CARD SCANNER PRO

Last Updated: July 30, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how CargoClave (“CargoClave,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, processes, stores, shares, and protects information when you access or use the Card Scanner Pro mobile application (“Card Scanner Pro” or the “App”).

By creating an account or using Card Scanner Pro, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

1. About Card Scanner Pro

Card Scanner Pro is a business card scanning and contact management application. It allows users to capture or upload business card images, automatically extract information using artificial intelligence, save and organize contact information, identify duplicate contacts, and manage professional connections.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information required to provide, maintain, secure, analyze, and improve Card Scanner Pro.

2.1 Account Information

When you create or manage a Card Scanner Pro account, we may collect:

Full name
Email address
Mobile number, when provided
Login and authentication information
Profile information
Account settings and preferences
Account creation and last login information

We use this information to create, authenticate, secure, and manage your Card Scanner Pro account.

Passwords are not intended to be stored in readable plain-text format.

2.2 Business Card and Contact Information

When you capture, upload, create, save, edit, import, or synchronize a business card or contact, we may collect and store information such as:

Person’s name
Company or organization name
Job title or designation
Email address
Phone number
Business address
Website address
Social media or professional profile information
Notes
Tags
Categories
Custom fields
Business card images
Text and contact details extracted from business card images
Information manually added or corrected by the user

Business card and contact information may relate to people other than the registered Card Scanner Pro user.

You are responsible for ensuring that you have the necessary permission, authority, or lawful basis to capture, upload, store, process, export, or share another person’s business card or contact information.

2.3 Camera Information

Card Scanner Pro requests access to your device’s camera so that you can photograph and scan business cards.

The camera is activated only when you use a feature that requires it.

Images captured through the camera may be processed by Card Scanner Pro and its authorized artificial intelligence or optical character recognition service providers to extract information from the business card.

2.4 Photos and Media

Card Scanner Pro may request access to photos or media stored on your device when you choose to upload an existing business card image.

The App accesses images selected by you or media required to provide the requested feature, subject to your device settings and permissions.

2.5 Device Contacts

Card Scanner Pro may request access to your device contacts when you choose to use features such as:

Saving scanned contacts to your device
Importing contacts
Exporting contacts
Synchronizing contacts
Identifying duplicate contacts

Contact access is used only to provide the functionality selected by you and after you grant the required device permission.

2.6 Artificial Intelligence and Automatic Data Extraction

Card Scanner Pro uses artificial intelligence, optical character recognition, or similar automated processing technologies to identify and extract information from captured or uploaded business card images.

For automatic data extraction, the following information may be processed:

Captured or uploaded business card images
Text appearing on business cards
Extracted names and contact details
Image quality and orientation information
Technical information required to complete the extraction request

Business card images and extracted text may be securely transmitted to an authorized artificial intelligence or optical character recognition service provider for processing.

The extracted information may be returned to Card Scanner Pro, displayed to you for review, and stored in our MongoDB database when you save the contact.

Artificial intelligence is used to assist with data extraction and contact organization. It does not make legal, financial, employment, credit, or similarly significant decisions about users or the individuals whose business cards are scanned.

Because automated extraction may not always be completely accurate, users should review and correct extracted information before saving or using it.

2.7 Analytics Information

Card Scanner Pro uses the Meta SDK for application analytics, performance measurement, attribution, and understanding how users interact with the App.

Depending on the configuration of the Meta SDK, your device settings, and the features you use, analytics information may include:

App installation information
App launch information
App events and feature interactions
Session information
Device type and model
Operating system and version
App version
Language and regional settings
IP address
Device or application identifiers
Advertising identifier, where available and permitted
Referral or attribution information
General usage and engagement information
Date and time of interactions

This information helps us understand how Card Scanner Pro is used, measure the effectiveness of application-related campaigns, improve user experience, and identify features that require improvement.

Meta may process information received through the Meta SDK according to its own applicable terms and privacy practices.

We do not intend to use business card images or extracted business card contact information for Meta analytics.

2.8 Crash and Diagnostic Information

Card Scanner Pro uses a crash analytics service to detect, diagnose, investigate, and resolve application crashes, errors, and performance problems.

Crash and diagnostic information may include:

Crash reports
Crash stack traces
Error messages
Diagnostic logs
App version
Device model
Device manufacturer
Operating system and version
Installation or session identifiers
