Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you read stories on .

Effective Date & Last Updated

Introduction

Welcome to — a free, ad-supported platform for leisure reading, including casual fiction and web novels. We respect your privacy and are committed to transparency about how your data is handled.

This Privacy Policy applies to all users accessing our website at . By using the site, you agree to the practices described herein. If you do not agree, please discontinue use.

Information We Collect

We collect only what’s necessary to operate and improve the service:

  • Anonymous usage data: Page views, session duration, and navigation paths — collected via lightweight analytics (no personal identifiers).
  • Device & browser information: Type, OS, screen resolution, and language — used solely for compatibility and layout optimization.
  • Cookies & local storage: For basic functionality (e.g., theme preference, reading progress). No third-party tracking cookies are used without consent.
  • Ad-related data: When displaying Google AdSense ads, anonymized behavioral signals may be shared per Google’s Ad Personalization Policy. We do not sell or share personal data with advertisers.

How We Use Your Information

  • Deliver and personalize your reading experience (e.g., resume last chapter, dark mode toggle).
  • Optimize site performance, load speed, and mobile responsiveness.
  • Support ad delivery through Google AdSense — compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and IAB TCF v2.
  • Prevent abuse (e.g., automated scraping) using rate-limiting and bot detection — no IP logging beyond temporary cache.

Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. Limited sharing occurs only as follows:

  • Google AdSense: Serves non-sensitive, anonymized ad requests. No PII is transmitted. You may opt out via Google’s Ad Settings.
  • Analytics providers: Only aggregated, anonymized metrics (e.g., “52% of readers use Chrome”) — no user-level data retained.
  • Legal compliance: We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or to protect our rights or safety.

Your Rights & Choices

  • Opt-out of analytics: Disable JavaScript or use browser privacy tools (e.g., uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger).
  • Manage cookies: Adjust browser settings or click “Reject All” in our cookie banner.
  • Data access/deletion: While we store no account or profile data, you may request confirmation of data handling by contacting .
  • GDPR/CCPA: As we process no personal data beyond strictly functional needs, formal DSR mechanisms are not applicable — but we honor all good-faith requests promptly.

Security & Retention

All data is stored temporarily in memory or browser storage — never on servers. No passwords, emails, names, or payment details are collected or retained. Session data expires automatically after 30 days of inactivity. Our infrastructure uses HTTPS (TLS 1.3) and security headers to prevent interception or injection.

Children’s Privacy

is intended for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such data, contact immediately for prompt deletion.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect operational or legal changes. The version is always available here. Continued use after updates constitutes acceptance.
