How Audira handles your information.

This Policy applies to Audira services that link to it, including the Audira website at audirabook.com and the Audira iOS app. It also applies when you contact us, create an account, use the reader or audio player, save books, buy or spend points, redeem rewards, or use admin or support tools.

Some third-party services have their own privacy practices. For example, Stripe handles web payment processing, Apple handles iOS in-app purchases, and Apple or Google may handle sign-in if you choose those options. Their policies apply to their handling of your information.

We collect information in a few ways:

• Directly from you, such as when you create an account, contact support, subscribe to emails, or buy points.
• Automatically when you use Audira, such as progress, playback position, saved books, points activity, cookies, local storage, logs, and device or browser information.
• From payment and platform providers, such as Stripe checkout status or Apple StoreKit purchase status.
• From sign-in providers, such as Apple or Google, when you choose to sign in through those services.

We use information to operate Audira and provide the experience you ask for. In particular, we use it to:

• Create, secure, and maintain accounts.
• Sync reading progress, listening progress, saved books, library lists, points, rewards, and chapter access across Audira surfaces.
• Operate free chapters, wait timers, point purchases, point grants, refunds or support adjustments, and promo codes.
• Process payments, confirm purchases, prevent duplicate purchase fulfillment, and resolve billing or support issues.
• Personalize catalog recommendations, genre highlights, resume banners, and in-app experiences.
• Send service messages, respond to support requests, and manage optional notifications or newsletter messages.
• Protect Audira, detect abuse, troubleshoot bugs, keep records, and comply with legal, tax, accounting, platform, and security obligations.

If privacy law in your location requires us to identify a legal basis for processing personal information, we generally rely on the following bases:

The website uses cookies and browser storage to keep you signed in, recognize guest sessions, remember progress, and support core product features. Examples include an Audira session cookie, a guest identifier cookie, and local progress storage. The iOS app uses device storage, UserDefaults, and the iOS Keychain for local state, preferences, and authentication session data.

You can adjust browser cookie settings or delete app data through your device, but disabling storage may prevent sign-in, progress syncing, guest chapter access, resume banners, or other parts of Audira from working correctly.

The iOS app asks for permission only when a feature needs it or when iOS requires permission before an optional feature can run.

Web point purchases are processed by Stripe Checkout. Stripe may collect payment card details, billing details, tax information, fraud-prevention information, and transaction records according to Stripe's own policies. Audira receives checkout and fulfillment details such as the checkout session, selected point pack, account ID, payment status, and points awarded. Audira does not store full credit card numbers.

iOS point purchases are processed through Apple's in-app purchase system. Apple handles the payment relationship with you. Audira uses purchase status and product information needed to award points and maintain your wallet and activity history.

Your Audira wallet may include point purchases, free rewards, promo-code awards, support grants, chapter unlocks, point spending, guest wallet migrations, and other wallet adjustments. These records help us keep your balance consistent across the website and iOS app, support refunds or account questions, and prevent duplicate purchase fulfillment.

We do not sell your personal information. We also do not currently use third-party advertising trackers in the Audira product. We share information only where reasonably needed to run Audira, fulfill your requests, protect the service, or comply with law.

We may also share information with professional advisers, law enforcement, regulators, courts, or other parties when required to comply with law, protect rights, prevent abuse, or enforce our terms. If Audira is involved in a merger, financing, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

We use technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information, including authenticated access, managed cloud infrastructure, encryption in transit, restricted admin access, signed session cookies, and secure storage for authentication tokens where applicable. No service can guarantee absolute security, so we encourage you to use a strong password, protect your devices, and contact us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide Audira, maintain your account and library, fulfill purchases, keep points and chapter access accurate, resolve disputes, maintain security, comply with law, and keep appropriate business records.

Some local information may remain on your device until you delete the app, clear browser storage, or sign out. Some transaction, tax, security, audit, or support records may need to be kept for longer even if you ask us to delete other account information.

• You can choose not to create an account, although some features, such as web point purchases and cross-device syncing, require sign-in.
• You can update or remove saved books and lists in the product where those controls are available.
• You can manage push notification permissions in iOS Settings and notification preferences inside Audira where available.
• You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in those messages.
• You can clear browser storage or delete the iOS app to remove local-only data from that device.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, deletion of, correction of, or a copy of certain personal information. You may also have rights to object to or restrict certain processing, opt out of certain sharing, or appeal a privacy decision. We do not knowingly sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Account deletion requests may cover account profile information, synced library state, reading and listening progress, saved books, preferences, and eligible points or reward history associated with your account. We may retain records we need for legal, tax, accounting, fraud-prevention, platform, purchase, security, audit, or dispute purposes.

To make a privacy request, email us at support@audirabook.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. We will respond as required by applicable law. If we cannot fulfill a request fully, we will explain why when required.

Audira is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to Audira, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to review and delete it where required.

Audira is operated from the United States. If you use Audira from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate. Those countries may have privacy laws that differ from the laws where you live.

We may update this Policy as Audira changes. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date above and take additional steps if required by law. Your continued use of Audira after an updated Policy becomes effective means the updated Policy applies to your use going forward.
