AllMyPrinters app privacy policy

The app needs no account, shows no ads and contains no analytics or tracking services. Your spools, printers, printer credentials and history stay on your phone. Data only leaves the phone in three cases you trigger yourself: when you have a model sliced, when you send “Report a problem” and when you connect the app to your own AllMyPrinters agent.

Spools, locations, usage, print jobs, settings and the addresses, access codes, passwords and API keys of your printers are stored on the device only. The app connects directly to your printers on your home network and finds them there with local network requests. No manufacturer cloud and no cloud of ours is involved.

Camera: the app uses this permission only to scan QR codes on spool labels. The image is processed on the phone and is not stored or sent. Live images of your printers come straight from the printer on your network.

Android backup: if you have backup to your Google account switched on, Android backs up the app data (including printer credentials) under Google’s rules; from Android 9 with a screen lock this is encrypted. You can switch it off in the Android settings. Files you save yourself with “Save as file” are stored wherever you put them.

When you have a 3D model prepared for printing, the app sends the model file, the chosen settings and a description of the printer (brand, model, profile, loaded slots with material and colour) to our server allmyprinters.com (app versions up to 0.5.8: 3dsearch.net), together with a random device ID the app creates on first start. It is not linked to your name, your Google account or the advertising ID, and a new one is created if you clear the app data.

Model file, G-code and preview are deleted after 24 hours at the latest. A log with time, shortened device ID, IP address, file size and printer model is used to limit abuse and find errors, and is deleted after 30 days. Legal basis: the feature you requested (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR); for the log, our legitimate interest in secure operation (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Your own slicer: if you enter your own server under Settings → Slicer (for example the “AllMyPrinters Slicer” Docker container on your home network), the model, settings and device ID go only there. We receive none of it.

If you connect the app to your AllMyPrinters agent under Settings → Connect to agent (a Docker container on your home network), the app becomes a window onto the agent: spools, printers and history are then kept by your agent, not by us. When connecting, you can hand the app’s data over to the agent. At home the app connects to the agent directly over Wi-Fi. On the go the connection runs through our relay on allmyprinters.com, end-to-end encrypted: the key comes from the agent’s QR code, and we cannot read the content. What the relay processes for this is described in the privacy policy of the website.

For this the app opens the page allmyprinters.com/web, which stores a device key that cannot be read out and cached files of the interface in the app. The app also keeps a copy of the agent’s data on the phone, so you can disconnect at any time, even if the agent is no longer reachable. You disconnect in the agent under Settings → Pair devices. Legal basis: the feature you turned on (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).

If you send a report, we receive your description, your email address for follow-up questions if you enter one, and only the details you ticked: app version, Android version and phone model; printer type, model, firmware and connection state; the log of the last connection steps. Access codes, passwords, keys, printer addresses and print files are never included; the preview in the app shows exactly what is sent.

The report goes to our inbox on the server and the operator gets a short email notification. We keep reports as long as needed to handle them and for possible follow-up questions; you can ask us to delete them at any time. To prevent abuse we count reports per IP address and device ID for one day at most. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR.

allmyprinters.com and 3dsearch.net are hosted by velia.net Internetdienste GmbH in Germany and are delivered and protected by Cloudflare, Inc. (USA), which processes your IP address for this and is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. There are no other recipients; we do not sell data.

Links: if you open 3dsearch.net or allmyprinters.com from the app, this happens in your browser, and the privacy policy of the websites applies there.

The app is not directed at children under 16.

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability and objection (Art. 15–21 GDPR) and can complain to the Austrian Data Protection Authority or the authority in your EU country. Write to [email protected]. As we don’t know who you are, please give us the time of your report or your email address when you ask for access.
