 Contact: eprimedigital@gmail.com

HinduVerse (“HinduVerse,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) provides a mobile app and website that offer short spiritual practices, learning content, and progress tracking. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how you can control your information.

Quick summary: We collect only what we need to create your account, sync your practice, support subscriptions, and keep things running safely. We don’t sell your data.

1) Information we collect

You give us

• Account & profile: email address and display name (if provided). If you use third-party sign-in (Apple/Google), we receive a unique identifier and the email they share with your permission.

• Content & activity you choose to store: japa counts, reading history, saved items, plans, goals, notes, preferences (language/script, notifications).

• Support messages: when you contact us.

Collected automatically

• Device & app data: app version, device model, OS, time zone, language, crash logs, and basic usage analytics.

• Website cookies (for the 1-page site): essential cookies and limited analytics to keep the site working and understand basic traffic.

From Apple during purchases

• Subscription status and receipts: product ID, original transaction ID, renewal/expiry dates, and Apple Server Notification events (renew, cancel, refund). We do not receive your full payment card details—Apple processes payments.

2) How we use your information

• Provide, personalize, and improve the app (sync practice, show saved items, recommend content).

• Authenticate your account and secure sessions.

• Process and validate in-app subscriptions and free trials (via Apple).

• Fix problems and improve stability (crash/diagnostic data).

• Communicate with you (service messages, support).

• Comply with law and enforce our Terms.

3) Legal bases (EEA/UK users)

We rely on: Performance of a contract (to run the app you asked us to provide), Legitimate interests (security, improvement), and Consent where required (notifications, certain analytics).

4) Sharing of information

We share only with:

• Service providers acting on our behalf (e.g., hosting/database, authentication, analytics, crash reporting).

• Apple (App Store, StoreKit) to manage purchases; Google if you use Google sign-in.

• Authorities when required by law or to protect rights, safety, or security.

• Business transfers if we undergo a merger, acquisition, or asset sale (your privacy rights remain).

We do not sell your personal information.

5) Data retention

We keep data while your account is active. If you delete your account, we delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where we must retain certain records for legal, security, or fraud-prevention reasons.

6) Your choices & rights

• Access/Export: request a copy of your data.

• Correct/Update: fix profile details and settings.

• Delete: delete your account in-app or by emailing us.

• Opt-out of notifications/analytics: control these in Settings (where available).
   EEA/UK users may also object to processing or complain to a supervisory authority.

7) Children’s privacy

HinduVerse is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

8) Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards (encrypted transport, secure token storage, access controls). No method is 100% secure; please keep your device and account credentials safe.

9) International transfers

Your data may be processed outside your country (e.g., in Canada/US). We use appropriate safeguards where required by law.

10) Third-party links

Our content may link to external sites or videos. Their privacy practices are their own.

11) Changes to this policy

We may update this Policy. If changes are material, we’ll notify you in-app or on the site. Continued use means you accept the updated Policy.
