A product byAbout this policy
MyCircle is a product of RXCHARTSQUARE. This product website is hosted on zathurasolutions.com; Zathura Solutions is a subsidiary of RXCHARTSQUARE. This policy explains how the Android app handles contact information, photos used for scanning, reminders, and optional Google Drive backups. For privacy questions, contact info@rxchartsquare.com.
Your diary and phone contacts
The app stores the names, phone numbers, email addresses, postal addresses, personal dates, notes, groups, custom fields, reminders, and profile details that you enter on your device. It uses these records to provide the diary, search, grouping, reminders, and sharing features. If you choose to import phone contacts, Android Contacts permission is requested. Imported records remain in MyCircle if you later revoke that permission. MyCircle does not automatically synchronize edits back to your phone address book.
Voice notes, speech to text, and photos
Microphone access is requested when you choose to record a voice note. Saved recordings and note text are stored in the private diary on your device and included in optional Google Drive backups. Speech to text opens the speech-recognition service selected on your phone. That service may send your speech to its provider for processing under its own privacy policy; MyCircle receives the resulting text. MyCircle does not record phone calls. Contact photos and your visiting-card logo are selected through the system image picker, stored with your diary or profile, and included in optional backups. Sharing a visiting card may include your selected logo. Delete notes, recordings, or photos in the app; delete older Drive backups separately to remove saved copies.
Visiting-card scanning
You choose an image through the system picker or take a photo using your camera app. The bundled Google ML Kit model recognizes text on the device. The image and recognized text are not uploaded for recognition. Temporary scanning copies are removed after processing where possible; an interrupted scan may leave cached files until another scan or cache cleanup. Gallery originals remain unchanged. Review recognition results before saving. Saved contact details become diary data and are included in optional backups.
Google account and Drive backup
Google connection is optional. MyCircle uses your Google account email to identify the account used for backup and stores that account reference in protected local storage. Google provides authorization tokens so the app can communicate with Drive; the app does not receive your Google password. The app requests the drive.appdata permission to create, list, read, and delete its backups in your private application-data folder. It does not request access to your general Drive documents.
When you choose backup—or enable automatic backup—your diary and profile are uploaded to your chosen Google account. Restore downloads a selected backup to your device. Internet access and valid Google authorization are required. Signing out stops the app’s automatic backup connection but does not delete existing Drive backups. You can remove backups in Backup & restore and revoke the app’s connection through your Google account settings.
MyCircle’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. Google user data is used for the backup and restore features described here, not for advertising, sale, data brokerage, or training general-purpose AI models.
Reminders and selected sounds
Reminders use the details you save and Android’s notification and alarm services. A sound file you select is copied into private app storage for playback. Audio files are not included in Drive backups; choose a sound again after restoring on another device. Clearing the app’s storage removes these local copies.
Google services, diagnostics, and purchases
Google ML Kit collects operational information such as device and app information, per-installation identifiers, and performance and usage metrics. These diagnostics do not include the scanned card image or recognized text. See Google’s ML Kit data disclosure and Google’s privacy policy.
If Premium purchases are available, Google Play processes payment. The configured purchase-verification service receives the package name, product identifier, and purchase token to validate entitlement. It does not receive the diary as part of purchase verification. Payment information is handled by Google Play rather than entered into MyCircle. Operational processing by Google and any deployed verification infrastructure is subject to their applicable service practices.
Retention and deletion
Your diary remains on your device until you remove records or clear the app’s storage. Uninstalling normally removes app-local storage, subject to Android’s device backup and restore settings. Existing Google Drive backups remain until separately deleted. Before restoring a backup, MyCircle saves one local safety copy; a subsequent restore replaces that copy. You can remove it from Backup & restore or by clearing app storage. Deleting a contact locally does not remove earlier backups containing that contact. Delete those backups separately if needed.
Security and your choices
Local records are kept within Android’s application storage. Google authorization is handled through Google’s sign-in and authorization services, and network requests to Google use HTTPS. No storage or transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure. Protect your device and Google account, review permissions, and only store information you are entitled to use. You can use the local diary without connecting Google, revoke optional permissions, disconnect Google, or delete data as described above.
