<p>CalmRead was made because I wanted a better way to read without distractions.</p>

<p>It is designed to be simple and private by default. No accounts, no logins, no tracking.</p>

<h2 id="data-collection">Data Collection</h2>

<p>CalmRead does not collect, store, or share personal data.</p>

<p>There are:</p>

<ul>
  <li>no analytics</li>
  <li>no trackers</li>
  <li>no advertising SDKs</li>
  <li>no third-party data collection</li>
</ul>

<p>Your reading activity stays on your device.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="file-access">File Access</h2>

<p>CalmRead can open local files such as:</p>

<ul>
  <li>PDF</li>
  <li>EPUB</li>
  <li>DOCX</li>
  <li>TXT</li>
  <li>Markdown files</li>
  <li>other supported text-based formats</li>
</ul>

<p>The app only accesses files and folders that you explicitly choose.</p>

<p>Users can select where the CalmRead library folder is located using Android’s built-in file picker system. This folder may contain reading files and subfolders managed by the user.</p>

<p>CalmRead does not scan, access, or upload unrelated files on your device.</p>

<p>All files remain stored locally on your device.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="reading-history-and-saved-content">Reading History and Saved Content</h2>

<p>CalmRead stores reading progress, bookmarks, and reading history locally on your device so you can continue where you left off.</p>

<p>This information is never uploaded or shared.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="internet-access">Internet Access</h2>

<p>Internet access is only used when:</p>

<ul>
  <li>opening a web link inside the app</li>
  <li>fetching publicly available reading content from the web</li>
</ul>

<p>Browsing activity is not tracked or sold.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="no-ads-or-monetization">No Ads or Monetization</h2>

<p>CalmRead does not include ads, trackers, or paid behavioral monitoring.</p>

<p>There is nothing in the app designed to profile users or monitor usage behavior.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="a-note">A Note</h2>

<p>I made CalmRead for myself first because reading online had started feeling exhausting.</p>

<p>It may help people with ADHD or anyone who wants a quieter reading experience. It may not work for everyone, and that’s okay.</p>

<p>The goal is simply to make reading feel calmer again.</p>
