1. What we collect and why

| Profile: name, date of birth, gender, height, weight, target weight, city (optional), body measurements (optional), activity level, fitness level, goals, food preferences | When you set up or edit your profile | To calculate your daily targets (steps, water, calories) and personalise the app. |

| Technical data stored on your phone | Always | App settings and a local copy of your data so the app works offline. |
We do not use your data for advertising and we do not sell it. The app shows no ads.
2. Camera, location, notifications, activity and health permissions
The app asks for permissions only for the features that need them: physical activity (step counting), location (GPS activities), camera or photos (profile picture), notifications and exact alarms (reminders and wake-up alarms), battery settings (to keep step counting running), and Health Connect (optional watch data). If you decline a permission, the rest of the app still works.
3. Where your data is stored
Your account and data are stored with Google Firebase (Authentication and Cloud Firestore) on Google's servers, and in the app on your phone. Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). We use Google Firebase as our service provider; it processes data on our behalf. Your data is linked to your phone-number account.
4. Who can see your data
- You.
- Your friends see only the profile details and feed items you choose to share in the friends features.
- A small number of authorised BodyGyaan staff (for example support or administrators) can view your account data in our admin panel to help you, keep the service running and handle requests. Their access is limited by role and the changes they make are logged.
- Google, as our hosting and authentication provider.
- Authorities, if the law requires.
We do not share your health data with advertisers or data brokers.
5. How long we keep it
We keep your data while your account exists. When you delete your account, we delete your profile, logs and photo from our servers and your phone (see section 6). Copies of messages you sent to support and items that friends received in their feeds may remain until we delete them. Backups may take up to 30 days to clear.
6. Your choices and rights

- Disconnect Health Connect or any permission in your phone's settings.
- Access or correct your data, or raise a concern: write to bradvicesolutionspvt@gmail.com. Under Indian law you may also have the right to complain to the Data Protection Board of India.
