USAGE TERMS AND PRIVACY POLICY (Fast Distance Measure)
Last Updated: September 28, 2026
Welcome to Fast Distance Measure (hereinafter referred to as "this App"). By installing and using this App, you agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy outlined below. We
are committed to protecting your privacy while providing a fast, clean, and intuitive distance measurement experience.
Information Collection & General Principles
We believe your measurement data, local preferences, and application settings belong to you alone.
No Personal Data Collection: This App does not collect, harvest, or request any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as your name, email address, phone number, contacts,
or location data.
Local-First Storage & Processing: All measurement results, calibration settings, and user preferences are created, saved, and processed locally on your device. We do not upload
your measurement data or preferences to our servers.
Data Processing & Extreme Local Privacy
This App is designed with a strict "local-only" architecture for personalization and utility:
Zero Cloud Exposure: Measurement results, camera preview data, sensor readings, and display preferences operate completely within the memory and local storage of your device.
No Measurement Data Transmission: All distance measurement calculations are conducted strictly on-device using your camera and device sensors. We do not transmit, record, or store
any information about your measurements on external servers.
Data Usage & Third-Party Services
To support ongoing app development, maintenance, and stability, this App integrates with a limited number of industry-standard third-party services. These services may collect
anonymous or pseudonymous identifiers:
Advertising (Google AdMob)
This App displays advertisements powered by Google AdMob.
- Data Collected: AdMob may collect and use pseudonymous device identifiers (such as the Advertising ID) to display relevant or personalized advertisements.
- Purpose: To support the continuous development and free distribution of the app.
- Privacy Policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/
Analytics, Crashlytics & Remote Config (Google Firebase)
We use Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics, and Firebase Remote Config to understand user interaction, troubleshoot crashes, and update app settings:
- Data Collected: Anonymous usage statistics (e.g., app sessions, feature triggers, or screen views) and crash stack traces.
- No Private Data Leaked: No measurement data, camera images, or sensitive user configurations are ever included in the logs or analytics.
- Purpose: To debug system crashes, optimize app performance, and enhance the overall user experience.
- Privacy Policy: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
Required Device Permissions & Access
To provide reliable distance measurement operations, this App requests only the necessary permissions:
Camera (CAMERA): Required to capture real-time camera preview for distance measurement functionality. Camera images are processed entirely on-device and are never stored,
transmitted, or shared externally.
Motion Sensors (Accelerometer): Required to detect device tilt angle, which is essential for calculating distances. Sensor data is processed in real-time on-device and is never
recorded or transmitted.
Internet & Network Access (INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE): Required for displaying advertisements (Google AdMob), checking remote config settings (Firebase Remote Config), and
transmitting anonymous crash/analytics logs.
No Other Sensitive Permissions Required: This App does not request or require access to your microphone, physical GPS location, photos library, contacts, storage, or phone logs.
Data Security
We implement strict physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards:
Secure Communication: All communication with Firebase and AdMob is encrypted via secure HTTPS protocols.
No Server-Side Databases: Since we do not maintain cloud storage databases of your measurement data or user preferences, your data is completely safe from server-side leaks and
hacking attempts.
Camera Data Safety: Camera preview frames are used solely for real-time distance calculation and are never saved to disk or transmitted to any server.
User Rights & Privacy Controls
You have full control over your privacy and device permissions:
Camera Permission: You can revoke camera access at any time through your device's system settings. Without camera permission, the app will be unable to perform distance
measurements.
Reset Ad Identifier: You can opt-out of personalized ads or reset your Advertising ID via your device's native Google account settings.
Clear App Cache & Data: You can delete all local preferences and cached app state through your system's App Settings.
Acceptance of Terms
By downloading or using this App, you agree to comply with and be bound by these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
User License & Content Ownership
100% User Ownership: You retain full ownership of any measurement results or settings created within this App.
Permitted Use: You are granted a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to use the app for distance measurement purposes. You may not copy, reverse-engineer, modify, or
redistribute any part of our app code or assets.
Disclaimer of Warranties & Limitation of Liability
"As-Is" Service: This App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.
Measurement Disclaimer: Distance measurements provided by this App are estimates based on camera and sensor data. Results may vary depending on device hardware, lighting
conditions, surface characteristics, and calibration accuracy. This App should not be used as a substitute for professional measuring tools in applications where precision is
critical.
No Liability for Inaccuracy: We are not liable for any issues, damages, or losses arising from inaccurate measurements or reliance on measurement results provided by this App.
Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. When we make updates, we will post the revised version with an updated "Last Updated" date at the top. Your continued use of
the app after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the new terms.
