Shelf Conscious collects no data. No accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking. The app never connects to the internet. Everything you do in it stays on your phone.
What stays on your phone
The app saves a few things on your device so it works the way you left it: the cover you're showing, your favourites, books you make in the Studio, your settings and your place in each book. This information is stored only on your phone, inside the app. It is never sent to us or to anyone else. Deleting the app deletes it.
Photos
If you save a wallpaper, the app asks for permission to add images to your photo library. It can't see, read or change any of your existing photos. You can change this at any time in Settings › Privacy & Security › Photos.
Camera and microphone
The app doesn't use the camera or the microphone.
Children
The app doesn't collect information from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
