1. Introduction
ThinkSave ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our mobile application ThinkSave (the "App").
By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information We Collect
ThinkSave is designed with privacy in mind. We minimize data collection as much as possible.
a) Information stored locally on your device
- Saved articles: URLs, titles, authors, and downloaded content (text, images) are stored locally on your device.
- Reading preferences: Font size, theme settings, reading progress, and language preference.
- App usage state: Onboarding completion status, article read/favorite flags.
This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly share it.
b) Information collected automatically
- Advertising identifiers: The App uses Google AdMob, which may collect device identifiers, IP address, and ad interaction data for the purpose of serving advertisements. This is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
- Crash reports: If you opt in, anonymous crash logs may be collected to improve app stability.
3. How We Use Your Information
- To provide and maintain the core functionality of the App (saving and reading articles offline).
- To display relevant advertisements through Google AdMob.
- To improve the App's performance and user experience.
- To respond to your support requests and bug reports.
4. Data Storage and Security
- All article content and personal data are stored locally on your device using SQLite and the device's file system.
- We do not operate servers to store your personal data.
- We do not transmit your saved articles or reading data to any external server.
- If you uninstall the App, all locally stored data will be permanently deleted.
5. Third-Party Services
The App integrates with the following third-party services:
- Google AdMob: For displaying advertisements. AdMob may collect device information, advertising ID, and usage data. See Google's Privacy Policy.
- Firebase: For hosting this privacy policy page and app-related web content. Firebase is a Google service.
These third-party services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.
6. Your Rights

- Delete: You can delete individual articles or all data by uninstalling the App.
- Opt-out of ads: You can reset your advertising ID in your device settings.

8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
