The operator of Mwachangu("we", "our", or "us") operates the Mwachangu mobile application (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the storage and handling of information when you use the Service.
By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
1. Information Storage and Use
We do not require you to create an account or log in. You may use the Service without logging in.
If you use the Service as a guest, the salary, allowances, and deductions you enter are processed locally on your device to calculate your take-home pay and are not stored on our servers.
If you choose to log in or create an account, we store the basic information associated with your account and information you enter or generate during your use of the Service, solely to provide and maintain the login feature, perform the take-home pay calculation, and save your calculation records. This basic information includes:
- the salary, allowances, and deductions you enter;
- the calculated take-home pay results;
- your account identifier;
- login credentials stored in a protected form;
- your in-app basic use-settings.
We do not use this information for advertising, analytics, profiling, or any purpose unrelated to providing the Service. We do not sell or share this information with third parties.
All calculations are performed on your device. If you are logged in and use account-related features, the information you enter and the calculation results may be stored in association with your account to provide the calculation and record features.
2. No Device Information Collection
We do not collect or obtain device information. This includes, but is not limited to, device name, device model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, advertising identifiers, IP address, mobile network information, or similar device-related data.
We do not use fingerprinting or similar tracking technologies to collect information about you.
3. No Third-Party Data Collection
The Service does not use third-party analytics, advertising, crash reporting, tracking, or data collection software. We do not integrate third-party SDKs for the purpose of collecting personal data.
4. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the basic information stored for logged-in users, including the salary, allowances, deductions, and calculated take-home pay results, from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is absolutely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
5. Data Retention
We retain the information for logged-in users, including the salary, allowances, deductions, and calculated take-home pay results, only for the time necessary to provide the login, calculation, and record features, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
If the Service provides an in-app account or record deletion feature, you may use it to delete your account and associated stored basic information.
6. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.
If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes.
We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. Changes are effective immediately after they are posted.
