1. Introduction
PSL Camera is an industrial configuration and monitoring application designed to support the setup of enterprise camera devices in private operational environments, including mining and industrial facilities.
This Privacy Policy explains what data the App accesses, how it is used, and the limited circumstances under which information may be processed.
We are committed to transparency, data minimization, and protecting user privacy.
2. Data Collection and Use
2.1 No Personal User Data
The App does not collect or require:
- User accounts or authentication
- Names, email addresses, or phone numbers
- Payment or financial information
- Photos, videos, or media from the mobile device
The App is intended for authorized personnel using enterprise-managed devices.
2.2 Device Configuration and Monitoring
The App is used to:
- Connect to an industrial camera via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
- Transmit network configuration parameters (e.g., Wi-Fi credentials) directly to the device
- Display real-time device status messages and logs
All configuration communication occurs locally between the phone and the industrial device.
The App does not store Wi-Fi credentials, images, or device logs beyond the active session.
3. Analytics and App Performance
Firebase Analytics
The App uses Google Firebase Analytics to improve functionality, stability, and performance.
Firebase Analytics may automatically collect:
- Device information (model, OS version, screen resolution)
- App usage data (screens viewed, features accessed)
- Crash and diagnostic information
- Approximate location (country/region derived from IP address)
- Anonymous identifiers for analytics purposes
Important: Firebase Analytics does not access camera images, Wi-Fi credentials, or Bluetooth communication content.

4. Permissions
The App requests only the permissions necessary for industrial configuration features:
Bluetooth Permissions
Used to discover and connect to the camera device:
- BLUETOOTH_SCAN (Android 12+)
- BLUETOOTH_CONNECT (Android 12+)
- Legacy Bluetooth permissions (Android 11 and below)
Bluetooth access is not used for advertising, tracking, or profiling.
Wi-Fi Scanning Permissions
Used to display nearby Wi-Fi network names (SSIDs) for device setup:
- ACCESS_WIFI_STATE
- CHANGE_WIFI_STATE (to trigger scans where required)
The App does not connect the phone to Wi-Fi networks automatically.
Location Permission Requirement
Android requires location-related permission to access Wi-Fi scan results:
- ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
The App does not determine, collect, or store the user’s physical location. This permission is used only to list nearby Wi-Fi networks for configuration.
5. Data Sharing
The App does not sell or share personal data with third parties.
No advertising SDKs are included. The only third-party service used is Firebase Analytics for app performance monitoring.
6. Data Retention
- Configuration data is retained only during active setup sessions
- Wi-Fi scan results may be cached temporarily for user convenience
- Analytics data is retained according to Firebase retention policies
Users may request deletion of analytics data by contacting us.
7. Children’s Privacy
The App is not intended for children under 18 and is designed exclusively for enterprise and industrial use.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Updates will be published at the same URL, and the “Last Updated” date will be revised accordingly.

RESTRICTED ACCESS
Industrial Camera Device Hardware Required
This app is an enterprise configuration tool designed to connect via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to a dedicated industrial camera device made by us. The app does not require user accounts or login credentials. Core functionality (device discovery, configuration, and monitoring) requires access to the companion hardware, which is not publicly available. Reviewers can still access the full UI, navigation, and permission flows without restrictions.
