Effective Date: February 1, 2026

COMMITMENT & POLICY SCOPE

This Privacy Policy outlines how RoseNovels ("RoseNovels," "we," "us," or "our") collects, handles, processes, stores, and safeguards your personal data when you interact with our mobile applications, web portals, digital reading platforms, and related services (collectively, the "Services").

Respecting your personal privacy is a fundamental priority for us. By downloading, registering for, or utilizing RoseNovels, you confirm that you have read and comprehended the data practices described in this document. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, you must refrain from using our Services.

PERSONAL DATA GATHERING CHANNELS

We gather personal information through two main avenues: information you directly furnish to us, and technical data captured automatically during your interaction with our platform.

A. Information Direct From You

Account Setup Credentials: When establishing a RoseNovels profile, you provide your email address and basic profile attributes.

In-App Purchase Transactions: When acquiring reading coins or subscribing to premium tiers, payment processing is executed securely by authorized payment partners (such as Apple App Store, Google Play Billing, or Stripe). RoseNovels does not capture or store full financial credit card numbers. We only receive transaction tokens, package details, purchase timestamps, and currency amounts.

Support & Feedback Communications: Records of inquiries, feature requests, or correspondence submitted to our customer care team.

B. Automated Technical & Analytics Data

Reading Habits & Preferences: Bookmarked titles, chapter reading progress, time spent per novel, unlocked content, search queries, and library additions.

Device & Diagnostics Info: Device model, operating system version, system language, screen resolution, IP address, time zone, and mobile advertising identifiers (such as IDFA for iOS or GAID for Android).

Performance & Ad Metrics: Interaction statistics regarding promotional banners or rewarded video ads displayed within free reading tiers.

PURPOSES & LEGAL BASIS OF PROCESSING

We process collected data exclusively for legitimate operational reasons under applicable global privacy laws (including EU General Data Protection Regulation):

Service Provision & Order Fulfillment: To authenticate logins, maintain reading bookmarks, synchronize progress across devices, and deliver purchased items.

Personalized Recommendation Engine: To analyze reading history and suggest novels aligned with your literary preferences.

Service Enhancement & Stability: To diagnose app crashes, monitor server load, and develop user-friendly reading features.

Account Protection & Fraud Prevention: To monitor against illicit access, automated bot abuse, and unauthorized distribution of copyrighted novels.

User Communications: To send transactional messages (such as security alerts) and optional promotional news regarding new novel releases or special events.

ADVERTISING POLICIES & USER OPT-OUT CONTROLS

To support free reading content, RoseNovels may display advertisements.

Ad Personalization: Promotional banners may be tailored based on coarse device attributes and reading genres to make ads relevant to your interests.

Managing Ad Preferences: You retain full control over advertising settings. You can toggle off personalized ads directly inside RoseNovels by navigating to: Settings > Privacy > Ad Preferences.

Mobile OS Tracking Restrictions: You can also reset or limit your device advertising ID via your mobile operating system settings (iOS Tracking Permissions or Android Ads Privacy Settings).

DATA SHARING & THIRD-PARTY DISCLOSURES

RoseNovels does not sell your personal data to third parties. Data sharing is strictly limited to the following circumstances:

Vetted Service Providers: We partner with trusted infrastructure vendors to operate RoseNovels, including cloud hosting providers (e.g., AWS, Cloudflare), analytics services (e.g., Google Analytics), and payment gateways.

Legal & Compliance Demands: We may disclose information if required to comply with binding subpoenas, court orders, or legitimate governmental requests.

Business Restructuring: In the event of a corporate merger, acquisition, or asset transfer, user data may be transferred to the successor entity under equivalent privacy protections.

DATA SECURITY STANDARDS & ENCRYPTION

We employ industry-recognized administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect user data against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure:

All data transmissions between your app and server infrastructure are encrypted using SSL/TLS protocol standards.

Sensitive databases are protected at rest utilizing AES-256 encryption.

Access to user data is strictly restricted to authorized team members operating under confidential non-disclosure obligations.

RETENTION DURATIONS & ACCOUNT PURGING

We maintain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy:

Active Profiles: Data is retained for the duration of your active account.

Account Deletion Requests: Upon receiving a valid account deletion request, your personal profile data is purged or anonymized within 30 days, except where retention is mandated by law (e.g., financial audit records).

Automated Logs: Technical diagnostic logs are routinely overwritten within 12 months.

MINOR PROTECTION DIRECTIVES

RoseNovels is not directed toward children under 13 years of age (or the legal minimum age required in your region, such as 16 in the European Economic Area).

We do not knowingly gather personal information from minors. If we discover that a child under the required age has established an account without verified parental consent, we will promptly delete the account and associated records.

CROSS-BORDER DATA TRANSFERS

RoseNovels operates on global server networks. Consequently, your data may be processed and stored on servers located outside your country of residence (including in the United States). For users residing in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, international transfers are executed under approved legal safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).
