Privacy
Last updated 28 October 2026
DScan is a document scanner that runs in your phone's browser. It is made by StellarClouds Private Limited. This page explains what happens to your data when you use it. The short version: your scans never reach us.
Your scans
- Photos you take with DScan are processed on your phone. Cropping, blurring, colour changes and making the PDF all happen there.
- We never receive your scans. There is no upload and no cloud storage.
- Scans you haven't sent yet are kept in your browser's storage on the phone, so they survive if Android closes the app. They are deleted when you send them, or when you tap Clear or Remove.
- When you tap Send, Android's share menu passes the files to the app you choose, such as Gmail or WhatsApp. From then on, that app's own privacy policy applies.
What we count
To know whether DScan is useful, we use Mixpanel to record two events:
- Open, when the app starts.
- Send, when files are handed to the share menu, with the number of documents and pages.
These events carry no file names, no images and nothing you typed. Mixpanel stores a random ID in your browser so it can tell a returning phone from a new one, and it works out a rough location (country and city) from your internet address. Session recording and automatic click tracking are switched off, because the screen shows your documents.
What we store on your phone
- Unsent scans, as described above.
- The page size you chose, as one number.
- Mixpanel's random ID and its queue of events not yet sent.
DScan sets no cookies. You can remove everything by clearing the site's data in Chrome, or by uninstalling the app from your home screen.
Our server
Our server only sends the app to your browser and shows the count of sends on the home screen. It stores nothing about you. It is hosted on Fly.io in Singapore, which keeps short-lived request logs (internet address and page requested) to run the service.
Children
DScan is not aimed at children and does not knowingly collect anything about them. It collects nothing personal from anyone beyond the counts above.
Changes and contact
