Privacy Policy for GCamatorLab
Last Updated: June 25, 2026
Welcome to GCamatorLab ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application GCamatorLab (the "Application").
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use the Application.
1. Information We Collect
To provide our camera compatibility testing and custom Google Camera (GCam) port recommendation services, we collect certain information from your device.
A. Device Information
We query and collect device-specific details via standard Android system APIs, including:
- Device Brand & Model: (e.g., Google Pixel, Samsung Galaxy, etc.) to match the correct GCam port.
- Android OS Version & API Level: To ensure compatibility with GCam configurations.
- Camera Hardware & Sensor Capabilities: Information about your camera sensors (resolution, focal length, Camera2 API support level) to verify compatibility.
- Unique Device Identifier (Android ID): A unique, non-resettable identifier (
Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID) used solely to associate your compatibility reports and session information with your specific device, preventing duplicate submissions.
B. User-Submitted Feedback and Logs
- Crash Logs: If a downloaded GCam port crashes on your device, you have the option to upload crash log files (e.g.,
crash.log) to help us diagnose issues.
- User Comments: Any optional feedback, comments, or details you submit regarding whether a specific GCam port worked on your device.
C. Internet and Notifications
- Network Permissions: The Application requires internet access to connect to our secure API servers (
https://gcamatorlabapi.gtgroup.dev) to check for updates and upload session/crash reports.
- Notification Permissions: We request permission to send notifications to remind you to provide feedback on whether a downloaded GCam port worked correctly on your device.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
- To Analyze Compatibility: To determine whether your device supports the advanced Camera2 API features required for Google Camera ports.
- To Recommend GCam Ports: To query our database and serve the exact, working GCam port configurations suitable for your device's brand, model, and camera sensors.
- To Diagnose and Resolve Crashes: To analyze user-submitted crash logs and update or patch configurations to make GCam ports more stable.
- To Send Notifications: To prompt feedback reminders regarding port usability (only with your explicit permission).
3. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We respect your privacy and do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may disclose information only in the following scenarios:
- Service Providers: We may share information with host and infrastructure providers hosting our APIs and databases (
gcamatorlabapi.gtgroup.dev).
- Legal Obligations: We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or to protect the safety, rights, and property of our users or the public.
4. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. All data transmitted between the Application and our API servers is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL/TLS) technology.
5. Your Rights and Choices
- Notification Settings: You can opt-out of receiving push notifications at any time through your device's system settings.
- Data Access and Deletion: Since we associate session logs using the device-specific Android ID, you may contact us to request the deletion of any submitted logs associated with your device.
6. Children's Privacy
Our Application is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will immediately delete this data from our servers.
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy.
