Privacy Policy
Livingston Crain Technologies (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates Read For Me (the “App”) and related services (collectively, the “Service”). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, retain, and share information when you use the Service, and the choices you have.
By using the Service, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. Information we collect
We collect information that you provide directly, that is generated when you use the Service, and that comes from your device or platform as needed to run the App. This may include, for example:
- Account information — such as username or email and authentication data you use to sign in.
- Content you submit — such as text you choose to scan, import, or send for summarization, and summaries we return to you.
- Settings and preferences — such as display options you save to your account.
- Purchase-related identifiers — such as subscription or transaction identifiers from Google Play, Apple’s App Store, or our payment providers, so we can validate entitlement to paid features.
- Technical and usage data — such as app or API interactions, device or OS type, and diagnostic information limited to what is needed to operate and secure the Service.
We do not use this information for purposes unrelated to operating the Service.
2. How we use information
We use information only as reasonably necessary to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Service (including summarization, history, sync, and billing).
- Authenticate accounts and protect security.
- Communicate with you about the Service (for example, important notices), where permitted.
- Comply with law and enforce our terms.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your personal information for third‑party targeted advertising based on sales of data.
3. Retention
We retain information only for as long as needed to operate the Service, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When data is no longer needed for those purposes, we delete it or anonymize it in line with our practices and applicable law.
4. Sharing
We may share information with:
- Service providers who process data on our behalf under contract (for example, hosting, email, or payment infrastructure), strictly to help us run the Service.
- Authorities when required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security.
We do not sell personal information. Any disclosure that is not a “sale” under U.S. state law (such as to processors for operational purposes) is described above.
5. Your rights and requests
5.1 Deletion and access
You may request deletion of your personal information or access to what we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions (for example, where we must retain certain records).
To make a request, contact us using the information in Section 8. We will verify your request as required by law and respond within the timelines applicable to your jurisdiction.
5.2 GDPR (EEA, UK, and similar laws)
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction that applies the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or similar rules, you may have the right to:
- Access, correct, or erase your personal data.
- Restrict or object to certain processing.
- Data portability, where applicable.
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
We process personal data only as necessary for legitimate interests in operating the Service, to perform our contract with you, to comply with law, or where we have obtained your consent, as applicable.
5.3 California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
California residents have rights under the CCPA and CPRA, including:
- Right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose.
- Right to delete personal information we hold, subject to exceptions.
- Right to correct inaccurate personal information.
- Right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (we do not sell your personal information as defined by California law).
- Right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising these rights.
You may designate an authorized agent to make a request, subject to verification requirements.
Because we do not sell personal information, we do not offer a “Do Not Sell” link solely for data sales; if our practices change, we will update this policy and any legally required links.
6. Children
The Service is not directed at children under 13 (or the age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law. If you believe we have done so, please contact us so we can delete the information.
7. International transfers
If you access the Service from outside the country where we operate, your information may be processed in countries that may have different data-protection laws. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.
8. Contact us

9. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new “Last updated” date. Continued use of the Service after changes means you accept the updated policy, except where your consent is required by law.
