Privacy, clearly explained.

Our privacy principles

• We do not sell personal data or use it for cross-app or cross-site advertising tracking.
• No account or login is required for Stellara or Hindu.
• Private content stays on your device unless a feature clearly explains that it needs a network service and you choose to use that feature.
• Apple or Google processes purchases. We receive only the transaction information needed to validate and restore access, never your payment-card details.

Stellara: birth details and your journal

Stellara asks for a profile name, birth date, birth time, and birthplace so it can calculate your chart. These birth details, the calculated chart, and anything you write in the journal are stored on your device. Stellara has no account or login and does not upload your raw birth record to create a server profile. You can export a readable copy or use Me → Privacy → Delete everything to erase the profile, journal, and settings.

Stellara: Lumo and third-party AI

When you ask the in-app astrologer, Lumo, a free-text question, Stellara first presents a blocking consent screen. If you agree to cloud processing, the question you typed and the chart facts needed to answer it—such as placements, aspects, dignities, houses, and transits derived from your birth details—are sent to the Ario Apps service and then to the third-party AI service gpt.ge, which phrases the reply. Your profile name and private journal are not sent.

The question and chart facts are used only to answer that request. Ario Apps does not retain them as a stored profile or use them for identification, advertising, tracking, or model training. The third-party provider processes them on our behalf and is not permitted to use them for its own advertising or model training. If you decline, Stellara uses its available on-device answer path and does not transmit the question. Consent can be withdrawn in Settings. Please do not type health, financial, legal, or other identifying information into a Lumo question.

Stellara: content, diagnostics, and purchases

Stellara may fetch daily horoscope text written for a zodiac sign and may send limited diagnostics or anonymous feature events needed to understand reliability. These events do not include your profile name, raw birth record, journal, or Lumo question. Stellara Plus is an auto-renewing subscription processed by Apple. Ario Apps may receive product, transaction, entitlement, and anonymous install identifiers needed to validate purchases, restore access, prevent fraud, and provide Ario Pass benefits.

What Hindu keeps on your device

Hindu has no account or login. Your selected language and region, reading position, saved items, reminders, downloads, worship progress, deity or tradition choices, passages, prayer activity, and preferences remain on your device. Clearing the app's storage or uninstalling the app removes this local information.

Content, audio, and referrals

The app contacts Ario Apps or an authorized content provider to deliver the scripture, festival information, artwork, or audio you request. A random, app-specific install identifier and limited Play install-referrer details may be sent to Ario Apps to operate the optional referral reward, prevent abuse, and confirm reward eligibility. These identifiers are not used to infer religious belief or to track you across unrelated companies' apps.

Advertising and consent

Hindu uses Google Mobile Ads and Google's User Messaging Platform. Depending on your region and consent choices, Google may process an IP address (which can estimate approximate location), app interactions such as launches, taps, or video views, diagnostics such as launch time and hang rate, and device or advertising identifiers. This information is used for advertising, ad measurement, analytics, security, fraud prevention, and legal compliance.

Hindu does not provide Google Mobile Ads with the scripture you read, saved passages, prayer or reading activity, selected deity or tradition, or worship progress to choose or personalize advertising. Available ad privacy choices can be revisited from the app's Settings screen and Android system settings.

Permissions

Hindu may request notification permission only when you choose reminders. It does not request precise location. A state or region you select is used to bring relevant calendars, festivals, and content forward. Media or system-setting access is requested only when you choose a related feature, such as saving a ringtone or wallpaper.

Security and retention

Network traffic controlled by Ario Apps uses HTTPS encryption in transit. Purchase, entitlement, referral, and security records are retained only while needed to operate the service, investigate abuse, or meet accounting and legal obligations, then deleted or anonymized. Google handles advertising information under its own retention controls and privacy terms.

Your choices and deletion

You can clear local Hindu information from Android settings or by uninstalling the app. You can reset or delete the Android advertising ID through Android's privacy controls and revisit ad consent from Hindu Settings. In Stellara, use the in-app export and deletion controls or uninstall the app to remove local data. You can request deletion of Ario Apps server-side information through Delete Your Data.

Children

Hindu is intended for users aged 13 and over and is not designed for children under 13. We do not knowingly create accounts for or collect direct personal information from children through Hindu.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy as our apps, laws, or service providers change. The effective date above will be updated when changes are material. Contact support@arioapps.com for privacy questions.
