Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how the Velum application ("the App") handles your data. Our core philosophy is simple: what happens on your device stays on your device.
Velum is designed as a local-first EPUB reader. All core functionalities regarding reading processing occur entirely on your device:
To support the continued development of the App while offering it for free, we use third-party services that may collect information used to identify you. Specifically, we use Google AdMob for displaying advertisements.
Google AdMob may collect and process certain data (such as advertising IDs and interaction metrics) to serve personalized or non-personalized ads, depending on your device settings and region. You can learn more about how Google uses data when you use their partners' apps by visiting Google's Privacy & Terms.
The App requests certain device permissions to function correctly (such as storage permissions to scan and load EPUB files, and foreground service permissions for continuous background audio playback). These permissions are strictly utilized for their intended app functionalities and are never used to harvest or monitor personal data.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
If you have any questions or suggestions about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
