Gitanagari Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 30, 2026

Gitanagari helps people apply Bhagavad Gita teachings through short lessons, scenarios, games, review sessions, and optional recitation practice. This policy explains what the app stores and how it uses device permissions.

Information Stored on Your Device

Gitanagari stores gameplay progress, settings, streaks, entitlements, and optional recitation recordings in the app's private local storage. This information is used to restore your progress and app preferences. You can reset progress and delete saved recordings from the app's Settings screen. Uninstalling the app also removes its private local storage, subject to Android and iOS device backup behavior.

Microphone and Recitation

The microphone is used only when you explicitly start recitation recording and grant microphone permission. The recording is saved locally on your device so you can play it back and analyze it. The Android and iOS builds perform Sanskrit recognition on the device. The app does not upload your recording or voice to a Gitanagari server.

Payments

Gitanagari may offer a one-time full-access purchase through Google Play on Android and the Apple App Store on iOS. Google Play and Apple process the payment. Gitanagari does not receive or store your card number or other payment credentials. The app uses the purchase result to determine whether the local full-access entitlement is active. On iOS, Apple Family Sharing may let family members use a purchase made by another member of the same Family Sharing group.

Permissions

Gitanagari requests microphone permission only for recitation scoring. It does not use the camera, photo library, contacts, location, or tracking. You can deny microphone access and still use the rest of the app. On iOS you can also reset this permission in Settings.

Information We Do Not Collect

Gitanagari does not require an account and does not operate a backend account database. We do not use the app to collect your name, contacts, location, advertising identifier, browsing history, or microphone audio on our servers. The app contains no advertising or third-party analytics service.

Third-Party Services

Google Play and Apple may process app distribution, licensing, and payments under their own terms and privacy policies. The app may open the Google Play or Apple App Store page when you choose a store action. See Google's Privacy Policy and Apple's Privacy Policy.

Children

Gitanagari is designed for kids, teens, and young adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through a Gitanagari server. Parents or guardians should supervise microphone use and purchases on a shared device.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when the app's features or privacy practices change. The effective date above will identify the latest version.
