Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Commitment

At 21 Age Pro, your privacy is not just important to us—it's fundamental to how our app works. We've designed 21 Age Pro from the ground up to protect your privacy and the privacy of everyone whose ID you scan.

The Simple Truth: We Don't Collect Your Data

21 Age Pro operates on a simple principle: What happens on your device, stays on your device.

What We DON'T Do

  • No Image Storage - Photos of IDs are never saved to your device or transmitted anywhere

  • No Personal Data Collection - We don't collect names, addresses, birthdates, or any personal information from scanned IDs

  • No Cloud Upload - Nothing from your scans ever leaves your device

  • No User Accounts - No sign-ups, logins, or profile creation required

  • No Tracking - We don't track your usage patterns or scanning behavior

  • No Third-Party Sharing - There's nothing to share because we don't collect anything

  • No Analytics - We don't use analytics services that could compromise your privacy

How 21 Age Pro Works Privately

  1. Camera Access - The app accesses your camera only when you're actively scanning

  2. On-Device Processing - ID barcodes are decoded entirely on your iPhone/iPad

  3. Instant Results - Age verification happens locally and displays immediately

  4. Immediate Deletion - Camera images are discarded immediately after processing

  5. No Network Required - The app works completely offline

Information We Process (But Don't Store)

When you scan an ID with 21 Age Pro, the app temporarily processes:

  • The PDF417 barcode data from driver's licenses

  • Birthdate information (to calculate age)

  • Expiration date (to verify ID validity)

Important: This information is processed in your device's memory only and is immediately discarded after displaying the age verification result.

App Permissions

21 Age Pro requests minimal permissions:

Camera Permission

  • Purpose: To scan ID barcodes

  • Scope: Only when actively using the scanning feature

  • Storage: No images are saved or transmitted

No Other Permissions Required

  • No location access

  • No contacts access

  • No microphone access

  • No photo library access

  • No network access required

Technical Privacy Measures

On-Device Processing

  • All barcode decoding happens using iOS's native Vision framework

  • No external APIs or cloud services are used for ID processing

  • Processing occurs in isolated memory that's automatically cleared

Data Minimization

  • We only process the minimum data necessary for age verification

  • No personal identifiers are extracted or stored

  • No facial recognition or biometric data is used

Secure Design

  • App uses iOS security sandbox

  • No background processing of personal data

  • No caching of sensitive information

Third-Party Services

21 Age Pro is designed to operate independently without third-party services that could compromise privacy:

  • No Analytics Platforms (Google Analytics, Facebook Analytics, etc.)

  • No Advertising Networks

  • No Cloud Storage Services

  • No External APIs for ID Processing

The only external connection is to the App Store for app updates, which is handled by iOS and subject to Apple's privacy policy.

Children's Privacy

21 Age Pro does not knowingly collect, store, or process personal information from anyone under 13 years of age. Since the app processes but doesn't store any personal information, it's inherently compliant with children's privacy protection requirements.

Your Rights and Control

Complete Control

  • You can revoke camera permission at any time in iOS Settings

  • You can delete the app to remove all associated data (though no personal data is stored)

  • You have full control over when and how to use the scanning feature

No Data Subject Rights Needed

Since 21 Age Pro doesn't collect or store personal data, traditional data subject rights (access, correction, deletion, portability) are not applicable—there's simply no data to manage.

Business Use and Employee Privacy

If you're using 21 Age Pro for business purposes:

  • Employee Training: Inform staff that the app doesn't store customer information

  • Customer Confidence: You can assure customers their information isn't collected

  • Compliance: The app's design supports privacy compliance across industries

  • Audit Trail: No personal data means no privacy audit concerns

International Privacy Compliance

21 Age Pro's privacy-by-design approach supports compliance with major privacy regulations:

  • GDPR (European Union): No personal data processing means minimal compliance obligations

  • CCPA (California): No sale or sharing of personal information because none is collected

  • PIPEDA (Canada): Minimal data processing aligns with privacy minimization principles

  • HIPAA (Healthcare): No PHI storage or transmission in healthcare settings

Security

While we don't store personal data, we maintain security best practices:

  • Regular security updates through the App Store

  • iOS security sandbox protection

  • Secure coding practices

  • No network vulnerabilities (offline operation)
