AURA ECHOES: BIBLE CHOICES ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy while you explore the spiritual depths of the Bible. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application ("App").

🔒 Local-First Privacy: Your spiritual journey, choices made within stories, and personal reflections are stored exclusively on your device. We do NOT upload your personal narrative choices to our servers.

1. Information We Collect

AURA ECHOES collects minimal data necessary to provide an immersive and personalized biblical experience:

1.1 Narrative Choices (Client-Side)

What we collect: The paths you choose within biblical stories (e.g., choosing a protagonist or observer role).
Why we need it: To progress the interactive narrative and show you results based on your decisions.
How it's stored: Locally on your device. This data is never transmitted to our servers for profiling.

1.2 App Progress & Achievements

What we store: Unlocked stories, relics collected, and chapter progress.
How it's stored: Locally on your device using encrypted storage.

1.3 Device Identifiers & Purchase Data

Device ID: We use non-persistent, platform-specific device identifiers (such as IDFV for iOS or Android ID) solely to authenticate API requests and manage your subscription status. This identifier is NOT used for advertising or cross-app tracking.
Purchase History: When you subscribe to Pro or Ultra, we process your purchase verification data (transaction token, product ID, expiry date) through Apple/Google servers to validate your access. We do NOT store your payment card details.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

❌ We do NOT collect your real name, physical address, or phone number.
❌ We do NOT record your private prayers or reflections.
❌ We do NOT sell your spiritual profile or choice history to third parties.
❌ We do NOT use invasive tracking or third-party advertising cookies.

3. How We Use Information

We use the local data to:

Personalize the "Aura Pulse" experience.
Ensure theological accuracy matching based on your verse references.
Improve the interactive narrative engine through anonymized usage patterns (if opt-in).

4. Data Storage and Security

All personal data is stored in the App's private, encrypted storage area. If you uninstall the App, all locally stored narrative progress and choice history will be permanently deleted from your device.

5. Children's Privacy

AURA ECHOES is designed to be a safe environment for exploring biblical truths. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 without parental supervision. The interactive nature of the app is intended for educational and spiritual reflection.
