1. Introduction

LokLok is an independently developed mobile application committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use LokLok and related services (the "Service").

3. How I Use Your Information

I use collected information to:

• • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service

4. Data Encryption & Security

LokLok uses end-to-end encryption (E2EE) for all user communications:

• • Messages and media are encrypted on your device before transmission
• • Servers store only encrypted data; I cannot decrypt or view your content
• • Encryption keys are stored locally on your device, not on servers
• • Industry-standard TLS/SSL is used for data in transit
• • Regular security audits and penetration testing

Note: While robust security measures are employed, no system is entirely risk-free. I encourage users to maintain strong passwords and enable device security features.

5. Data Retention

• • User Content: Stored as long as your account is active. You can delete content anytime.
• • Account Data: Retained for 30 days after account deletion (to prevent accidental data loss recovery)

• • Backups: Encrypted backups may be retained for 30 days post-deletion for disaster recovery
• • Legal Holds: We may retain data if required by law or legal process

I do not sell, trade, or rent user data. Information is shared only in these limited cases:

• • Service Providers: Cloud infrastructure, payment processors, and analytics platforms (under strict confidentiality agreements)
• • Legal Requirements: When required by law, court order, or government request
• • Safety & Abuse Prevention: To prevent fraud, abuse, or threats to user safety
• • Business Transfers: In case of merger, acquisition, or bankruptcy (with notice to users)
