SmoothCue Teleprompter — Privacy Policy

Effective date: 3 September 2026
Developer: 23rd Pair Lab Limited
Contact: info@23rdpairlab.com

SmoothCue Teleprompter (“the app”) is a teleprompter and personal recording tool for Android. This policy describes what the app does and does not do with information on your device. It reflects the app as shipped. If a future version introduces any data collection, this policy and the Google Play Data safety declaration will be updated before that version is released.

Short version

The app has no user accounts and no servers of its own.
Your scripts, settings, and recordings stay on your device unless you choose to share or export them.
The app contains no advertising, analytics, tracking, or crash-reporting software.
The app does not transmit your scripts or recordings anywhere. The shipped build has the Android INTERNET permission removed, so it cannot make network connections.

Information handled on your device

Data	Where it lives	Leaves the device?
Scripts you write or paste	App-private storage (local database)	No
App settings / preferences	App-private storage	No
Video recordings (camera + microphone)	App-private storage; also copied to your gallery (“SmoothCue” album) when you allow it	Only into your own gallery, on your device
Audio-only recordings	App-private storage	No
A recording that could not be added to the gallery	Kept in app-private storage so you can retry; deletable from the preview screen	No

The app does not read your existing photos, videos, contacts, location, messages, calendar, or files.

Permissions and why they are used

Permission	Purpose	Prompted at runtime?
Camera	Show the live camera and record video in “Video” mode only	Yes
Microphone	Record audio while recording a video or an audio-only take	Yes
Add to gallery / photos	Save a finished video you recorded into your gallery	Yes (system dialog)
Keep screen awake (`WAKE_LOCK`)	Stop the screen dimming while the prompter is scrolling	No
Legacy storage (Android 10 and older only)	Save a finished video to the gallery on older Android versions	Handled by the system

Declining camera or microphone disables the recording features; the plain prompter still works. You can review or revoke permissions any time in Android Settings.

Sharing and export

Sharing is always initiated by you. When you tap Share, the app hands the selected file to the Android share sheet; the app you choose then handles it. SmoothCue does not choose recipients and does not upload files.

What the app does NOT do

No user accounts, sign-in, or profiles.
No advertising and no advertising SDKs.
No analytics, usage tracking, fingerprinting, or telemetry.
No crash- or performance-reporting SDKs.
No selling or sharing of personal information with third parties.
No uploading of scripts or recordings to the developer or anyone else.

Children

The app is a general-purpose utility, is not directed to children, and collects no personal information from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at the same URL and the effective date above will change.
