LevelScope privacy policy
Last updated: October 8, 2026
LevelScope does not collect, send or share any data. Everything you measure stays on your phone.
What data the app handles
- Measurements, projects, references and calibration profiles that you save, with the names and notes you type.
- Your settings, such as theme, language and tolerance.
- The phone model, stored with each calibration profile so it is not applied on a different device.
Everything is stored in a database inside the app’s private storage, which other apps cannot access.
What it does not do
- It does not use the Internet. The app does not have the Android permission to connect to the network, so it cannot send anything.
- It has no accounts or sign-in.
- It contains no ads, analytics or trackers.
- It does not use your location. The compass shows magnetic north using only the magnetic sensor.
- It does not use the camera, microphone or contacts.
- It is not copied to the cloud. Android’s automatic backup is turned off for this app.
Sensors and permissions
The app reads the phone’s motion sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and the gravity and orientation sensors) only while a measuring tool is on screen. Android does not require a permission for these sensors. Readings are processed on the spot and are not stored, except for a measurement you choose to save.
The only permission it uses is vibration, to alert you when a target is reached. You can turn it off in Settings.
When data leaves the phone
Only when you export measurements to a CSV or JSON file and choose, in Android’s share menu, which app to send it to. From that point the file is subject to the rules of the app you chose.
How to delete your data
- A measurement, project, reference or profile: from within the app.
- Everything: in Android, Settings → Apps → LevelScope → Storage → Clear data, or by uninstalling the app.
Because there is no cloud copy, deleted data cannot be recovered. If you change phones, export your measurements first.
Children
The app is not directed at children and, since it collects no data from anyone, it collects none from children.
Changes to this policy
If a future version changes any of the above (for example, to calculate true north from your location), this policy will be updated first and the app will ask for the corresponding permission.
