Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy is provided in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy and privacy-related concerns. This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time for any reason; each version will apply to information collected while it was in place. You are advised to consult this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes.

Information we may collect

Personal Information: In general, you can use our app and website without providing personal details or creating an account. We do not require you to sign up or log in to access core features. We do not collect personal information such as your name, address, phone number, email, or precise location unless you voluntarily provide it (for example, if you contact us for support or provide information in a user registration on our site). Any personal information you choose to give us (such as an email inquiry) will only be used for the purpose for which you provided it.

Content You Create: Our service allows you to import videos and audio to create edited videos. We do not share your video or audio files with others. For editing, any files you upload are used temporarily for processing and are deleted shortly after processing is complete. We do not retain your personal media files after providing the service.

Usage and Device Data: When you use our app or website, we automatically collect certain technical information to understand and improve our services. This includes but not limited to:

• Device identifiers : Unique ID for your smartphone or browser, and device characteristics (model, OS version).
• Usage data : How you interact with the app (features used, session duration, interactions) and with the website (pages visited, clicks).
• Advertising data : Interactions with ads in the app.
• Crash and diagnostics data : Reports sent when the app crashes or encounters errors.
• Log information : IP address, browser type, and timestamp of website access.

This information is non-personal and not directly linked to your identity and we do not associate these analytics and log data with your personal details.

A Special Note About Children
Children are not eligible to use our services and we ask that minors do not submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor, you can use this service only in conjunction with your parents or guardians. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal identifiable Information, we will delete such information from our files. We use your email address and, in rare situations your mailing address or phone number, to contact you regarding administrative notices from time to time.

How we use your information

Use of the collected information includes but not limited to:

• To Provide and Maintain the Service : We process your videos and music to deliver the core functionality of the app (adding audio to video). We use device and usage data to ensure the app and website function correctly on different devices and browsers..
• To Improve Our Products : Usage and crash data are used for troubleshooting, analyzing performance, and introducing new features. This helps us refine the user experience and fix issues quickly.
• Customer Support : If you contact us with a question or problem, we will use your contact information and details of your request to assist you. We may ask for additional information (like screenshots or device information) to resolve technical issues.
• Personalization : We may use usage data to personalize content or features for you. For example, we might remember your last used settings or provide tutorials based on your activity.
• Advertising : To support our free services, we show ads in the app. The data collected (like device identifiers and ad interactions) is used to ensure that you receive relevant ads and to avoid showing the same ad too many times.
• Compliance and Protection : We may use or disclose information to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our Terms of Use, or protect our rights, property, and safety or that of our users or others (For example, in response to lawful requests by public authorities or to prevent fraud or other illegal activities).

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies: Our website uses "cookies" and similar technologies to collect non-personal data and enhance your experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Use of "cookies" includes but not limited to

• Remember your preferences (e.g., language selection).
• Understand how our website is used (via analytics) so we can improve its design and functionality.
• Facilitate any sign-in or account features (if applicable in the future).

We use both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain for a set period or until you delete them). Cookies do not harm your device. You can control or disable cookies in your browser settings. However, note that some website features might not function properly without cookies. By using our site without disabling cookies, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy.

In-App Trackers: Our mobile apps may use mobile identifiers and software development kits (SDKs) for similar purposes (e.g., Google’s Advertising ID on Android or Apple’s Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) on iOS) to help measure ad performance and usage. These identifiers can be reset in your device settings. We honor each platform’s requirements.

Analytics Services: We use third-party analytics tools (which may use cookies or SDKs) to collectusage statistics of our app and website. For instance, we may use Google Analytics for Firebase to understand app engagement and Firebase Crashlytics for crash reporting. These tools gather information such as device type and app version, which helps us improve stability and features.

Advertising and Third-Party Partners

We work with third-party companies to serve ads and analyze app usage. These partners may collect information from our app or website to provide their services, under strict confidentiality and security obligations. The third-party services we use include:

• AdMob (Google) - for in-app advertising. AdMob may use device identifiers and other data to show you relevant ads. See Google’s AdMob & Ads Privacy for more info.
• Google Analytics for Firebase – for aggregate analytics on app usage. Firebase may collect app instance IDs, events (like screens viewed), and crash data. See Firebase’s Privacy and Security for details.
• Firebase Crashlytics – for crash reporting and diagnostics (part of Firebase) to help us fix bugs quickly.
• Facebook SDK – (If applicable) for analytics or login. The Facebook SDK may collect install data or event data from the app. (At present, our app does not integrate Facebook login or social features; if we add such features, we will update this policy accordingly.)

