Legal & Data Transparency
Privacy Policy
🔒 100% On-Device Processing
Bhasku processes your active media, text, or geometric calculations locally on your physical hardware.
🚫 Zero Account Tracking
No account registration, login credentials, email scraping, or user profiling is required to use the Application.
🛡️ Safe Third-Party Practices
Diagnostics, app stability, and optional advertising are handled via industry-standard Google Play Services and AdMob.
1. Overview & Introduction
This Privacy Policy applies to the mobile software application Digital Wellbeing - Bhasku (the "Application"), developed and published by Corvas ("we," "our," or "Service Provider").
We are dedicated to building privacy-respecting, high-performance creator tools and utilities. We believe that your creative work, device files, and private inputs belong strictly to you. This document provides a declarative, transparent disclosure of how the Application handles device hardware, permissions, and diagnostic data.
2. Architecture & Data Handling Architecture
To avoid ambiguity, we explicitly delineate data handling across four distinct operational boundaries:
A. Personal Information Collected Directly by Developer
None. Bhasku is designed around privacy: no accounts, no logins, no cloud tracking.
B. Data Processed Locally On Your Device (Never Uploaded)
Your daily habits, streak counters, completion times, and mindfulness logs are stored exclusively in your device's internal application storage.
C. Data Transmitted to Our Backend
None. Your daily habits are personal and remain completely private on your phone.
D. Diagnostic & Advertising Data Collected Automatically by Third Parties
When you download and use the Application, standard operating telemetry may be generated by certified third-party SDKs (such as Google Play Services, Firebase Crashlytics, and Google AdMob). This may include anonymous device identifiers, Android OS build, hardware architecture, screen resolution, and crash stack traces.
Device Permissions & Data Access
To provide its core features, Bhasku may request the following device permissions:
Purpose: Delivers optional scheduled habit reminders, streak alerts, and mindful breathing prompts.
Data Handling: Scheduled and triggered locally on your device through the Android AlarmManager.
Purpose: Allows the app to display screen time awareness metrics to assist in personal digital wellbeing.
Data Handling: Usage statistics are read locally and never transmitted to our servers or third parties.
Third-Party Service Providers & SDKs
The Application relies on trusted third-party service providers solely for core functionality, advertising (where applicable), and app stability monitoring. These providers collect diagnostic or advertising device tokens according to their respective privacy policies:
| Service | Function / Purpose | Privacy Policy |
|---|---|---|
| Google Play Services | Core Android runtime services. | View Policy ↗ |
| Google AdMob | Serves non-intrusive advertisements in the free tier. | View Policy ↗ |
3. Advertising & Commercialization
Bhasku is supported by non-intrusive advertising (Google AdMob) in its free tier to support ongoing development and maintenance. Ad networks may collect anonymous advertising identifiers (Google Advertising ID) to deliver relevant or non-personalized advertisements based on user settings.
Product-Specific Disclosures & Clarifications
Not Medical or Mental Health Advice
Bhasku provides habit tracking and mindfulness breathing guidance for personal lifestyle self-improvement only. It is NOT medical, psychiatric, clinical psychological, or diagnostic software. If you are experiencing mental health crises or clinical distress, please consult a qualified healthcare professional.
4. Data Retention, Local Storage & Deletion
Because the Application does not maintain user accounts on remote servers, your files, documents, settings, and outputs reside exclusively on your physical mobile device. You have absolute control over this data at all times:
- Local Deletion: You can delete exported files or documents at any time using your device's file manager or gallery.
- App Cache & Storage Reset: Navigating to Android Settings > Apps > Bhasku > Storage > Clear Storage immediately purges all local cached data.
- Uninstall: Uninstalling the Application permanently removes all sandboxed preferences and internal application files.
5. Children's Privacy
The Application does not knowingly solicit or collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in applicable jurisdictions). If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to third-party SDKs through the app, please contact us and we will assist in taking appropriate corrective steps.
6. User Rights (GDPR / CCPA / International Regulations)
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may hold specific legal rights regarding personal data, including rights of access, rectification, objection to processing, and erasure. Because we do not associate your use of the app with your identity, we cannot query or provide records tied to you. However, you can manage diagnostic and ad personalization preferences directly through your Android device settings (Google > Ads > Delete advertising ID).
7. Contact Information & Policy Updates
We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect app updates, new platform guidelines, or legal obligations. Significant revisions will be reflected with a revised "Effective Date" at the top of this document.
