General technical information required to diagnose application problems
Network connectivity status
This information is used to improve application stability, compatibility, performance, and functionality.
D. Photos and Custom Images
If you choose to select an image from your device using the application's image selection features, the application may access the image you select.
Images may be used for features such as custom wallpaper backgrounds or handwritten Jap records.
Images selected through the application are processed locally on your device and are not intentionally uploaded to or stored on our servers.
The application does not access your entire photo library without your action to select an image.

Firebase Analytics may collect information such as:
App interactions and events
Screen views
Feature usage
App session information
General device and application information
Anonymous or pseudonymous identifiers associated with app usage
This information helps us understand which features are used, identify usability issues, and improve the overall application experience.
Firebase Analytics is provided by Google and may process information according to Google's applicable privacy policies.
F. Firebase Crashlytics
Bhakti Jap Counter uses Firebase Crashlytics to identify and diagnose application crashes and technical problems.
Crashlytics may collect information such as:
Crash reports
Device model
Operating system information
Application version
Crash-related technical information
Diagnostic information associated with application failures
This information is used solely for troubleshooting, improving application stability, and fixing technical issues.
3. App Permissions and Device Access
Bhakti Jap Counter is designed to request only the access required for specific features.
Photos / Images
When you choose to use a feature that requires selecting an image, the application may use the system image picker to allow you to select an image.
The application does not intentionally access or upload your entire photo library.
Vibration
The application may use device vibration or haptic feedback when you perform Jap actions or complete certain activities.
Vibration behavior can be controlled through the application's settings where available.
Internet / Network Access
Internet connectivity may be used for functionality such as Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics, opening external links such as the Google Play Store, or sharing application links.
4. How We Protect Your Data
Local Storage First
Your personal spiritual progress, including Jap counts, streaks, custom mantras, goals, and locally stored records, is primarily stored on your device.
No Account Required
Bhakti Jap Counter does not require you to create an account or provide an email address, phone number, password, or other personal credentials to use the core application.
No Selling of Personal Data
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party advertisers or data brokers.
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not intentionally upload your locally stored Jap counts, custom mantras, spiritual records, or selected personal images to our own servers.
However, the application uses third-party services such as Google Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics for analytics, diagnostics, and crash reporting.
These services may process technical, diagnostic, and application usage information as necessary to provide their services.
We may also disclose information if required to do so by applicable law, legal process, or a valid governmental request.
Third-party services operate under their own privacy policies and terms.
6. Third-Party Services and External Links
Bhakti Jap Counter may use or provide access to the following third-party services:
Google Firebase Analytics
Used to understand application usage and improve the user experience.
Firebase Crashlytics
Used to detect, diagnose, and fix application crashes and technical problems.
7. Data Retention and Deletion
Locally Stored Data
Your locally stored application data remains on your device until you delete it, clear the application's data, or uninstall the application.
You can delete locally stored application data by:
Using your device's application settings to clear the application's data, or
Uninstalling Bhakti Jap Counter.
Please note that clearing an application's cache alone may not delete stored application data.
Analytics and Crash Data
Information processed by Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics may be retained according to Google's applicable policies and retention settings for those services.
Because these services are provided by Google, their data retention practices may be subject to Google's policies.
8. Children's Privacy
Bhakti Jap Counter is not specifically directed toward children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
The application does not require users to create an account or provide personal credentials to use its core features.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the application, please contact us at jayp73382@gmail.com so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the application.
Because much of the app's spiritual and personal usage data is stored locally on your device, you should also use appropriate security measures on your device, such as a screen lock or device authentication.
No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the application, third-party services, legal requirements, or our privacy practices.
When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the beginning of this Privacy Policy.
We recommend reviewing this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
