Privacy Policy

Quiet Library · Last updated 14 November 2026

Quiet Library is a calm app for reading in a quiet virtual library. We collect as little as we can: only what the app needs to keep your books, sessions and shelf. There are no ads, no tracking and no analytics, and we never sell your data.

Who is responsible

Quiet Library is made by Azad Azizi, Denmark, who is the data controller for the information described here. Contact: hello.quietlibrary@hotmail.com.

What we store

DataWhy
Your email addressTo sign you in with a one-time code. We don't send newsletters or marketing.
Books you add (title, author, number of pages, the page you are on)To show your library and current book.
Reading sessions (start time, length, whether it finished, pages read)For the candle timer, your shelf and your reading totals.
Items you unlock (for example the reading lamp)To give you rewards as you read.

Like most online services, our hosting provider keeps short technical logs (such as IP address and time of a request) to keep the service secure and working.

What stays on your phone

The end-of-session notification is scheduled on your phone, and the rain and music play from files inside the app. Neither sends anything to us. You can turn notifications off at any time in your phone's settings.

Why we may use it (legal basis)

We process this data to provide the app you asked for (GDPR Article 6(1)(b), performance of a contract). Security logs are kept on the basis of our legitimate interest in keeping the service safe (Article 6(1)(f)).

Who helps us

We use two services to run the app. They process data only on our instructions:

If data is processed outside the EU/EEA, this happens under the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or another safeguard approved under GDPR.

How long we keep it

We keep your data for as long as you have an account. When you delete your account, your email address, books, sessions and unlocked items are deleted straight away. Backups and technical logs at our providers are deleted automatically within a short period afterwards.

Delete your account

In the app: open Library, scroll down, tap Delete account and confirm. Everything is deleted at once.

Without the app: email hello.quietlibrary@hotmail.com from the address you sign in with, and we will delete your account and all its data within 30 days.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct, delete or receive a copy of your data, and you can object to or ask us to limit how we use it. Write to hello.quietlibrary@hotmail.com. If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet, datatilsynet.dk) or the authority where you live.

Children

Quiet Library is not meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top. If a change matters for how your data is used, we will tell you in the app first.
