Munay: Privacy Policy and Terms of Service

Effective Date: May 3, 2026  •  Updated to cover Enterprise Services, WebRTC SDK, AI Safety Features & Android Health Connect / BLE Wearable Integration

This document governs your use of all Munay products and services — including the consumer Personal Safety & Journey Protection app, the Munay Lone Worker Platform for enterprise organizations, and the Munay WebRTC SDK for third-party developers.

I. Privacy Policy

Data Collection

Munay collects the essential information needed to provide our services—focusing on personal safety, energy forecasting, and health monitoring.

Data Type Purpose & Usage
Profile Information Name (or preferred name), basic preferences, and Birth Date (required for Biorhythm Intelligence and Energy Forecasting).
Location Data Used for the Silent Emergency System to dispatch precise coordinates to your trusted contacts, and for local services (with your explicit, revocable consent).
Health Metrics Optional Opt-In. Health data is collected from two sources depending on your device:
  • iOS — Apple Health: HRV, Resting Heart Rate, and Stress Score read with your permission from Apple Health. Processed on-device; not uploaded to Munay servers.
  • Android — Health Connect: Heart Rate, Resting Heart Rate, Heart Rate Variability (HRV/RMSSD), and Steps read with your permission from Google Health Connect. Processed on-device; not uploaded to Munay servers.
  • Android — BLE Wearable Sensor: Real-time Heart Rate (BPM) and RR-interval data streamed via Bluetooth Low Energy from a compatible heart rate sensor (e.g., Polar) during an active safety journey only. Used to derive HRV, Stress Score, and Readiness Score on-device. Bluetooth is active only while a journey is in progress.
  • Derived Metrics: Stress Score and Readiness Score are algorithmically computed on-device from the above data. These metrics are for informational purposes only and do not constitute medical advice.
Usage Data App interaction patterns, feature usage (e.g., alert activation, chart views) to improve the app experience and reliability.
Emergency Contacts List of trusted individuals you designate to receive alerts during a crisis.
Enterprise & Organizational Data For Lone Worker Platform users: organization code, brokerage affiliation, supervisor identifiers, showing activity logs, and real-time location data shared with your designated organizational supervisor. This data is collected under your employer's data processing agreement with Munay.
Audio & Video Call Data Metadata for WebRTC calls (initiation time, duration, participants, outcome) is logged for audit trail purposes in the Lone Worker Platform. Actual audio and video is transmitted peer-to-peer and is not stored by Munay servers.
SDK Integration Data For third-party developers using the Munay WebRTC SDK: API keys, application identifiers, and call event telemetry used for licensing compliance, billing, and SDK performance monitoring.

Data Protection & Security

We are committed to building a foundation of trust:

  • We implement industry-leading security measures, including end-to-end encryption for all personal communications and alert data transfer.
  • All sensitive data is stored in secure cloud environments with regular security audits.
  • We use strong access controls to ensure that only essential personnel can access anonymized data for system maintenance.
  • We have a strict policy against selling personal data to third parties.

Enterprise Data Processing & Lone Worker Platform

When Munay is deployed by an organization through the Lone Worker Platform, data processing operates under a dual-controller model:

  • Organization as Data Controller: Your employer or brokerage determines the scope of monitoring, including which agents are enrolled, what supervisor visibility is enabled, and how audit logs are used for E&O compliance.
  • Agent Consent: Agents must explicitly accept enterprise enrollment and monitoring terms before the organization can access any location or activity data. Consent is separate from standard app consent.
  • Supervisor Access: Designated supervisors can view real-time location, battery level, showing status, and initiate audio calls to enrolled agents during active work sessions only. Access is scoped to active sessions and does not extend to personal app usage outside of work journeys.
  • Audit Trail Logs: Showing check-ins, supervisor call records, and session events are retained as part of the brokerage's audit trail for E&O insurance and compliance purposes. Retention is governed by the organization's data processing agreement.
  • Data Separation: Enterprise monitoring data is logically separated from personal consumer app data. Supervisors cannot access personal health data, emergency contacts, or non-work journey data.
  • Offboarding: Upon an agent's removal from an organization, all enterprise-linked monitoring data access is revoked. Historical audit logs may be retained by the organization per their agreement.
  • Welfare Check Monitoring: The platform automatically sends push notifications to lone workers at configurable intervals during active sessions. If a worker does not acknowledge within the response window, their last-known GPS location is forwarded to a designated supervisor. Workers receive explicit notification that the Welfare Check feature is active when enabled by their organization.
  • AI Safety Insights: Anonymised and aggregated session, route, and alert data may be transmitted to Groq, Inc. (an external AI inference provider using the llama-3.3-70b-versatile model) to generate safety briefings, SOS triage assessments, and heatmap insights for supervisors. No personally identifiable information — including member names, emails, or raw coordinates — is included in AI requests. Groq processes data under its own privacy policy. Organizations may contact Munay to disable AI features.

