1. Introduction
Vional IT Service LLP ("we", "our", or "us") operates the Some mobile
application (the "App") for Android and iOS devices. This Privacy Policy explains how we
collect, use, store, and protect information when you download, install, or use the App.
Some is a messaging and calling app that lets you create an account, connect with friends,
exchange text and media messages, and place voice or video calls. We are committed to
protecting your privacy. We do not sell your personal information.
2. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use the App, the following information may be processed:
- Account information — email address, username, password (stored in
hashed form), first name, last name, optional phone number, and optional profile photo.
- Messages and media — text messages and files you send (images, videos,
audio, documents), including captions and delivery or seen status.
- Friend / follow data — friend requests, accepted friendships, and
related relationship status.
- Call information — call type (voice or video), participants, start and
end times, duration, and call outcome (for example completed, missed, or rejected). We
do not record or store the audio or video content of your calls on our servers.
- Presence — online or offline status and last-seen time used to show
availability in the App.
- Device / push tokens — Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) device tokens so
we can send notifications for new messages and incoming calls.
- Technical logs — limited server logs (for example errors or connection
events) used to operate and secure the service.
The App does not request access to your contacts, SMS, or precise location for core messaging
features.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use information processed through the App to:
- Create and manage your account and profile
- Deliver messages and media between you and your friends
- Enable friend requests and friend-only chat and calls
- Set up and operate voice and video calls (signaling and connectivity)
- Show online status, last seen, and typing indicators
- Send push notifications for messages and calls
- Maintain security, prevent abuse, and troubleshoot issues
- Improve reliability and performance of the App
We do not use your private messages or call content for advertising.
4. Device Permissions
The App may request the following device permissions:
- Microphone — required for voice and video calls and for recording audio
or video you send in chat.
- Camera — required for video calls and for capturing photos or videos to
send in chat.
- Photos / media / storage — to pick and send images, videos, audio, or
documents from your device.
- Notifications — to alert you about new messages and incoming calls when
the App is in the background.
- Bluetooth / nearby devices (Android, where applicable) — to route call
audio to wireless headsets.
- Internet / network access — required to sync chats, presence, and calls
with our servers.
You can manage or revoke permissions at any time through your device settings. Some features
may not work if required permissions are disabled.
5. Data Storage and Retention
- On our servers: Account, chat, friendship, and call-log data are stored
on our servers so the service can work across devices. Media you upload may be stored on
our servers and delivered via secure links to recipients.
- Retention: We retain information for as long as your account is active
and as needed to provide the service, comply with law, or resolve disputes.
- Deletion: Uninstalling the App removes it from your device but does not
automatically delete server-side account data. You may request account-related deletion
by contacting us (see Contact Us).
6. Information Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Information may be shared only in
these situations:
- Other users you interact with — for example, profile details visible to
friends, messages and media you send them, and call participation.
- Service providers — trusted processors that help us run the App (for
example cloud hosting and Firebase Cloud Messaging for notifications). They process data
on our behalf under appropriate safeguards.
- Legal requirements — we may disclose information if required by law,
court order, or government request.
- Business protection — we may disclose information to protect the
rights, safety, and security of Vional IT Service LLP, our users, or others.
7. Third-Party Services
Some relies on third-party infrastructure to operate, including:
- Hosting / backend services — to store accounts, messages, media
metadata, and call logs
- Google Firebase Cloud Messaging — to deliver push notifications on
Android (and iOS when configured)
- WebRTC / network services — to establish peer-to-peer or relayed audio
and video connections during calls (for example STUN servers)
These providers may process technical data (such as device tokens or connection metadata) as
needed to provide their services. The App does not include third-party advertising SDKs.
We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party service
providers beyond what is needed to operate Some.
8. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required in your
country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a
child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to
delete such information.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information (for
example encrypted transport via HTTPS, hashed passwords, and access controls on our
systems).
However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. Please use a strong
password and keep your device updated. We cannot guarantee absolute security of information
transmitted over the internet.
10. International Data Transfers
Our servers and service providers may process data in locations different from where you
live. By using the App, you understand that your information may be transferred to and
processed in those locations as needed to operate the service.
11. Your Choices and Rights
You can:
- Update profile details in the App (where available)
- Deny or revoke device permissions in your device settings
- Turn off notifications in device settings
- Uninstall the App
- Contact us to request account deletion or ask privacy questions
Depending on your location, you may have additional rights under applicable data protection
laws (such as access, correction, or deletion). Contact us using the details below to
exercise those rights.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the App, legal
requirements, or our practices. When we update this policy, we will revise the "Last
updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the App after changes are posted
