Love Story (version 3.0 and later) lets you read the world's most famous love legends, each with its own gallery of classic paintings, in a calm night-reading design. You do not need to register, create a profile, or give us any personal details to read.
- No account required: We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, or social media logins.
- Everything stays on your device: The stories and paintings are built into the app. Your favorites, the last story you opened, and your reading text size are saved only on your phone.
- No server data collection: NovaRadix Technology does not operate servers that collect, store, track, or sell your personal data or reading habits.
- Supported by ads: The app is free and shows ads from Google AdMob, delivered through Google's Mobile Ads SDK. Google may process standard device identifiers and network information to deliver and measure those ads.
1. Who we are
This Privacy Policy applies to the Android mobile application Love Story (package name: com.amazing.lovestory), developed and published by NovaRadix Technology (“NovaRadix”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), an independent technology studio registered in India.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, contact us by email at novaradix@gmail.com.
2. Your data stays on your device
All 18 stories and their illustrations are packaged inside the app, so reading works fully offline. The app does not download stories from, or upload your activity to, any NovaRadix server.
The only information the app keeps is stored in its private, sandboxed storage on your device:
| Data stored locally | Why it is needed | How to remove it |
|---|---|---|
| Favorites | Remembers the stories you marked with the heart so they appear under “Your favorites”. | Tap the heart again on a story, clear app storage, or uninstall the app. |
| Last opened story | Powers the “Continue reading” shortcut on the home screen. | Clear app storage or uninstall the app. |
| Reader text size | Remembers the text size you chose with the A− / A+ buttons in the reader. | Change it any time in the reader; reset when app storage is cleared or the app is uninstalled. |
| Temporary share image | When you share a story, a copy of its painting is written to the app's private cache so the app you share to can read it. | Overwritten on the next share; removed when the cache is cleared or the app is uninstalled. |
| Ad frequency counter | A non-personal counter in memory that limits how often full-screen ads appear. | Resets every time the app is closed. |
3. Information we do not collect
We believe reading is private. We do not collect, harvest, or store any of the following:
- No identity or contact details: no name, email address, postal address, phone number, or profile picture.
- No accounts or social logins: there is no sign-in of any kind.
- No location tracking: the app does not request GPS, precise, or background location.
- No personal files or media: the app does not read your photos, videos, audio, contacts, or documents.
- No camera, microphone, or sensors: none of these are accessed.
- No reading profile: we do not record what you read, how long you read, or what you share.
4. Sharing
When you tap Share, Android's share sheet opens with the story's title, a short message, and one of its paintings. Nothing is sent until you pick an app and confirm there. What happens next is governed by the privacy policy of the app you choose (for example WhatsApp or Gmail).
The About screen can also open Google Play, our website, or your email app, but only when you tap those links.
5. Advertising (Google AdMob)
Love Story is free. To support it, the app shows ads from Google AdMob, operated by Google LLC, using Google's Mobile Ads SDK (the “Next-Gen” SDK). Ads appear as banners on the story list and favorites screens, as full-screen ads at natural breaks (for example when opening a story or the image viewer), and as an ad when you return to the app.
To serve and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google's SDK may process the following standard technical data:
- your device's Advertising ID;
- your IP address, used to estimate a general location such as country or city;
- device details such as model, operating system version, language, and basic network and phone-type information;
- ad interaction and diagnostic data such as impressions, clicks, and errors.
Google does not receive your favorites, the stories you open, or any other data stored inside the app. Google acts as an independent controller of the data it processes; see Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Your ad choices:
- Reset or delete your Advertising ID in Settings → Privacy → Ads on your Android device.
- Turn off personalized ads and review ad settings in Google My Ad Center.
6. Permissions
Love Story requests no runtime permissions: you will never see a permission prompt. The app and the libraries it uses declare only these install-time permissions:
| Permission | Added by | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
android.permission.INTERNET |
Love Story | Loads ads. Stories and paintings never need the internet. |
com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID |
Love Story / Google Mobile Ads SDK | Lets the ads SDK read the Advertising ID for ad measurement and fraud prevention. |
android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE |
Google Mobile Ads SDK | Checks whether a connection is available before requesting an ad. |
android.permission.READ_BASIC_PHONE_STATE |
Google Mobile Ads SDK | Reads basic, non-identifying information such as the network type to tailor ad requests. It does not give access to your phone number, calls, or device IDs. |
android.permission.WAKE_LOCK, android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE |
Android WorkManager (used by the ads SDK) | Let short background tasks, such as sending ad measurement data, finish reliably. |
The app does not request camera, microphone, contacts, calendar, SMS, call logs, storage, or location permissions.
7. Data retention and deletion
Because we do not run user accounts or receive your reading data, we hold no personal records about you to retain, sell, or delete. You stay in control:
- In the app: tap the heart on a story to remove it from your favorites.
- Clear storage: go to Settings → Apps → Love Story → Storage & cache → Clear storage to erase everything the app has saved.
- Uninstall: uninstalling Love Story permanently removes all of its local data.
- Advertising data: data processed by Google is kept according to Google's retention policies. You can reset or delete your Advertising ID in your device settings.
8. Security
- On-device isolation: the app's data sits in Android's sandboxed app storage, which other apps cannot read.
- Secure sharing: shared images are passed through Android's FileProvider with temporary, read-only access for the app you choose.
- No central database: there is no NovaRadix server holding your data, so it cannot be exposed in a server breach.
- Encrypted ad traffic: the Google Mobile Ads SDK communicates over HTTPS.
No system is perfectly secure, so we recommend keeping Android up to date and protecting your phone with a screen lock.
9. Children's privacy
Love Story is a general-audience app and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 where local law requires). Some stories deal with mature themes such as war and tragedy. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, email novaradix@gmail.com and we will help.
10. Your rights (GDPR, CCPA, India DPDPA)
- EEA, UK and Switzerland (GDPR / UK GDPR): you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. Because NovaRadix stores no personal data on servers, you can exercise erasure and restriction directly by clearing the app's storage or uninstalling it. For advertising data, Google is an independent controller; manage your choices through Google's settings above.
- California, USA (CCPA / CPRA): NovaRadix does not sell your personal information. To limit cross-context behavioral advertising by Google, reset or delete your Advertising ID, or turn off personalized ads in Google My Ad Center.
- India (Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023): you have the right to information about processing, correction and erasure, and grievance redressal. All app data stays on your device under your control.
To exercise any right or raise a grievance, email novaradix@gmail.com.
11. Changes to this policy
We update this policy when the app, its SDKs, or the law change. The latest version is always on this page with its effective date at the top. This version covers Love Story 3.0, which introduced the new Midnight Romance design and moved advertising to Google's Next-Gen Mobile Ads SDK.
