Privacy Policy

We keep this short and plain. Gistbite ("we") respects your privacy and collects only what's needed to run the service.

What we collect

• Account details — your name and email when you register.
• Usage data — reading progress, highlights, quiz attempts, streaks, and preferences (such as theme and language), so the app remembers where you are.
• Technical data — basic logs (e.g. IP address, browser type) for security and reliability.

How we use it

• To provide and personalize your reading experience.
• To maintain accounts, security, and the leaderboard.
• To communicate essential service messages (e.g. password resets).

What we don't do

We don't sell your personal data. We don't share it except with service providers strictly necessary to operate the app (such as hosting and email delivery), under appropriate safeguards.

Cookies

We use cookies that are essential for login sessions and saving your preferences. We do not use them to track you across other websites.

Your rights

You can access, correct, or delete your account data at any time from your account page, or by contacting us. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR.

Data retention

We keep your data while your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data except where we're required to keep limited records by law.
