IDForm

Privacy Policy

IDForm Android app · Effective 4 November 2026

IDForm reads ID documents only on the phone and never sends ID data to any server. Read IDs are kept on the phone, encrypted, and deleted after 60 minutes. For the license, our server receives only an anonymous phone id, the phone model, the app version and a scan count. No ads, no tracking, no account.

1. What the app does

IDForm reads passports and ID cards (the MRZ lines with the camera, then the chip over NFC) and types the details into a form on a paired computer, acting as a Bluetooth keyboard.

2. On the phone

3. Sent to our server

For the free trial and the license, the app contacts idform.app when it opens and every few hours. It sends a one-way hash of the app's Android id, the phone model, the app version, the number of typed scans, whether a Google Play subscription is active and, when you enter one, a license code. The server also sees your IP address, which is logged to limit abuse. ID data is never sent. To have this deleted, write to us with the phone id shown on the app's license page. If you send a problem report from the app, we receive your message, the contact details you choose to add, and technical facts (app version, phone model, Android version, app settings). Please don't put guests' details in a report.

4. Payments

Subscriptions are bought through Google Play. Google processes the payment; we never see card details.

5. Permissions

Camera (MRZ), NFC (chip), nearby devices / Bluetooth (keyboard connection and pairing), internet (license), vibration (feedback), run at startup (deleting expired IDs after a restart).

6. Sharing

We don't sell personal data or use it for advertising. The app has no ads, analytics or tracking. Text recognition runs on the device with Google ML Kit; images are not sent to Google. The license server is hosted by our web hosting provider.

7. Data controller

The business using IDForm (for example a hotel) is the data controller for its guests' details (GDPR / KVKK); we have no access to them. For the license data above, the controller is Melisa SANAG, publisher of IDForm.

8. Changes

If this policy changes, the new version is published here with a new date.