These third parties may receive non-personally identifiable information about your device or usage. No directly identifying personal information (like your name or contact info) is shared with these partners. We do not allow third parties to collect sensitive personal data through our app. We ensure any data practices by third parties are compatible with our privacy commitments. For more details, please review the privacy policies of those services. (Links: Google Privacy Policy, Firebase Privacy information, Facebook Data Policy.)

Advertising Choices: You can control personalized ads in several ways. On Android, you can opt out of personalized ads in Google settings. On iOS, you can deny tracking permission when prompted or disable ad personalization in your privacy settings. You may still see ads, but they may be less relevant. For website cookies related to ads, you can also use browser-based ad/content blockers or adjust cookie settings.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

No Sale of Personal Data: We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We also do not share personal data with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes. If this policy ever changes in the future, we will provide advance notice and the opportunity to opt-out of such data sharing.

Service Providers: We may share information with trusted third-party service providers who perform functions on our behalf. For example, this includes cloud service providers (for website hosting), analytics providers, and customer support tools. They will only get the information necessary to deliver their service, and they are contractually obligated to protect it and use it solely for the purposes we specify.

Legal Compliance: We may disclose information about you if required to do so by law or legal process, or if we have a good-faith belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to:
1. Comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal requests, or governmental orders.
2. Enforce our Terms of Use or other agreements, and investigate potential violations.
3. Detect, prevent, or address fraud, security, or technical issues.
4. Protect the rights, property, or safety of our users, the public, or our company.
5. If we need to disclose your data for any of the above reasons, we will, when possible and legally permissible, inform you about the request.

Business Transfers: If our company is involved in a merger, acquisition, asset sale, bankruptcy, or other transaction, your information may be transferred as part of that deal. We will ensure the new owner honors the commitments we have made in this Privacy Policy. If any planned transfer would result in a material change in how your data is used, we will give you an opportunity to opt out or delete your data before it happens.

Aggregated Data: We may share aggregated or anonymized information (which cannot be used to identify you) publicly and with partners – for example, publishing trends about app usage or sharing statistics with a business partner. For instance, we might disclose "X number of videos were created using our app this month," without revealing any personal data.

Your Privacy Rights

Access Correction and Deletion: You have certain rights over your data.

1. You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you and to ask that we correct any inaccuracies.
2. You also have the right to request deletion of your personal data. Because we generally do not collect personal identifiers unless you contact us, this typically would apply to data like an email you sent us or any profile information you provided.
3. To exercise your rights, please contact us at slideshow.how@gmail.com with "Privacy Request" in the subject.

Data Security and Retention

Security Measures: We take reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit (e.g., our website is served over HTTPS), secure storage practices, and limiting access to personal data only to those in our team or service providers who need it to perform their duties. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, please understand that there is no "perfect security measure" on the Internet. We will do our best to prevent your information from being leaked, damaged or lost according to existing technology and provide reasonable security guarantees.

Data Retention: We retain the information we collect for as long as needed to provide our services and for the purposes described in this policy. For example, analytics data may be retained indefinitely in aggregate form to observe long-term trends, but personal correspondence (like a support email you send) will be retained only as long as necessary to address your inquiry and for a short period thereafter in case of follow-up, unless longer retention is required by law. If you request deletion of your personal data, we will delete or anonymize the data unless we are legally allowed or required to keep it (for example, for financial record-keeping, legal claims, or safety enforcement).

International Data Transfers: Your data may be transferred to and processed in the U.S. or other countries where our service providers operate. These countries may have data protection laws that are different from those in your country. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers, for example by relying on standard contractual clauses or other legally approved mechanisms to protect your data. By using our services, you acknowledge this transfer of your data.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update or revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. If we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on our website. For significant changes, we may also provide a notice within the app or via email (if you have provided one) to notify you. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information. Your continued use of the app or our services after any changes to this Policy will signify your acceptance of the updated terms.
