Privacy Policy
AlignerPro is designed as a local-first Android app. Your treatment data and progress photos are stored on your device unless you choose to send something yourself, such as a feedback email.
What AlignerPro is
AlignerPro helps clear aligner users track wear time, trays, progress photos, reminders, calendar entries, simple analytics and local backups. It does not provide dental or orthodontic advice, and it is not a replacement for guidance from your dentist or orthodontist.
What the app stores locally
AlignerPro stores app data in private storage on your Android device. This may include:
- Treatment setup details, such as tray count, tray dates and active tray.
- Wear sessions, timer state, daily logs, notes and calendar entries.
- Reminder settings, theme settings and app preferences.
- Progress photo records, saved progress photos and generated thumbnails.
- App lock settings if you choose to enable biometric or device lock protection.
Progress photos and tray data
Photos taken or imported in AlignerPro are saved in the app's private storage so they can be organised by tray, date and photo angle. If you import a photo from your device gallery, AlignerPro saves its own app copy for progress tracking. Your original gallery photo is left where it is.
Local backup and restore
When you export a local backup, AlignerPro creates a ZIP file containing the local app database, settings, timer preferences and progress photo files. You choose where that backup file is saved. AlignerPro does not upload that backup to an AlignerPro server.
Restoring a backup replaces the local data on the device with the data from the selected backup file.
Whether data is sent to servers
AlignerPro does not currently use AlignerPro servers to store treatment data, timer history, reminders or progress photos. The current Android app does not request internet access for normal app use.
This website does not use analytics scripts, advertising scripts or cookies.
Feedback emails
If you email [email protected], we receive the email address you send from and anything you include in the message. If you send feedback from inside the app, the email may include optional diagnostic details such as app version, build number, Android version and device model.
Crash and error reporting
No third-party crash reporting service is currently used. If crash or error reporting is added in future, this policy will be updated before that data is collected.
Permissions
AlignerPro asks for permissions only when they are needed for app features:
- Camera: used to take progress photos.
- Photos and media: used when you choose to import progress photos from your device.
- Notifications: used for wear reminders, tray switch reminders, appointment reminders and timer status.
- Foreground service: used to keep the wear timer visible with a persistent timer notification while tracking is active.
- Biometric or device lock: used only if you enable app lock in settings.
Data deletion and clearing
You can clear app data inside AlignerPro from Settings, Data, Clear all data. This deletes local treatment data, trays, wear sessions, daily logs, appointments, reminders, settings and app-stored progress photos on that device.
You can also clear local data through Android: Settings > Apps > AlignerPro > Storage > Clear data. Uninstalling the app may remove local app data from the device. Backup ZIP files you created yourself are outside the app after export, so you need to delete those files wherever you saved them.
More detail is available on the Delete data page.
