1. Scope
This policy applies to the Anuda Construction Client Portal website and the Android application that provides access to the same portal. It covers information processed for account login, project dashboards, support chat, payment follow-up, document access, and mobile notifications.
2. Information We Collect
- Identity and contact details: your name, registered mobile number, email address, and linked client profile information.
- Authentication details: OTP requests, OTP verification status, session state, and login activity required to secure account access.
- Project and service data: project details, task updates, support chat history, payment references, uploaded receipts or proof, and document access activity.
- Mobile app data: device ID, app version, device platform, Firebase Cloud Messaging token, and notification preference settings.
- Technical data: server-side logs, browser or app request metadata, connectivity state, and download activity required for service operation, diagnostics, and security.
3. How We Use Information
- To verify your identity through OTP login and protect access to your portal account.
- To show your project status, tasks, payments, drawings, documents, and other account-specific information.
- To let you communicate with Anuda support teams through portal chat and related service channels.
- To process payment proof, service requests, profile updates, and issue resolution workflows.
- To register your Android device for push notifications and honour your chosen notification categories.
- To maintain service security, troubleshoot technical issues, and improve service reliability.
4. App Permissions We Use
The Android app requests or declares the following permissions. Some are essential for the app to function, while others are used only if you choose a related feature such as notifications, uploads, downloads, or camera capture.
| Permission | Why we use it | Type |
|---|---|---|
| INTERNET | Required to load the client portal, call secure APIs, sync account data, load drawings/documents, and operate support chat. | Required |
| ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE | Used to detect whether your device is online so the app can show offline status, retry options, and a stable loading experience. | Required |
| POST_NOTIFICATIONS | Used to send project, chat, task, and support notifications to your device when you allow notifications. | Optional |
| VIBRATE | Used to provide vibration feedback for notifications on supported devices. | Optional |
| WAKE_LOCK | Used to help notification delivery and message processing complete reliably when the device is idle. | Required |
| CAMERA | Used only when you choose to capture a payment proof, receipt, site image, or another document directly from the app flow. | Optional |
| READ_MEDIA_IMAGES READ_MEDIA_VIDEO |
Used when you choose existing images or videos from your device for upload as supporting files or proof documents. | Optional |
| READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
Declared only for legacy Android compatibility on older versions so file selection and downloads continue to work correctly where required by the platform. | Legacy support |
5. Sharing and Service Providers
We may share limited information with trusted service providers only as needed to operate the service, including:
- OTP and communication providers to deliver login verification messages.
- Firebase Cloud Messaging to deliver Android push notifications when notifications are enabled.
- CRM and support systems, including Bitrix24 and related chat routing services, to manage project communication, support responses, and client service workflows.
- Hosting and infrastructure providers that store and serve the portal securely.
If you enable a support workflow that routes replies through connected channels such as WhatsApp, relevant conversation data may be processed through that connected service strictly for message delivery and support continuity.
6. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as it is reasonably required to provide the portal, maintain project records, resolve support issues, meet legal or accounting obligations, and protect the service from misuse. Device notification records may be updated, replaced, or deactivated when you log out, reinstall the app, or change devices.
7. Your Choices
- You can choose whether to allow app notifications on supported Android versions.
- You can manage category-wise mobile notification preferences inside your client profile.
- You can deny optional device permissions such as camera or media access, although related upload or capture features may then be unavailable.
- You can request profile corrections or support assistance through the portal support section or by emailing us.
8. Security
We use account verification, controlled access, server-side processing, and operational safeguards designed to protect your information. No internet service can be guaranteed as completely risk-free, but we take reasonable steps to reduce unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure.
