Last updated: November 5, 2026

1. Introduction & Overview

Welcome to Mahadev Wallpapers (“we”, “our”, or “the app”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through our adherence to this policy. This application provides high-quality spiritual wallpapers dedicated to Lord Mahadev, Shiva, Mahakal, and Bholenath.

This privacy policy explains how our app handles device permissions, user data, and offline caching when you use our mobile application available on the Google Play Store.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

Mahadev Wallpapers does not collect, log, transmit, or share any personal identifiable information (PII).

  • No Account Registration: You do not need to create an account, sign in, or provide any email address or phone number to use the app.
  • No Personal Data: We do not collect names, locations, contacts, photos, or personal files.
  • No Analytics or Tracking SDKs: We do not track your behavioral telemetry, GPS coordinates, or advertising identifiers.

3. Android Permissions & Justification

Our app adheres to the principle of least-privilege permission access in accordance with Google Play Developer Program policies. We request only the following normal/install-time permissions:

android.permission.INTERNET

Required solely to load high-resolution wallpaper images and retrieve updated sacred collection catalogs from our content distribution network.

android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE

Allows the application to check whether the device has an active internet connection before attempting to fetch new wallpapers or check for updates.

android.permission.SET_WALLPAPER

Required to enable you to apply your chosen Mahadev wallpaper directly to your device’s Home Screen, Lock Screen, or both screens upon your explicit request.

android.permission.SET_WALLPAPER_HINTS

Used by the Android WallpaperManager to optimize dimensions, aspect ratios, and wallpaper cropping across different device screen sizes and resolutions.

Zero Broad Storage Permissions: In strict compliance with Google Play Store policies, our app does not request READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE or WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE. All downloaded wallpapers and image caches are stored securely in app-specific internal storage directories.

4. On-Device Data Storage & Persistence

The application stores state entirely on your device using a local SQLite database (Android Room) and Jetpack DataStore:

  • Bookmarked Favorites: Wallpapers you favorite are recorded locally so you can browse them offline.
  • Downloaded Wallpapers: Wallpapers marked for offline viewing are downloaded to private app cache/storage.
  • User Preferences: Dark mode selection and language preferences (English, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, etc.) are saved locally.

None of this preference data ever leaves your device or is synced to any external server.

5. Third-Party Libraries & Image Delivery

The app utilizes open-source libraries to deliver a smooth and responsive experience:

  • Coil (Coroutine Image Loader) & OkHttp: Efficiently downloads and decodes wallpaper images with on-device memory and disk caching. Coil loads images over encrypted HTTPS connections.

We do not bundle any third-party behavioral advertising SDKs or data brokers.

6. Children’s Privacy (COPPA & Google Play Families)

Mahadev Wallpapers contains devotional and spiritual imagery suitable for all general audiences. We do not knowingly solicit or collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe any minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can verify and ensure no data exists.

7. User Control & Data Deletion

Because all data is stored on-device, you have 100% control over your data at all times:

  • Clear Cache: You can clear the wallpaper image cache directly within the app by navigating to Settings > Cache Management > Clear Cache.
  • App Data Removal: You can wipe all data, bookmarks, and preferences at any time through your Android device settings under Settings > Apps > Mahadev Wallpapers > Clear Data, or by uninstalling the application.

8. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our legal obligations, Android framework requirements, or Google Play policies. Any changes will be posted here with an updated “Last updated” timestamp.
