1.     Information We Collect

We collect information every time you communicate directly with us, transfer files, and post content on our Service for your convenience. We do not collect any information from or about you that does not have to do with our Service. We collect the following types of information:

·       Unique Device Identifier

·       File Transfer History (transferred file names and devices you have transferred to)

·       Non-Personal Information (phone IMEI number, phone model, rom, phone operator, location, operation system, etc.)

·       Communications between you and OmniaShare (emails, mail, feedback, etc.)

Device Identifiers. When accessing our Service on a mobile device, we have to access, collect, monitor, and/or store on your device "device identifier”. Device identifiers are small data files or similar data structures stored on or associated with your mobile device, which uniquely identify your mobile device.

2.     Application Permissions

Our Service requires access to certain permissions that are classified as access to sensitive and dangerous data on Android devices. The following is detailed explanations for the permissions required on Android devices:

LOCATION. Used for permissions that are associated with accessing the approximate location of the mobile device. This permission allows the Service to enable WiFi Hotspot and/or Bluetooth. This permission is necessary to requesting a connection, accepting a connection, and transferring data. The file transfer features will not function if this permission is disabled. The Service does not use or store the user’s GPS coordinates. 

PHOTOS. Used for permissions that are associated with accessing or saving to the photo gallery from the device. This permission allows the Service to access photos on the device so that the user can share photos to other devices and download photos sent from other devices.

CAMERA. Used for permissions that are associated with accessing camera or capturing images and/or videos from the device. This permission allows the Service to support three features related to phone camera:

1)     Scan QR Code for establishing a wireless connection between two devices faster because this method can bypass the manual input of wireless password.

2)     Capture and transfer photographic images from one device to another device as part of the Camera feature in a connected group.

STORAGE. Used for permissions that allow an application to read from and write to external storage. This permission allows the Service to access any files on the external storage, e.g. SD card, as part of the Service’s core feature of transferring files.  The user can select files to be transferred and send over the wireless connection created by the application. The user can also choose to save received files that are transferred over the wireless connection into internal storage or external storage.  The user must select to save to external storage from in-app settings. If this permission is disabled, users will not be able to upload or download files on the Service.

BLUETOOTH. This permission is required by Google OS in order to share WiFi hotspot name and password to other devices when you are trying to establish a connection.

CONTACTS. Used for permissions that allow an application to read and save contacts to the device. The Service uses this permission in order to upload the user’s contacts to the application so the user can connect with them on the application and so that the user can share contact information with others.
