ColorMatch (Android app)
Effective date: 18 April 2026
This section describes how the ColorMatch Android app (com.eksikalori.colormatch) handles data. It supplements — and, where it conflicts, overrides for the ColorMatch app only — the rest of this Privacy Policy.
What data the app accesses
ColorMatch uses the device’s CAMERA permission for one purpose: to let you take a photograph from within the app so the app can compute the average color of the captured image and suggest related colors. No other personal data, account information, location, contact list, or device identifier is requested or read by the app.
How that data is processed
When you take a photograph in the app:
- The captured image is written to the app’s private cache directory on your device using a
FileProviderURI granted only to the system camera process. - The app reads the image back into memory, downsamples it to a maximum 1024-pixel edge, and calculates the average red, green, and blue values across all pixels.
- The calculated colors and their complementary values are displayed on screen.
- The cache file is deleted immediately after the analysis completes.
All processing happens entirely on your device. The image and the calculated values are never uploaded to any server, sent to any third party, or shared off-device. The app contains no analytics SDK, no crash-reporting SDK, no advertising SDK, and no networking code.
What is collected, stored, or shared
| Personal data collected | None |
|---|---|
| Photos uploaded or transmitted | None |
| Data stored persistently | None — the captured image lives only in the app’s private cache during analysis (typically under one second) and is then deleted |
| Data shared with third parties | None |
| Accounts, login, or sign-in | None — the app has no account system |
| Network access | None — the app does not request the INTERNET permission |
Permissions
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
android.permission.CAMERA | Required to take a photograph for color analysis. The app uses the standard ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE intent, which presents the system camera UI. |
The app declares no runtime permissions other than CAMERA.
Children
ColorMatch is a general-audience utility and is not directed at children under 13. The app collects no data, so there is no special handling for minors beyond what is implied by the no-collection rule.
Changes to this section
If the app’s data-handling practices change in a future release, this section will be updated and the effective date above will be revised.
