Privacy Policy for Happinity

Effective Date: 27-Oct-2024

1. Data Collection and Use

We collect data to enhance our app’s functionality, ensure security, and improve the user experience. The types of data collected and how they are used are outlined below.

1.1 User Accounts

For user authentication and secure access to our services, we use Firebase Authentication by Google. Firebase stores user account information, including email addresses and other necessary details, to ensure identification and security.

1.2 Usage Data

We collect app usage data using Firebase Analytics, including information about actions taken within the app (such as listening to tracks, favorite selections, and app navigation) as well as technical data (such as device type and OS version). This data is aggregated and anonymized to help us improve the app and personalize the user experience.

1.3 User Preferences and Customization

We store user preferences, such as preferred language settings, saved tracks, and recently played content, to personalize and simplify user interaction with the app. This data helps streamline user experience and maintain preferences across sessions.

1.4 Data on Listening Progress

We track and store user progress on audio tracks, including playback position and recently accessed tracks, to provide seamless resume functionality and history for convenience. This information is available only to the user and is used solely within the app environment.

2. Data Security

We implement reasonable measures to protect user data from unauthorized access, alteration, and disclosure. Firebase Authentication is utilized for secure access and to manage user sessions. However, no method of transmission or storage can be fully secure. Users are encouraged to keep their authentication details private and secure.

3. Data Retention

We retain user data only for as long as necessary to provide services and as permitted by law. Specific retention periods include:

Personal Information: Retained as long as the user has an active account or as needed for legal and operational purposes. Users may request deletion of their data at any time by contacting us.
Preferences and Listening Data: Data such as saved tracks, progress, and preferences are stored to facilitate user experience. These data will be deleted upon account deactivation or user request.

4. Data Sharing with Third Parties

We do not share personal data with third parties except as necessary to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, or utilize Firebase services by Google. Firebase may collect and process data according to the Google Privacy Policy.

5. User Rights

We respect the rights of users concerning their data. Users have the right to:

Access Data: Request details about the data we hold.
Delete Data: Request deletion of personal data, preferences, and listening history by contacting us at privacy@happinity.life.
Manage Account: Users can delete their account, which will remove all associated data, including listening history, preferences, and personal information.
