This Privacy Notice for Babul Raj Singh ('we', 'us', or 'our') describes how and why we might access, collect, store, use, and/or share ('process') your personal information when you use our services ('Services'), including when you:
Questions or concerns? Reading this Privacy Notice will help you understand your privacy rights and choices. We are responsible for making decisions about how your personal information is processed. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Services. If you still have any questions or concerns, please contact us at support@haripin.com.
This summary provides key points from our Privacy Notice. Each point points to the section below where you can find the full detail.
What personal information do we process? When you visit, use, or navigate our Services, we may process personal information depending on how you interact with us and the Services, the choices you make, and the products and features you use. See section 1.
Do we process any sensitive personal information? Some information is considered 'special' or 'sensitive' in certain jurisdictions — for example your racial or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, or religious beliefs. We do not process sensitive personal information.
Do we collect any information from third parties? We do not buy or otherwise collect personal information from data brokers. If you choose to sign in with Google, we receive limited profile information from Google — see section 8.
How do we process your information? We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our Services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. We may also process your information for other purposes with your consent. We process your information only when we have a valid legal reason to do so. See section 2.
In what situations and with which parties do we share personal information? We may share information in specific situations and with specific third parties. See section 4.
How do we keep your information safe? We have adequate organisational and technical processes and procedures in place to protect your personal information. However, no electronic transmission over the internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. See section 11.
What are your rights? Depending on where you are located geographically, the applicable privacy law may mean you have certain rights regarding your personal information. See sections 13, 15 and 16.
How do you exercise your rights? The easiest way to exercise your rights is to email us at support@haripin.com. We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
In Short: We collect personal information that you provide to us.
We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you register on the Services, express an interest in obtaining information about us or our products and Services, when you participate in activities on the Services, or otherwise when you contact us.
The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and the Services, the choices you make, and the products and features you use. The personal information we collect may include:
You can use Vishram as a guest without creating an account. As a guest, your library, badges, region and settings are stored only on your device.
Sensitive information. We do not process sensitive information.
Payment data. Vishram does not currently offer in-app purchases, and we do not collect payment information. If we introduce purchases in the future, payments will be handled by Google Play, and we will update this Privacy Notice before doing so.
Google sign-in data. You can register or log in with your Google account instead of an email address and password. If you choose to do this, we receive limited profile information from Google, as described in section 8.
This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our application, for troubleshooting, and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes.
All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete, and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information.
In Short: When you use the app, we automatically collect information about how it is used and about any crashes or errors, using PostHog.
Vishram uses PostHog for product analytics and for crash and error reporting. This helps us understand which parts of the app people use, find what is confusing or broken, and fix problems. When you use the app, we may collect:
A few things we want to be clear about:
Our use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
In Short: We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our Services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law.
We process your personal information for a variety of reasons, depending on how you interact with our Services, including:
We may also process your information for other purposes only with your prior explicit consent.
In Short: We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason (i.e. legal basis) to do so under applicable law — like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services, to enter into or fulfil our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfil our legitimate business interests.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information. We may rely on the following:
We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.
In some exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent, including, for example:
We may disclose de-identified information for approved research or statistics projects, subject to ethics oversight and confidentiality commitments.
In Short: We may share information in specific situations described in this section and with the third parties listed below.
Vendors, consultants, and other third-party service providers. We may share your data with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents ('third parties') who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. We share only the information each provider needs to perform its service for us.
The third parties we may share personal information with are:
We also may need to share your personal information in the following situations:
In Short: We are not responsible for the safety of any information that you share with third parties that we may link to, but who are not affiliated with us.
The Services may link to third-party websites, online services, or mobile applications that are not affiliated with us. Accordingly, we do not make any guarantee regarding any such third parties, and we will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by the use of such third-party websites, services, or applications. The inclusion of a link to a third-party website, service, or application does not imply an endorsement by us. We cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of data you provide to any third-party websites. Any data collected by third parties is not covered by this Privacy Notice. We are not responsible for the content, or the privacy and security practices and policies, of any third parties. You should review the policies of such third parties and contact them directly with your questions.
In Short: We use limited on-device storage to keep the app working, and an analytics SDK that stores a random identifier to measure how the app is used. We do not show ads or use advertising identifiers.
Vishram stores information on your device so we can keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and keep your library in sync. Some of this storage helps us maintain the security of our Services and your account, prevent crashes, fix bugs, and support basic app functions. This storage is essential to running the app.
Vishram includes the PostHog SDK for product analytics and crash reporting (see section 1). The SDK may store and use a random identifier on your device to recognise app sessions and measure how the app is used. This analytics identifier is not used by Vishram for advertising or to track you across other companies' apps or websites for advertising purposes.
Vishram does not show advertisements and does not use your device's advertising identifier.
In Short: No. Vishram does not currently offer features powered by artificial intelligence or machine learning.
Features such as Surprise Me pick titles using the app's own recommendation and random-selection logic, not artificial intelligence or machine learning models. If we introduce AI-powered features in the future, we will update this Privacy Notice to describe them.
In Short: If you choose to register or log in with your Google account, we receive limited profile information from Google.
Our Services let you register and log in with your Google account. Where you choose to do this, Google shares your basic profile information with us: your name, your email address and, where your Google account has one, your profile picture. We use your email address to identify your account, and your Google account name as the default display name, which you can change. We do not receive your contacts, friends list, or other information from your Google account.
We will use the information we receive only for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice, or that are otherwise made clear to you on the relevant Services. Please note that we do not control, and are not responsible for, other uses of your personal information by Google. We recommend that you review their privacy notice to understand how they collect, use, and share your personal information, and how you can set your privacy preferences on their sites and apps.
In Short: We may transfer, store, and process your information in countries other than your own.
