Interleaving Reading Timer Privacy Policy

The app does not require an account or sign-in. Book titles and saved list names, reading order, intervals, timer and alert settings, selected sound references, reading timestamps and durations, and review text are stored on the device. It uses a Room database, DataStore preferences and local session state to operate timers, restore sessions and display reading history.

The app has no developer-operated backend and does not upload reading records to an MLL Easy server. It includes the advertising SDK described below and has no separate analytics or crash-reporting SDK. Android backup described below is separate from data transfers made by the app.

Interleaving Reading Timer integrates Google AdMob (Google Mobile Ads SDK) to display a banner ad on the Home tab, and Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) to obtain and manage advertising privacy choices. Ads are not shown on the active reading session screen. The app contacts UMP to check whether a consent form applies in your region and shows Google’s form where required. It starts the advertising SDK and requests ads only when UMP indicates that ads may be requested. Where required, the App Info tab offers “Ad privacy options” so you can reopen the form and change your choices.

Google documents that the Mobile Ads SDK automatically collects and shares the following data for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention, and that this data is encrypted in transit using TLS:

Depending on your region and choices, Google may serve personalized, non-personalized or limited ads. Non-personalized ads can still use cookies or mobile ad identifiers for frequency capping and aggregated ad reporting. You can reset or delete your advertising ID in Android settings.

The app does not add book titles, reading records or reviews to its ad requests. Advertising data is separate from reading records stored on the device, and using the app without an account does not mean advertising services collect no data. MLL Easy receives ad performance reports from AdMob. Google handles advertising data under its own policies, linked below.

Interleaving Reading Timer does not use separate Firebase Analytics or Crashlytics services. Measurement and diagnostic processing by the advertising SDK still applies.

Exact alarms deliver timer deadlines. Notifications and full-screen intents show timer alerts, including on the lock screen. Vibration and wake locks support timer alerts. The app uses your chosen sound for playback; these permissions do not imply collection of location, contacts or reading records by a server.

Internet and network-state access support advertising and the consent check. The advertising SDK’s merged manifest also declares the advertising ID permission, Android ad-services permissions (ad ID, attribution and topics) and a foreground-service permission.

Android automatic backup is enabled. Depending on Android version, device settings and the backup provider, eligible app data may be backed up or transferred to another device. A backup is separate from the copy currently on your device.

Clearing app storage in Android settings or uninstalling removes the local app data, but does not delete provider-held backups, original media, or copies outside the app. Manage those copies through their provider; restoring a backup can restore older data.

You can export your reading data to a file at a location you choose and import it later. The file is not encrypted and may include your reviews. MLL Easy does not receive it; the storage location you choose handles the copy you save.

You can delete saved book lists and reading-history entries in the app. Local records have no automatic expiry. MLL Easy cannot access or remotely delete records that remain only on your device. Google handles advertising-service data under its applicable policies.

Local records use Android app-private storage. Protect access to your device and any backup account. No storage or transmission method guarantees absolute security.

Interleaving Reading Timer is intended for users aged 18 and over and is not designed for children.
