This Privacy Policy explains how Ouba (“Ouba,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards information when you use the Ouba mobile application and website at ouba.art (collectively, the “Service”). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to this Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. Ouba is intended only for users aged 18 and older.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of information:

  • Account information. When you create an account, we collect your email address and authentication credentials.
  • Content you provide. The choices, messages, and inputs you make while reading and interacting with stories. To generate interactive responses, this content may be processed by third-party artificial-intelligence providers.
  • Usage and device data. Interactions with the Service, pages and stories viewed, session activity, device and browser type, operating system, language, approximate location (derived from IP address), IP address, and unique identifiers, collected via analytics and similar technologies.
  • Cookies and local storage. We and our providers use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to operate, secure, remember preferences, and measure the Service.

2. How We Use Information

We may use information to:

  • provide, operate, maintain, and improve the Service;
  • generate and personalize interactive story experiences;
  • authenticate users and secure accounts;
  • understand usage, conduct analytics, and develop new features;
  • communicate with you about the Service;
  • detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and security issues;
  • comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

We may create and use de-identified or aggregated data, which does not identify you, for any lawful business purpose.

3. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:

  • Service providers that perform functions on our behalf — including hosting and database services, authentication, analytics, performance monitoring, and artificial-intelligence processing — under obligations to protect the information.
  • Legal and safety recipients where we believe disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Ouba, our users, or others.
  • Business transfers in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets.
  • With your direction or consent for other purposes you authorize.

4. Third-Party Services

The Service relies on third parties to function, which may process information as described above and under their own privacy policies. These include providers of cloud hosting and databases, authentication, product analytics, performance measurement, and artificial-intelligence text generation. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties.

5. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as needed to provide the Service, for the purposes described in this Policy, and as required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. We may retain de-identified or aggregated data indefinitely.

6. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You use the Service at your own risk.

7. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal information, or to object to certain processing. You may exercise applicable rights by contacting us at the address below. You may also control cookies through your device or browser settings. We will respond to verified requests as required by applicable law.

8. International Transfers

We and our providers may process and store information in countries other than your own, which may have different data-protection laws. By using the Service, you consent to such transfers.

9. Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed to and may not be used by anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If we learn we have collected information from a child, we will delete it.
