Sherni Privacy policy

Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 13 May 2026

Sherni (“Sherni”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how it is used, and the choices you have regarding your data when using the Sherni application.

By installing or using Sherni, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Data Collection and Usage

1.1 Account Information

When you sign in using a supported identity provider, Sherni may collect basic account information, including:

  • Name

  • Email address

  • Profile photo

  • Account ID

You may also choose to add optional profile information such as:

  • Age

  • Gender

  • About/Profile information

  • Profile picture

1.2 Emergency Contacts

Sherni allows you to add emergency contacts either manually or through your device’s system contact picker.

Sherni does not access or read your complete contact list. Only the contacts you explicitly select are stored locally on your device.

1.3 Location Permission

Sherni requires location access for the following safety-related features:

  • Attaching your live location to SOS alerts

  • Helping you locate nearby police stations, hospitals, pharmacies, and clinics through supported map applications

  • Displaying your current city on the home screen

Location access is requested only after you accept an in-app disclosure explaining how the data will be used.

When you manually enable the SOS safety service, Sherni starts a foreground service with a visible ongoing notification so you are always aware when location access is active.

The SOS service will not operate silently in the background without a visible notification.

You may disable the SOS service at any time or revoke location permission through your device settings.

Your live location is never uploaded to our servers. Coordinates are only included in emergency messages that you choose to send.

1.4 SMS and Messaging

Sherni does not automatically send SMS messages on your behalf.

When you trigger an SOS alert, Sherni opens your default messaging application with pre-filled recipients and message content. You must manually review and send the message.

Sherni does not read, store, or monitor your SMS conversations or message content.

1.5 Health and Wellness Data

The following information is stored locally on your device only and is never uploaded to our servers unless explicitly stated otherwise:

Activity Recognition

Daily step counts collected from your device’s physical activity sensor. Sherni stores only step counts and does not record movement traces or location paths for fitness tracking.

Menstrual Cycle Tracking

Period dates and flow information entered by you.

After you log at least one cycle entry, Sherni may schedule a local reminder on your device for predicted future cycle dates. These reminders are generated entirely on-device and are never transmitted to our servers.

Wellness Logs

Daily wellness entries such as mood, sleep, hydration, energy levels, and related personal tracking information.

Stress Tracker

Stress and anxiety check-ins along with optional personal notes.

Journal Entries

Personal journal and mental wellness notes created within the app.

Heart Rate Monitoring

Heart-rate readings generated through the camera-based heart-rate feature.

1.6 Camera Permission

Sherni requests camera access only when you actively use features that require it.

Heart-Rate Monitor

Camera frames are processed temporarily in memory to estimate your heart rate. No images or videos are saved, recorded, or transmitted.

Private Vault

The camera may be used to capture photos directly into your secure private vault storage. Images remain stored locally on your device.

1.7 Private Vault

Sherni includes a Private Vault feature that allows you to securely store personal photos behind a numeric PIN.

Vault content is stored locally within private app storage that is inaccessible to other applications.

For security purposes:

  • Your PIN is never stored in plain text

  • Only a secure cryptographic hash of the PIN is stored

  • Encrypted preferences and hardware-backed security mechanisms may be used where supported by the device

On devices where secure hardware-backed storage is unavailable, Sherni may use alternative secure storage methods while still ensuring the actual PIN is never directly stored.

Uninstalling the application permanently removes vault content and associated security data.

1.8 Public Content

If you choose to publish blog posts or content as Public, your content and username may be uploaded to secure cloud servers so other users can view it.

Content marked as Private remains only on your device and is never uploaded.

1.9 Notifications

On Android 13 and newer devices, notification access requires runtime permission.

Sherni requests notification permission only when necessary for features such as:

  • SOS service notifications

  • Period-cycle reminders

  • Safety-check reminders

  • Optional app alerts and updates

Notifications used by Sherni may include:

  • Ongoing SOS-service status notifications

  • Local cycle reminders stored on your device

  • Safety reminders to review emergency contacts

  • Optional remote notifications delivered through secure notification services

If you enable remote notifications, Sherni may receive a unique device notification token used solely for delivering app notifications.

This token is not shared with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.

You may revoke notification permission at any time through device settings.

1.10 Analytics and Diagnostics

Sherni may use analytics and crash-reporting services to improve app performance, reliability, and stability.

These services may collect:

  • Anonymous usage statistics

  • Device information

  • Crash logs

  • Performance diagnostics

These reports do not include your private journals, wellness logs, emergency contacts, SMS content, or vault data.

2. Data Storage and Security

Local Storage

Sensitive information such as emergency contacts, wellness records, vault images, and journals are primarily stored securely on your device.

Cloud Storage

Publicly shared content and account-related information may be stored on secure cloud servers protected using industry-standard encryption during transmission and storage.

While we take reasonable security measures, no electronic storage system or internet transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure.

3. Your Controls

You may at any time:

  • Revoke permissions such as Location, Camera, Activity Recognition, or Notifications through device settings

  • Delete personal logs, journals, reminders, or stored history inside the app

  • Remove emergency contacts

  • Disable the SOS service

  • Delete your account and associated cloud-stored data from the profile settings section

4. Disclaimer

Sherni is a women’s safety and wellness application intended to assist users with personal safety, health tracking, and emergency support features.

The SOS functionality depends on your mobile device, operating system, network availability, SIM connectivity, permissions, battery condition, and messaging services.

Standard SMS, internet, or telecom service charges may apply according to your service provider.

If your device has insufficient balance, disabled permissions, poor connectivity, unsupported hardware, or battery restrictions, certain features may not function correctly.

This application is continuously being improved and may contain temporary limitations, bugs, or service interruptions.

While we strive to provide reliable functionality, Sherni and its developers are not responsible for:

  • Failure or delay in SOS message delivery

  • Network or device-related failures

  • Third-party service interruptions

  • Loss of data

  • Technical malfunctions beyond our control

  • Any direct or indirect damages arising from use of the application

Users should not rely solely on the application for personal safety and are encouraged to use additional safety measures whenever necessary.
