Your information is used solely for providing the Indic Tales app experience. We may share anonymized, aggregated data for analytics purposes, but this data cannot be used to identify you personally.

Children's Privacy

Indic Tales contains family-friendly content suitable for all ages, featuring stories from Indian history and mythology. However, since the app requires account sign-in to save preferences and reading activity, users under the age of 13 should use the app with parental guidance and supervision.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental consent. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

You have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate data
Request deletion of your account and associated data
