Privacy Policy

Effective date:

This Privacy Policy describes how the developer of KIBI ("we", "us", or the "Developer") collects, uses, and shares information when you use the mobile application Аудиокниги и книги: читалка (Books & Audiobooks) (the "App") on iOS and Android. By using the App you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

Account information. When you sign in with Google, we receive your email address and display name. Every account (including guest accounts) is assigned a user identifier that we use to store your data.

Library and activity data. Your saved books, listening and reading progress, bookmarks, reading goals and streaks, selected recommendation categories, search history, and reviews you write are stored so the App can function and sync across your devices.

Purchase information. We process your subscription status and purchase history (for example, whether a subscription is active) to unlock premium features. Payments themselves are handled by Apple App Store or Google Play; we never receive your payment card details.

Usage data. We collect information about how you interact with the App (for example, screens viewed and features used) for analytics and to improve the App.

Device identifiers and advertising data. With your permission (on iOS, via the App Tracking Transparency prompt), we and our advertising partners collect device advertising identifiers (such as the IDFA on iOS or the Advertising ID on Android) and advertising interaction data to show and measure ads. This data may be used to track you across apps and websites owned by other companies.

Diagnostics. We collect crash reports and performance data to keep the App stable.

2. How We Use Information

We use the information described above to: provide and operate the App; sync your library and progress across devices; personalize book recommendations; process and verify subscriptions; show advertising in the free version of the App; measure and improve performance and stability; and respond to support requests.

3. Advertising and Tracking

The free version of the App shows ads served by Google AdMob, including banner, interstitial, and rewarded ads. On iOS, we ask for your permission through the App Tracking Transparency framework before using your device's advertising identifier for tracking. If you decline, you will still see ads, but they will not be personalized using cross-app tracking. You can change your choice at any time in your device settings (iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking; Android: Settings > Google > Ads).

4. Third-Party Services

We rely on the following service providers, which process data on our behalf or for their own purposes as independent controllers:

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with the service providers listed above, when required by law, or to protect our rights, users, or the public.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

We keep your data for as long as your account exists. You can delete your account at any time in the App (Profile > Delete Account); this permanently removes your account data, including your library, progress, and reviews, from our systems. You can also request deletion by emailing us at [email protected].

7. Security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS) and stored with reputable cloud providers. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

8. Children

The App is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

9. International Transfers

Our service providers may process data on servers located in various countries. Where required, transfers rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses implemented by those providers.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, use the in-app controls or contact us at [email protected]. If you are in the EEA or UK, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version at this URL and update the effective date above. Material changes may additionally be announced in the App.
