Movie Identifier & Rating Guide

Effective Date: October 27, 2026

1. Introduction & Overview

Meet ReelScout, your handy companion for identifying movies. When you spot a film poster on the street, at a theatre, or catch a movie playing on a nearby screen, ReelScout lets you scan the poster or screen—or search by title—to find the movie in ReelScout’s available catalogue, check details, save it to your history, and access rating and review providers.

We believe that finding great films shouldn’t come at the cost of your digital privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how ReelScout handles camera input, image files, search history, and external review links.

2. How Scans & Image Processing Work

ReelScout allows you to identify movies using your camera or an existing image from your photo gallery:

• Poster & Screen Scans: When you snap a poster or screen, ReelScout processes the visible text and imagery strictly to match the film with its available catalogue.
• Automatic 24-Hour File Purge: All temporary scan files and processing cache created during an image scan are automatically deleted within 24 hours.
• No Biometric or Surveillance Use: We never scan for faces, extract biometric markers, or utilize your camera captures for facial profiling, identity harvesting, or AI model training.

3. On-Device Movie History & User Control

When you find a movie, you can save it to your history to revisit later—even when you are completely offline.

Your saved movie history is stored locally on your device. You retain full control over this data at all times:

• Individual Removal: You can delete any individual movie from your history with a single tap.
• Clear All History: You can wipe your entire movie history directly from within the app settings whenever you choose.
• Uninstallation Wipe: Uninstalling ReelScout permanently purges all saved history and preferences from your device.

4. Device Permissions

ReelScout requests minimal Android device permissions:

• Camera Permission (): Used strictly to allow you to scan a movie poster or screen within the app interface.
• Photos / Storage Access: Requested only when you tap to pick a movie poster image saved in your device’s gallery.
• Internet Access: Used to query the movie catalogue, check matching titles, and open external browser links for reviews.

5. External Links to Rating & Review Providers

To help you explore films deeper, ReelScout provides direct links to trusted third-party movie information, parental guides, and review platforms, including:

Important Notice: These links open in your device’s external web browser and may require an active internet connection. ReelScout is an independent application and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of these third-party providers.

When you navigate to an external website, their respective privacy policies, cookies, and terms of service govern your interaction. We recommend reviewing their policies if you have questions about how they handle web visitor data.

6. Advertising & Telemetry

ReelScout does not integrate third-party invasive behavioral tracking frameworks or sell user activity data to data brokers. We do not track your film tastes across other apps or build commercial marketing profiles from your searches.

7. Children’s Privacy

ReelScout is designed for general audiences and film fans of all ages. Because ReelScout does not collect personal names, email addresses, phone numbers, or account credentials, we do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 in applicable jurisdictions).

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to reflect app improvements, catalog additions, or statutory updates. Any changes will be published here at https://www.uwem.dev/privacy/reelscout with an updated effective date.
