Privacy Policy

Effective November 9, 2026.

This policy describes what data the Librique app for iPad and iPhone (the app) handles and where it is stored.

Data collection

The app does not collect personal data and does not share it with the developer or any third party, except as described in the Translation section. The app contains no advertising, analytics, tracking or user accounts. The developer operates no servers that the app sends data to.

Data storage

Books, their details and covers, shelves, ratings, reading positions and settings are stored on the device. If the device is signed in to iCloud, this data syncs between the user’s devices through the private iCloud database of the user’s Apple Account. Data stored in iCloud is governed by Apple’s privacy policy. The developer has no access to the user’s iCloud data.

Data on the device is removed by deleting the app. Data in iCloud is removed in the device settings: Settings → your name → iCloud → Storage → Librique → Delete Data from iCloud.

OPDS catalogs

The app connects only to the OPDS catalogs whose addresses the user has entered. Each request includes the app name and version. Requests are handled according to the rules of the respective catalog.

Catalog user names and passwords are stored in iCloud Keychain and are sent only to that catalog.

Files

Books the user adds from the Files app are copied into the app’s storage. The app does not access any other files.

Translation

Translation of selected text is performed on the device by Apple’s built-in translation. Language packs are downloaded by the system.

If the user turns on intelligent translation, the selected passage, the paragraph that contains it, the book’s title, authors and language, and the user’s questions are sent directly from the device to the provider the user has chosen (Anthropic, OpenAI or Google), using the user’s API key. Before connecting, the app asks for permission for this transfer. The developer does not receive this data. Its processing is governed by the provider’s privacy policy. The API key is stored in iCloud Keychain and is sent only to the chosen provider.

Children

The app does not collect data from users of any age, including children.

Changes to this policy

A revised policy is published on this page with its effective date.
