Data safety
Charcha is a shared home and family organizer. This page summarizes the information the app may handle. Google Play's Data safety form is completed separately by the developer and must match the final production configuration.
What you can add
- Account information such as name, email, household membership, and roles.
- Household content such as groceries, meals, recipes, budgets, notes, habits, birthdays, service contacts, and group recommendations.
- Documents, bills, screenshots, visiting cards, and metadata that you intentionally upload or scan.
- Optional contact information and WhatsApp numbers when you choose to import or save them.
Permissions
- Camera: used when you choose to scan or attach a document, bill, or visiting card.
- Contacts: used when you choose to import a phone contact into the shared service directory.
- Microphone and speech recognition: used when you choose Hindi or English voice notes or todos.
- Notifications: used for reminders and activity updates after you grant permission.
Sharing and processing
Personal content is private by default. You choose whether content belongs in your personal space, family space, or a selected friends group. Membership in another space does not automatically expose content from this space.
Optional content structuring, maps, hosting, push notifications, and payments may involve configured service providers. WhatsApp and Google Play handle activity that takes place in their products under their own policies.
Security choices
Use a unique password, keep your device protected, and invite only people you trust. Uploaded documents should be stored in private production storage with access controls and expiring links before launch.
Deletion
Charcha provides account deletion in Settings and a web request path for people who no longer have the app installed. Visit Delete your account for the steps.
