PraniQ is designed as a private, offline-first breathing companion. Your privacy is fundamental to how this app is built. We aim to minimise data collection, keep your experience private, and leave your practice under your control.
1. Overview
PraniQ does not require you to create an account, log in, or provide personally identifiable information to use the app. You can download and begin your practice immediately, entirely anonymously.
2. Information We Collect
We do not collect personally identifiable information. We do not know who you are, your name, or your email address.
To ensure the app functions properly and to help us fix bugs, we may automatically collect limited, anonymised data, including:
- App usage events: Such as app opens, session duration, and the types of breathing techniques selected.
- Device-level information: Such as your device model, operating system version, and app version.
- General location: Country-level or region-level data only (we do not collect precise GPS location).
This data is collected via standard analytics tools, specifically Google Firebase Analytics.
3. How We Use Information
The limited, non-personal data we collect is used strictly for legitimate developmental purposes:
- To understand aggregate app usage and user flows.
- To improve features, app performance, and user experience.
- To identify, diagnose, and fix crashes or technical issues.
We explicitly do not:
- Sell or rent your data to any third party.
- Track you across other apps or websites.
- Build advertising profiles or serve you targeted ads.
4. Offline Functionality & Local Storage
PraniQ is designed to work fully offline. The core of your practice—your session histories, custom timing preferences, and specific breathing configurations—remains stored locally on your device. It is not transmitted to, or stored on, any external servers controlled by us.
5. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not share any personal data with third parties because we do not collect it. However, the anonymised analytics data mentioned above is processed by trusted service providers (e.g., Google Firebase) solely to provide usage insights and crash reporting. These providers are bound by their own strict privacy policies and data protection standards.
6. Data Security
We take reasonable and industry-standard measures to protect the data handled within the app. Because your personal practice data remains on your device, you retain ultimate control over your information. Deleting the app from your device will delete your locally stored configurations and session history.
7. Children’s Privacy
PraniQ is designed for general audiences and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone including children.
8. Medical Disclaimer
PraniQ is a wellness and breathing companion tool; it is not a medical device or application. The app does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. It is intended for general wellbeing and personal breathing practice only. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before beginning any new breathing regimen, especially if you have a pre-existing medical or respiratory condition.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or regulatory requirements. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date at the top. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
