Camera Privacy Policy

1. Purpose of Camera Access

This application requires access to your device's camera to scan QR codes for scorecard identification during golf competitions. The camera is used exclusively for reading QR codes displayed on physical scorecards.

2. How We Use Camera Access

When you use the QR code scanning feature:

• The camera activates only when you explicitly open the QR scanner
• Camera feed is processed locally on your device in real-time
• No images or video are stored, saved, or transmitted
• Only the decoded QR code text is used to retrieve your scorecard information
• Camera access is immediately terminated when you close the scanner

3. Data Privacy

We respect your privacy:

• No camera footage is recorded or stored
• No images are captured or saved to your device
• Camera data never leaves your device
• We do not have access to your camera feed
• Only the QR code content (text string) is sent to our servers to fetch your scorecard

4. Permissions

Camera permission is requested only when you choose to use the QR scanner feature. You can:

• Grant permission to enable QR code scanning
• Deny permission, in which case the QR scanner will not function
• Change camera permissions anytime in your device settings

5. Security

Your camera access is protected by:

• Operating system-level permission controls
• No background camera access - camera only works when the scanner is active
• Automatic camera shutdown when you navigate away from the scanner

6. Third-Party Services

We do not share camera access or any camera-related data with third parties. The QR code scanning functionality is handled entirely within our application.

7. Your Rights

You have full control over camera access:

• You can revoke camera permission at any time through your device settings
• Revoking permission will disable the QR scanner feature
• You can continue using all other features of the app without camera access
