Your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains what information Scan Workbench ("the App") collects, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information. The App is developed and operated by Toni Marence ("we", "us", "our"), reachable at app@marence.at.
We follow the principles of data minimisation and privacy by design: we only collect what is strictly necessary, and we never sell your data.
Scan Workbench stores certain data locally on your device to provide its core functionality. Unless a specific feature below states otherwise, that data is not sent to servers operated by the Developer.
Scan Companion uses the camera only while you are scanning, to photograph the object you chose. The photos are saved in the app’s own folder on your device (also visible in the Files app). They are never uploaded to the Developer or any third party. You can delete a capture in the app at any time, and you can turn camera access off in the iOS Settings.
Scan Companion looks for Scan Workbench on your local network and sends the photos and Apple’s processing data directly to your Mac over Wi-Fi. This connection stays inside your local network; nothing passes through the internet or servers run by the Developer. iOS asks for permission before the app may use the local network, and you can change this in the iOS Settings. Instead of the live connection you can also send a capture as a .zip file with AirDrop or the Files app.
Scan Workbench builds the 3D models on your Mac with Apple’s photogrammetry. Received photos, models and exports are stored in folders on your Mac that you control. Scan Workbench does not upload them anywhere.
