Vulgata ("Vulgata", "we", "us", "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains how Vulgata collects, uses, stores, discloses and protects information when you use the Vulgata mobile application ("App").

Vulgata is operated from Australia.

By using Vulgata, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. What Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how you use Vulgata and which features you choose to use.

A. Information You Provide

Depending on the features available in the App, you may provide information such as:

• Your name or display name

• Email address

• Account information

• Personal notes

• Journal entries

• Book of Shadows entries

• Spell or ritual notes

• Progress-tracking information

• Personal intentions or reflections

• Other information you voluntarily enter into the App

You are not required to provide personal information that is not necessary for a particular feature.

B. Subscription Information

Vulgata offers optional Premium Membership subscriptions.

Subscriptions are purchased through Apple App Store or Google Play.

Apple and Google process payments for purchases made through their respective platforms. Vulgata does not directly receive or store your full credit-card or debit-card number through the App.

We may receive information necessary to determine whether your subscription is active, expired, cancelled, or otherwise associated with your Vulgata account.

This may include information such as:

• Subscription status

• Product or subscription identifier

• Purchase date

• Renewal status

• Expiration date

• Transaction or purchase identifiers

Payment processing and certain transaction information are handled according to the privacy policies and terms of Apple and Google.

2. Information Collected Automatically

When you use Vulgata, certain technical information may be collected automatically by Vulgata or by third-party services used to operate the App.

Depending on the services implemented in the App, this may include:

• Device type

• Operating system

• App version

• Language or regional settings

• IP address

• Device identifiers

• Approximate location derived from technical information

• Crash reports

• Diagnostic information

• App performance information

• Information about how features are used

We use this information primarily to:

• Operate the App

• Maintain security

• Diagnose technical problems

• Improve performance

• Understand how users interact with the App

• Fix crashes and errors

• Improve the App and its features

We will not use precise location information unless the App specifically requests permission for such functionality.

3. Book of Shadows and Personal Notes

Vulgata may provide a Book of Shadows or similar journaling feature allowing you to record your own experiences, observations, reflections, spell notes, ritual notes and other personal content.

You decide what information to enter.

Because these entries may contain personal or sensitive information, we recommend that you do not enter information that you do not want stored or processed by the App.

Your personal entries may be stored on your device or on servers used to provide the relevant Vulgata functionality, depending on the version and features of the App.

We do not use your private journal or Book of Shadows entries for advertising purposes.

We do not sell your personal notes or journal entries.

4. How We Use Your Information

We may use information we collect to:

1. Provide and operate Vulgata.

2. Create and manage user accounts.

3. Provide Premium Membership functionality.

4. Verify subscription status.

5. Provide the Book of Shadows and other personalised features.

6. Save user-created content where the relevant feature requires storage.

7. Maintain and improve the App.

8. Diagnose crashes and technical problems.

9. Protect the App against fraud, abuse and security threats.

10. Respond to support requests.

11. Communicate with you about your account or the App.

12. Comply with legal obligations.

13. Enforce our Terms of Use.

14. Improve the safety, functionality and reliability of Vulgata.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

5. Analytics

We may use analytics and diagnostic technologies to understand how Vulgata is used and to identify technical problems.

Depending on the services integrated into the App, analytics information may include:

• App interactions

• Feature usage

• Session information

• Device information

• Crash information

• Performance information

• General geographic or regional information

Analytics are used to help us understand and improve the App.

If third-party analytics services are implemented, their collection and processing of information will also be subject to their respective privacy policies.

Important: Our Google Play Data Safety declaration and Apple App Store privacy disclosures will be updated to accurately reflect the analytics services actually integrated into the released version of Vulgata. Google requires the Data Safety information to match the app's actual data practices, including third-party SDKs.

6. Advertising

At the time this Privacy Policy was published, Vulgata is not intended to sell users' personal information to advertisers.

If advertising is introduced into Vulgata in the future, this Privacy Policy and the relevant App Store privacy disclosures will be updated before or when the relevant functionality is introduced, as required by applicable law and platform policies.

7. Third-Party Services

Vulgata may use third-party services to provide, maintain and improve the App.

These services may include:

• Apple App Store

• Google Play

• Cloud hosting or database providers

• Authentication providers

• Analytics providers

• Crash-reporting services

• Customer-support services

• Other technical service providers necessary to operate Vulgata

Third-party providers may process information on our behalf or independently according to their own privacy policies.

Apple requires App Store privacy disclosures to account for third-party partners whose SDKs or services collect data.

We aim to use reputable service providers and require appropriate privacy and security protections where reasonably practicable.

8. Apple App Store and Google Play

Vulgata may be distributed through:

Apple App Store

and

Google Play

Apple and Google may independently collect information in connection with downloading, installing, purchasing or using applications and subscriptions through their platforms.

Their handling of information is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms.

Vulgata does not control the privacy practices of Apple or Google.

9. Premium Subscriptions

Vulgata offers an optional Premium Membership.

Premium Membership is an automatically renewing subscription.

Subscription payments are processed by the relevant platform:

• Apple App Store; or

• Google Play.

We may receive information necessary to verify and manage your subscription, such as your subscription status and transaction identifiers.

We do not need your full payment-card details to provide the subscription service.

You can manage or cancel your subscription through the relevant Apple or Google subscription-management system.

For more information about the subscription itself, please see our Terms of Use.

10. Information Sharing

We may disclose personal information to third parties where reasonably necessary to provide Vulgata or where permitted or required by law.

