Delete Your Data

App: DVR Time Traveler
Developer: SDTech Mobile Application Inc.

Privacy-first design: Sensitive records use OS-protected secure storage (AES-256-GCM with Android Keystore on Android; Keychain on iOS). Password-protected backups use AES-256-GCM. Photos and PDFs are ordinary files, not separately encrypted by the app. The app does not automatically upload case content to SDTech; sharing, exports, voluntary submissions and device photo-cloud sync can transfer copies. Removing app data does not remove copies in galleries, cloud services or export destinations.

1. Delete local data (on your device)

All case data is stored locally on your device and can be deleted at any time:

Option A — Delete all app data at once

  1. Open DVR Time Traveler
  2. Go to MENU → Settings → Data Management
  3. Tap "Clear All App Data"
  4. Select the data categories you want to delete
  5. Confirm the deletion

This permanently deletes:

  • Officer identification and presets
  • All report history
  • All notes pages
  • All DVR passwords/patterns
  • Agency logo
  • Error logs and diagnostics
  • App preferences and settings
  • Generated PDFs and temporary files

Option B — Delete individual items

  • Individual reports: Swipe to delete in Report History
  • Individual notes pages: Remove Page button in Notes
  • Individual DVR patterns: Delete in DVR PW/Patterns
  • Agency logo: Remove Logo in Settings → Agency Logo

Option C — Uninstall the app

Uninstalling removes the app sandbox, but does not guarantee removal of every copy. iOS Keychain entries may persist after uninstall. Use the app's deletion controls before uninstalling, and separately delete gallery photos, exported files and cloud copies as required by your retention policy.

2. Delete server-side data

A small amount of technical data is stored on SDTech servers for license management and app stability. This data does not include any case data.

Data type Retention Deletion
License activation records (device UUID, device name, device model, OS version, activation code) Until deactivation + 30 days Use in-app Migrate / Release function, or email us
Validation logs (IP address) 30 days Automatically purged
Trusted timestamp records (document hash only — no content) Indefinite By request (note: this voids timestamp verifiability)
Crash reports (Sentry — error details, device type, OS version) 90 days Automatically purged

To request deletion of server-side data:

Send an email to administrator@sdtech.app with:

  • Subject: Data Deletion Request — DVR Time Traveler
  • Your Device ID (found in the app at MENU → Settings → System & Admin → Device Info)
  • What data you want deleted (license records, timestamp records, or all server-side data)

We will process your request within 30 days and confirm deletion by email.

3. What is NOT deleted
