DocArmor — Privacy Policy
DocArmor Privacy Policy
DocArmor stores your most sensitive documents — IDs, insurance cards, passports — encrypted with AES-256 and locked behind Face ID or Touch ID. Nothing is ever uploaded, synced to iCloud, or transmitted anywhere. Your documents exist only on your device.

Document Storage and Encryption
All documents you add to DocArmor are encrypted using AES-256 via Apple's CryptoKit framework before being written to the app's private local storage container. The encryption key is generated on your device, stored in the iOS Keychain with the highest available protection class, and never leaves your device.
Documents are stored in the app's sandboxed private directory and are not accessible to any other app or to the operating system without authentication.
Face ID and Touch ID
DocArmor uses Apple's Local Authentication framework (LAContext) to require biometric verification before granting access to your documents. Your biometric data — fingerprints, face geometry — is never accessed or read by DocArmor. The framework returns only a pass/fail result. Biometric data never leaves the device's Secure Enclave.
Document Scanner
The built-in document scanner uses Apple's VisionKit framework (VNDocumentCameraViewController) and processes the camera feed entirely on-device. Scanned document images are passed directly to the encryption pipeline — they are never written to your photo library, never cached to disk in unencrypted form, and never transmitted anywhere.
iCloud and Sync
DocArmor explicitly disables iCloud sync for all document data. Your encrypted vault does not appear in iCloud Drive, iCloud Backup, or any Apple cloud service. Documents exist only in local device storage. If you delete the app, your documents are permanently deleted. We recommend exporting documents you need before uninstalling.
Photo Library Access
If you choose to import an existing photo from your library into DocArmor, the app requests photo library read access for that operation only. The imported image is immediately encrypted and stored in the local vault. DocArmor does not scan, index, or retain access to your broader photo library.
In-App Purchases
DocArmor is a one-time purchase processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive or store your payment information, Apple ID, or any billing details. Purchase verification is handled on-device by Apple's StoreKit framework.
Third-Party Services
DocArmor does not integrate with any third-party analytics services, advertising networks, social media SDKs, cloud storage providers, or data brokers. There are no third-party frameworks in the app that collect or transmit data.
Children's Privacy
DocArmor does not collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. The app is rated 4+ and is safe for all ages.
Data Retention
All document data is stored locally on your device. We retain nothing on our end because nothing is ever sent to us. Uninstalling the app permanently and irrecoverably deletes all stored documents — there is no server-side copy to restore from.
Changes to This Policy
If we ever change this privacy policy, we will update this page with the new date. Since we don't collect email addresses or contact information, we cannot notify you directly — please check this page periodically.
