This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our iOS mobile application (“Vaani” or the “App”).

B. Usage Data:

App Usage: We collect information about how you interact with the App, such as features used, pages viewed, and the frequency and duration of your sessions.

Device Information: We may collect information about your device, including the model, operating system, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information.

2. How We Use Your Information

We may use the information we collect for various purposes, including to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the App’s functionality and performance.
  • Facilitate appointment bookings and manage calls through Twilio’s services.
  • Personalize your experience, including offering relevant features and content.
  • Monitor and analyze usage patterns to enhance user experience and develop new features.
  • Communicate with you regarding support requests, product announcements, updates, and promotional offers.
  • Detect and prevent fraudulent or unauthorized activities.
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our policies.

3. How We Share Your Information

A. Service Providers:

We may share your information with third-party service providers to perform tasks on our behalf and to assist us in providing the App’s features. These include:

  • Firebase & Google Analytics: For analytics and performance monitoring.
  • Twilio: For phone calls and messaging infrastructure.

These service providers have access to your information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.

B. Legal Requirements:

We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or a government agency).

C. Business Transfers:

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, asset sale, financing, or bankruptcy, your information may be transferred or disclosed as part of that transaction, subject to any applicable privacy laws.

4. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When your information is no longer needed, we will securely delete or anonymize it.

6. Children’s Privacy

Vaani is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information without parental consent, please contact us. We will take steps to delete such information promptly.
