Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Guardia AI processes, caches, and protects user data across our suite of free consumer mobile applications (AI Guardian, Asia Recipe Book, Kerala Life, Vietnam Life, Thailand Life, Malaysia Life, Guardia Chat, and Guardia Translator).

Zero-Trust Local Caching

Our mobile applications prioritize user privacy by processing and caching data directly on your local device. Standard chat histories, scanned receipt logs, recipe favorites, and travel configurations are saved inside your device's sandboxed storage database, preventing unauthorized access by other apps.

Device Permissions & Usage

We request device permissions only when necessary to perform app-specific operations. You can modify or revoke these permissions in your system settings at any time:

Camera & Photo Library • AI Guardian: Used to scan and crop invoices or receipts for OCR parsing.
• Guardia Chat: Used to attach and send photos or videos in private chats.

Location Services • Kerala Life / Vietnam Life / Thailand Life / Malaysia Life: Used to recommend nearby cultural landmarks, local homestays, and regional food spots.

Microphone & Audio • Guardia Translator: Used to capture natural speech for real-time translation.
• AI Guardian: Used for voice-first expense logging.

Local Storage & Preferences • Asia Recipe Book: Used to cache pantry ingredients lists and bookmark favorite recipes offline.

Third-Party Processing (AI Models)

When you request conversational AI analysis (such as invoice categorization in AI Guardian or dialogue translations in Guardia Translator), text prompts are sent over encrypted HTTPS connections to our secure backend servers. These requests are processed by industry-leading LLM providers (e.g., OpenAI, Qwen) in memory. No personal identifiers are attached, and prompts are never stored or used to train public models.

Data Deletion & Account Deletion (App Store Compliance)

In accordance with iOS App Store Guideline 5.1.1 and Google Play Console policies regarding user data deletion rights:

Local Database Wiping: You can permanently delete all cached conversations, settings, preferences, and local documents directly within each application's Settings panel.
Server-Side Data Deletion: If you signed up for beta updates or early access with your email address, you can request complete erasure of your email record from our lead database at any time.
How to Request Deletion: Simply email our data protection officer at support@aiguardian.my. Wiping requests are processed within 48 hours.
