Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 1, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how AI Flash Read handles information when you use the iOS app. AI Flash Read is designed to convert images into text and help you read that text using an RSVP speed reader.

Information We Collect

We do not collect, sell, rent, or share personal information. AI Flash Read does not require a user account and does not include advertising SDKs, third-party analytics SDKs, or tracking technologies.

Photos and scans Used only when you choose images, take a photo, or scan pages. They are processed on device for OCR.
Extracted text Created locally from your selected images and shown in the app for review and speed reading.
OCR review notes Generated locally to help identify low-confidence or suspicious OCR results.
Saved sessions Stored locally on your device and may include cleaned text, reading progress, page count, settings, and OCR review metadata.

How the App Uses Permissions

  • Camera: used when you take a new photo or scan pages for OCR.
  • Photo Library: used only to access images you select for OCR.

On-Device OCR and Processing

AI Flash Read uses Apple system frameworks, including Vision and VisionKit, to recognize text from images. OCR preprocessing, text cleanup, review notes, and speed-reading behavior run locally on your device.

Saved Reading Sessions

If you save a reading session, the app stores that session locally. A saved session can include cleaned text, current word position, speed settings, words per flash, punctuation pause, word size, pivot position, page count, and OCR review metadata. Saved sessions can be deleted in the app.

Data Sharing

We do not receive your photos, extracted text, saved sessions, or reading activity. The app does not upload this content to a developer-operated server. If you use Apple features such as iCloud device backup, Apple may handle app data according to your device and iCloud settings.

Children's Privacy

AI Flash Read does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the app does not collect personal information from users, no children's personal information is collected by us.

Security

Your app content is stored locally using normal iOS app storage. You are responsible for protecting access to your device with iOS security features such as a passcode, Face ID, Touch ID, and device backups.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated if the app's data practices change. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
