Privacy Policy
In short: CoPO Evidence Lab does not collect, transmit, or store any of your data on our servers.
Your evidence files stay on your device. There are no accounts, no cloud storage, no analytics, no advertising, and no artificial intelligence.
This policy applies to the CoPO Evidence Lab apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, and Android (together, the "App"), published by Court of Public Opinion LLC ("we", "us").
Information we collect
None. We do not collect personal information, usage data, device identifiers, location, contacts, or diagnostics. The App contains no analytics, advertising, tracking, or crash-reporting software, and we do not operate any server that the App sends information to.
Your evidence files
- Stored only on your device. Files you import, the enhanced copies the App creates, and each case's chain-of-custody log are kept in the App's private storage on your device.
- Processed only on your device. All audio and video processing, hashing (SHA-256), and document generation happen locally. Your files are never uploaded to us or to any third party by the App.
- Shared only when you choose. A file, processing log, or declaration leaves the App only when you use Share, Save a copy, or Export. Where it goes is determined by you and the destination you select.
- We cannot access them. Because nothing is sent to us, we have no copy of your files and cannot view, recover, or produce them.
Purchases and subscriptions
Pro subscriptions are sold and billed by Apple (App Store), Google (Google Play), or Microsoft (Microsoft Store). Your payment details and account information are handled by those stores under their own privacy policies; we never receive them. To unlock Pro features, the App asks the store on your device whether you have an active subscription. We receive only the aggregated, non-identifying sales reports that the stores provide to all developers.
Network use
The App works fully offline. It connects to the internet only to communicate with your device's app store for purchases and subscription status, and when you choose to open a web link (such as this policy).
Permissions
The App reads files only when you select them through your device's file picker, or drag them into the desktop App. It does not request access to your camera, microphone, photo library, location, or contacts.
Data retention and deletion
Data remains on your device until you delete it. You can delete a case, including its originals, enhanced copies, and log, within the App. Uninstalling the App on iPhone, iPad, or Android removes its stored data; on Mac and Windows, the App's data folder may remain until you remove it.
Professional responsibility
You are responsible for the evidence you handle with the App, including client confidentiality, retention obligations, and any rules governing evidence in your jurisdiction. Declarations generated by the App are drafts to be reviewed before use.
Children
The App is intended for legal professionals and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Your rights
Because we do not collect or hold personal information, there is no personal data of yours for us to access, correct, export, or delete. Data protection laws such as the GDPR and CCPA give you rights over personal data a company holds; we hold none from the App.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we will update this page and its effective date. If we ever change the App in a way that collects data, we will update this policy before releasing that change.
