Phone Number Verification Feature
Our website and mobile app offers a feature that allows visitors to crosscheck phone numbers against a database of numbers potentially connected to scams. This service is designed to help users identify and avoid fraudulent activities. The database is a combination of various third-party sources, each with their own data categories, as indicated in the phone lookup results.
When you use this feature, we collect the phone number you input for the sole purpose of performing the crosscheck. We do not store this phone number after the check is complete. We also do not use the provided phone numbers for any other purpose, nor do we share them with third-parties.
If you believe that a phone number has been unjustly included in the database, you may submit a removal request. To do so, please follow our notice and takedown procedure as described here. In case the phone number qualifies as your personal data, you may invoke your Right of Rectification as described below under the section “Your Rights”.
Providing Data to Third-Parties
Except for the parties necessary to deliver the above-mentioned services, we do not, under any circumstance, provide your personal data to other companies or organisations unless we are required to do so by law (for example, when the police demand access to personal data in case of a suspected crime).
Our website and mobile application may potentially have social media buttons. These buttons are used by the providers of these services to collect your personal data. For the privacy policies of these providers, see the table under ‘How Advertisers Track’.

Vishnumaya Direct Mobile Applications
- Local Storage: Mobile apps often use built-in data storage options provided by the mobile operating system, such as User Defaults on iOS and Shared Preferences on Android. These mechanisms can store small data, similar to cookies, that persist across user sessions and can be used to save user preferences, login sessions, and other data.
- SDKs and APIs: Many mobile apps integrate third-party Software Development Kits (SDKs) that facilitate various functionalities, including advertising, analytics, and more. These SDKs can handle data tracking and management, allowing apps to collect, store, and utilise user data for targeted advertising and personalisation.
- Device IDs: Instead of cookies, mobile apps can track users using unique device identifiers, such as the Google Advertising ID (GAID) for Android devices and the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) for iOS devices. Users can reset these IDs, providing them with a degree of control, like clearing cookies.
- Token-based Authentication: Mobile apps often use tokens to maintain user sessions. Tokens are generated upon successful authentication and sent with subsequent requests to the server. This method is more secure and suited to the stateless nature of mobile interactions compared to traditional cookies.
- Third-party Tracking Services: Apps may also employ third-party services that utilize their own methods of user tracking and data collection. These might include embedded pixels, SDKs for analytics, or cloud-based user profile storages that aggregate data from multiple sources, including the app itself and other linked services.
Although mobile apps don’t use “cookies” in the traditional sense seen in web browsers, they have developed these alternative methods to achieve similar functionality for user identification, data storage, and personalised advertising. These mechanisms help advertisers deliver targeted content effectively within mobile app ecosystems.
By installing the Vishnumaya Direct mobile app, you also agree to allow us to enable the methods mentioned above so that advertisers may provide you with targeted advertisements. Where we are legally obliged to obtain your consent before doing so, we will ensure that we obtain such consent. We do not aggregate user behaviour data captured through the above methods to be sold as audience data for retargeting.
