when the work is done. It performs no networking and moves no data off the
device.Your data lives only on your device. Uninstalling CranScan removes the app and all of its data. You may also delete individual documents (they move to a bin and can be deleted permanently) at any time within the app.
CranScan is a general-purpose utility. It does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children.
