Pixelminar TechnologiesDawai Dost – Medicine Reminder – Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Pixelminar Technologies ("we", "us", "our") handles information in the Dawai Dost – Medicine Reminder Android app (the "app"). By using the app you agree to this policy.
Dawai Dost reminds you to take your medicines and, if you choose, lets family members know when a dose is missed. There is no login. Your medicine list, dose history and blood-pressure diary are stored on your phone.
Information the app uses
| Data | Why it is used | Where it is stored |
|---|---|---|
| Medicine names, doses, schedules and dose history (taken / missed) | To ring reminders on time and show your history | On your device |
| Blood-pressure readings (systolic, diastolic, pulse) | To show your BP diary, graph and level | On your device |
| The name and relation you enter for yourself or family members (e.g. "Mummy") | To show who a reminder or alert is about | On your device |
| Pairing code | To link family phones without an account | On your device and on the family phones you share it with |
| If you link family: your name, medicine list, dose taken/missed events, BP readings and alerts | To show family members your medicine status and alert them about missed doses or very high/low BP | Sent through ntfy.sh (see below) to the linked family phones |
The app does not require you to create an account or sign in. We do not collect your email address or phone number, and we do not run any server that stores your health data.
Permissions
- Notifications – to show medicine reminders with a Taken button, and family alerts.
- Alarms & reminders (exact alarms) – to ring the reminder at the exact time you set, even when the app is closed.
- Run at startup – to re-schedule reminders after your phone restarts.
- Vibrate and keep device awake – to ring the alarm reliably.
- Internet – only for family linking and alerts. Reminders work without internet.
You can revoke any permission at any time from your device's Settings › Apps › Dawai Dost – Medicine Reminder › Permissions. Some features may stop working without them.
Family linking and ntfy.sh
Family linking is optional. If you use it, messages between linked phones are delivered through ntfy.sh, a free, open-source notification service. Please note:
- Messages are sent over an encrypted HTTPS connection.
- Your pairing code works as the name of a private channel. Anyone who knows your pairing code can read the messages, including medicine names and BP readings. Share it only with family members you trust.
- ntfy.sh keeps messages for about 12 hours and then deletes them. Copies remain on the linked family phones until the app's data is cleared or the app is uninstalled.
- ntfy.sh's handling of data is described in its privacy policy.
- If you do not link any family member, nothing leaves your phone.
Health information
Medicine and blood-pressure information is sensitive. We never sell it, never use it for advertising, and never share it with anyone except the family members you link yourself.
Medical disclaimer
Dawai Dost is a reminder and diary tool only. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. BP colours and levels are approximate guides, not a diagnosis. Always follow your doctor's advice, and do not rely on the app as your only way of remembering critical medication.
No ads, no tracking
The app does not show advertisements, does not use advertising identifiers, and does not include analytics or tracking SDKs.
Data retention and deletion
Data stored locally remains on your device until you delete it inside the app, clear the app's data, or uninstall the app. Uninstalling the app permanently deletes all locally stored data. To request deletion of any data held by us or our service providers, see our Data Deletion page.
Children's privacy
The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
We do not sell your data
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to anyone.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy.
