Privacy Policy
Video Editor for Android. Effective date: 14 November 2026.
This policy explains what information the Video Editor app (package com.app.video.editor) handles, why, who receives it, and the choices you have. The app is published by Nextgenverse Solutions (“we”, “us”). If you have a question, write to support@nextgenversesolution.com.
In short
- You don't need an account, and we have no servers that hold your data.
- Your projects, recordings and settings stay on your phone. Your videos and photos stay where they are, and the app reads them only with your permission.
- Signing in with Google is optional. It is only for backups to your own Google Drive, made only when you choose. We never receive them.
- The app shows ads from Google AdMob. Google may collect your advertising ID, IP address and device information to do this.
- The app sends crash reports (Firebase Crashlytics) and usage statistics (Google Analytics for Firebase), so we can fix problems and see which features are used. They never include your name, email address, projects, text, photos or videos. We do not sell your personal information.
1. Information kept only on your phone
The app keeps the following on your phone. It is not sent to us.
- Your projects: your edits and their settings, and references to the videos, photos and music you add. The originals stay where they are. The app reads them with your permission and never changes them.
- Recordings you make in the app, such as teleprompter takes and voice-overs.
- Fonts and LUT (colour look) files you import, your templates, your export history and your app settings.
- Free music, sounds and stickers you download in the app, and projects you restore from a backup.
- If you sign in with Google, your account's name, email address and photo, so the app can show who is signed in.
- Videos you export, which are saved to your phone's gallery in Movies/VideoEditor. Other apps that can see your gallery can see them.
Nothing here leaves your phone unless you back it up (section 2) or share it (section 6). Android's automatic backup to your Google account is turned off for this app.
2. Google sign-in and Drive backups
Signing in with Google is optional. Its only purpose is to back up your projects to your own Google Drive and restore them, on this phone or another one.
- What the app asks Google for: access only to the files the app itself creates in your Drive (Google's
drive.filepermission), and your name, email address and profile photo, which the app shows so you can see who is signed in. The app cannot see or change anything else in your Drive. - Backups only when you choose. Each project you back up is saved as a .zip file in a “Video Editor backups” folder in your Drive. If you choose, the backup also includes the original videos, photos and music the project uses. The files go straight from your phone to your Google account. We never receive them.
- Restoring and deleting. You can restore or delete your backups in the app's settings, or delete them in Google Drive.
- Signing out removes the app's access to your Google account. Your backups stay in your Drive until you delete them.
Google stores your backups under the Google Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy, and they use your Google storage.
You can also save a single project as a .zip file with Back up as .zip on the Home screen. The file is saved only where you choose.
3. Advertising
The app is free and shows ads from Google AdMob, such as banners, full-screen ads and an ad when the app opens. It uses Google's User Messaging Platform to ask for your consent where the law requires it. To serve ads, measure them and prevent fraud, Google may collect:
- your device's advertising ID and app set ID, and, where applicable, other identifiers related to the accounts signed in on your device;
- your IP address, and an approximate location derived from it;
- device and app information, such as device model and Android version, and how the app performs, such as how long it takes to start;
- how you use the app and interact with ads, such as app opens, taps and video views.
Google handles this data under its own policies. See How Google uses information from apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.
Your choices. In the EEA, the UK and other regions where consent is required, the app asks for your choice before showing personalised ads. You can change it at any time in the app under Settings › Ad privacy options, which appears when it is required. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your phone's settings, usually under Google › Ads or Privacy › Ads.
Purchases. If the app offers a purchase, such as removing ads, Google Play handles the payment under its own terms. We never see your card or payment details. The app only checks with Google Play what your Google Play account has bought in the app.
4. Other services the app connects to
Some features work by contacting other companies. These services receive your IP address and the information listed below, and handle it under their own privacy policies.
