Privacy policy

Signing in with Google

Reading and phone alerts need no account. You sign in to react 🙏❤️👏, comment, report or post on the village wall. When you sign in with Google, Google gives us only:

• your name
• your email address
• your profile photo
• an ID number, so we recognise you next time

What we never get

• Your Google password — you type it on Google's own page, never on our site.
• Your Gmail, contacts, Google Photos, Drive, phone number or location.
• Permission to post, send email or do anything as you.

What you choose to give

• “Where do you live?” — only if you fill it in.
• Photos, captions, the year of a photo and comments you post.
• The Send news form: your name, place, phone number (optional), message and photos. Only the village admins see these.

Your username and notifications

• You get a username made from your name (like @ravi.kumar) so others can tag you. You can change it from your account menu.
• When someone comments on your post or tags you, you see it under Notifications — and as a phone alert if you turned alerts on while signed in on that phone.
• Reactions count once per person, so they show how many people really reacted.

Who can see what

• Everyone: your name, photo and username next to your posts and comments, and the posts themselves.
• Only the main village admins: your email address and when you joined and last signed in.
• Nobody outside the admins ever gets your email or phone number from us.

Without signing in

• Phone alerts: your browser gives us an address to send alerts to. It contains no name or phone number. Turn alerts off any time.
• Your language choice and a few settings (like “don't show the app tip again”) are kept on your own phone.

Where it is kept

Everything is stored with Supabase on servers in Mumbai, India, and the website runs on Vercel. Google handles sign-in. We use no analytics or advertising services.

Your choices

• Delete any of your own posts yourself, from the ⋯ menu on the post.
• To delete your account and everything you posted, email ramannapeta.manavillage@gmail.com from the same Google email. We do it within 7 days.
• Disconnect the site from your Google account any time: Google Account → Security → Third-party apps & services.

Children

Please ask parents before posting photos of children, and do not post photos that show where a child can be found alone.
