1. Information We Collect

a) Files & Storage Access Word Reader – Docs Creator requires access to your device’s storage to read and display Word (.doc, .docx) files stored on your device. This is the core functionality of the app. We do not upload, transmit, or store your documents on any server. All file processing happens entirely and locally on your device.

b) Usage & Diagnostic Data We collect limited, anonymized data to improve app performance and stability. This includes crash reports, app usage patterns, and technical diagnostics. This data is collected through third-party services listed below and does not include the content of your files.

c) Advertising Data We show ads in the app through third-party advertising networks. These networks may collect certain device information such as your device’s advertising ID, IP address, general location, and app usage data to serve relevant ads. We do not share your personal files or document content with any advertiser.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain core app functionality (reading and creating Word files)
  • To display advertisements and generate revenue to keep the app free
  • To analyze app usage and improve user experience
  • To detect and fix crashes and technical issues

Our app is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@bougielabs.com and we will take steps to delete such information.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable precautions to protect your information. Since your documents are processed locally on your device and never transmitted to our servers, your file content remains private. However, please be aware that no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of data collected by third-party SDKs.

8. Your Rights Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:
