1. Information We Collect

Information you provide

• Account information: your name, email address, and password when you register
• Birth data: your date of birth, time of birth, and city of birth — used solely to calculate your astrological chart and generate personalised guidance
• Personal context: optional information you provide such as life goals, wellness focus, and general life situation — used to personalise your guidance
• Sensitive flags: if you voluntarily indicate you are going through a difficult period — used only to ensure your guidance is written with greater care and sensitivity

Information collected automatically

• Usage data: pages visited, features used, and time spent on the site
• Device data: browser type, operating system, and IP address
• Registration IP: recorded at account creation to prevent abuse

Payment information

We do not store payment card numbers. For bank transfers, you may upload a receipt image or PDF containing transaction and bank details. We analyse that proof to verify the payment and may retain a copy in Google Drive for payment records, fraud prevention, support, and administrative audit.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To create and manage your account
• To calculate your personalised birth chart and generate astrological guidance
• To send daily horoscope emails (paid users only, if email delivery is enabled)
• To process subscription payments via your chosen payment provider
• To improve our service and fix issues
• To respond to your support requests
• To prevent fraud and abuse

We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your birth data for any purpose other than generating your astrological content.

3. AI-Generated Content and Cross-Border Processing

Your birth chart data and relevant personal context may be sent to OpenAI's API and Google's Gemini API to generate personalised readings, check translation quality, clarify Suba Nakatha requirements, and prepare Sinhala guidance. Payment-proof images or PDFs may be sent to OpenAI for extraction and verification. By using Zodovia, you consent to this cross-border processing where required for the service to function.

We transmit only the data necessary for the requested service. If you enter birth details for a spouse, partner, family member, or business partner, you confirm that you have their permission to provide those details for the astrology calculation.

4. Data Sharing

We share your data only with the following third-party service providers, and only to the extent necessary to deliver our service:

• OpenAI (USA) — to generate readings, assess Sinhala translations, provide fallback translations, and analyse payment proofs
• Google Gemini — to translate and refine Sinhala guidance and Suba Nakatha service requirements
• Google Workspace services — Google Apps Script/Sheets for service records, Google Drive for uploaded payment proofs, and Gmail for service emails
• Render (USA) — cloud hosting for the Zodovia application
• Meta — Meta Pixel events used to measure advertising and website conversions; these events may include browser/device identifiers and page or conversion activity

We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or any other third parties. All third-party processors are bound by their own privacy policies and applicable data protection laws.

5. Data Retention

We retain your account and birth data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by applicable law (including Sri Lankan law).

6. Your Rights under Sri Lanka's PDPA

Under the Personal Data Protection Act No. 9 of 2022 of Sri Lanka, you have the following rights regarding your personal data held by us:

• Right to Access: request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• Right to Rectification: request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
• Right to Erasure: request deletion of your account and associated personal data
• Right to Data Portability: request your data in a machine-readable format
• Right to Object: object to certain processing activities
• Right to Withdraw Consent: withdraw consent for optional data processing at any time

To exercise any of these rights, email us at zodovia.lk@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.

7. Browser Storage and Measurement Technologies

Zodovia uses essential browser local storage to keep you logged in. We also use Meta Pixel to measure page visits, registrations, checkout activity, and purchases for advertising effectiveness. Meta may use cookies or similar browser identifiers under its own privacy terms. Browser privacy controls, tracking protection, or ad-blocking tools may limit these measurements.

8. Security

We use industry-standard security measures including encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords (bcrypt), and secure cloud infrastructure. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, but we take reasonable precautions to protect your data.

9. Children's Privacy

Zodovia is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with their data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email or by posting a notice on our website. Continued use of Zodovia after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
