1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Mannadiar Media Pvt Ltd and its developer Kannan Kuttappan ("we," "us," or "our") collect, use, and handle your information when you use our application, "Direct Message" (the "Service").
Our Service is provided as a Free, ad-supported application. This page is used to inform you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information if you choose to use our Service.
By using our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. The information we collect is used for providing and improving the Service. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy is framed in view of India's Information Technology Act, 2000 and its associated rules.
2. Disclaimer of Association
We are an independent app and are not associated, affiliated, endorsed, or in any way officially connected with any messaging platform or its parent company. The names, marks, emblems, and images of other platforms are registered trademarks of their respective owners. Our Service is a standalone utility tool designed to facilitate direct messaging.
3. Information We Collect
To provide and improve our Service, we may collect the following types of information:
a) Information Processed Locally on Your Device
Many of our app's features process your data entirely on your device without it ever being sent to our servers. This includes:
Quick Reply Messages & Text Content: Any custom quick reply messages you create, edit, or save are stored locally on your device.
History of Unsaved Message Numbers: The list of numbers you have directly messaged through the app (which were not saved in your contacts) is stored locally on your device for your convenience.
We do not collect or store the content of your messages or the phone numbers you enter on our servers. All direct messaging actions are initiated from your device.
b) Information Collected Automatically
When you use our Service, we and our third-party partners may automatically collect certain information to help us understand usage, fix bugs, and serve advertisements. This includes:
Usage Data: Information about how you interact with our app, such as which features you use (e.g., using quick replies, initiating direct chats from call list), buttons you click, and the time you spend in the app.
Device Information: Your device model, operating system version, device language, and unique device identifiers (like the Advertising ID).
Crash and Performance Data (Log Data): In case of an app error, we collect diagnostic data through third-party services. This may include your device's IP address, device name, OS version, app configuration at the time of the error, and other statistics to help us fix the problem.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
Provide and maintain the Service: To enable features like direct messaging without saving contacts, quick replies, and accessing call history for messaging.
Improve and Personalize the App: To understand which features are popular and to fix bugs, crashes, and performance issues.
Display Advertising: To show relevant advertisements from our partners, which supports the app and keeps it free.
Communicate with You: To respond to your feedback, support requests, or inquiries.
Ensure Security and Compliance: To enforce our policies and comply with legal obligations.
5. Third-Party Services & Advertising
Our Service is supported by ads. We work with third-party advertising and analytics partners who may collect information to provide personalized ads and help us understand our users. These partners include, but are not limited to: Google AdMob, Facebook Audience Network, and Google Analytics for Firebase.
These third parties may use cookies, device identifiers, and similar technologies to collect information. Their data collection and use are governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them. You may be able to opt out of interest-based advertising through your device's settings.
6. Feature-Specific Disclaimers
a) Direct Message Feature
This feature is designed to help you open a chat with a number without first saving it to your contacts. We act only as a facilitator for this action.
No Data Storage: We do not save, store, or read the phone numbers you enter or the content of your messages on our servers. All message content and recipient numbers are handled by the native messaging application you choose to open.
Call History Access: The app requires access to your call history solely to present you with a list of numbers from which you can choose to initiate a direct message. This data is processed locally on your device and not transmitted to our servers.
7. Data Security and Retention
We value your trust and strive to use commercially acceptable means of protecting your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure and reliable, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We retain automatically collected data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy.
8. Children's Privacy
Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 13 (or 16 in the European Economic Area/UK). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so that we can take necessary action.
9. Your Data Rights
As most of the personal data is processed locally on your device, you can manage it directly within the app or your device settings. For any specific requests regarding data collected by our analytics and advertising partners, please contact us at games@mannadiarmedia.com.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. This page is the sole and official channel for communicating any changes. We will not provide individual notifications.
You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective immediately after they are posted on this page. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted will constitute your acknowledgment and acceptance of the modified policy.
