Search Engine ("we", "our", or "us") operates the search engine mobile application. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service and the choices you have associated with that data.

1. Information Collection and Use
We build our Service with a "Privacy First" philosophy. We do not require account registration to use the search engine.

Personal Data: While using our Service, we do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, or phone number unless you explicitly provide it to us via support channels.

This Usage Data may include information such as your device's Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, and other diagnostic data. This is used solely for service optimization and security monitoring.
2. Device Permissions
To provide specific features, the app requests the following permissions:

Camera: Used only when you use the "Upload" feature to take a photo or scan a document.

You can revoke these permissions at any time through your device settings, though some features may cease to function.

Our app integrates with mytangle.ca for:

Content delivery for Social Stories.
