Introduction
Welcome to Muraly. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about how we collect, use, and protect your information. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection and use of information when you use our free augmented reality mural visualization service.
By using Muraly, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. We do not collect personal information for commercial purposes, and your privacy is important to us.
Information We Collect
Camera and Media Access
Muraly requires access to your device's camera to provide augmented reality visualization. Camera access is requested only when you actively use the AR features. We do not record, store, or transmit your camera feed to our servers. All camera processing occurs locally on your device.
Uploaded Images
When you upload images to visualize as murals, these images are processed entirely on your device. Images may be temporarily stored in your browser's local storage for session persistence, but they are never sent to our servers or shared with third parties.
Session Data
When you create or join an AR session, a session identifier is generated to enable peer-to-peer connections. This identifier is used solely for establishing connections between devices and is not linked to your personal information.
Browser and Device Information
Like most web applications, Muraly may automatically collect certain technical information such as browser type, device type, screen resolution, and operating system. This information is used to optimize the service and ensure compatibility.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide and maintain the AR visualization service
- Enable peer-to-peer connections for multi-device sharing
- Improve user experience and service functionality
- Ensure technical compatibility across different devices and browsers
- Maintain session state for your convenience
We do not use your information for advertising, marketing, or any commercial purposes. Muraly is a free, non-profit service.
Data Storage
Local Storage
Muraly uses your browser's local storage to save session data, uploaded images, and preferences. This data remains on your device and is not transmitted to our servers. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings.
Peer-to-Peer Connections
When sharing sessions between devices, connections are established directly between devices using peer-to-peer technology. Video streams and session data are transmitted directly between devices and are not routed through our servers.
Third-Party Services
Muraly uses the following third-party services to provide functionality:
- PeerJS: Used for establishing peer-to-peer connections between devices. Please refer to PeerJS Privacy Policy for their data practices.
- Discovery Service: A service that helps discover available AR sessions. Session identifiers are temporarily stored to enable session discovery.
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous usage data and improve the website experience. This service helps us understand how visitors interact with our website, which pages are most popular, and how we can enhance user experience. Google Analytics collects information such as page views, session duration, device type, and browser information. This data is aggregated and anonymized. You can opt-out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by adjusting your browser settings. For more information, please refer to Google's Privacy Policy.
We do not share your personal information with third parties except as necessary to provide the service functionality described above.

- Access any personal information we may have collected
- Request deletion of your data
