DOCUMENTS AND USER CONTENTBooks, chapters, text and other documents created with Simple Book Creator are stored locally on the user's device.Simple Book Creator and Joferval do not operate a cloud storage service for the contents created inside the application.The text of your books and documents is not intentionally uploaded to servers operated by Simple Book Creator or Joferval.Simple Book Creator does not require users to submit the contents of their books, chapters or documents to Joferval in order to use the application.When the user chooses to export, share, print or otherwise transfer a document, the destination and handling of that document depend on the option selected by the user and on the operating system, applications or third-party services used for that action.For example, a user may choose to save or share a PDF or EPUB file using Apple's system sharing interface, Files, AirDrop, email, cloud storage or another installed application. Any processing performed by those external services is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms.Users are responsible for maintaining appropriate backups of important documents.Deletion of the application, loss or damage of the device, operating-system failures, storage corruption or other technical problems may result in the loss of locally stored documents.Joferval cannot guarantee the recovery of locally stored content after such events.3. PERSONAL DATASimple Book Creator itself does not require users to provide their name, postal address, telephone number or other directly identifying personal information in order to use the application's writing features.However, the application includes third-party services that may automatically process certain information relating to the device, application usage, advertising and diagnostics.The fact that Simple Book Creator does not directly request personal information does not mean that no information whatsoever is processed by third-party services integrated into the application.4. ADVERTISINGThe free version of Simple Book Creator may display advertisements supplied through Google AdMob.Google and its advertising partners may process certain information in connection with advertising, measurement, fraud prevention, security, diagnostics and the operation of their advertising services.Depending on the user's device, location, privacy choices and applicable law, this information may include, among other things:• IP address, which may be used to estimate the general location of the device.• Device identifiers or application-related identifiers.• Advertising-related identifiers when available and permitted.• Information about advertisements displayed to the user.• Information about interactions with advertisements.• Application interactions and usage information.• Diagnostic information.• Crash-related information.• Performance information.• Other technical information necessary to provide and measure advertising services.Google and its partners determine their own processing of such information in accordance with their privacy policies, legal obligations and the privacy choices made by the user.Simple Book Creator does not sell the contents of users' books or documents to advertisers.Simple Book Creator does not provide the text written by users inside their books and documents to Google AdMob for advertising purposes.5. ADVERTISING CONSENT AND USER MESSAGING PLATFORMSimple Book Creator uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to manage privacy and advertising consent where required.Depending on the user's location and applicable privacy legislation, the application may display a privacy message asking the user to make choices regarding advertising and the processing of certain information.The choices available may include personalized advertising, non-personalized advertising or other advertising modes made available by Google according to the applicable legal framework.The exact options presented may vary depending on the user's region, Google's advertising systems and applicable law.Simple Book Creator checks whether advertising may be requested before attempting to display advertisements.Where required, users may also be provided with an option to review or modify their advertising privacy choices.6. APP TRACKING TRANSPARENCYSimple Book Creator does not request permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework to track users across applications and websites owned by other companies.Simple Book Creator therefore does not intentionally request access to the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) through an App Tracking Transparency authorization prompt.This does not mean that no technical or advertising information is processed at all.Google AdMob and associated services may still process information that is permitted by Apple, the user's privacy settings and applicable law in order to provide advertising, measurement, fraud prevention, security and related functionality.7. NON-PERSONALIZED AND LIMITED ADVERTISINGDepending on the user's consent choices, location and applicable law, Google may provide personalized ads, non-personalized ads, limited ads or other forms of advertising supported by its advertising systems.The availability and behavior of these advertising modes are determined by Google and may change over time.Simple Book Creator does not independently determine the advertising profile of individual users.8.

DATA SHARINGJoferval does not sell users' personal information.Joferval does not sell or commercially distribute the contents of users' books or documents.Information may nevertheless be processed or shared by integrated third-party services when necessary for advertising, purchasing, security, fraud prevention, diagnostics, legal compliance or technical operation.The scope of such processing is determined by the relevant service provider and the user's applicable privacy choices.11. CHILDREN'S PRIVACYSimple Book Creator is a general-purpose writing application and is not specifically designed to intentionally collect personal information from children.The application does not require users to create an account or provide directly identifying personal information in order to write documents.However, because the free version may contain third-party advertising, parents or legal guardians should supervise use of the application by minors when appropriate.Third-party services used by the application are governed by their own policies regarding minors, advertising and data processing.12. SECURITYSimple Book Creator is designed so that user-created books and documents remain stored locally unless the user deliberately exports or shares them.Nevertheless, no software, storage system or electronic device can be guaranteed to be completely secure.Users should protect their device using appropriate security measures provided by the operating system and should maintain backups of important documents.13. DATA RETENTIONSimple Book Creator does not maintain a Joferval-operated online database containing users' books or documents.Locally stored documents normally remain on the user's device until the user deletes them, deletes the application or they are otherwise removed through device or operating-system actions.Information processed by Apple, Google or advertising partners may be retained according to their respective privacy policies, legal obligations and retention schedules.14. INTERNATIONAL DATA PROCESSINGThird-party service providers such as Apple, Google and their partners may process information in countries other than the user's country of residence.Where this occurs, those companies are responsible for using the legal mechanisms and safeguards required under applicable law.15. USER RIGHTSDepending on the user's country or region, privacy laws may provide rights relating to personal information, such as rights of access, deletion, correction, restriction, objection or withdrawal of consent.Because Simple Book Creator does not operate user accounts or a server containing users' books and documents, Joferval may not possess personal information that can be directly associated with an individual user.Requests concerning information processed by Apple, Google or advertising partners may need to be directed to the relevant company. Where consent is managed through Google's User Messaging Platform, users may be able to modify their privacy choices through the privacy options made available inside the application.16. CHANGES TO THIS INFORMATIONThis legal and privacy information may be updated when Simple Book Creator changes its functionality, integrates new services, removes services, changes its advertising model or when legal or platform requirements change.The current version may therefore differ from previous versions.The date shown at the beginning of this document indicates the most recent update.17.
