Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Mechanical Engineering Notes - BTech ("we", "our", or "the app"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting user data. This Privacy Policy outlines how our Android mobile application handles information.

2. Information Collection & Data Storage

Our application functions primarily offline to provide a seamless study environment for engineering students:

• No Personal Identifiers: We do not ask for or collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or account credentials.
• 100% On-Device Local Data: All subject bookmarks, formula preferences, and calculation logs are saved strictly on your local device via Room Database.
• No Analytics or Tracking: We do not integrate third-party tracking software or advertising SDKs that gather user device telemetry.

3. Device Permissions & Purpose

The app requests minimal Android system permissions strictly necessary for core educational features:

• INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Used solely to fetch syllabus PDF reference handbooks hosted on secure HTTPS servers.
• Storage Access Framework (SAF): Used exclusively to let you browse and link local PDF study notes stored on your device.

4. Data Safety & Security

Because all data remains on your physical Android device, your study material and app preferences are secure. All network calls to fetch public engineering handbooks use encrypted HTTPS protocol.

5. Children's Privacy

Our application is an academic study companion intended for university, college, and diploma engineering students (ages 13 and above). We do not knowingly collect any data from children.

6. Policy Updates & Contact

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect app enhancements. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
