We do not collect, store, or transmit:
All data stored by the App is used solely to provide and improve the in-app experience:
Origami Studio does not integrate any third-party services that collect user data, including:
The App is distributed through Google Play Store. Google may collect device and usage data according to Google's Privacy Policy. This is outside our control and we do not access or use any data Google may collect.
We do not share any user data with third parties. The only exception is when you actively use the share function:
All data stored by the App lives on your device only. You can delete it at any time:
Since we do not collect or store any data on our servers, there is no server-side data to delete. Data deletion on your device is immediate and permanent.
We take reasonable measures to protect your data:
Origami Studio is a family-friendly origami tutorial app suitable for all ages, including children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since the App does not collect any personal data at all — no names, emails, identifiers, or location — it is inherently safe for children to use.
We do not require any registration, login, or personal information to use the App.
The App requests the following Android permissions:
| Permission | Why It's Needed | Personal Data Accessed? |
|---|---|---|
INTERNET |
To download tutorial images and data from our content server | No |
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE |
To check if the device has internet connectivity before loading content | No |
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE(Android 4.4–5.1 only) |
To save shared images to a temporary cache for the share function on older Android versions | No — only writes the app's own temporary image file |
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE(Android 6–9 only) |
Required by Android system to access the temp share file on older versions | No — only reads the app's own cached file |
On Android 10 (API 29) and above, the App uses scoped storage and does not request external storage permissions.
Origami Studio is available worldwide. The App stores data locally on your device regardless of your location. No data is transferred across borders since no data leaves your device. If you are in a jurisdiction with specific data protection laws (such as the EU's GDPR), rest assured that we do not collect or process any personal data that would fall under those regulations.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will notify you through the App or by updating the policy on this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
The "Effective Date" at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last updated.
