Privacy Policy
Welcome to eNews App (the "App"). We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information related to your use of the App.
1. Information We Collect
Based on the App's current features, we may process the following types of information:
- Local device storage data (stored on your device): first-launch flag, selected interests, dark mode preference, language preference, and similar settings.
- Network request-related data: to deliver news content, the App sends requests to backend services. Such requests may include necessary network metadata (e.g., IP address, request time, and network environment), typically recorded in server logs.
- External link activity: when you open an article link, the App may launch your system browser or an external application.
At this time, we do not actively collect highly sensitive data such as your real name, national ID, contacts, precise location, microphone recordings, or camera content.
2. How We Use Information
- To provide news loading and display services.
- To save your personalized settings (language, theme, interests) and improve user experience.
- To maintain service stability and security (e.g., troubleshooting API errors and reviewing basic runtime logs).
3. Permissions and Device Capabilities
The App currently relies primarily on internet access capability (INTERNET) to retrieve news data and related resources.
If future versions introduce additional device permissions (such as camera or location), we will update this policy and provide clear notice describing the purpose and scope.
4. Data Storage and Retention
- Preference data is stored locally on your device (for example, via SharedPreferences).
- You can remove local data by uninstalling the App or clearing app data from your device settings.
- Server-side logs related to network requests are managed by the relevant service provider according to its retention rules.
5. Third-Party Services and External Links
The App retrieves content through network services and may include links to third-party websites or services. Once you leave the App, third-party privacy policies apply to their data handling practices. We encourage you to review those policies before use.
6. Sharing, Transfer, and Disclosure
We do not share, transfer, or publicly disclose your personal information except in the following cases:
- With your explicit consent;
- To comply with applicable laws, regulations, or lawful requests from authorities;
- To protect the lawful rights and safety of us, our users, or the public, as permitted by law.
7. Children's Privacy
If you are a minor, please use the App under the guidance of a parent or legal guardian. Guardians who have questions about children's data protection may contact us using the details below.
8. Your Rights
Subject to applicable laws and regulations, you may have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete personal information related to you;
- Withdraw consent where consent is the legal basis for processing;
- Stop using the App or uninstall it at any time.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy due to business changes, legal requirements, or product feature updates. The latest version will be published on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. For material changes, we will provide additional notice where appropriate.
Note: before publishing, replace placeholder details (such as contact email, legal entity name, and effective date) with your real information and complete a legal review based on your production features.
