Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 3, 2026

StoryForge ("we", "our", "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information the StoryForge app collects and how it is used.

1. Information We Collect

Without signing in, StoryForge works without any personal information: your stories, character selections, game progress, and settings are stored locally on your device only. A random device identifier is generated locally to enforce the daily free-story limit.

If you choose to sign in with Google, we additionally collect:

• Your Google account email address, display name, and profile picture URL (provided by Google when you consent to the sign-in). We never receive your Google password.
• Your Google Play purchase token and subscription status, used solely to verify and restore your Premium subscription.

The sign-in creates an account so that your subscription and benefits can be restored if you reinstall the app or switch devices.

2. How Story Data Is Processed

To generate story content, the app sends the current story context (your recent choices and the story text) to an AI service for the sole purpose of continuing your story. This data is transmitted in real time, is not stored by us, and is used only to generate the next part of the story you requested.

3. Storage and Security

Signed-in users: we store your account identifier (email, name, picture URL), your subscription record, and a session token on our server. Story content and game progress remain stored locally on your device. Sessions expire automatically after 90 days.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party. Google account information is processed in accordance with the Google Privacy Policy. Purchase verification involves Google Play's servers solely to validate your subscription.

5. Account Deletion

You can delete your account and all associated server-side data at any time:

• In the app: tap your account avatar (top of the home screen) → Delete account.
• On the web: visit our Account Deletion page.

Deleting your account removes your email, name, profile picture reference, session tokens, and subscription records from our servers. Your locally stored stories remain on your device.

6. Children's Privacy

StoryForge is intended for users aged 13 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page.
