ZARVYON is a personal safety and emergency assistance platform designed to help users protect themselves during dangerous, risky, or emergency situations. The application includes emergency alert systems, trusted contact notifications, live location sharing, anti-theft protection, emergency evidence recording, and safety monitoring modes.

1. PRIVACY BY DESIGN PRINCIPLE
ZARVYON has been designed following the “Privacy by Design” principle.
The application does not continuously monitor, record, or share user data unless the user explicitly activates a protection mode, emergency function, or safety feature.
Location tracking, audio recording, Bluetooth monitoring, and emergency sharing remain inactive until triggered by user interaction, authorized configuration, or emergency detection logic.
ZARVYON is designed exclusively for personal safety and emergency response purposes and not for advertising profiling, behavioral tracking, or surveillance activities.