WebRTC SDK Data Practices

The Munay WebRTC SDK enables third-party Android applications to integrate peer-to-peer audio and video calling. The following data practices apply:

  • No Media Storage: Audio and video streams are transmitted directly peer-to-peer (P2P) using WebRTC. Munay does not record, store, or process the content of calls.
  • Signaling Metadata: Connection signaling data (session negotiation, ICE candidates) passes through Munay's signaling infrastructure transiently and is not persisted.
  • Call Event Telemetry: SDK integrators receive call event callbacks (connected, disconnected, failed). Munay may collect anonymized, aggregated telemetry for SDK reliability and performance monitoring.
  • Developer Responsibility: Third-party developers integrating the SDK are independently responsible for their own privacy policies, user consent, and compliance with applicable laws in their applications.
  • API Key Security: SDK API keys are issued per application and must be kept confidential. Munay may revoke keys for abuse or terms violations.

Health & Fitness Data Integration

Our health and wellness features are entirely opt-in and privacy-focused. Munay integrates with platform health APIs and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) wearable sensors on both iOS and Android to provide wellness monitoring during safety journeys.

iOS — Apple Health
  • Birth Date Data: Used solely to calculate the Physical, Emotional, and Intellectual Biorhythm cycles for your energy forecast.
  • Health Data: HRV, Resting Heart Rate, and Stress Score are read from Apple Health with your explicit permission, anonymized, and used to calculate personalized wellness insights and safety recommendations.
  • No specific health values are shared with other users; only aggregated wellness indicators are used for personalized features.
  • You can revoke Apple Health data access at any time through the in-app Permissions Hub or iOS Settings.
  • Upon account deletion, all associated health and profile data is purged from our active systems.
Android — Google Health Connect
  • Data Read (Read-Only): Heart Rate, Resting Heart Rate, Heart Rate Variability (HRV/RMSSD), and Steps are read from Google Health Connect with your explicit permission.
  • On-Device Processing: All Health Connect data is processed entirely on your device. It is never uploaded to Munay servers or shared with any third party.
  • Baseline Personalisation: First-recorded HRV and Resting Heart Rate values are saved locally on your device as personal baselines to improve the accuracy of your Stress and Readiness Scores over time.
  • You can revoke Health Connect access at any time in the Health Connect app or in your Android device settings.
  • Access is requested only after a clear explanation of what data is used and why. You may decline without affecting core safety features.
Android — BLE Wearable Heart Rate Sensor
  • Supported Devices: Munay connects to Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) heart rate sensors compatible with the standard Heart Rate GATT profile (e.g., Polar heart rate sensors). BLE hardware is not required to use Munay.
  • Data Collected: Real-time Heart Rate (BPM) and RR-interval (PPI) data. On Polar devices, RR-interval data is streamed via the Polar Measurement Data (PMD) proprietary protocol to improve HRV accuracy.
  • Journey-Only Activation: Bluetooth scanning and sensor connection are active only during an active safety journey via a foreground service. Bluetooth is automatically stopped when a journey ends.
  • Derived Metrics: HRV (RMSSD), Stress Score (1–100), and Readiness Score (1–100) are computed on-device from BLE RR-interval data using standard RMSSD calculations. These scores are personalised using a slow exponential moving average of your baseline HRV over time.
  • Data Priority: If Health Connect data is available, it takes precedence over BLE sensor data for display purposes. BLE fills in gaps when Health Connect data is unavailable or stale.
  • Permissions: Requires BLUETOOTH_SCAN and BLUETOOTH_CONNECT permissions on Android 12 and above. These permissions are never used for location determination (neverForLocation flag set).
  • No raw BLE sensor data is transmitted to Munay servers. Only journey biometric snapshots (BPM, HRV) may be transmitted as part of an active lone worker session if the enterprise Lone Worker Platform feature is enabled and you are enrolled in an organization.
