Privacy Policy

Effective November 13, 2026

The short version: we collect what we need to run reads, chat and payments. Live video and audio go between the two people on the call and are not recorded by us. We do not sell your information.

1. Who we are

Reader Room is operated by [legal name of the business].

2. What we collect

3. Live video and audio

Video and audio in a read are encrypted and sent between the two participants. When a direct connection is not possible, the encrypted stream passes through a relay server operated by Cloudflare. We do not record or store calls. A take exists only if the actor presses record, and is stored only if the actor saves it.

4. How we use information

To run the service: show who is online, connect reads, meter minutes, pay readers, show reviews, prevent abuse, and contact you about your account. We do not sell your personal information or use it for third-party advertising.

5. Who we share it with

Service providers that run parts of Reader Room for us: Supabase (database, sign-in and file storage), Stripe (payments and payouts), Cloudflare (video relay) and Netlify (website hosting). We may also disclose information when the law requires it or to protect members from harm.

6. Keeping and deleting

We keep your information while your account is open. You can edit your profile and delete saved takes at any time. To delete your account and the personal information tied to it, contact us. We may keep payment and payout records for as long as tax and accounting rules require.

7. Your choices

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to see, correct or delete your personal information. Contact us and we will respond. Browser notifications, camera and microphone access are controlled in your browser's settings.

8. Children

Reader Room is for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

9. Changes

If we change this policy in a significant way we will tell you in the app.
