Narrus Privacy Policy

This privacy policy ("Policy") describes how Narrus (app) and echostream-ai.com/narrus ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects information about you when you use our App, products, and services (collectively, the "Services").

Our Services

Narrus is a local AI-powered reading application that provides eBook translation, audio transcription, plain text PDF mode, and text-to-speech functionality. All AI processing happens directly on your device. Narrus is available as an iOS application and via echostream-ai.com/narrus.

Local Processing & Privacy First

Narrus is designed with privacy as a core principle. All AI processing, including translation, transcription, and text-to-speech, happens entirely on your device. Your books, documents, and reading data never leave your device and are never transmitted to our servers or any third-party services.

This means:

• Your reading content stays private on your device
• No data is uploaded to the cloud
• No third parties have access to your reading materials
• You maintain complete control over your data

Narrus Does Not Collect Personal Information

We do not collect any personal information from you, including but not limited to:

• IP addresses or device identifiers
• Reading history or book content
• Translation queries or audio recordings
• Geographic location or browsing behavior
• Any sensitive personal information such as race, ethnicity, political opinions, religion, or health data

Data Storage

All data generated by Narrus, including your imported books, translations, transcriptions, annotations, and settings, is stored locally on your device using iOS secure storage mechanisms. This data is:

• Encrypted using iOS standard encryption
• Protected by your device's security features
• Never synchronized to external servers
• Only accessible by you through the Narrus app

If you delete the Narrus app from your device, all locally stored data will be permanently removed.

Third-Party Services

Narrus does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or data collection services. We do not use:

• Analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Firebase)
• Advertising networks
• Cloud-based AI services
• Social media integrations

All AI models and processing capabilities are embedded within the app and run entirely on your device.

App Store and Payment Information

If you purchase Narrus through the Apple App Store, your payment information is processed by Apple, not by us. We do not have access to your payment details. Please refer to Apple's Privacy Policy for information about how Apple handles your data.

Children's Privacy

Narrus does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. Since we do not collect any personal information, the app can be safely used by users of all ages.

Security

We take security seriously. Since all processing happens on your device and we don't collect or transmit your data, your information is protected by your device's built-in security features, including:

• iOS encryption standards
• Device passcode/biometric authentication
• Secure app sandboxing

We recommend keeping your device updated with the latest iOS version and using a strong passcode or biometric authentication to maximize security.

Your Rights and Control

Since Narrus operates entirely on your device, you have complete control over your data:

• You can delete any book, translation, or transcription at any time within the app
• You can uninstall the app to remove all data permanently
• You can use iOS backup features to preserve or transfer your data between your own devices
• No account registration is required, so there's no account data to manage

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will post the revised Policy on our website and update the "Last updated" date above. Significant changes will be communicated through the app or our website. We encourage you to review the Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy.

International Users

Narrus can be used anywhere in the world. Since all processing happens locally on your device, there are no data transfer or jurisdictional concerns. Your data never leaves your device regardless of your location.
