Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 25, 2026. At NeuroRead Pro, we believe your personal library, private documents, highlighted insights, and reading progress belong strictly to you. Learn how our secure cloud architecture synchronizes your reading across devices without compromising your privacy.
1. Summary at a Glance (TL;DR)
NeuroRead Pro is a modern web application designed for seamless multi-device reading. To let you read across your phone, tablet, laptop, and desktop without losing your place, your library is securely synchronized to the cloud:
- Multi-Device Access: Your uploaded books, reading milestones, notes, and custom roadmaps sync to your account so you can continue reading anywhere.
- 100% Document Ownership: You own all uploaded books and generated notes. We never claim ownership of your intellectual property.
- Zero AI Training on Your Books: We never sell, share, or feed your private book contents into public AI foundation models.
- Encrypted & Purgeable: All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. You can permanently delete individual books or your entire account with one click.
2. Cloud Storage & Multi-Device Access
When you upload documents and read using NeuroRead Pro:
Your current page, word-level audio sync progress, bookmarks, and streak statistics sync to your account so you can pick up instantly on any phone, tablet, or laptop.
Your books (PDFs & EPUBs) are stored in secure, private cloud object storage protected with industry-standard server-side encryption (AES-256).
Access to your cloud library requires authentication. Only your verified user session can access or stream your documents.
3. Data Ownership & AI Model Privacy
Your reading materials and notes belong exclusively to you. We maintain strict boundaries regarding your content:
- No Model Training: Your documents, summaries, roadmaps, and podcast audio are never used to train public machine learning or LLM models.
- No Advertising or Tracking SDKs: We do not sell your reading habits, study duration, or library titles to advertisers or data brokers.
- Confidential Handling: Whether you are reading academic research, textbooks, or proprietary work files, your library remains private to your account.
4. API Keys & Bring-Your-Own-Key (BYOK)
For users who take advantage of our Bring-Your-Own-Key (BYOK) features (e.g., custom roadmap prompts or private LLM integrations with OpenAI, Google Gemini, Groq, or Ollama):
Encrypted Key Storage: Your private API keys are encrypted at rest using envelope encryption. They are utilized exclusively to authenticate API requests on your explicit command.
Direct Provider Requests: Requests made with your own keys communicate directly with your selected AI provider. You can delete or forget your stored keys at any time from your account settings.
5. Subscription & Payment Security
Payment processing is handled by certified, PCI-DSS Level 1 payment gateways (Stripe):
NeuroRead Pro never sees, collects, or stores your full credit card numbers, CVVs, or bank account credentials. All billing management and receipt delivery are handled through secure payment tunnels.
6. GDPR, CCPA & Permanent Deletion Rights
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA):
- Right to Erasure (Forget Me): When you delete a book or request account deletion, all associated files, highlights, and roadmap milestones are permanently purged from our cloud servers and backups.
- Right to Portability: You can download and export your reading notes, summaries, and annotations at any time in standard formats.
- No Sale of Personal Information: We do not sell your personal data or document history to any third party.
7. Infrastructure & Encryption Standards
Our cloud web application is hosted on enterprise cloud infrastructure with automated monitoring, DDOS protection, and high-availability failover.
All communication between your browser and our servers is enforced over HTTPS utilizing TLS 1.3 encryption. Document files in storage are encrypted with AES-256.
8. Policy Updates & Contact
We may periodically update this policy as new cloud features and reading capabilities are released. Material updates will be communicated clearly in our application.
