Privacy Policy

Effective Date: February 28, 2026

Introduction

This Privacy Policy applies to the YakshaDhwani (also known as Prasanga Prati Sangraha) Android application and corresponding web application (collectively, the "Service"). The Service provides access to Kannada Yakshagana audio recordings, literature, and updates.

Your privacy is important to us. This document explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.

Information Collection and Use

The Service acts as a digital library and audio player. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not actively collect personal identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, or phone number to use the core features of the app.

Data Collected Automatically

When you use the Service, some information may be collected automatically by third-party services integrated into the app (such as Google Play distributions or web hosting), including:

Third-Party Services

The Service retrieves data (audio links, text, and metadata) directly from external sources:

These third-party providers may collect access logs or IP addresses as part of their standard operation when your device requests data from their servers. We do not control the privacy practices of these third-party services.

How We Use Your Information

Any automatically collected anonymous data is used exclusively for:

Data Storage and Security

We value your trust in using our Service. Since the app functions primarily as a read-only client and stream player, no sensitive user data is stored on our servers. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect anonymous data, please remember that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

Links to Other Sites

This Service may contain links to other websites (such as Telegram groups, YouTube channels, or external websites). If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. Note that these external sites are not operated by us. Therefore, we strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of these websites. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Children's Privacy

The Service provides cultural content and is safe for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by publishing the new Privacy Policy on this page or within the app. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
