StudioPrabandha — Privacy Policy
Updated: 6 October 2026

Who operates StudioPrabandha
StudioPrabandha is provided by Binary Apple Systems, a partnership of Yaracharla Sujatha and Yaracharla Ramanjaneyulu. Website: https://www.binaryapplesystems.com. This policy describes the Android app; the website’s separate privacy policy applies to website browsing and store services.

Google sign-in and the free Photography Network
Network-enabled versions require Google sign-in and a working server connection to use Photography Network. Google and our Supabase authentication service process your account identifier, email address and authentication information. We do not receive your Google password. Signing in to the Network does not itself grant access to your Google Drive files; backup-folder permission is requested separately when needed for backup.

Photography Network is a free professional directory for people aged 18 or older, initially serving Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Creating a public profile is optional. When you submit a profile, Supabase stores your name, phone number, account-linked email, state, city, area, professional roles, experience, service areas, equipment description, any profile photo and portfolio links you provide, publication consent and review status. We also process reports, moderation decisions and notes, and profiles you choose to hide/block, to operate and moderate the directory.

After manual approval, signed-in Network users can see your name, photo, phone number, city/area/state, professional information, equipment description, portfolio links, verification status and any availability you choose to share. Your account email, private review notes and reports are not displayed in directory search results. Authorised moderators can review submitted profile details, email, reports and review history. Phone and email checks do not verify professional skills, equipment ownership or trustworthiness. Users can contact you using the published phone number; do not publish a phone number or photo without the person's permission. Other users may retain information they have seen.

Availability sharing is optional. You may enter busy dates yourself and, separately, choose to share busy dates from your My Studio photography bookings. This directory feature sends dates, sharing settings and update times, not customer names, prices, venues or job descriptions. Turning off Studio-date sharing clears that shared date set; manually entered dates remain until you change them. Availability can be out of date and must be confirmed directly. Private My Studio records are not made public by creating a Network profile. Team Portal sync and encrypted backup remain separate features.

Network contact and moderation
There is no in-app chat, Network booking service, commission or processing of payments between professionals. Tapping Call opens the phone dialer; you decide whether to place the call. Opening a portfolio link uses the relevant external service and its privacy practices. Reports and profile hiding/blocking help us moderate the directory. Hiding/blocking removes the profile from your own search results; it does not prevent off-app calls or promise that the other person cannot see your public profile.

Network retention and deletion
In your profile editor, use Hide my profile to withdraw it from directory results while retaining it for later editing. Delete my network profile removes the profile and its availability; it does not delete your Google-linked sign-in account, all moderation history, or other Studio data. A suspended profile requires support assistance for deletion. For full Network account deletion, email info@binaryapplesystems.com from the Google account used for sign-in, with the subject “StudioPrabandha account deletion request”, and state that you want your Network account and associated data deleted. The app's Account deletion & privacy support page opens this request in your email app. Verify the recipient and send it; merely opening the draft does not submit a request. Do not send a password.
We verify requests before processing them. Profile data is retained while the profile is in use or pending review. Reports, review notes and security records may survive profile deletion when needed to investigate abuse, resolve complaints or meet applicable legal obligations. They are restricted to authorised administration and must be reviewed for continued necessity; this release does not automatically erase Network moderation records on a fixed schedule. These Network records are separate from the access-service retention described below. Deleting Network data does not erase local Studio records, exported files, Drive backups, Team Portal data or copies held by other users, and does not cancel a Play subscription. Tell support which other cloud services you also want deleted.

Your studio records
StudioPrabandha stores customer and vendor names, phone numbers, enquiries, event schedules, quotations, invoices, payment and expense records, editing assignments, notes and your business profile in a local database on this device. Home expenses are separate from business profit. Primary records are stored on your device. The optional Team Portal uses Supabase to store selected account and project information described below. This version has no advertising SDK or analytics SDK. We do not sell your personal data.

Optional Team Portal
If you connect the Team Portal using an email sign-in link, Supabase processes your email address, account identifier and authentication information. Choosing to sync sends active project names, customer names and phone numbers, event dates, venues or editing file-location text, equipment, crew names and roles, status, and work instructions to your studio workspace. Authorised studio members can access that shared work information. Payments, profit, dues, home expenses, quotations and invoices are not included in this project sync. Cloud connections use encryption in transit. Team Portal data is not protected by your backup password. Team sign-in and project sync are optional; only sync information you are authorised to share.

Google and backup
Connecting Google Drive for backup is optional and is used for encrypted backup to your Google Drive application-data folder. Google handles sign-in; the app uses your Google account identity and permission to access its private backup folder. It does not request access to all your Drive files. Backups include your studio records and logo. Backup encryption happens before upload. If you enable daily automatic backup, the backup password is stored encrypted by Android Keystore on that phone so later changes can be backed up without asking again. The developer cannot read or recover it. Losing the password can prevent restoration on another device. Nearby changes are combined and update one backup file for each local calendar day. Google operates under its own privacy policy. Disconnecting Google does not delete existing backups.

