Privacy Policy
VastuGuru (Android app) · HouseofTech Innovation Pvt Ltd
Last updated: 30 August 2026
This policy covers the VastuGuru Android app
(com.houseoftech.vastuguru). The VastuGuru website is covered by a
separate policy; the two are different
services and do not share accounts or data.
What we collect
| Data | Why | Kept? |
|---|---|---|
| Mobile number | It is your account. We send a one-time code to it to sign you in. | Yes, until you ask us to delete it |
| Your name | Optional. Used only to address you in the app. | Yes, if you give it |
| Questionnaire answers | To compute your Vastu score and report. | Yes |
| Room photos / floor plan | Read once to work out what is in which direction. | No. The images are sent for analysis and discarded. We do not store them. |
| Your Vastu score and report | So you can open them again. | Yes |
| Messages you send to an expert | To answer you, and to keep the conversation going. | Yes |
| Payment records | Subscription status and receipts. | Yes |
| Advertising ID | To measure which advert led to an install. | Shared with Meta, see below |
What we never collect
We do not collect your location, contacts, calendar, files, microphone or call history. We never see or store your card number, UPI PIN or bank credentials — payments happen entirely inside Razorpay.
Who we share data with
- Google (Gemini) — your photos, floor plan or answers are sent to Google's Gemini API to be analysed. Google processes them to return a result and we do not permit their use for advertising.
- Razorpay — your mobile number, to create and manage the subscription and collect payment.
- Meta — your advertising ID and app events (install, registration, trial start, purchase) so we can measure advertising. You can reset or limit this identifier in your Android settings at any time.
- Persona API (also operated by HouseofTech) — your question and a summary of your Vastu report, so the expert can answer in context.
We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with anyone else.
Where your data lives
On Google Cloud servers in India (asia-south1), under our control.
Children
The app is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of your data, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete everything — see Delete your account. Write to support@houseoftech.ai and we will respond within 7 working days.
Changes
If this policy changes materially we will update this page and change the date above.
