Privacy policy

App: Text Viewer
Developer: 허경돈
Contact: discuis010@naver.com
Effective date: 2026-10-16

1. Documents and drafts

The app reads selected documents and your writing on your device. Opened and manually saved document copies, file access handles, reading positions, bookmarks and settings may be stored locally. Your writing is not sent to a developer server.

2. Collection and external services

Reading, writing and document storage work on your device without a developer account or manuscript upload. Google AdMob provides optional menu banners using internet access. This version has no in-app purchases. The app does not request contacts, precise location, microphone or broad storage access.

Google AdMob may process IP addresses (including approximate location), device or advertising identifiers, ad interactions, diagnostics and performance data to serve ads, measure performance and prevent fraud. Consent and privacy options are handled through Google’s consent system where required. Use “Ad privacy choices” in the menu when it is available.

The app stores the time of its last banner request privately on your device to limit ads to at most one request per 24 hours. Failed requests also count; no ad is guaranteed. Clearing app data or reinstalling resets this local record. Documents, titles and manuscript text are never passed to the ad code. There is no payment processing or purchase tracking in this version.

Google privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Read aloud sends spoken sentences to a voice engine installed on your device. Voices that require a network connection are excluded. Separate processing by the voice engine or cloud file providers you select is governed by their own policies.

3. Retention and deletion

Editing is not automatically saved. There are no timed temporary saves, recovery copies or unsaved-change confirmation dialogs. Save TXT overwrites the selected writable TXT; Save as… chooses a destination. The app may keep copies of opened or manually saved documents and local file access handles for recent files. Older local data is not automatically deleted when updating.

Clearing app data in device settings or uninstalling the app deletes its internal drafts, settings and copies. Exported TXT files and originals remain; delete them at their saved locations if needed. App data is configured to be excluded from automatic operating-system backup and device transfer.

4. Protection and export

Document copies are stored in app-private storage. Scripts inside documents are not executed. External web navigation and unnecessary web permissions are blocked. The app does not provide separate document encryption or an app lock. Exported TXT files are plain text; check the access and sync settings of their destination.

5. Contact and changes

Use the email address above for privacy or app questions. The email address and content you voluntarily send are used to respond, retained as needed for that response, then deleted. You can describe an issue without sending an entire private manuscript.

This policy and its effective date will be updated if data handling changes.
