Sylen Privacy Experience Policy

1) What Information Sylen Uses Core

• Book details you enter: title, author, page count, status, and optional notes.
• Session details: starting page, ending page, reading duration, and interruption marks.
• Derived insights: reading pace, streaks, weekly pages, and calendar activity summaries.
• Optional cover image paths used to display your shelf visually.

2) Permission-Based Features Device Access

• Camera: used only when you choose to capture a book cover photo.
• Photo Library: used when you choose an existing image as a cover or export an edited image.
• Microphone: used only when you choose to create voice notes in supported flows.

If you do not grant a permission, the related optional feature simply stays unavailable while the main reading tracker continues to work.

3) How Your Data Supports the App Experience Usage

• Session inputs are used to generate progress and reading-behavior insights.
• Status updates (Reading, Finished, Abandoned, Wishlist) organize your personal shelf.
• Calendar and weekly charts help you understand consistency over time.
• Interruption and abandonment details help reveal where and why sessions break.

4) Controls You Have Your Choices

• You decide what books and notes to add, edit, or remove.
• You can stop using optional image and voice features at any time through device settings.
• You can continue using core reading logs even without optional permissions.
• You can review your stats and history directly inside the app interface.

5) Experience Transparency Clarity

• Sylen is designed to explain feature purpose through labels and in-context hints.
• Permission prompts are tied to the exact moment a feature needs access.
• Input validation is used to keep reading calculations meaningful and realistic.
• Visual summaries are generated from your own session and shelf data.
