1. Our Commitment to Your Sanctuary

At Yogic Soul ("we," "our," or "us"), we operate under the belief that personal data is a digital extension of the self. We treat your information with the same reverence we treat the practice of yoga. This policy governs all data collection via the Yogic Soul mobile application and yogicsoul.com.

2. Categories of Information Collected

2.1. Provided Information

During account creation, we collect your primary contact details (Name, Email, Phone Number) and spiritual profile (Experience level, wellness goals, and preferred practice times).

2.2. Biometric and Health Integration

Our platform integrates with the Apple HealthKit API and Google Fit API. With your explicit, affirmative consent, we access the following data points:

• Heart Rate and Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
• Mindful Minutes
• Active Calories Burned
• Sleep Duration and Quality

This data is used exclusively to generate "Vedic Insights"—correlating your yoga consistency with physical health improvements. We do not store raw biometric data on our servers longer than necessary to process your session reports.

3. Usage of Information

We utilize your data to:

• Deliver personalized practice recommendations.
• Facilitate real-time feedback during Live Masterclasses.
• Improve the "Soul Progress" dashboard analytics.
• Prevent fraudulent behavior or violations of our community standards.

4. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell your personal, health, or biometric data to advertisers or brokers. Data is only shared with:

• Service Providers: Secure hosting (AWS), video streaming (Mux), and payment processing (Stripe/Apple).
• Masters: Instructors see your username and goal progress only if you join their specific Sangha or live session.

5. Data Governance and Deletion

You have the absolute right to "Be Forgotten." You may request full account deletion via the App Settings or by contacting privacy@yogicsoul.com. Upon deletion, all personal identifiers are purged from our active databases within 30 days.

1. Digital Covenant

By accessing Yogic Soul, you agree to these terms. This is a legally binding agreement between you and Yogic Soul Wellness Inc.

2. Health and Physical Disclaimer

2.1. Voluntary Participation: Yoga and breathwork involve physical exertion. You acknowledge that you are voluntarily participating in these activities and assume all risks of injury.

2.2. Not Medical Advice: Our content, including AI insights and instructor guidance, is for informational purposes only. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician before starting any new exercise program.

3. Subscription Terms

Subscriptions automatically renew through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. You must cancel at least 24 hours before your billing cycle ends to avoid charges for the following period. We do not provide refunds for partially used subscription periods.

4. Community Conduct (The Sangha Rule)

We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for harassment, hate speech, or sexually explicit content within our community circles and live sessions. Violation of these standards will result in an immediate and permanent ban without refund.

5. Master-Student Relationship

Instructors ("Masters") are independent contractors. While Yogic Soul vets credentials, we are not responsible for the specific advice or techniques provided by individual instructors. Any disputes arising from private sessions are between the Master and the Seeker.

6. Intellectual Property

All video content, audio, and branding are the exclusive property of Yogic Soul. Recording or redistributing our Masterclasses is strictly prohibited and will be met with legal action.
