Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 2026
1. Introduction
As the developer of Digital Mala, I respect your spiritual journey and your personal privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how the mobile application collects, uses, and safeguards your information. I believe your spiritual practices should remain completely secure and private.
2. 100% Offline & No Data Collection
Digital Mala is built with a strict privacy-first architecture. The application operates entirely offline on your mobile device:
- No Accounts: You are not required to create an account, log in, or provide any personal details (such as your name or email) to use the app.
- Local Database: All your chanting logs, custom mantras, daily streaks, heatmaps, and progress metrics are stored strictly on your device’s local secure storage.
- No Cloud Servers: I do not operate databases or backend cloud servers. Your data never leaves your phone.
- No Trackers or Ads: The app contains zero analytics trackers, third-party software development kits (SDKs), or advertisements. Your chanting behavior is never monitored.
3. Device Permissions
To deliver a premium, tactile experience, the app requests the following optional permissions:
- Vibration / Haptic Engine: Used to provide simulated bead haptic pulses during Japa chanting, letting you count rounds mindfully without looking at the screen.
- Storage / Media: Only used if you explicitly choose to export your Sadhana logs as a JSON backup or generate a PDF report of your progress.
4. Data Control and Deletion
Because your data is stored entirely on your device, you have absolute control over it. You can permanently delete all your data at any time by clearing the app’s cache/data in your device settings or by uninstalling the application. Once deleted, this data cannot be recovered by me, as I do not keep backups.
5. Children's Privacy
The application does not collect any personal information and is safe for individuals of all ages. I do not target or knowingly collect data from children.
6. Changes to this Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. I encourage you to review this policy periodically.
