We keep data collection to a minimum.

A local age-verification check is used to confirm eligibility on this device.
1. Our Approach to Privacy
After Dark Tales is designed to minimise the information we collect and store. Most app data stays on your device, and we use third-party services only where needed to provide story generation and app hosting.
We do not sell your information, and we do not use your profile details for advertising.
2. Who This Service Is For
After Dark Tales is intended only for adults aged 18 and over. If a user cannot confirm that they are an adult, access should not be granted.
3. Age Verification
On first use, you are asked to confirm that you are 18 or over. This check is used to control access to the app on your device.
A local verification flag may be stored on your device so you do not need to repeat the check each time.
4. AI-Generated Content
All stories in After Dark Tales are generated by AI. Stories are created based on the genre, tone, length, and story notes you provide.
Content safeguards
We use automated safeguards intended to block prohibited requests, including content involving minors, non-consensual sexual content, bestiality, incest, necrophilia, and certain violent or hateful material.
Reporting
If generated content appears to break our content rules, you can use the in-app reporting feature so that we can improve our safeguards.
5. Information Used by the App
Stored on your device
Profile names, profile images, usage counters, credit balances, and age-verification status may be stored locally on your device.

Technical service data
Our hosting provider may process standard technical request data, such as IP address, timestamps, and device-related information, for security, reliability, and performance.
