Privacy Policy — Hymnals App
This Privacy Policy explains how the Nketa 8 Baptist Church Hymnals mobile application ("App") handles information.

1. Who we are
2. Scope of this policy
This policy applies to the App as distributed through mobile application stores and any updates to the App. It does not cover unrelated websites or services.
3. Summary (plain language)
4. Information we collect
The App is designed to operate without collecting personal information.
We do not require you to submit personal information (such as your name, email address, phone number, home address, national ID, or payment details) to use the App.
The App is suitable for all ages, including children. The App does not include features intended to collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App, contact us and we will take steps to remove it.
We do not build the App to collect analytics by default. However, your device or the app store may collect certain information as part of standard platform operations (for example, crash reports or basic diagnostics). This information is controlled by the platform and your device settings.
5. How we use information
Because the App does not intentionally collect personal information, we generally do not have personal information to use. If we receive diagnostic information (for example, through a crash report), we use it only to:
6. Payments, donations, and money
The App does not process payments, subscriptions, or donations inside the App. The App must not be used for money-related transactions.
7. Permissions and device access
The App may request limited device permissions only when needed to provide core features.
8. Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell personal data. We do not share personal information with third parties because we do not intentionally collect it. If standard platform diagnostics are enabled, the platform provider may process diagnostics under their own policies.
9. Data retention
Because we do not intentionally collect personal data through the App, we do not maintain a personal data retention schedule. Any diagnostic reports retained by platform providers follow their retention policies.
10. Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the App and its content. No method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, but we aim to minimize risk by using standard security practices and limiting data collection.
11. Your choices & rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your information. Since the App is designed to not collect personal information, most requests will not apply. If you contact us and provide personal information by email, you may request deletion or correction of that email information.
12. Third-party services
The App may contain links to external websites (for example, a church website or developer website). If you open a third-party link, their privacy practices apply.
13. International users
The App may be used in different countries. The App is designed to minimize data processing. Any platform-level processing (such as crash reporting enabled on your device) may involve international data transfers under the platform provider’s policies.
14. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above.