Our servers are located in India. Regardless of your location, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored by, and processed by us in our facilities, and in the facilities of the third parties with whom we may share your personal information (see section 4), including facilities in the United States and other countries.
In particular:
If you are a resident in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or Switzerland, then these countries may not necessarily have data protection laws as comprehensive as those in your country. However, we will take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Notice and applicable law.
In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice unless otherwise required by law.
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us to keep your personal information for longer than the period of time in which you have an account with us.
You can delete your account from the app's settings. Here is what happens:
If you use Vishram as a guest, your library and settings are stored only on your device. Analytics recorded while you use the app as a guest is associated only with a random guest identifier, not with an account. Delete Guest Data removes guest data from your device and starts a new random analytics identity; analytics already recorded under the previous random identifier is not linked to you and is not deleted. Uninstalling the app removes everything Vishram stores on your device.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise such information. If this is not possible — for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives — then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organisational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.
In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from, or market to, children under 18 years of age or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction.
We do not knowingly collect, solicit data from, or market to children under 18 years of age or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction, nor do we knowingly sell such personal information. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or the equivalent age as specified by law in your jurisdiction, or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to that minor's use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under 18, please contact us at support@haripin.com.
In Short: Depending on your state of residence in the US, or in some regions such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), Switzerland, and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information. You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time, depending on your country, province, or state of residence.
In some regions (like the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure, (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information, (iv) if applicable, to data portability, and (v) not to be subject to automated decision-making. If a decision that produces legal or similarly significant effects is made solely by automated means, we will inform you, explain the main factors, and offer a simple way to request human review. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You can make such a request by contacting us using the details in section 18.
We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
If you are located in the UK and are unhappy with how we have handled your personal information, you can make a complaint directly to us. This is in addition to the rights you have under the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018.
To contact us, email support@haripin.com, or write to the postal address in section 18.
After you complain:
If you are not happy with our final response, you can refer your complaint to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK supervisory authority:
If you are located in the EEA or UK and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your Member State data protection authority or the UK data protection authority. If you are located in Switzerland, you may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner.
If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information — which may be express or implied consent depending on the applicable law — you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can do this by contacting us using the details in section 18.
Please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal, nor, where applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
You can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications at any time by contacting us using the details in section 18. You will then be removed from our marketing lists. However, we may still communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.
If you would at any time like to review or change the information in your account, you can do so in the app. You can change your display name and region at any time; your username cannot be changed once set.
You can delete your account from the app's settings. Delete Account disables your account immediately, and you can restore it by signing in within 60 days. After 60 days, your profile and synced account data are permanently deleted, along with the analytics profile linked to your account. We keep the email address of a deleted account as a record of the deletion. Section 10 explains what is kept and what is deleted in full.
You can clear the data Vishram stores on your device by clearing the app's storage or uninstalling the app. Clearing this data may sign you out and reset your preferences. Signing out, or using Delete Guest Data as a guest, starts a new random analytics identifier (see section 6).
We rely on legitimate interests for product analytics and crash reporting (see section 3). Vishram does not currently have an in-app setting to turn analytics off. If you want to object to this processing, or ask us to delete analytics linked to your account, email us at support@haripin.com.
If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights, you may email us at support@haripin.com.
Most web browsers, and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications, include a Do-Not-Track ('DNT') feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has been finalised. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice.
California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognising or honouring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time.
In Short: If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, or Virginia, you may have the right to request access to and receive details about the personal information we maintain about you and how we have processed it, correct inaccuracies, get a copy of, or delete your personal information. You may also have the right to withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal information. These rights may be limited in some circumstances by applicable law.
The list below shows the categories of personal information we have collected in the past twelve (12) months. The examples are illustrative and do not necessarily reflect the specific personal information we collect from you. For a comprehensive inventory, see section 1.
We may also collect other personal information outside of these categories where you interact with us in person, online, or by phone or mail in the context of receiving help through our customer support channels, participating in customer surveys or contests, and the delivery of our Services and responses to your inquiries.
We will use and retain the collected personal information as needed to provide the Services, or for as long as you have an account with us (categories A, F, and G), subject to the account-deletion process described in section 10.
Learn more about how we use your personal information in section 2, and about the parties we share it with in section 4. We disclose personal information to our service providers only so they can provide their services to us.
We do not show advertisements, and we do not sell personal information or share it for targeted advertising.
We may use your personal information for our own business purposes, such as undertaking internal research for technological development and demonstration. This is not considered 'selling' of your personal information.
We have not sold any personal information to third parties for money in the preceding twelve (12) months. We have disclosed the following categories of personal information to third parties for a business or commercial purpose in the preceding twelve (12) months:
You have rights under certain US state data protection laws. However, these rights are not absolute, and in certain cases we may decline your request as permitted by law. These rights include:
Depending upon the state where you live, you may also have the following rights:
To exercise these rights, email us at support@haripin.com, or write to us at the postal address in section 18.
Under certain US state data protection laws, you can designate an authorised agent to make a request on your behalf. We may deny a request from an authorised agent who does not submit proof that they have been validly authorised to act on your behalf in accordance with applicable laws.
Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine that you are the same person about whom we have information in our system. We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes.
If you submit the request through an authorised agent, we may need to collect additional information to verify your identity before processing your request, and the agent will need to provide written and signed permission from you to submit the request on your behalf.
Under certain US state data protection laws, if we decline to take action regarding your request, you may appeal our decision by emailing us at support@haripin.com. We will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including a written explanation of the reasons for the decision. If your appeal is denied, you may submit a complaint to your state attorney general.
California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the 'Shine The Light' law, permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes, and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing using the contact details in section 18.
In Short: You may have additional rights based on the country you reside in.
