Privacy Policy
1. Who we are
Virra is an iOS app that analyses your short-form video content using artificial intelligence to help you improve performance before you post. The app is operated by Farasu Holdings ("we", "us"), which is the data controller for the personal data described here.
Privacy enquiries: [email protected]
2. What we collect and why
2.1 Account information
When you sign in with Apple, we receive your Apple user identifier and, if you choose to share them, your name and email address. Apple may give us a private relay address instead of your real one; that is your choice. We store the identifier so that your analyses and preferences stay attached to your account.
Legal basis: performance of a contract. You cannot use the app without an account.
2.2 Content preferences
During onboarding and in settings you can tell us your content category or niche, a written goal, your target region, how often you post and your biggest creator challenge. We use these only to personalise your analysis and hashtag suggestions. They are never used for advertising.
Legal basis: performance of a contract.
2.3 Videos you submit for analysis
When you submit a video, it is sent over an encrypted connection to our infrastructure and passed straight to Google's Gemini API for analysis. Once the analysis is complete the video file is deleted from Google's systems. We do not keep the video file on our own servers at any point.
We keep the results of the analysis (grades, notes, suggested hashtags) and a single still-frame thumbnail from your video, stored in our database and cloud storage (Supabase) and linked to your account.
Legal basis: performance of a contract.
2.4 Subscription information
Purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status, trial eligibility and renewals. We never receive or store your payment card details; RevenueCat gives us entitlement data only.
Legal basis: performance of a contract, and our legitimate interest in preventing unauthorised access to paid features.
2.5 Support correspondence
If you email us, we keep the correspondence for as long as needed to resolve your query and for a reasonable period afterwards.
Legal basis: legitimate interests (providing support).
