Privacy Policy

Plain words about the little information the app uses. · गोपनीयता धोरण

थोडक्यात · In short

Last updated: 9 November 2026

1. Who we are

Chitpavan Calendar ("the app") is a community calendar for the Chitpavan Brahman Sangh, Belagavi ("the Sangh"). It is developed and published by Sarvadnya Patil ("we", "us"). You can contact us at email.

2. What the app does

The app shows a Marathi panchang calendar (tithi, nakshatra, festivals and muhurats), community events announced by the Sangh, and sponsor advertisements. It can send notifications about events and announcements.

3. Information we collect

Notes you write

If you add a note to a date, it is saved only on your device. It is never sent to us or to any server. We cannot see it.

Notification token

If you allow notifications, Google (Firebase Cloud Messaging) or Apple (Apple Push Notification service) gives your device a random technical token. We store this token on our server so we can send you the Sangh's announcements and event reminders. The token does not contain your name or contact details, and we do not link it to your identity.

Ad counts

When an advertisement is shown or tapped, we add one to a counter for that ad so the Sangh can tell sponsors how their ad performed. These are totals; they are not used to build a profile of you.

Technical logs

Like most online services, the servers that deliver calendar data and notifications keep standard technical logs (for example IP address, time of request and the type of device) for security and troubleshooting. We do not use these logs to identify individual members.

What we do not collect: precise or approximate location, contacts, photos, files, microphone or camera data, payment information, or advertising identifiers. The app does not use third-party analytics or third-party advertising networks.

4. How we use information

5. Who we share it with

We do not sell your information and we do not share it for advertising. We use the following service providers, who process data on our behalf to run the service:

We may disclose information if the law requires it.

6. Advertisements

The advertisements in the app are the Sangh's own: sponsors, member businesses and community services. Advertisers do not receive any information about you from the app. If you tap an ad, it may open the advertiser's phone number, website or map; what you do after that is between you and the advertiser.

7. How long we keep it

8. Your choices

9. Children

The app is a general community calendar and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Security

Data travels between the app and our servers over encrypted connections (HTTPS), and access to the admin tools is restricted to authorised administrators. No system is completely secure, but we work to protect the small amount of information we hold.

11. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy we will update the date above and, where the change is important, tell you in the app.

12. Contact

Questions about this policy or your data: email.
