This data is stored exclusively on your device using encrypted local storage. It is never transmitted to our servers, never uploaded to any cloud, and never shared with any third party by us.

  • Financial or payment information

3. In-App Purchases

A one-time or subscription purchase that removes all Google AdMob advertisements from the app. After purchase:

  • No ads are displayed in the app
  • AdMob ceases ad-related data collection for your session
  • The upgrade is linked to your Google Play account and can be restored after reinstalling

Credits

Sahita uses a credits system to unlock premium features including detailed compatibility reports, extended match history, and advanced dosha analysis. Credits are purchased in packs via Google Play Billing.

  • Credits balance is stored locally on your device
  • Credits are non-refundable once consumed within the app
  • Unused credits can be restored using the “Restore Purchases” option in the app on the same Google Play account

Billing and Payments

All payments are processed by Google Play Billing. We do not see, store, or process your payment card or bank details. For refunds, contact Google Play support: support.google.com/googleplay/answer/2479637

We do not request access to camera, microphone, contacts, location, SMS, call logs, storage, or any other sensitive device data.

5. Third-Party Services

Google AdMob (Free Users Only)

Free users see ads served by Google AdMob. AdMob independently collects device identifiers (such as Advertising ID) and usage signals to serve personalised or contextual ads. Users who purchase the Ad-Free Upgrade are not served ads and AdMob does not collect ad-related data for those users.

Opt out of personalised ads: Android Settings → Google → Ads → “Opt out of Ads Personalisation” (or “Delete advertising ID” on Android 12+)

AdMob / Google Privacy Policy: policies.google.com/privacy

Google Play Billing

In-app purchases (Ad-Free Upgrade, Credits) are handled by Google Play Billing. All payment processing is managed by Google. We receive confirmation of purchase but no payment details.

Google Play Terms: play.google.com/about/play-terms

Google Fonts

The app loads fonts from Google Fonts servers, which may log your IP address when fonts are fetched.

6. Data Storage and Security

All kundali data, match history, preferences, and credits balance are stored locally on your Android device using encrypted storage:

  • Your data does not leave your device
  • We cannot remotely access, view, or modify your data
  • Your data is not backed up to any cloud service by us
  • Data is encrypted at rest on your device
  • All network communication (for ads and purchases) uses HTTPS encryption

Purchase records (Ad-Free Upgrade, Credits) are managed by Google Play and can be restored via your Google Play account after reinstall.

7. How to Delete Your Data

You are in full control of all data stored by the Sahita app:

  • Delete individual kundali profiles: Open app → tap profile → Delete
  • Clear match history: App Settings → Clear History
  • Clear all app data: Android Settings → Apps → Sahita → Storage → Clear Data (this also resets local credits balance)
  • Delete everything permanently: Uninstall the Sahita app

Note on Credits: Clearing app data removes your local credits balance. You can restore unused credits by tapping “Restore Purchases” in the app after reinstalling, provided you use the same Google Play account.
