Privacy Policy
Japa Ananta

Welcome to Japa Ananta ("we", "our", "us").

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our mobile application.

Japa Ananta is a simple and spiritual japa counting app.

The app helps users count mantra repetitions using virtual beads, as shown in the interface. We do not collect personal data unless explicitly stated.

By using the app, you agree to the terms described in this Privacy Policy.

2.1 No Personal Data Collection

Japa Ananta does not require you to create an account or share personal information such as name, email, or phone number.

2.2 On-Device App Usage Data (Local Only)

The app may store simple data locally on your device, such as:

• Your daily japa count
• Your selected theme or mode
• Settings preferences (e.g., vibration, sound toggle, dark/light mode)

This data is stored only on your device and is never sent to us.

2.3 Advertising ID

If the app includes advertising services (such as Google AdMob), we or our advertising partners may collect and use your device's Advertising ID (Android Advertising ID or iOS Identifier for Advertisers) for the following purposes:

• To serve personalized advertisements
• To measure ad performance and effectiveness
• To prevent fraud and abuse
• To limit the number of times you see the same ad

The Advertising ID is a unique, resettable identifier that does not reveal your personal identity. You can reset or opt-out of personalized advertising through your device settings at any time.

Note: If you reset your Advertising ID, a new identifier will be generated, and you may see less relevant ads.

2.4 No Sensitive Data

We do not collect or store:

• Location data
• Contacts
• Photos
• Microphone or camera inputs
• Financial information

3.1 Local Data Usage

The app uses local storage to maintain japa counts and settings on your device. This data is never transmitted to us.

3.2 Advertising ID Usage

If advertising services are enabled in the app, we or our advertising partners may use your Advertising ID to:

• Deliver personalized advertisements based on your interests
• Measure ad performance and user engagement
• Prevent ad fraud and ensure ad quality
• Limit ad frequency and improve user experience

We do not use your information for:

• Analytics tracking (beyond ad performance)
• User profiling beyond advertising purposes
• Sharing personal information with third parties for non-advertising purposes

4.1 Advertising Services

Japa Ananta may use third-party advertising services, such as Google AdMob, to display advertisements in the app. These advertising services may:

• Collect and use your device's Advertising ID
• Use cookies or similar technologies
• Collect information about your device and app usage for ad targeting
• Share data with their advertising partners

These third-party services have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their policies:

• Google AdMob: https://policies.google.com/privacy

4.2 Other Third-Party Services

If we add other optional services in the future—such as crash analytics or cloud sync—we will update this Privacy Policy and request user consent where required.

Even though no personal data is collected:

• We ensure the app follows best practices
• Any local data stored on your device remains under your full control
• Uninstalling the app deletes all local data

Japa Ananta is safe for all ages.

We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13, as we collect no personal data at all.

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect improvements or added features in the app.

When we do, we will update the Effective Date at the top.

Continued use of the app after updates means you accept the revised terms.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, you may contact us:

We will respond to privacy-related questions as soon as possible.
