Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes the policies and procedures of PaHaSa Technologies ("we", "us", or "our") regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information in connection with the Shri Guru Granth Sahib Darpan mobile application (available on Google Play Store and Apple App Store).

Our app is created to serve as an offline study companion for the translation and explanation (Darpan) of Shri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. We respect your privacy and believe in keeping your experience safe and private.

2. Information We Collect (None)

We do not collect any personal data or tracking information when you download, install, or use the application:

• No Personal Identifiers: We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or account details. No sign-up or registration is required to use the app.
• No Location Data: We do not track or access your device's geographical location.
• No Usage Tracking: We do not capture or analyze individual usage metrics, page clicks, or study preferences.

3. Data Storage & Local Functions

The application is designed to function entirely locally on your mobile device:

• Bookmarks and Preferences: If you use bookmarking, notes, or styling settings within the app, all such configuration data is stored locally in the application's secure sandbox directory on your device. It is never uploaded to any remote server.
• Search Indexing: The search functionality is processed locally using an offline embedded database, meaning your search history remains private to your device.

4. Network and Operating System Permissions

The app may request standard OS permissions to support its operations:

• Network Communication: Used solely to allow external web links (e.g., checking for updates or contacting support) to open if you explicitly choose to do so. No background background tracking occurs.

5. Third-Party Libraries

This app does not contain third-party analytics libraries, advertising frameworks, or tracking SDKs. It is a completely clean, focused environment for study and reference.

6. Children's Privacy

Our application is open to users of all ages. We do not knowingly or actively collect any personal data from anyone, including children under the age of 13, in compliance with COPPA.