| Service | What is sent | When |
|---|---|---|
| Google sign-in and Google Drive, by Google | Your sign-in, through Google Play services, and the backups you choose to make. Google tells the app your name, email address and profile photo | When you sign in, back up, restore or delete a backup |
| Openverse (api.openverse.org), run by WordPress.org | Search words: the ones you type, a starting word such as “Happy” when you open the free music or sounds, or the mood of a template you make with music | When you use the free music and sounds, or make a template with music |
| The sites that host the free tracks, such as Jamendo and Freesound | A request for the track's file | When you add a free track |
| jsDelivr, a public content delivery network | Requests for the 3D sticker images (Microsoft Fluent Emoji) | When you open the 3D stickers or use one |
| Your phone's speech recognition service, such as Google's | The sound of the clip you caption. The app asks for it to be recognised on the phone, but on some phones the service may send the sound to its provider, such as Google. The app receives only the text | Only when you start auto captions |
| Your phone's text-to-speech engine, such as Google's | The text you choose to have read aloud. The app uses the voices installed on your phone. Only when none is installed for a language does it offer the engine's online voices, which send the text to the engine's provider | Only when you use Read aloud |
| Google ML Kit | Device and app information (such as the device model, Android version and app version), performance measurements and an identifier for this installation, which Google uses to maintain and improve ML Kit. Your photos and videos are never sent | When the app uses ML Kit, for Cutout |
| Firebase, by Google | Connection data, such as your IP address, to download the app's ad settings and to serve these web pages | While the app runs, and when you open these pages |
| Firebase Crashlytics, by Google | When the app crashes or hits an error: where in the app it happened, the app's recent technical log lines, the device model, Android version, app version, free memory and storage, and a random identifier for this installation. Never your projects, photos or videos | When the app crashes or reports an error |
| Google Analytics for Firebase, by Google | Usage statistics: which screens you open and which features you use (for example finishing an export, with its resolution and frame rate, or opening a template), app opens and time in the app, the device model, Android version, app version, language, country (from your IP address) and a random identifier for this installation. Never your name, email address, project names, text, photos or videos | While you use the app |
| Google Play in-app review | The rating and review you choose to leave, under your Google Play account. The app is not told what you rated | Only when you leave a rating on the review card Google Play shows |
| Google Play Billing | A check, with your Google Play account, of what you have bought in the app. Google Play handles any payment | Only if the app offers a purchase |
| Apps you share to | The video you choose to share | When you share a video from the app |
Cutout, which removes a background, runs entirely on your phone with Google ML Kit. Your photos and videos are not uploaded.
5. Permissions
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
| Photos and videos | To show your videos and photos in the app's gallery, so you can add them to your projects. On Android 14 and later you can allow only the items you select |
| Music and audio | To list the songs on your phone in the music picker |
| Camera | To record yourself with the teleprompter |
| Microphone | To record voice-overs, and the sound of teleprompter recordings |
| Notifications | To show an export's progress and tell you when it is done |
| Storage (Android 8 and 9 only) | To save exported videos to your gallery |
| Internet and network state | For ads, backups, free music and sounds, and 3D stickers |
| Foreground service and wake lock | To keep an export running when you leave the app |
| Vibrate | For light touch feedback, which you can turn off in Settings |
| Advertising ID | To show ads, as described in section 3 |
On Android 12 and older, a single storage permission takes the place of the photos, videos and music permissions. The app does not request your location, contacts, calendar, call logs or SMS.
6. Sharing your videos
When you share a video from the app, it goes to the app you choose, which handles it under its own policy. Free music and sounds come with their own licences, and some need a credit, which the app shows after you export. Our Terms of Use explain what you need to know about the media, music and fonts you use.
7. How we use information
We use the information described here only to run the app's features, show ads, fix problems, improve the app and answer you when you contact us. Crash reports tell us what went wrong so we can fix it, and usage statistics show us, in totals, which features people use. We see them in Firebase only, under a random identifier for each installation, never linked to your name or email address. We do not sell your personal information. We receive only what you send us yourself, such as an email to us, and we use that only to reply.
8. Security
The app keeps its data in Android's private app storage, apart from the videos you export to your gallery and any .zip file you save yourself. Its connections to online services are encrypted in transit. Your Drive backups are protected by your Google account. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
9. Keeping and deleting your data
- On your phone: your data stays until you delete it in the app, clear the app's data or uninstall the app. Uninstalling removes everything the app keeps in its own storage. Exported videos and .zip files you saved stay until you delete them.
- Drive backups: they stay in your Google Drive until you delete them, in the app or in Google Drive. Signing out does not delete them.
- Everything at once: Settings › Delete account and data removes the app's access to your Google account, wipes every project, recording and setting on the phone, and can also delete the app's backups in your Google Drive. Our page Delete your account and data also explains how to do this without the app.
- Crash reports and usage statistics: Firebase keeps crash reports for 90 days, and Google Analytics keeps usage statistics for 2 months, after which only totals remain. They sit under a random identifier for your installation; clearing the app's data or uninstalling it starts a new one.
- Ad data: Google keeps it under its own policies. See the links in section 3.
We hold no account and no personal data on our own servers. Crash reports and usage statistics aren't linked to your name or email address, so we can't look yours up, but they expire as described above. You are welcome to contact us with any request.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live, including the EEA, the UK, India (under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023) and California, you may have rights to access, correct or delete your personal data, to object to or limit its use, and to withdraw consent. As your data stays on your phone and in your own Google Drive, you can use most of these rights directly in the app. For data held by Google, use Google's tools, such as your Google Account. Contact us if you need help, and we will answer within 30 days.
11. Children
The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you think a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the app changes. We will post the new version on this page and change the effective date above. Where a change is significant, we will tell you in the app.
