Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 2024
Data Collection and Use
AladdinMobile is designed with member privacy as our top priority.
We operate no backend servers for this app. Data you enter is stored locally on your device. We do not receive it on our systems, we do not use it for our own analytics or marketing, and we do not sell it or route it through developer-controlled cloud services.
It stays on your phone or tablet for normal in-app use (for example, displaying or organizing what you saved) without being uploaded to us.
Official membership records for Aladdin Shriners are maintained by the organization under its own policies and are separate from data you type or save inside this app.
Information We Collect
We do not collect the information you enter in AladdinMobile. The app may let you store or display categories of information entirely on your device, such as:
- Member-related details: Names, contact fields, or notes you choose to save locally
- Communications: Content from messaging or announcements as kept in local app storage
- Preferences: Settings and choices that make the app work the way you want
None of this is uploaded to us, aggregated by us, or passed on to advertisers or data brokers. If you delete the app or clear app data, that locally stored information is removed from the device according to your system settings.
How We Use Your Information
Because we do not receive what you enter in the app, we do not use that data for our own purposes. The app processes your entries only on your device so you can use member features, events, communications, and settings as designed.
At a high level, the app is built to let you:
- Access member directory and fraternal tools you have saved or loaded for display locally
- See event information and notifications the app presents on your device
- Use communication features without us storing the content on our systems
- Adjust the experience through preferences stored on the device
Data Security
Information you keep in AladdinMobile benefits from your device’s security—such as your passcode, biometrics, and encryption at rest provided by the operating system. We recommend keeping your device software up to date and using a strong device passcode.
- App features are designed to work with data that stays on your device
- Updates to the app may include security improvements; install updates when offered
- If you lose a device, use standard tools (e.g., Find My, remote wipe) to protect access to local data
Data Sharing
We do not collect what you enter in the app, so we do not sell it, rent it, or pass it to advertisers, data brokers, or other third parties. We have no copy of your app-entered content to share.
If you use in-app features that let you contact another member or an official channel, any information you send is subject to that channel’s normal delivery (for example, standard email or messaging)—but that is not “collection” by us of your local app storage. Official Aladdin Shriners membership records and organizational policies are separate; direct questions about those records to the temple or headquarters.
Member Rights
Aladdin Shriners members have the right to:
- Access their personal information stored in the app
- Request corrections to inaccurate information
- Opt out of non-essential communications
- Request data deletion (subject to fraternal record-keeping requirements)
- Receive information about how their data is used
Children's Privacy
AladdinMobile is designed for adult members of Aladdin Shriners. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18 through this app. Because app-entered data stays on the member’s device and is not sent to us, parents or guardians with concerns should manage device and app access directly.
Third-Party Services
The app may rely on platform services from Apple or Google (for example, system APIs, notifications, or CarPlay) to function on your device. Those providers operate under their own privacy policies. We do not use those integrations to collect or upload your app-entered content to our servers.
Data Retention
Data you enter in the app remains on your device until you delete the app, clear app data, or replace the device. We do not retain copies, because we do not receive that information. Official organizational records are retained by Aladdin Shriners under its own schedule, independent of this app.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Members will be notified of significant changes through the app or other communication channels. Continued use of AladdinMobile after changes indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
