Welcome to DevBhumi Char Dham Yatra ("the App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share information in connection with our mobile application and website (https://devbhumi.seeindia.net).
1. Information We Collect
To provide our offline navigation, spiritual guides, and travel assistance features, the App may access or collect certain information:
- Location Data: When you use the Trek Navigator, Route Wizard, or live companion map, the App accesses your device's precise (GPS) and approximate location to show your real-time position on the map and calculate trekking routes. This data is processed locally on your device and is not uploaded to our servers unless you explicitly submit a community road alert.
- Local Caches & Database: The App stores offline maps, temple wait times, and travel logs locally using IndexedDB and your browser's local storage (localStorage).
- Device Information: We may collect basic device diagnostics (OS version, screen dimensions) to optimize the application layout and performance.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To show your position on maps, enable trek mode routing, and calculate route distances.
- To retrieve spiritual narratives and audio recordings matching your location.
- To display relevant ads (if enabled via Google AdMob) to support the service.
- To improve the reliability and design of our pilgrim dashboard.
3. Information Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We utilize the following third-party services which may collect data in accordance with their respective policies:
- Google Play Services: Required for application distribution, updates, and core Android features.
- Google AdMob: If ad monetization is enabled, AdMob may use device identifiers to serve personalized or non-personalized advertisements.
- Gemini AI (Google): When you request spiritual narratives or translations, text queries are processed via Gemini API endpoints. No personal identity data is shared with the API.
4. Data Caching & Deletion Policy
All offline maps, logs, and settings are cached on your device. You can clear all collected information and preferences at any time by:
- Clearing the app storage or cache in your Android settings.
- Using the "Clear Local Data" options inside the app settings tab.
- Contacting us if you need help removing any community-submitted reports.
5. Security
We implement standard security measures to safeguard your settings. Because the app does not require a registration profile or store personal details on a cloud database, the risk of data compromise is minimal.
6. Changes to this Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
