Privacy Policy
Summary: Stotra Kamal is designed as a peaceful, sacred devotional application. We respect your spiritual journey and personal privacy. We do not sell your data and we do not display intrusive third-party advertisements.
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how CodeSilpi ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, protects, and discloses information when you use the Stotra Kamal mobile and web applications (the "App"). By using Stotra Kamal, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information We Collect
A. Information You Provide
- Account Information: When you sign in using Google Sign-In or Apple Sign-In, we collect your name, email address, and authentication user ID provided by the authentication provider. If you choose Guest (Anonymous) mode, an anonymous randomized ID is created to manage your favorites and offline sync without collecting personal identifiers.
- Preferences & Settings: Your language selection (Telugu, English), preferred Panchangam timezone region (e.g., India, US West, UK), and audio playback settings are stored locally on your device and synchronized with your account.
B. Information Collected Automatically
- Usage & Device Metrics: We collect non-personally identifiable diagnostic information such as device model, OS version, app crashes, and feature interactions through Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics to maintain application stability and performance.
- Panchangam Region: Stotra Kamal does not track your precise GPS coordinates. You manually select your preferred Panchangam location/timezone from the available settings menu.
3. How We Use Your Information
| Purpose | Data Used | Legal Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Syncing Favorites | User ID, saved stotras list | Contractual fulfillment |
| Personalized Panchangam Calculations | Selected region/timezone | Legitimate interest / preferences |
| App Stability & Crash Prevention | Anonymous device logs, crash reports | Legitimate interest |
4. Third-Party Services & Infrastructure
We work with trusted cloud infrastructure providers to run Stotra Kamal securely:
- Supabase: Cloud database, authentication, and encrypted storage bucket hosting.
- Google Firebase (Analytics & Crashlytics): To monitor system reliability and anonymized usage trends.
- Google Sign-In & Apple Sign-In: For secure authentication without handling passwords directly.
5. Data Retention & Account Deletion
We retain your account data (such as bookmarked stotras and progress) for as long as your account remains active.
6. Children's Privacy
Stotra Kamal is suitable for devotional and cultural education for all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information without parental consent, please contact us immediately so we can remove such information.
7. Security Measures
We implement industry-standard encryption protocols (HTTPS/TLS) for data in transit and Row-Level Security (RLS) on our cloud database so that your favorites and account settings are accessible only by you.
8. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to reflect app updates or regulatory requirements. Any modifications will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
