Daily Rate Update — Privacy Policy

Effective date: 9 October 2026

Daily Rate Update, provided by Zia Solutions, displays scrap market rates, a manager-updated Gold rate, and USD-to-PKR exchange rate information. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Android app.

1. Information You Provide

The app does not require users to create an account or sign in to view rates. It does not request your name, email address, phone number, financial details, contacts, photos, microphone access, or device location.

If you contact us by email or through an external messaging service, we receive the information you choose to provide, such as your contact details and message. We use that information to respond to your request and provide support.

2. Information Stored on Your Device

The app stores information locally to support its features, including:

  • Your language, theme, and font preferences.
  • Previously received market rates and rate comparisons.
  • Records of item updates already displayed to you, so update tags can be managed.

These records are not uploaded by our app as a personal user profile. Android may include app data in device backups according to your device and backup settings.

3. Online Services and Technical Information

The app connects to Google Firebase Cloud Firestore to retrieve market items and manager-published rates. It also connects to ExchangeRate-API to retrieve USD-to-PKR exchange rate information.

These connections transmit technical information needed to deliver the services. Service providers receive your IP address when you connect and may process connection logs and request information for service operation and security.

Firebase Cloud Firestore also collects Firebase user-agent information, which can include device and operating-system metadata, the app installation source, and Firebase SDK versions. Google uses this information to provide, maintain, and improve Firebase services.

The app does not upload your item searches, display preferences, or update-tag history to these services.

4. How Information Is Used and Shared

Information is used to display rates, remember your preferences, operate app features, maintain service security, and respond to support requests.

We do not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising. Technical information is processed by the service providers described above. Support correspondence is handled through the email or messaging provider you use.

We may disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect our services and legal rights.

5. Advertising and Analytics

The current version of Daily Rate Update does not include advertisements, advertising SDKs, Firebase Analytics, or Firebase Crashlytics.

6. External Links

The app may open external services such as WhatsApp or Facebook when you select a contact or social link. Information you provide to those services is handled under their own privacy policies.

This policy covers the Android app. The website hosting this policy may have separate privacy practices.

7. Retention and Deletion

Local preferences and cached records remain on your device until replaced or removed. You can clear them through Android’s app storage settings or uninstall the app. Device backup copies are managed through your backup provider’s settings.

Support correspondence is retained as needed to handle your request and meet applicable legal obligations. You can contact us to request deletion of information you have provided directly to us, subject to any required retention.

Service providers retain technical records according to their own policies. We do not control all records maintained by those providers.

8. Security

The app uses encrypted network connections to retrieve rates. We take reasonable measures to protect information under our control, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

9. Children’s Privacy

Daily Rate Update is intended for general market-information use and is not specifically directed at children. We do not knowingly request personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when app features or information-handling practices change. Updates will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
