3. Data collected by the App
a) Data read from the electronic ID card (via NFC)
- Full name, surname
- Date of birth, sex, nationality
- Document number, date of expiry
- Personal identification number (JMBG)
- Facial photograph
- Signature image
- Digital certificate information (issuer, validity)
b) Camera data
The App uses the device camera for scanning the back of the ID card. Camera images are processed in real time on the device and are not stored, recorded, or transmitted.
c) Biometric data
The App may use device biometrics (fingerprint, face unlock) for app lock on launch. Biometric data is handled entirely by the device operating system. The App does not access, store, or transmit biometric data.
d) PDF documents
Users add PDF documents for digital signing. Documents are stored locally on the device.
4. How data is processed
All data processing occurs locally on the user's device.
- Card data is read directly from the ID card chip and displayed on screen. It is not transmitted to any server.
- Signed PDF documents are stored locally. Users can save or share them at their own initiative.
- Camera images are processed on the device in real time. No images are sent externally.
- PIN, PUK and CAN codes are used only during the card communication session and are not stored.
5. Data storage
- Card data (name, photo, JMBG): stored in device cache until the app cache is cleared
- Signed PDF documents: stored in device storage until the user deletes them
- PIN / PUK / CAN: temporary memory only, for the duration of the card session
- Camera images: temporary memory only, processed in real time, not saved
- Biometric data: managed by the device operating system, not by the App
6. Data sharing
The App does not transmit any personal data to external servers.
No data is sent to DIGITAL CONTROL d.o.o. or any third party. All processing is performed locally on the device.
7. Permissions required
- NFC: communicating with the electronic ID card
- Camera: scanning the ID card for data input
- Storage: storing and accessing PDF documents
8. Children's privacy
The App is not intended for use by children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
9. User rights
Since no personal data is transmitted to or stored by DIGITAL CONTROL d.o.o., there is no server-side data to access, rectify, or delete.
Users have full control over locally stored data:
- Delete documents via the App or device Settings
- Clear the app cache via device Settings
- Uninstall the App to remove all locally stored data
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page. Continued use of the App constitutes acceptance of any updates.
