Uebo Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") explains how the developer of Uebo ("We", "Us", "Our") collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you ("User", "You") use the Uebo application ("App")—a book note-taking tool for capturing reading insights, digitizing notes, and tracking reading progress. This Policy is an integral part of the Uebo User Agreement; by using the App, You acknowledge that You have read, understood, and agreed to the practices described herein.
1. Information We Collect
We only collect information necessary to provide, maintain, and improve Uebo’s services, which fall into the following categories:
1.1 Information You Provide Voluntarily
Account Registration Information: If You register an account to use features like cross-device note syncing, You may provide information such as your email address, username, and password (passwords are stored in encrypted form to ensure security).
User-Generated Content: This includes all content You create or upload through the App, such as captured book pages, handwritten note photos, typed core ideas, personal reflections, and template usage records (You retain ownership of this content).
1.2 Automatically Collected Information
When You use the App, We may collect technical information automatically to ensure service stability and optimize user experience, including:
Device Information: Device model, operating system (OS) version, unique device identifiers (e.g., IMEI, UUID), network type, and screen resolution—used to adapt the App to different devices and fix compatibility issues.
Usage Data: App launch time, feature usage frequency (e.g., how often You use the photo capture function or progress chart), and error logs—analyzed to improve feature performance and resolve technical glitches.
Location Information (Optional): Only if You explicitly enable location permissions (e.g., for region-specific content recommendations), We may collect approximate location data (based on IP address or Wi-Fi) — You can disable this permission at any time in your device settings.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information solely for legitimate purposes related to Uebo’s services, including:
Providing Core Services: Syncing your notes across devices, generating reading progress charts, and storing your user-generated content to ensure You can access your data anytime, anywhere.
Improving the App: Analyzing usage data to optimize UI design, enhance feature functionality (e.g., refining note templates for different book types), and fix technical errors.
Account Security: Verifying your identity during login, detecting and preventing unauthorized account access, and addressing security breaches (e.g., notifying You of unusual login activity).
Communicating with You: Sending in-App notifications or emails about service updates, policy changes, or responses to your inquiries (You can unsubscribe from non-essential communications via email settings).
Complying with Legal Obligations: Disclosing information if required by law, court orders, or government regulations (e.g., responding to lawful requests from law enforcement agencies).
3. How We Protect Your Information
We take reasonable technical and administrative measures to safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or destruction:
Data Encryption: User passwords, account information, and note content are encrypted using industry-standard protocols (e.g., AES-256) during transmission (via HTTPS) and storage.
Access Controls: Only authorized personnel (e.g., technical staff responsible for service maintenance) have limited access to your information, and they are bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
Security Updates: We regularly update the App’s security systems, conduct vulnerability scans, and train employees on data protection practices to address emerging security risks.
Data Retention: We retain your information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes stated in this Policy or as required by law. After You delete your account or terminate use of the App, We will anonymize or delete your personal data (except for data required to be retained by law, which will be stored securely until the legal obligation expires).
4. Disclosure of Your Information
We will never sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties for commercial purposes. We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:
With Service Providers: We may engage trusted third-party vendors to assist with service operations (e.g., cloud storage providers for note data, email service providers for communications) — these vendors are contractually obligated to protect your information and only use it to perform services on Our behalf.
With Your Consent: We will share your information with third parties only if You explicitly authorize it (e.g., sharing notes with a friend via a linked social media account).
For Legal Reasons: We may disclose information to comply with applicable laws, respond to lawful requests, or protect Our legal rights (e.g., preventing fraud or defending against legal claims).
5. Your Rights Regarding Your Information
You have the following rights to control your personal information, and We will assist You in exercising these rights promptly:
Access and Correction: You can view your account information and user-generated content at any time through the App’s "My Profile" or "Notes" section. To correct inaccurate information (e.g., updating your email address), You can edit it directly in the App or contact Us via the email below.
Deletion: You can delete individual notes or your entire account in the App. If You delete your account, We will permanently delete your personal data (except as required by law) within 30 business days.
Withdrawal of Consent: You can disable permissions (e.g., location, camera, storage) in your device settings at any time — note that disabling certain permissions may affect the functionality of related features (e.g., disabling camera access will prevent You from capturing book pages).
Data Portability: If You request it, We will provide your user-generated content (e.g., notes, progress records) in a machine-readable format (e.g., CSV, PDF) to facilitate transfer to another service provider.
6. Third-Party Links and Services
The App may contain links to third-party websites or services (e.g., book recommendation platforms, social media sharing tools). This Policy does not apply to these third parties — We are not responsible for their privacy practices. We recommend that You review the privacy policies of any third-party services You access through the App.
7. Children’s Privacy
Uebo is not intended for use by children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required by local law for using such services). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If We discover that We have collected information from a child without parental consent, We will delete the data immediately. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided information to Us may contact Us to request deletion.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time to reflect changes in laws, regulations, or Uebo’s services. When We make material changes, We will notify You through prominent means (e.g., in-App pop-up notifications, emails to registered users) at least 7 days before the updated Policy takes effect. Your continued use of the App after the effective date of the updated Policy constitutes Your acceptance of the changes.
