Privacy Policy

Last updated: 27-09-2026

WallBond ("we", "our", or "us") operates the WallBond mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices you have. WallBond is operated from India and this policy is written to comply with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and Google Play's User Data policy.

1. Information We Collect

a) Account & profile

• Google account details — your name, email address, profile picture and a unique account ID from Google Sign-In (via Firebase Authentication). Your account ID is how the App identifies you.
• Phone number (optional) — only if you add it in your profile. It is never shown to your partner.
• Gender (optional) — Female, Male, or Prefer not to say.

b) Content you share with your partner

• Wallpapers / photos — images you pick, capture or design in the App. Location data (GPS) embedded in photos is removed before upload.
• Little notes and wallpaper messages — short text you send, plus a short history of recent notes.
• Moods and reactions — the moods you share and emoji reactions to your partner's moods and notes.
• Couple Q&A — questions you ask, answer options and your partner's answers.
• Partner nickname — the name you choose to save your partner as.
• Activity scores — your streak and Love Pulse / Love Calculator scores, which are calculated from the activity above.

c) Pairing & device information

• Your 8-character invite code and which account you are paired with.
• Your device screen size, so wallpapers fit your partner's screen.
• A push notification token (Firebase Cloud Messaging), so we can notify you when your partner shares something.

d) Analytics, diagnostics & advertising measurement

• App usage events — which features you use (for example "wallpaper sent" or "mood set"), collected with Firebase Analytics and linked to your account ID.
• Crash logs and performance data — collected with Firebase Crashlytics to fix bugs.
• Advertising measurement — we use the Meta (Facebook) SDK to measure how well our ads work. It may collect your device's advertising ID, install referrer information, app events such as install, sign-up, pairing and first wallpaper sent, and your account ID. We do not send the content of your photos, notes or messages to Meta.

2. How We Use Your Information

• Sign you in and keep your account secure
• Pair you with your partner and sync wallpapers, notes, moods, Q&A, nicknames and streaks between your two devices
• Show your name and profile picture to your paired partner
• Send notifications when your partner shares something
• Understand which features are used so we can improve the App, and fix crashes
• Measure the performance of our advertising campaigns

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use your photos, notes or messages for advertising.

3. Who Can See Your Data

• Your paired partner — sees the wallpapers, notes, moods, reactions, Q&A and nickname you share, plus your name and profile picture. Your partner cannot see your email, phone number or gender.
• Service providers — Google Firebase (authentication, database, file storage, cloud functions, notifications, analytics, crash reporting and remote configuration) and Meta Platforms (advertising measurement), who process data on our behalf under their own terms.
• Legal requirements — if we are required to disclose information by law or to protect the rights and safety of our users.

4. Data Storage & Security

• Data is stored on Google Firebase servers located in Singapore (asia-southeast1). By using the App you understand your data is stored outside India.
• All data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Access to your data requires signing in and is controlled by security rules; your private profile details (email, phone number, gender) are accessible only to you.
• No system is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

5. Data Retention & Deletion

• Your data is kept while your account is active.
• When you unpair, the shared couple data (wallpapers, notes, moods, Q&A, nicknames, streaks and scores) is deleted, including both wallpaper images.
• When you sign out, notifications to that device stop and pairing data is cleared from the device.
• You can request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time; see How to delete your account below.
• Analytics data is retained by Firebase according to our Google Analytics retention settings, crash reports for up to 90 days, and advertising measurement data by Meta according to its own retention policy.

6. How to Delete Your Account
