Privacy Policy for Virginia Beach House Museum (VBHM) ‘History Explorer’ by CM&D
1. Introduction
Welcome to the Virginia Beach House Museum (VBHM) History Explorer application (app), developed by CM&D. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we handle your data when you use our app.
2. Data Collection
2.1. Personal Data
VBHM does not collect any personal data from its users.
2.2. Non-Personal Data
While using our app, certain non-personal data may be processed to enhance your experience:
- Device Information: Details about your device, such as model and operating system, may be accessed to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
2.3. Third-Party Data Collection
Our app utilizes Apple’s ARKit framework to provide augmented reality (AR) experiences, including image detection, surface detection, face detection, and depth sensing using the TrueDepth camera. ARKit may process data to enable these features. These features process data locally on your device and do not store or transmit any data to external servers or third parties. For more information, please refer to Apple’s privacy policy.
- Use of TrueDepth API and Facial Data: Our app integrates the TrueDepth API to enable the AR face filter feature, which tracks facial movements to accurately render augmented reality elements (e.g., a digital crown) onto the user’s face. This feature processes data locally on your device and does not store or transmit any facial data to external servers or third parties.
- Collection: Facial data captured through the TrueDepth API is used only for real-time rendering of the AR face filter and is processed entirely on the device.
- Use: The data is used exclusively for overlaying AR effects and improving the user experience.
- Disclosure and Sharing: No facial data is shared with third parties.
- Retention: No facial data is stored; all processing occurs in real time and is discarded immediately after use.
3. Permissions
VBHM requires the following permissions to function effectively:
- Camera Access: To provide AR experiences, including image detection, surface detection, face detection, and depth sensing using the TrueDepth camera.
- Storage Access: To allow users to save and share images related to the AR experiences.
4. How We Use Your Data
Since VBHM does not collect any personal data, we do not use your data for any purposes. However, third-party services like ARKit may process data as specified in their privacy policies.
5. Data Security
We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. We have implemented suitable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information processed by our app.
6. Third-Party Links
Our app may contain links to other websites or services. Once you use these links to leave our app, we do not have any control over those websites. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information you provide while visiting such sites.
7. Use of TrueDepth API
Our app uses Apple’s TrueDepth API for face scanning to enable face filters as part of its augmented reality (AR) features. Here are the details of how we handle this technology:
- Purpose of Data Collection
TrueDepth data is used solely to provide face tracking and enhance the accuracy and functionality of face filters.
The data enables the app to accurately align AR content (such as filters) to your face in real-time. - Type of Data Collected
The app processes depth information and facial geometry data provided by the TrueDepth API.
This data remains on your device and is not sent to our servers or any third party. - Data Storage and Security
TrueDepth data is processed in real-time and is never stored on the device, shared, or saved in any form.
The app does not collect, transmit, or store any images or biometric data derived from the TrueDepth camera. - Compliance with Apple’s Guidelines
We comply with Apple’s App Store Guidelines by ensuring TrueDepth data is used solely for the app’s functionality and not for marketing, user profiling, or any other purposes. - No Sharing or Selling of Data
The app does not share or sell TrueDepth data to third parties for any purpose. - User Control
Users can choose to disable the use of the TrueDepth camera at any time by adjusting the app permissions in their device settings.
8. Your Rights
As our app does not collect any personal data, there are no data rights to exercise. However, we advise you to review the privacy policies of third-party services like ARKit to understand your rights concerning the data they may process.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.