This may include:

Service providers

We may share information with companies that provide services such as:

• Cloud hosting

• Database storage

• Authentication

• Analytics

• Crash reporting

• Customer support

• Subscription verification

• Technical infrastructure

These providers are only given information reasonably necessary for the services they provide.

Legal requirements

We may disclose information where required or authorised by law, including in response to:

• Court orders

• Legal proceedings

• Government requests

• Regulatory requirements

• Fraud investigations

• Security investigations

Business changes

If Vulgata is involved in a merger, acquisition, sale, restructuring or transfer of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable privacy laws.

11. Overseas Disclosure

Because Vulgata may use international technology and service providers, your personal information may be processed or stored outside Australia.

Depending on the providers actually used by Vulgata, information may be processed in countries including Australia, the United States and other countries in which our service providers operate.

The precise countries may change as our technology providers change.

Where required by Australian privacy law, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate protections are applied to overseas disclosures.

Australian privacy rules require privacy policies to explain whether overseas disclosure is likely and, where practicable, identify the countries involved.

12. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against:

• Misuse

• Interference

• Loss

• Unauthorised access

• Unauthorised modification

• Unauthorised disclosure

Depending on the information and service involved, security measures may include:

• Encryption during transmission

• Access controls

• Authentication controls

• Secure server infrastructure

• Restricted administrative access

• Security monitoring

• Backup and recovery procedures

However, no electronic storage or transmission system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You should also protect your device, account credentials and access to Vulgata.

13. How Long We Keep Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

The retention period depends on the type of information.

For example:

Account information
May be retained while your account remains active.

Subscription information
May be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to manage subscriptions, accounting, legal and regulatory obligations.

Book of Shadows / personal notes
May be retained while required to provide the relevant feature or until you delete the information or request account deletion, subject to technical and legal requirements.

Technical and diagnostic information
May be retained for a reasonable period necessary to diagnose problems, maintain security and improve the App.

When information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to delete it, anonymise it or securely dispose of it.

14. Deleting Your Account and Personal Information

You may request deletion of your Vulgata account and associated personal information.

To request deletion, contact:

info@connectct.com.au

Please include:

Subject: Vulgata Account Deletion Request

and provide enough information for us to identify your account.

Where applicable, we will delete the personal information associated with your account, subject to information that we are legally required or permitted to retain.

Google Play requires apps that provide account creation to provide users with a clear mechanism for requesting account deletion and associated data deletion.

Important

Deleting your Vulgata account does not necessarily cancel your Apple or Google subscription.

You must separately cancel an active subscription through the relevant Apple or Google subscription-management system.

15. Accessing and Correcting Your Information

Under applicable Australian privacy law, you may request access to personal information we hold about you.

You may also request that inaccurate or incomplete information be corrected.

To make a request:

Email: info@connectct.com.au

We may need to verify your identity before providing access to or changing personal information.

Australian Privacy Principle 12 provides rights concerning access to personal information, while APP 13 addresses correction.

16. Anonymity and Pseudonyms

Where reasonably practicable, you may interact with us anonymously or using a pseudonym.

However, certain functions may require identification.

For example, we may need an identifiable account to:

• Provide account-based services

• Manage Premium Membership

• Respond to account-specific requests

• Process account deletion requests

Australian privacy law recognises anonymity and pseudonymity subject to applicable exceptions.

17. Children's Privacy

Vulgata is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children where such collection is prohibited by applicable law.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate authorisation, please contact:

info@connectct.com.au

We will assess the request and take appropriate action where required.

18. Sensitive Information

Some information users voluntarily enter into Vulgata may potentially contain sensitive personal information.

For example, users may choose to write personal information about their beliefs, relationships, wellbeing, experiences or other matters in their Book of Shadows or notes.

We do not require you to enter such information to use general Vulgata content.

Please do not enter sensitive personal information unless you are comfortable with it being stored and processed as described in this Privacy Policy.

19. No Sale of Personal Information

Vulgata does not sell personal information to third parties.

We may, however, disclose information to service providers where reasonably necessary to operate the App, provide services, maintain security, process subscriptions, analyse performance or comply with legal obligations.

Such disclosures are not intended to constitute a sale of your personal information.

20. Your Privacy Choices

Depending on the features available in Vulgata, you may have choices concerning:

• Whether to create an account

• Whether to use Premium

• What information you enter into your Book of Shadows

• Whether to provide optional information

• Whether to enable certain device permissions

• Whether to continue using particular optional features

• Whether to request access to your information

• Whether to request correction

• Whether to request account deletion

You can contact us at info@connectct.com.au if you need assistance exercising these rights.

21. Device Permissions

Vulgata may request certain device permissions where required for particular functionality.

Examples could include access to:

• Notifications

• Photos or files

• Camera

• Microphone

• Other device features

We will only request permissions needed for features that use them.

You can manage permissions through your device settings.

If a permission is not actually used by the final version of Vulgata, it should not be declared in the App Store or Google Play disclosures.

22. Cookies and Websites

Vulgata may provide links to websites or online resources.

Those websites may use cookies or other technologies according to their own privacy policies.

This Privacy Policy does not govern third-party websites.

Our Privacy Policy itself will be made available through a publicly accessible webpage.

Google requires the Privacy Policy URL provided for Play to be active, publicly accessible, readable in a standard browser, and not provided solely as a PDF.

23. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

When we make changes, we will update the Last Updated date at the top of this document.

If significant changes are made, we may also provide additional notice through the App or another appropriate method.

You should periodically review this Privacy Policy to remain informed about how Vulgata handles information.
