PRIVACY POLICY FOR AiRO INTERACTIVE STORYTELLING APP
Last Updated: September 2025
1. Introduction
AiRO is a local-only storytelling app designed with privacy at its core. Your stories and creative data remain entirely on your device. We do not collect, store, or access your personal content.
By using AiRO, you acknowledge this local-only privacy model and understand that your interactions with external AI providers are governed by their own privacy policies.
2. Local Data Storage
What the App Stores on Your Device
- Story templates you select
- Choices and decisions made in stories
- Generated story fragments and narratives
- Custom prompts or ideas you create
- Session data and progress
- Language preferences
- AI provider preferences (e.g., OpenAI, Google Gemini)
- Story style modifications
- Audio and text-to-speech settings
What We Do Not Collect
- Your story content
- Choices, prompts, or generated text
- Personal data, conversation history, or analytics
All data remains on your device only. We never access or transmit your stories.
3. Use of Local Data
Your local data supports app functionality:
- Generating personalized story content
- Maintaining continuity across sessions
- Enabling "undo", "new choices," and "branching" features
- Preserving your preferences and story settings
4. AI Service Integration
When you enable AI features, your device connects directly to the provider you choose.
We are not involved in this exchange. Prompts you send and responses you receive are subject to the provider's privacy policy.
5. No Data Collection by AiRO
- We do not track usage, analytics, or story content.
- We do not receive or store conversation history.
- All storage uses local SQLite databases on your device.
- No cloud backup, telemetry, or remote logging is used.
6. Children's Privacy
Since we do not collect personal data, there are no special privacy concerns. However:
- Parents should supervise children's use of AI providers.
7. Your Control Over Data
- Full ownership of your stories and settings.
- Delete individual stories in the app, clear all data in device settings, or uninstall to remove everything.
- No need to contact us for deletion — you have complete control.
8. AI Provider Data Usage
When using AI services, prompts and responses are handled by the provider under their policies. Review their terms for data use, retention, and improvement practices.
Tip: Avoid including sensitive or personal data in prompts.

11. International Considerations
AiRO itself involves no international data transfers. However, AI providers may process data across borders under their own terms. Review their policies for details.
