and outgoing messages in real time
•to detect the keyboard area and exclude it from the translation area
Our data protection commitments

For data accessed through the Accessibility Service, we make the following commitments:

✕Message contents are never recorded or stored
✕Personal data is never shared with third parties (for advertising or anything else)
•Translated text is processed according to the engine you chose:
✓text is read locally with ML Kit, or in the cloud with Cloud Vision
✓data is deleted immediately after processing

Privacy tip: for maximum privacy, select the ML Kit (Offline) engine in the settings. That way no data leaves your device at all.

Other modes

Default Mode, Touch Mode, Game Mode and Social Media Mode do not use the Accessibility Service. These modes use only the MediaProjection (screen capture) API.

User control

You can disable the Accessibility Service permission at any time from Android Settings > Accessibility. Chat Mode will then stop working, but the other modes can be used as normal.
