VAMETRIC Privacy Policy – VALID-8 Uploader App (iOS and Android)
1. Introduction
VAMETRIC (“VAMETRIC”, “we”, “us”) provides the VALID-8 Uploader mobile application (the “App”), which enables users to upload media / files to their existing VALID-8 account from their mobile device.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information in connection with the App. The App is designed as a limited-function tool and operates as an extension of the VALID-8 platform.
By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
2. Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies only to the VALID-8 Uploader App.
The App does not provide account registration or full platform functionality. Users must already have an active VALID-8 account and have accepted the main VALID-8 Terms and Privacy Policy.
Where applicable, this App Privacy Policy should be read alongside the main VALID-8 Privacy Policy, which governs the broader collection and use of personal information within the platform.
3. Information We Collect
The App collects only the minimum information required to function.

3.2 Uploaded Content
The App collects and processes the files you choose to upload, including photos, video recordings, audio recordings, etc.
These files are uploaded to your VALID-8 account and become part of your profile within the VALID-8 platform.
