This Privacy Policy explains how Morning Pirith (“the App”) accesses, uses, stores and shares information on Android and iOS devices.
Morning Pirith allows users to schedule alarms and wake up while listening to selected Pirith chanting. This policy describes the App’s privacy practices and the choices available to users.
Morning Pirith does not require users to create an account or directly provide their name, email address, telephone number or other contact details.
The following information may be stored locally on your device:
Alarm times and schedules
Selected Pirith tracks
Playback duration
Notification and alarm settings
App preferences and settings
This information is used to provide the App’s alarm, notification and audio features. It is not transmitted to servers operated by Studio Picts.
Depending on your device settings, locally stored App data may be included in backups managed by Apple, Google or your device manufacturer. Those backups are governed by the relevant provider’s privacy policy.
You can delete individual alarms and settings within the App. On Android, you can also clear the App’s storage. On Android or iOS, uninstalling the App removes its locally stored application data from the device, subject to any backups controlled by the operating-system provider.
Morning Pirith uses Google AdMob and the Google Mobile Ads SDK to display advertisements.
The Google Mobile Ads SDK may automatically collect, process or share information such as:
Internet Protocol address, which may be used to estimate a device’s general location
App interactions, including app launches, taps, video views and advertisement interactions
Crash logs, diagnostic information and performance information
Device identifiers, such as the Android advertising ID, App Set ID, Apple Identifier for Advertisers where available and permitted, or other app- or developer-scoped identifiers
Advertising data, such as advertisements displayed to or interacted with by the user
Information used for advertisement measurement, security and fraud prevention
Google may use this information to provide and measure advertisements, improve advertising services, perform analytics, diagnose technical problems, and prevent fraud or misuse.
Advertisements may be personalised, non-personalised or limited depending on your location, consent choices, age-related settings, device settings and the App’s advertising configuration.
Studio Picts does not directly sell personal information for monetary payment. However, disclosures to advertising providers may be considered a “sale,” “sharing” or targeted advertising under the laws of some jurisdictions. Where required, privacy choices will be provided through the App or through Google’s consent platform.
Information processed by Google is governed by Google’s policies:
Morning Pirith uses Google’s User Messaging Platform to manage advertising privacy choices where required.
Users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, Switzerland and other applicable regions may be shown a privacy message before advertisements are requested. Depending on the available choices, users may be able to:
Consent to eligible advertising data processing
Decline consent
Manage advertising purposes and advertising partners
Change or withdraw previous consent choices
When required, a Privacy options control will be available within the App so users can review or change their advertising privacy choices. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
If consent is not provided, the App may display non-personalised or limited advertisements where permitted. In some circumstances, advertisements may not be available.
On iOS, access to Apple’s Identifier for Advertisers and tracking across other companies’ apps or websites is controlled separately through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency system. Where such permission is required, the App or relevant SDK must obtain Apple’s permission before accessing the identifier. Users can manage tracking permissions through Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
On Android, users can manage advertising privacy and reset or delete their advertising identifier through the device’s privacy or advertising settings. Available settings vary by Android version and device manufacturer.
Depending on the Android version and device, Morning Pirith may request or use:
Notifications: To display alarm and reminder notifications.
Alarms and reminders or exact-alarm access: To activate alarms at the selected time.
Foreground service and wake lock: To activate and play the selected Pirith track reliably.
Start on device boot: To restore scheduled alarms following a device restart.
Internet and network access: To request and display advertisements through Google AdMob.
Depending on the iOS version and device, Morning Pirith may request or use:
Notifications: To display scheduled alarm notifications.
Background audio or background-execution capabilities: To support the App’s permitted alarm and audio functionality.
Internet and network access: To request and display advertisements through Google AdMob.
Tracking permission: Only if a version of the App uses functionality requiring permission under Apple’s App Tracking Transparency rules.
Morning Pirith does not use the microphone to record or listen to users. The App does not require access to contacts, photographs, the camera or precise device location for its normal alarm and Pirith playback features.
General location may nevertheless be estimated by Google using an Internet Protocol address without requesting the device’s precise-location permission.
Information handled through the App or its advertising provider may be used to:
Schedule and activate alarms
Display alarm notifications
Remember selected settings
Play the selected Pirith track
Display and measure advertisements
Manage privacy and consent choices
Monitor performance and diagnose technical problems
Maintain security and prevent advertising fraud, spam and misuse
Comply with legal and regulatory obligations
Where applicable under UK or European data-protection law, information may be processed on the following bases:
Consent: Where consent is required for personalised advertising, device storage or access, or related advertising technologies.
Legitimate interests: Where permitted, for operating and securing the App, diagnosing technical problems, providing non-personalised advertising and preventing fraud or misuse.
Legal obligations: Where processing or disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation or a valid legal request.
Where processing is based on consent, users may withdraw that consent through the App’s Privacy options control when available.
Google determines the lawful bases applicable to information that it processes for its own purposes, as described in Google’s privacy documentation.
Studio Picts does not operate a user-account system or backend database for storing users’ alarm schedules, selected Pirith tracks or App preferences.
Information may be transmitted to Google and its service providers through the Google Mobile Ads SDK for advertising, advertisement measurement, analytics, security, diagnostics and fraud-prevention purposes.
Information may also be disclosed when reasonably necessary to:
Comply with a law, regulation, court order or valid governmental request
Protect the rights, safety or property of users, Studio Picts or others
Investigate fraud, abuse, security incidents or violations of applicable terms
Alarm schedules, track selections and preferences remain locally on the device until they are changed or deleted, the App’s storage is cleared on Android, or the App is uninstalled.
Because Morning Pirith does not provide user accounts or store this information on Studio Picts-operated servers, Studio Picts normally has no corresponding online account or server record to delete.
Information collected by Google is retained in accordance with Google’s own retention policies. Users can use the App’s Privacy options control, Google privacy controls and device advertising settings to manage relevant choices.
Reasonable technical measures are used to protect information associated with the App. App preferences are stored using storage provided by the Android or iOS operating system.
Communications with third-party advertising services use the security measures provided by those services and the operating system. However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Morning Pirith is intended for a general audience and is not specifically directed to children under the age of 13.
The App does not require children or other users to create an account or directly submit personal information. Advertising services may process limited device, advertising and usage information as described in this policy.
Parents or guardians who believe that information relating to a child has been processed improperly should contact Studio Picts using the email address below.
Google and its service providers may process information in countries other than the country where the user lives.
International processing and any associated transfer safeguards are governed by Google’s applicable privacy policies, contractual arrangements and legal obligations.
Depending on your location and the applicable law, you may have rights relating to personal information, including rights to:
Request access to personal information
Request correction or deletion
Request restriction of processing
Object to certain processing
Request data portability where applicable
Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent
Complain to an appropriate data-protection authority
Because Studio Picts does not maintain user accounts or a backend database containing alarm information, Studio Picts may not hold information that can be identified as belonging to a particular user.
For information processed by Google, users may need to exercise their rights through Google’s privacy controls or by contacting Google.
Users in the United Kingdom may complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office:
https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/data-protection-complaints/
Users in the European Economic Area may also contact the data-protection authority in the country where they live or work.
This Privacy Policy may be updated when the App’s functionality, third-party services, data practices or legal requirements change.
Updates will be published on this page with a revised effective date. Users should review this policy periodically.
