This policy does not apply to third-party websites, web pages, or services that you access through the App.
2. Information We Process
2.1 Web Browsing and Image Recognition Information
- The App may store browsing-related information such as web page URLs, website domains, and page titles to restore recent records, favorites, or website-specific settings.

- Cookies, User-Agent, and Referer information may be used for image preview and download requests when a website requires them for access verification.
2.2 Downloads and Local Files
- Images you choose to download are saved locally on your device under the Documents/PicRover directory.
- Download tasks, download results, file names, file sizes, download times, and local file paths may be used to display information in the download management page.
- Unless you actively submit files through a feedback channel, the App does not proactively upload images that you download locally.
2.3 Settings, Membership, and Feedback
- Website recognition modes, auto paging, download filters, image playback preferences, and related settings may be stored locally to provide a personalized experience.
