Effective Date: August 17, 2026

Welcome to Shrutam AI, operated by VitragVani [Shree Kundkund-Kahan Parmarthik Trust, Mumbai] and Developed and Managed by ASTUTE GROUP, INDORE (AstuteVani) [M-AdCall Digital Media Pvt Ltd, part of Astute Group of Companies] ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share your information when you use our mobile application (the "App") and our related website services.

1. Information We Collect

• Account Information: When you register or log in using third-party services like Google, we collect your name, email address, profile picture, and an encrypted password.
• Guest Data: If you use Guest Mode, we generate a temporary, anonymous identifier to manage your current session.
• Chat History & Swadhyay Data: We store the questions you ask the AI and the generated responses to maintain your conversation history and allow you to revisit your studies.
• Device & Technical Information: We may collect standard browser data, IP addresses, operating systems (iOS/Android), and device types to ensure the app functions correctly across all platforms.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To securely create and manage your account, including facilitating the "Sign in with Google" authentication process.
• To provide, personalize, and improve the Shrutam AI responses and Library search features.
• To maintain your persistent login state and save your Swadhyay chat history.
• To facilitate the "Joint Swadhyay" (collaboration) feature when you choose to share a chat with another user.
• To ensure platform security and prevent abuse.

3. Cookies and Web Storage

The Shrutam AI app uses secure cookies and local web storage strictly for functional purposes. For example, we use a "Remember Me" cookie to keep you logged in across sessions and a "Guest ID" cookie to track anonymous sessions temporarily. We do not use third-party tracking cookies for targeted advertising.

4. Third-Party Services and Data Sharing

Your spiritual queries are private. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or chat histories to third parties. Information is only shared in the following ways:

• Google (Authentication): We use Google to securely authenticate your login. Google's use of your data is governed by their respective Privacy Policy.
• User Sharing: With other users only if you explicitly use the "Joint Swadhyay" share feature.
• Legal Requirements: If required by law or to protect the safety and rights of our platform and its users.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. Passwords are cryptographically hashed, and our database is secured against unauthorized access. However, please note that no internet transmission is 100% secure, and we advise keeping your account credentials confidential.

6. Data Retention and Your Rights

You have the right to access, edit, or delete your personal information. You can delete individual chat sessions directly from the Chatbot sidebar. We retain your data only for as long as your account is active. To request the complete deletion of your account and all associated personal data, please contact us at the email provided below.

7. Disclaimer

Shrutam AI is an automated digital assistant designed for Swadhyay. It is not a substitute for the guidance of true Gurus and Scholars. Seekers must verify all AI-generated output with authentic Shastras (scriptures).
