Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The date of the latest revision will always appear at the top.
Certain features, such as access to more than five stories per month or the ability to save favorite stories, are gated behind a parental subscription. These features are only accessible through the Parent Section and require adult verification.
Story Usage Data – We track how many stories are viewed each month on a per-device basis to enforce access limits. No identifiable information is collected for this purpose.
Subscribed users can access up to 100 stories per month and unlock additional features, such as saving favorite stories. Free users may view up to 5 stories total without subscribing.
