2. Apple App Store Privacy Nutrition Labels

In accordance with Apple App Store Guideline 5.1.1 (Data Collection and Storage), VeloCalc declares the following privacy labels:

Data Used to Track You:
None. We do not link user data with third-party data for targeted advertising without opt-in consent.

Data Linked to You:
None. We do not maintain accounts, profiles, or user identity records.

Data Not Linked to You (Ad-Supported Free Tier Only):
Diagnostics / Device ID: Resettable Advertising Identifier (IDFA) and crash diagnostics processed exclusively by Google AdMob SDK if advertisements are active.

3. Operating System Manifest Permissions Analysis

VeloCalc requests an exceptionally low permission profile. The table below lists every permission declared in AndroidManifest.xml and Info.plist:

Permission	Protection Level	Exact Justification & Usage
`android.permission.VIBRATE`	Normal	Enables short (10–15ms) haptic feedback when pressing numeric and operator keypad buttons. User can disable this in Settings.
`android.permission.INTERNET`	Normal	Allows the application to fetch public benchmark foreign currency exchange rates and load ad creatives in the free version.
`android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE`	Normal	Monitors connectivity to prevent currency fetch timeouts and ensure seamless offline calculator fallback.

4. Storage & Encryption Architecture

VeloCalc leverages the host operating system's native hardware security architecture:

Android Application Sandbox (UID Separation): On Android, VeloCalc runs as a distinct Linux User ID (UID). File system permissions prevent any other application on the device from accessing VeloCalc's internal files.
iOS Data Protection (Keychain & File Protection): On iOS, files are stored within the sandboxed application container and encrypted at rest using Apple's hardware-backed Data Protection API.
Zero Remote Cloud Backups: Calculation data is never transmitted to third-party databases, eliminating remote data breach or credential leak risks.

5. PDF Cache & File Handling Lifecycle

When generating calculation reports (such as Loan Amortization schedules, SIP Wealth statements, or GST summaries):

PDFs are generated 100% on-device into temporary cache storage.
Files are named securely using random UUIDs and isolated to the app's cache directory.
Files in the cache directory are automatically eligible for eviction by the operating system when disk space is constrained, and can be manually cleared by the user at any time.

6. Data Deletion Assurance

Because VeloCalc does not store user data on remote servers, data deletion is instant and irrevocable:

In-App Tape Erasure: Tap the "Clear All History" icon in the calculation history tape drawer.
Operating System Wipe: Clear Storage in Android / iOS Application Settings.
App Uninstallation: Deleting the app immediately destroys 100% of stored preferences and files.
