Camera Usage

Advixta application on the device uses the device’s camera for face detection purposes. The face detection functionality is provided by Google FaceDetector API as a default Android Operating System function. Our application does not store the image captured from the camera.

Journals

Journals are SQLite files generated by the application on your device. It collects a chronological set of events taking place in the application during its usage for the purpose of analysis, reporting and diagnosis.

Journals do not include any personal information (such as name, surname, address, email, telephone etc.) or payment details (such as credit card, address, bank account etc.). The information recorded in journals are only event based and includes technical details about device, location, advertising and content.

How we make journals

Advixta application has 2 states; sleep and awake. When there is no user or viewer in front of the devices, the device goes to sleep after a certain time. This is to save energy and make sure that content and advertising is not played when there is nobody watching. When a person appears in front of the devices, the device detects the viewer by using the front camera and wakes up. On wake up, the device starts the session until the person disappears from the camera or stops using the devices. On the start of each session, the device opens a new journal and records events that are used later for functionality purposes.
