Introduction

Nammude Radio ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application ("App") and related services (collectively, the "Service"). The App is designed for Malayalee youth, providing access to Malayalam songs, local news, and emerging talents through online radio streaming.

By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

Personal Information

  • Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your email address, username, and password. Optional details may include your name, age range (to confirm you're at least 13 years old), location (e.g., city or state for personalized content like local news), and profile picture.
  • User-Generated Content: If you participate in community features (e.g., chats, song requests, or submitting mixes from local talents), we collect your messages, shouts, and uploaded content.
  • Contact Information: If you contact support or provide feedback, we collect your email and any details you share.

Non-Personal Information

  • Usage Data: We automatically collect information about how you interact with the App, such as pages viewed, songs played, playlists created, time spent listening, search queries, and features used (e.g., offline downloads).
  • Device Information: Details like your device type, operating system, IP address, browser type, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information.
  • Analytics Data: Aggregated data on app performance, crashes, and user trends via third-party tools (e.g., Google Analytics or Firebase).
  • Location Data: If you enable it, we may collect approximate location to tailor content (e.g., US time zone-adjusted shows or local Kerala news relevant to pravasi users in Texas).

We do not collect sensitive personal information such as financial details, health data, or precise geolocation without your explicit consent.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

  • Provide and improve the Service: Personalize playlists, recommend Kerala hits or local talents, enable offline mode, and facilitate community interactions.
  • Deliver content: Stream Malayalam songs, local news updates, and youth-focused shows.
  • Communicate: Send push notifications about new features, app updates, or song requests (you can opt out).
  • Analyze and enhance: Understand user behavior to optimize the App, fix bugs, and develop new features like AI recommendations.
  • Ensure security: Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or unauthorized access.
  • Comply with legal obligations: Respond to lawful requests or protect our rights.

3. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it in these limited ways:

  • Service Providers: With third-party vendors who help us operate the App (e.g., hosting providers like AWS, analytics tools like Firebase, or streaming services). They are bound by confidentiality and can only use data for our purposes.
  • Legal Requirements: If required by law, subpoena, or government request, or to protect safety and rights.
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred.
  • Aggregated Data: We may share anonymized, aggregated data (e.g., listener trends) with partners or advertisers.
  • For features involving third-party integrations (e.g., social sharing), your data may be shared with those platforms per their policies.

4. Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures, including encryption, firewalls, and access controls, to protect your information. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection against unauthorized access.

5. Your Rights and Choices

  • Access and Update: You can review and edit your account information in the App settings.
  • Delete Account: Contact us to request account deletion; we'll remove your data within a reasonable time, subject to legal retention requirements.
  • Opt-Out: Disable push notifications or location services in your device settings. For marketing emails, use the unsubscribe link.
  • California Residents (CCPA): If applicable, you have rights to know, delete, and opt-out of data sales. We do not sell data, but you can submit requests via support@nammuderadio.com.
  • EU/UK Residents (GDPR): You have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or port your data, and object to processing. We process data based on consent or legitimate interests (e.g., providing the Service).
  • To exercise rights, email support@nammuderadio.com with "Privacy Request" in the subject.

6. Children's Privacy

The App is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If we learn of such collection, we will delete it promptly. For users 13-18, we encourage parental involvement.

7. International Data Transfers

As a US-based app (operated from Texas), your data is stored and processed in the US. If you're outside the US, your data may be transferred to the US, where privacy laws differ. By using the App, you consent to this transfer.

8. Third-Party Links and Services

The App may link to third-party sites (e.g., music licensing partners or social media). We are not responsible for their privacy practices—review their policies.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy periodically. Changes will be posted in the App with the new effective date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