Subscriptions
Google Play handles subscription payments and payment credentials under its own policies. StudioPrabandha receives purchase and subscription status to provide access to paid features; the app does not receive your full card or bank credentials. Manage or cancel subscriptions through Google Play. Deleting an app account or uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription.

Trial and access verification
In versions with My Studio trial enrollment enabled, eligible new users receive a 30-day trial after explicitly starting it. Existing trial deadlines are preserved. Using Photography Network does not start a trial. Google sign-in is required to verify trial or subscription access. Our Supabase access service processes your Google account identifier, a server-issued installation credential, trial deadline, purchase token and subscription status, and Google Play Integrity results. Purchase tokens and identity tokens are used to verify access; our access tables store purchase-token hashes rather than raw tokens. We do not receive your Google password or full payment credentials. The current trial is available once per Google account. Signing out or reinstalling does not restart that account's deadline; a different Google account may receive its own trial. App/device integrity checks help detect modified or unlicensed app use. Device Recall is not enabled for this account-based enrollment. Availability depends on the released version and server configuration; a trial described here is not a promise that enrollment is active in every build. These transfers are for app functionality and security, not advertising. Your studio records are not uploaded by trial verification. Optional Team Portal sync and Drive backup are separate features.

Access-account deletion and security retention
When trial verification is enabled, use Help & privacy → Delete account & cloud data → Delete trial / subscription access account and confirm with Google. You can also request help by emailing info@binaryapplesystems.com from the relevant account with the subject “StudioPrabandha account deletion request”. State whether you want Network account deletion, access-account deletion, Team Portal deletion, or all of these. Do not send passwords or customer records.
Deleting the access account removes the directly stored Google identifier, temporary verification challenges and request-limit records for that account. To prevent repeat trials and stolen-purchase reuse, a hashed account marker with the original trial deadline and hashed purchase ownership records are retained for 365 days after deletion, then become eligible for removal by service cleanup. Unlinked installation trial hashes/deadlines and Google's trial-used marker remain for abuse prevention; deletion does not provide another free trial. These records are pseudonymous, not claimed to be anonymous. Returning to use the service may create new access records. In older versions that support offline signed allowances, subscription access already verified on another device may last until its allowance expires, at most 24 hours. Network-enabled screens require an active connection and session; this does not mean all older Studio releases store their records on our server.
Access-account deletion does not delete your local studio database, optional Team Portal workspace, Drive backups or files shared with others, and does not cancel a Google Play subscription. Follow the separate instructions below for those services. Google and Supabase handle their own operational records under their respective policies.

Photos, documents and sharing
The app reads only images or backup files you choose through Android's file picker. Your business logo is stored with your profile and documents. Customer event photo/video libraries are not stored by the app. An optional photo selected for WhatsApp is temporarily copied for sharing. Old temporary WhatsApp photos are removed on later sharing after one day. Quotations, invoices, messages, photos and links are handed to the app you choose; you select the recipient and send them. Google, WhatsApp, email and document providers apply their own policies. Shared files can remain with recipients.

Security and reminders
An optional MPIN limits app access and blocks screenshots; it does not encrypt the on-device database. MPIN verification data is stored privately on the device. If you enable phone-screen-lock recovery, Android confirms your device credential before resetting the MPIN. The app does not receive your phone's screen-lock credential. Anyone who knows that credential can recover your MPIN. Recovery changes the MPIN, not your studio records. Reminder permission is optional. Reminder notifications use generic text and timing may be delayed by Android.

Retention and deletion
Local data remains until you delete records or clear app storage/uninstall through Android Settings. Clearing storage or uninstalling removes local records, the locally protected automatic-backup password and security settings and cannot be undone without a backup and its password. Archive actions retain financial records as explained in the app. Encrypted files saved outside the app, Drive backups and documents/photos already shared remain until separately deleted. Use your file provider to delete exported copies and Google Drive's app management controls to remove the app's hidden backup data. Revoking Google access alone does not delete backups. The developer cannot retrieve your local records or decrypt backups for you.

Delete your Team Portal account and cloud data
Request deletion from Help & privacy → Delete account & cloud data, or email info@binaryapplesystems.com from your Team Portal account email with the subject “StudioPrabandha account deletion request”. The same instructions are available at https://www.binaryapplesystems.com/studioprabandhaprivacy without installing the app. We will verify the request and process deletion of your account and associated synced data. Information may be retained where required for legal, security or fraud-prevention purposes. Cloud account deletion does not erase local device records, Google Drive backups or files already shared with others. These must be deleted separately as described above.

Your responsibilities and contact
Enter and share personal information only when you are entitled to do so. Keep your device lock and backup password private. For privacy questions or help, contact info@binaryapplesystems.com. Do not send passwords, MPINs or unneeded customer information. If you voluntarily email support, your email and the information you send are processed by the email provider to respond to your request.
