Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 17, 2026
Privacy Policy
This privacy policy is applicable to the MythologyNow app (hereinafter referred to as "Application") for mobile devices, which was developed by MyAppDesk (hereinafter referred to as "Service Provider") as a Freemium service. This service is provided "AS IS".
What information does the Application obtain and how is it used?
User Provided Information
The Application creates an anonymous account for you automatically the first time you open it, so you can use it without registering. This anonymous account stores your listening progress, favorites, downloads and achievements.
You may optionally link an email address to that account to keep your library when you change devices. In that case the Service Provider stores your email address and sends you a one-time code to verify it. You may also choose a display name and pick an avatar from the set included in the Application. If you join a waiting list on the MythologyNow website, your email address is stored for that purpose. You may also contact the Service Provider by email, in which case the messages you send are stored.
The Service Provider may use the information you provided to contact you from time to time to provide you with important information, required notices and marketing promotions.
Automatically Collected Information
The Application may collect certain information automatically, including, but not limited to, the type of mobile device you use, your mobile device's unique device ID, the IP address of your mobile device, your mobile operating system, the language and region settings of your device, and information about the way you use the Application (stories played, listening time, screens visited, purchases and subscription status).
Your Library and Activity
The following is stored on the Service Provider's servers, linked to your account, so your library stays in sync across your devices: chapter and episode playback progress, favorite stories, characters, places and artifacts, your collected cards, unlocked achievements, comics you have read, mythology preferences and votes, your app settings and preferred language, your subscription status, and a record of the episodes you have downloaded.
AI Conversations
Conversations with the in-app AI assistant are stored on the Service Provider's servers so you can revisit them from your chat history. Only your account can read them, and deleting a conversation or your account removes them.
Local Storage on Your Device
The Application keeps a local cache of catalogue content, images and downloaded audio on your device, plus small preferences such as whether you accepted the AI disclaimer. Uninstalling the Application removes this data.
Does the Application collect precise real time location information of the device?
No. This Application does not request or collect precise location information from your device. Your approximate country is derived from the network headers of your request and from your device language settings, and is used for pricing, content availability and analytics purposes.
AI Features (MythAI and AI Reading)
The Application includes artificial intelligence features that answer questions about mythology and narrate stories. It is important that you understand how this information is handled:
- External AI Providers: Your prompts are sent through the Service Provider's own servers to Google (Gemini), which generates the response. The Service Provider may change or add other AI providers in the future.
- One-time Notice: Before your first conversation, the Application shows a disclaimer that you must accept to use these features.
- Storage: Conversations are saved to your chat history and can be deleted individually or by deleting your account.
- Purpose Limitation: Your messages are used to produce the response you requested and to keep the conversation context, not to build advertising profiles.
- No Sensitive Data Collection: The Service Provider does not ask for personally identifiable or sensitive information through these features.
- User Responsibility: It is your responsibility not to share sensitive personal information in AI conversations.
- Accuracy: Mythological content is retold for entertainment and cultural interest, and AI responses may be inaccurate or incomplete.
Offline Downloads
Episodes you download for offline listening are stored on your device only. The Service Provider records which episodes you downloaded and in which language, so the Application can warn you when a download no longer matches your current app language. Deleting a download, or uninstalling the Application, removes those files from your device.
Purchases and Subscriptions
Subscriptions are sold through the Apple App Store and Google Play. The Service Provider never receives or stores your payment card details. Purchase and subscription status is managed through RevenueCat so the Application can unlock premium content on your devices.
App Tracking Transparency (iOS)
On iOS the Application may ask for your permission to track using the App Tracking Transparency framework. If you decline, the device identifier for advertisers is not accessed and measurement events are sent without it. You can change this choice at any time in the iOS Settings app.
Do third parties see and/or have access to information obtained by the Application?
Only aggregated, anonymized data is periodically transmitted to external services to aid the Service Provider in improving the Application and their service. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties in the ways that are described in this privacy statement.
Please note that the Application utilizes third-party services that have their own Privacy Policy about handling data. Below are the third-party service providers used by the Application:
- Supabase (accounts, content and storage)
- RevenueCat (subscription management)
- Google Gemini (AI features)
- Meta / Facebook App Events (marketing measurement)
- MyAppDesk Analytics (product analytics)
- Apple App Store and Google Play (payments and app distribution)
The Service Provider may disclose User Provided and Automatically Collected Information:
- as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process;
- when they believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect their rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request;
- with their trusted services providers who work on their behalf, do not have an independent use of the information we disclose to them, and have agreed to adhere to the rules set forth in this privacy statement.
What are my opt-out rights?
You can halt all collection of information by the Application easily by uninstalling the Application. You may use the standard uninstall processes as may be available as part of your mobile device or via the mobile application marketplace or network. You can also delete your account from inside the Application, in Profile, Settings, Delete account.
Data Retention Policy, Managing Your Information
The Service Provider will retain User Provided data for as long as you use the Application and for a reasonable time thereafter. The Service Provider will retain Automatically Collected information for up to 24 months and thereafter may store it in aggregate. Deleting your account removes your profile, listening history, favorites, cards, achievements and AI conversations from the Service Provider's servers. If you would like the Service Provider to delete User Provided Data that you have provided via the Application, please contact them at team@myappdesk.dev and we will respond in a reasonable time. Please note that some or all of the User Provided Data may be required in order for the Application to function properly.
Children
The Service Provider does not use the Application to knowingly solicit data from or market to children under the age of 13.
The Application does not address anyone under the age of 13. The Service Provider does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13 years of age. In the case the Service Provider discover that a child under 13 has provided personal information, the Service Provider will immediately delete this from their servers. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact the Service Provider (team@myappdesk.dev) so that they will be able to take the necessary actions.
Security
The Service Provider are concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. The Service Provider provide physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information we process and maintain. For example, we limit access to this information to authorized employees and contractors who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve their Application. Please be aware that, although we endeavor to provide reasonable security for information we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete the personal data the Service Provider holds about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, use the account options inside the Application or contact team@myappdesk.dev.
Changes
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time for any reason. The Service Provider will notify you of any changes to the Privacy Policy by updating this page with the new Privacy Policy. You are advised to consult this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes, as continued use is deemed approval of all changes.
Your Consent
By using the Application, you are giving your consent to the Service Provider processing of your information as set forth in this Privacy Policy now and as amended by us. "Processing," means using cookies on a computer/hand held device or using or touching information in any way, including, but not limited to, collecting, storing, deleting, using, combining and disclosing information.
