Mobile App Privacy Policy Section

Here is the additional section that can be added to the privacy policy to cover the mobile app usage:

Mobile App Data Collection and Permissions

This privacy policy applies to both our website and our mobile applications available on iOS and Android. When you use our mobile apps, we collect certain data to enhance your experience and ensure the app's functionality. The following describes the permissions and data collection practices specific to our mobile applications.

1. Permissions Used by the Mobile App

Our mobile apps may request the following permissions from your device:

• ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows the app to access information about network connections, such as whether a device is on Wi-Fi or mobile data. This helps us optimize your experience based on network connectivity.
• RECEIVE_SMS: Enables the app to receive SMS messages, which may be used for authentication or verification processes.
• INTERNET: Required for accessing and communicating with our servers to provide you with up-to-date content and services.
• READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE / WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows the app to read and write files to your device's external storage, which may be used for downloading, saving, or sharing content.
• DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION: Allows the app to download files in the background without sending a notification to the user.
• POST_NOTIFICATIONS: Allows the app to send push notifications directly to your device, keeping you informed about updates, promotions, and important account activities.
• CAMERA: Required to enable camera access within the app, allowing you to take photos or scan barcodes/QR codes for certain features.
• Location and Map Services: We use location services to enhance the app's functionality (like location-based services) using Google Maps API. Location data may be used to provide directions, display your location, or suggest nearby options.

2. Data Usage and Sharing for the Mobile App

• Data collected by the app: When using the app, we may collect information about your device, app usage patterns, and any data you explicitly provide (e.g., profile information, messages).
• Third-Party Services: The app may use third-party service providers for analytics, authentication, and other functionalities. Data shared with these services will only be used for providing and enhancing the services offered by the app and will be handled in compliance with applicable privacy laws.
• Security: The app uses industry-standard security measures, including SSL encryption and secure data storage, to protect your data from unauthorized access or breaches.

3. User Control and Data Management

• Updating Permissions: You can manage the app permissions through your device settings at any time. Disabling certain permissions might affect the app's functionality.
• Data Retention: The app stores data only for as long as necessary to provide the services and in accordance with legal and business requirements.
• Data Deletion: If you choose to delete your account, all personal data stored by the app will be removed within a maximum period of 365 days, unless otherwise required by law.

4. Platform-Specific Considerations

• iOS and Android Differences: The data handling practices mentioned apply equally to both iOS and Android platforms, with minor differences depending on the operating system's privacy settings and permissions structure.
• Do Not Track Signals: The app does not respond to "Do Not Track" signals due to the lack of an industry-standard for mobile apps.

5. Push Notifications

The mobile app may send you push notifications to alert you about new features, promotions, and other relevant information. You can control these notifications through your device's settings.

6. Location Data

The app may collect location data if you allow it to do so through your device settings. Location data helps us provide location-based services and suggestions. You can turn off location tracking at any time through your device settings.

7. Queries Regarding Mobile App Data
