This Privacy Policy describes how Secure Horizon ("the App", "we", "us", or "our") handles information when you use our mobile application.

The App is owned and operated by:

By downloading or using Secure Horizon, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. INFORMATION WE DO NOT COLLECT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Secure Horizon is a Virtual Private Network (VPN) service. We operate on a strict no-logs principle. We do NOT collect, store, or share:

• Your browsing history
• Websites or services you visit through the VPN
• DNS queries
• IP addresses assigned through the VPN tunnel
• The content of any data transmitted through the VPN
• Timestamps of your VPN sessions tied to your identity
• Bandwidth usage tied to your identity

Your VPN traffic is encrypted end-to-end between your device and our VPN servers. We cannot read it, and we do not retain it.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
2. INFORMATION STORED ON YOUR DEVICE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The following information is stored locally on your device only and never transmitted to our servers:

• App settings (preferred VPN protocol, kill switch state, auto-connect preferences, dark mode preference)
• Local usage statistics (session time, total download/upload volume, weekly consumption) — used solely to display your stats inside the App
• Your selected and favorite server locations
• Subscription tier cache (used to render your premium status at launch)

You can clear this data at any time by deleting the App from your device.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
3. SUBSCRIPTION AND IN-APP PURCHASES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Secure Horizon offers auto-renewable subscriptions (Monthly and Annual Premium plans) processed exclusively through Apple's In-App Purchase system (StoreKit).

• We do not receive or store your payment details.
• Apple handles all billing, renewal, refund, and payment-method management.
• We receive only the minimum information required to verify your subscription status (an anonymous transaction identifier and the product ID you purchased) from Apple's servers.

To manage or cancel your subscription, visit Settings → [your Apple ID] → Subscriptions on your device. For Apple's privacy practices, see https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
4. VPN CONNECTION DATA
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

To provide the VPN service, our servers temporarily process the following operational data while your connection is active:

• The IP address you connect from (so we can route your encrypted traffic back to you)
• The server location you selected
• The amount of bandwidth used during the current session (aggregated, not tied to your identity)

This operational data is held only for the duration of your active session and is discarded when your session ends. We do NOT maintain logs that could connect VPN sessions to your identity after the session ends.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
5. ANALYTICS AND TRACKING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Secure Horizon does not use third-party analytics, advertising identifiers, or tracking SDKs. The App does not display advertisements. We do not share data with advertisers, data brokers, or social networks.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
6. NETWORK MONITORING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The App uses Apple's built-in Network framework to detect whether you are connected to Wi-Fi. This detection happens entirely on your device and is used solely to enable the optional "Auto-connect on Wi-Fi" feature. No network information leaves your device.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
7. PERMISSIONS THE APP REQUESTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• VPN Configuration — required to establish the encrypted tunnel. Granted once via iOS when you first enable the VPN.
• Local Network / Wi-Fi Detection — required for the optional Auto-connect on Wi-Fi feature.

No other permissions are requested or required.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
8. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Secure Horizon is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us so we can remove it.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
9. DATA SECURITY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

We use industry-standard encryption (WireGuard, IKEv2, OpenVPN protocols) to protect VPN traffic between your device and our servers. Subscription credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
10. YOUR RIGHTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Because we do not collect personal information about you, there is typically no personal data for us to access, correct, or delete. If you have specific questions about information we may hold, or wish to exercise rights under GDPR, CCPA, or similar laws, please contact us at the email below.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
11. INTERNATIONAL USERS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Our VPN servers are located in multiple countries. By using Secure Horizon, you consent to your encrypted traffic being routed through servers in the country you select.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
12. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent changes. Material changes will be highlighted inside the App or announced on our support channel.
