Summary
- Your videos never leave your phone unless you share them yourself. LensLine saves them to your Photos or Gallery.
- Your scripts are stored on your phone. They're only sent to us when you use an AI feature, and we don't store them.
- No accounts, no ads, no tracking or analytics.
- If you join the early access list, we keep your email (and WhatsApp number if you give it) only to tell you about LensLine.
The LensLine app
Camera and microphone. LensLine uses them to show the camera preview and record your videos. Recording happens on your phone. We don't receive your video or audio.
Photos / Gallery. LensLine asks for permission to add videos to your library, so it can save your recordings. On iPhone it only asks for "add" access, so it can't see your other photos.
Files. When you import a script from a Word, PDF, RTF or text file, LensLine reads that one file on your phone to get the words out. The file isn't uploaded.
Floating script (Android). To show your script over other camera apps, Android asks you to allow LensLine to "display over other apps". It only uses this to show your script window.
Install ID. When you first open LensLine it creates a random ID for that install. It isn't linked to your name, phone number or contacts. We use it to apply AI usage limits and to know whether that install has LensLine Pro.
AI features
When you use Write with AI or Make it easier to say, LensLine sends what you typed (your topic, or the script you want simplified) and your choices (platform, tone, length) to our server, together with the install ID. Our server passes the text to our AI provider, Anthropic, which writes the script and sends it back to your phone.
Our server doesn't store the text you send or the script you get back. It only keeps a count of how many AI scripts each install ID has used, so it can apply the free and fair-use limits. Anthropic processes the text under its own commercial terms and privacy policy.
Please don't put private information you wouldn't want processed this way (like passwords or bank details) into the AI features.
Purchases
LensLine Pro is bought through the App Store or Google Play. Apple or Google handle your payment, and we never see your card details. We use RevenueCat to check whether an install has an active subscription. RevenueCat receives the install ID and the purchase receipts from Apple or Google.
This website
If you join the early access list, we collect your email address, your WhatsApp number if you choose to give it, the date you signed up, and the country your connection comes from. We use these only to tell you when LensLine is ready and to share important updates about it. We won't sell or rent them, and we won't add you to anyone else's list.
This website doesn't use cookies, ads or analytics. It loads fonts from Google Fonts and code libraries from jsDelivr, which see your IP address when your browser downloads them.
Who else is involved
We use a few services to run LensLine. They only get what they need to do their job:
- Cloudflare hosts this website and our server, and stores the early access list and AI usage counts.
- Anthropic writes and simplifies scripts when you use the AI features.
- RevenueCat, Apple and Google handle subscriptions and payments.
We may share information if the law requires it, or to protect the safety of our users or LensLine.
How long we keep it
- Daily AI usage counts are deleted automatically after 48 hours.
- The count of free AI scripts used by an install is kept so the free limit works. It's linked only to the random install ID.
- Early access sign-ups are kept until LensLine has launched and we've told you, or until you ask us to delete them, whichever comes first.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you, or to take you off the early access list, at any time. Depending on where you live, you may have extra rights under laws like the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 or the GDPR, including the right to complain to your data protection authority.
You can turn off camera, microphone, photos and "display over other apps" permissions at any time in your phone's settings. Some features won't work without them.
Children
LensLine isn't made for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them. If you think a child has given us information, contact us and we'll delete it.
Changes and contact
If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top. If a change is important, we'll tell you in the app or by email.
