Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Artha Solutions handles information for our websites, apps, and services, including the Svadharma app.

Last updated: 2 July 2026

1. Scope

Artha Solutions (“Artha,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) provides technology services, websites, mobile applications, AI-enabled tools, and support. This Policy applies to our public website and our applications, including Svadharma.

Svadharma is an AI-powered Hindu scripture and reflection companion. It may process user questions, spiritual reflections, voice transcripts, language preferences, saved content, and app activity in order to provide responses and features.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide

  • Name, email address, support messages, and contact details when you reach out to us.
  • Account information if you create an account.
  • Questions, prompts, journal entries, Dharma Check-In reflections, saved answers, preferred language, and app preferences.
  • Feedback, reports, and ratings about AI-generated answers.

Voice and microphone information

If you use voice features, the app may access your microphone with your permission and convert speech to text so that Svadharma can respond. We do not intend to store raw voice recordings unless a feature clearly says so and you consent.

Device, usage, and diagnostics

  • App version, device type, operating system, approximate region, IP address, log data, and crash reports.
  • Usage events such as feature opens, playback selections, saved items, and error events.
  • Notification preferences if you enable reminders.

Payments

If paid features are offered, payments may be processed by Apple, Google, or another payment provider. We do not receive full card numbers from app store payment processors.

3. How we use information

  • Provide, operate, personalize, and improve our services.
  • Generate AI responses, scripture explanations, Dharma Check-In reflections, and sacred sound recommendations.
  • Save user preferences and content when the user chooses to save them.
  • Provide support, troubleshoot problems, prevent abuse, and improve safety.
  • Comply with legal obligations and app store requirements.
  • Send service messages or reminders if enabled by the user.

4. AI and spiritual reflections

Important: Svadharma is an AI dharmic guide inspired by Hindu wisdom. It is not a real Guru, priest, doctor, therapist, lawyer, astrologer, or final spiritual authority.

AI responses may be incomplete, inaccurate, or culturally limited. Users should verify important scripture references and consult qualified human experts for serious spiritual, ritual, medical, legal, mental health, family, or safety matters.

Do not share information in the app that you do not want processed for the purpose of generating a response. We design sensitive features such as Dharma Check-In to be private and respectful, but users should still use care when entering personal details.

5. How we share information

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with:

  • Service providers that help us host, secure, analyze, support, or deliver our services.
  • AI infrastructure providers or local/private model infrastructure used to generate responses.
  • App stores, payment processors, and platform services when needed for subscriptions, purchases, crash reporting, or notifications.
  • Authorities or other parties when required by law, to protect rights, or to respond to safety issues.
  • Successors if there is a merger, acquisition, or reorganization of our business.

6. Your choices and controls

  • You may choose not to create an account where account creation is optional.
  • You may disable microphone access, notifications, or other permissions through your device settings.
  • You may delete saved chats, saved reflections, and app history where the app provides those controls.
  • You may request deletion of personal data by using our data deletion page or contacting info@arthasolutions.net.

7. Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this Policy, including providing the service, maintaining security, resolving disputes, complying with law, and supporting users. Saved app content may be retained until the user deletes it or asks us to delete it, subject to legal and operational limits.

8. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children

Our services are not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate consent, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

10. International use

Users may access our services from different countries. Information may be processed in countries other than the user’s country of residence, where data protection laws may differ.

11. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date will show the latest version. Material changes may be communicated through the website, app, or other appropriate means.
