Privacy Policy for "Noti"

This Privacy Policy describes how "Noti" (hereinafter, "Noti" or "the Application"), the sole and exclusive property of The Application Owner, manages its users' information. At Noti, your privacy is our highest priority.

1. Noti Privacy Principles

Limited Data Collection: Noti is designed to operate with minimal data collection. Creating an account is optional. However, Noti processes limited security and technical data necessary to operate the service for all users, and limited account information only if you choose to create an account using Sign in with Apple.
Technical Infrastructure: The application uses technical infrastructure to facilitate RSS feed retrieval, normalization, caching, account authentication, and display. Any technical data processed is strictly limited to what is necessary to provide the service and is not used for commercial purposes, marketing, profiling, or data monetization.
No Advertising: Noti does not contain any form of advertising. Therefore, we do not use ad tracking services that may collect data for advertising purposes.

2. Information We Collect

Noti processes limited information in the following situations:

For all users: an Apple attestation identifier or similar attestation data required to verify app integrity, help identify the requesting app instance or user for security purposes, and operate the service safely.
If you create an account using Sign in with Apple: your first name, last name, and email address as provided by Apple during the account creation flow.
If you create an account using Sign in with Apple: your email address, Apple user identifier, and authentication tokens, which Noti stores as needed to create, maintain, and protect your account.
If you use commenting features: your username or display name, comment text, the related article or post identifier, your account or user identifier, timestamps, and comment status information such as whether a comment has been edited or deleted.
Technical data required for the application to operate properly.

The Apple attestation identifier is required for all users but is used only transiently for verification and is not retained by Noti after that verification is completed. First name and last name received from Apple are used only during the sign-in flow and are not retained by Noti after account creation. If you do not create an account, Noti is not designed to retain personal data beyond the limited technical data needed to operate the service.

For service performance and delivery, Noti may also temporarily store or cache limited content made available in public RSS feeds, such as titles, excerpts or summaries, links, publication dates, source names, author bylines, image URLs, and similar feed metadata. When a feed provides unusually long descriptions, Noti may truncate those fields for excerpt-only display. This feed content is used solely to operate and speed up the RSS reader service and is not treated by Noti as personal data collected from users.

If you post a comment in Noti, that comment may be visible to other users together with your username or display name and related comment metadata, such as the time of posting and the associated article or post reference.

3. Information We Generally Do Not Collect

Outside of the limited account information described above, Noti is not designed to collect, store, or process the following personal or usage information:

Geographic location.
Reading habits, visited articles, or interactions within the application for advertising or profiling purposes.
Advertising identifiers or advertising profile data.
Any other personal information not required to provide the service you request.

4. How We Use Information

Any data processed by Noti is used solely to:

Create and manage your optional user account.
Authenticate users and maintain secure sessions.
Validate app integrity, verify attestation data, and protect against unauthorized access.
Operate comment features, display comments to other users, and keep comment records associated with the relevant article or post.
Review reported comments, enforce community rules, remove comments, and suspend or ban accounts involved in abuse or violations of our terms.
Retrieve and display RSS feeds and operate the application.
Respond to support or privacy requests you send to us.

The Application Owner does not use this data for commercial purposes, user profiling, behavioral advertising, or data monetization.

5. Account Deletion

You can delete your Noti account directly from the Settings page inside the application. When you request account deletion, the account data stored by Noti is deleted immediately, including comments associated with that account.

6. Third-Party Services

When using Noti, you may interact with third-party services in the following ways:

Apple Attestation and Verification Services: Noti may rely on Apple-provided attestation or verification mechanisms to validate app integrity and support security functions for all users. Apple may process related information according to Apple's own privacy policy.
Sign in with Apple: If you choose to create an account using Apple, Apple may provide certain account information to Noti and may process information according to Apple's own privacy policy. The Application Owner does not control Apple's independent processing of your information.
RSS Feeds: The application accesses public RSS feeds from news websites and may temporarily store or cache the limited feed content made available by those sources in order to deliver the service more efficiently. Data collection and processing by these news websites are governed by their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of the RSS sources you select from the application's directory.
Source-Hosted Media: If an RSS feed includes image URLs or similar media URLs and Noti displays that media using the original source URL, the publisher or its service providers may receive technical request information from your device, such as IP address, user agent, and related request metadata, according to their own privacy policies.
Opening Articles in External Browser: When you tap an article, it opens in your device's default web browser (such as Safari on iOS or Chrome on Android), or in an in-app browser (such as SFSafariViewController or Chrome Custom Tabs). These browsers and the websites you visit may collect information according to their own privacy policies and your device settings. The Application Owner has no control over data collection by these third parties.
Distribution Platforms: The platforms through which you download the application (such as Google Play Store or Apple App Store) may collect usage data, transactions, or device information in accordance with their own privacy policies. These platforms operate autonomously and independently of the will and control of The Application Owner.

7. Information Security

Noti uses reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the limited account and technical data it processes. While no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, we work to safeguard our systems and recommend keeping your device secure and updated.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

The Application Owner may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the bottom. We recommend reviewing this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Continued use of Noti after any modification to this Privacy Policy will constitute acceptance of such changes.
