NarAI is an audio app that lets you listen to short narrated book summaries. This policy explains what information the app collects, why, who it is shared with, and the choices you have. We have kept it plain and specific to what the app actually does.
| Information | When it is collected | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Google account details — your email address, name, and Google account ID | When you sign in with Google | To create and sign you into your NarAI account. Sign-in is required to use the app. |
| Listening progress — which books and chapters you have opened and where you left off | As you use the app | So you can resume where you stopped, across devices. |
| Purchase status — whether you hold a Premium purchase, the date of purchase, the date your Premium term ends, and a Google Play purchase token | When you buy Premium | To unlock Premium on your account and restore it if you reinstall or change phones. |
| Notification device record — a push token, a device ID, and basic device information (device model, OS version, app version, language, time zone, and approximate country from your IP address) | When you first open the app. The notification permission controls only whether notifications are shown. | To send you notifications about new content. You can decline or turn these off at any time. |
| Usage timestamps — when your account was created and when you last opened the app | Automatically | To understand active use and keep your account in good order. |
What we do not collect: we do not collect your location, contacts, photos, files, or microphone audio. We do not record audio. We do not show advertisements inside the app. We do not sell your personal information.
If you contact support, we receive whatever you include in your message (for example your phone number if you ask for a call back). We use it only to respond to you.
A note on Android permissions. The app's permission list may include microphone and storage permissions. These are added by the audio playback library the app is built with and are not used by NarAI — the app never requests microphone access at runtime and never records anything.
Premium is sold as a one-time purchase through Google Play Billing. Google processes the payment; NarAI never receives your card, bank, or UPI details.
When you start a purchase we pass Google Play an internal NarAI account identifier (not your email) so the purchase can be matched to your account. From Google we receive a purchase token, the product, and the purchase state, which we use to unlock Premium.
Refunds are handled through Google Play under Google's refund policy. If you have a problem with a purchase, contact us at the address above and we will help.
We share information with the service providers that run the app, and with Meta for advertising measurement:
| Provider | What they receive | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Google (Sign-In and Play Billing) | Your Google account sign-in; your purchase; an internal NarAI account identifier attached to the purchase | Account sign-in and payment processing. Governed by Google's Privacy Policy. |
| Supabase (our database and authentication provider) | Your account details, listening progress, and purchase status | Securely storing your account data on Supabase's cloud infrastructure. |
| OneSignal (push notifications) | A push token, a OneSignal device ID, and basic device information (model, OS version, app version, language, time zone, approximate country) — not your email or name | Delivering notifications. Registered when you first open the app. |
| Meta (Facebook) (advertising measurement) | A pseudonymised (SHA-256 hashed) version of your email address, your NarAI account ID, the type of event (sign-up or purchase), and for purchases the price paid | To measure whether our advertising on Meta platforms is effective. Sent from our own server; your raw email address is never sent to Meta. |
Advertising measurement. NarAI shows no ads inside the app. We run ads on Meta platforms, and to measure them we send Meta the pseudonymised data described above. This is an advertising/marketing use of your data. We do not currently offer an opt-out from advertising measurement; you can ask us to delete your data instead (Section 5).
These providers are not permitted to use your information for purposes beyond providing their service. We do not sell your information.
We keep your account information for as long as your account exists. Listening progress and purchase status are kept so your Premium and your place in each book are preserved across devices and reinstalls. If you delete your account, we delete your information as described below.
You can request deletion of your NarAI account at any time:
Within 30 days we will delete your account record, listening progress, and purchase status from our database, remove your device from our notification provider, and confirm by email.
Please note:
All information travels between the app and our servers over encrypted (HTTPS) connections. Your data is stored with access controls that restrict it to your own account. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.
NarAI is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Our service providers may store and process information on servers outside your country, including outside India. By using the app you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in those locations.
If we change this policy, we will update the effective date at the top of this page.
