AS Tools Studio ("we," "our," or "us") operates the PrintMate: Smart Printer mobile application ("App"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your information.
This Privacy Policy explains how information may be accessed, used, and handled when you use PrintMate: Smart Printer.
By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information the App May Access
PrintMate provides printing, file management, PDF editing, photo editing, and printer connection features. Depending on the features you use, the App may request access to certain information or device functions.
Photos and Media
If you choose to print or edit photos, the App may request access to photos or media stored on your device.
This access is used to:
- Select photos for printing
- Edit images
- Add drawings or annotations
- Prepare images for printing
We do not need access to your photos unless you choose to use features that require them.
Files and Documents
The App may access files that you specifically select through the Android file picker or supported import options.
Selected files may be used for:
- Printing
- PDF editing
- Annotation
- Merging or splitting PDFs
- Adding signatures
- Other document-related features
The App does not need access to all files on your device simply for you to use the basic features.
Contacts
If you choose to use the contact printing feature, PrintMate may request permission to access contacts on your device.
Contact information is used only to provide the requested contact-related functionality, such as preparing contacts for printing.
Printer and Network Information
To discover and connect to compatible printers, the App may use available Wi-Fi, network, or Bluetooth-related functionality supported by your Android device.
This may include information necessary to identify and communicate with a compatible printer.
Printer connection functionality depends on your device, printer model, network configuration, and supported printing protocols.
2. Google Drive and Other File Sources
PrintMate may allow you to import files from supported services such as Google Drive.
When you choose to import a file from a third-party service, the App only receives the content or information necessary to perform the action you request.
Third-party services have their own privacy policies and terms. We recommend reviewing the privacy practices of any external service you use with PrintMate.
3. Email and Shared Content
PrintMate may allow you to print supported files or content shared from an email application or another compatible app.
PrintMate does not need to read your entire email account to provide this functionality. When supported, you choose the content or file that you want to open or share with PrintMate.
4. Website Printing
If you use the website printing feature, the App may access the webpage or content you specifically request to prepare it for printing.
Website content is controlled by the respective website owner. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or policies of third-party websites.
5. How We Use Information
Information or device access required by PrintMate may be used to:
- Connect to compatible printers
- Print documents, photos, PDFs, and other supported content
- Import files selected by you
- Edit and prepare documents
- Edit photos
- Process PDFs
- Provide printer setup guidance
- Provide requested app functionality
- Improve the reliability and functionality of the App
We do not use your selected documents, photos, or contacts for purposes unrelated to the functionality you request unless otherwise disclosed.
6. Data Storage
PrintMate may temporarily process files, photos, documents, or other content on your device when necessary to provide printing or editing functionality.
Where processing can be performed locally on your device, the App is designed to use the content for the requested operation.
You remain responsible for the files and content you choose to import, edit, or print.
7. Third-Party Services
PrintMate may work with third-party platforms or services when you choose to use features such as cloud file import, printer connectivity, or other external functionality.
Third-party services may process information according to their own privacy policies.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before using them.
If the App uses third-party advertising, analytics, crash reporting, or similar SDKs, those services may collect information according to their respective policies.
8. Advertising and Analytics
If third-party advertising or analytics services are integrated into a particular version of PrintMate, those services may collect information such as device identifiers, usage information, diagnostics, or advertising-related information as permitted by their policies.
The exact information collected depends on the third-party services integrated into the version of the App you use.
Where applicable, third-party providers process information according to their own privacy policies.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information processed through the App.
However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should avoid using PrintMate to process highly sensitive information unless you are comfortable with the associated risks.
10. Children's Privacy
PrintMate is not specifically directed toward children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 for purposes unrelated to providing the App's functionality.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at:

Depending on your Android version, you may be able to:
- Allow or deny photo/media access
- Allow or deny contact access
- Manage nearby device or Bluetooth permissions
- Manage network-related permissions
- Remove previously granted permissions
Disabling certain permissions may prevent related features from working.
You can also stop using the App and uninstall it from your device at any time.
12. Third-Party Websites and Services
PrintMate may provide access to or interact with third-party services, websites, cloud storage providers, email applications, or printer-related technologies.
We do not control third-party privacy practices.
Any information you provide directly to a third-party service is governed by that service's privacy policy and terms.
