Effective Date: August 11, 2026
Last Updated: August 11, 2026

OnStorio respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, stored, disclosed, and protected when you use the OnStorio website, mobile application, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

OnStorio is operated by Muhadzir LLC. References to “OnStorio,” “we,” “us,” or “our” in this Privacy Policy refer to the operator of the Service.

By using OnStorio, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

Depending on how you use OnStorio, we may collect information that you provide directly, information generated through your use of the Service, and limited technical information necessary to operate and protect the platform.

Account Information

When you create or use an OnStorio account, we may collect information such as:

• Your name or display name
• Email address
• Account identifier
• Profile information
• Profile image, if provided
• Language preferences
• Other information you voluntarily add to your profile

We use this information primarily to create, authenticate, maintain, and personalize your OnStorio account.

OnStorio is a social platform centered around writing and storytelling.

We may therefore store content that you choose to create, upload, publish, or otherwise provide through the Service, including:

• Stories
• Articles
• Posts and written content
• Titles and descriptions
• Images and other media you choose to upload
• Profile information
• Comments or other interactions where available

Content that you intentionally publish may be visible to other users and, depending on the Service and your settings, may also be publicly accessible on the internet.

You should not publish information that you do not want others to see.

This information may be used to provide the requested functionality and to improve or personalize the content and experience presented to you.

3. Technical and Usage Information

When you use OnStorio, certain technical information may be processed automatically by our systems or service providers.

Depending on the technologies used by the Service, this may include information such as:

• Browser or device type
• Operating system
• IP address
• Login and authentication information
• App or website interactions
• Error, security, diagnostic, or performance information
• Approximate technical information derived from network connections

We may use this information to operate the Service, maintain security, prevent abuse, troubleshoot problems, understand performance, and improve OnStorio.

We do not claim to collect a particular technical data category unless that information is actually generated or processed by the technologies used to provide the Service.

4. How We Use Information

We may use information collected through OnStorio to:

• Create and manage user accounts
• Authenticate users
• Provide OnStorio features
• Display and distribute content that users choose to publish
• Maintain profiles
• Provide social and community features
• Personalize language, content, recommendations, or other aspects of the Service
• Maintain saved content and user preferences

• Maintain and improve the reliability and performance of the Service
• Comply with applicable legal obligations
• Enforce our Terms of Use and platform rules
• Protect OnStorio, our users, and others

5. Public Content

OnStorio is designed to allow users to publish and share content.

Information you intentionally publish may become publicly accessible and may be viewed, copied, shared, indexed, quoted, or otherwise accessed by other people or services outside our control.

Please consider carefully what information you choose to make public.

OnStorio cannot control what third parties do with information that a user has intentionally made public.

6. Third-Party Service Providers

OnStorio may use third-party providers to operate portions of the Service, including hosting, authentication, infrastructure, security, communications, analytics, or other technical functions.

For example, OnStorio currently uses Google/Firebase technologies for certain authentication and related platform functions.

These providers may process information only as necessary to provide their respective services or as otherwise permitted by their own applicable terms and privacy practices.

We seek to use reputable service providers and expect providers handling user information on our behalf to maintain appropriate protections for that information.

OnStorio does not sell personal information to data brokers.

We do not knowingly share personal information with third parties for their independent targeted advertising purposes unless we disclose such practices and obtain any consent required by applicable law.

7. Tracking and Advertising

OnStorio does not intentionally use personal information to track users across apps or websites owned by unrelated companies for targeted advertising unless such functionality is specifically introduced and appropriately disclosed.

If our practices change, we may update this Privacy Policy and any required App Store privacy disclosures or consent mechanisms.

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The OnStorio website and web-based components of the Service may use cookies, local storage, authentication tokens, or similar technologies when necessary to:

• Keep users signed in
• Maintain account sessions
• Remember preferences
• Provide platform functionality
• Maintain security
• Improve performance

Third-party technologies integrated with the Service may also use similar mechanisms according to their applicable privacy practices.

9. Data Sharing

We may disclose information in limited circumstances, including:

• To service providers that help us operate OnStorio
• When a user intentionally makes information public
• When reasonably necessary to protect the security, rights, property, or safety of OnStorio, our users, or others
• To investigate fraud, abuse, security threats, or violations of our policies
• When required by applicable law, legal process, court order, or valid governmental request
• In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, subject to applicable law

We do not sell users' private stories, account credentials, or personal communications.

10. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the Service, provide requested functionality, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and why it is maintained.

When an account is deleted, we will take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize personal information and account-associated content that we are not legally required or otherwise permitted to retain.

Information may remain temporarily in backups, security logs, or technical systems until those systems are overwritten or deleted according to normal retention cycles.

Information that has already been independently copied, quoted, indexed, or shared by third parties may remain outside OnStorio's control.

11. Account and Data Deletion

Users may request deletion of their OnStorio account and associated personal information.

Where account creation is available through the OnStorio mobile application, OnStorio intends to provide users with an accessible method to initiate account deletion through the application.

Account deletion is intended to remove the user's account and associated personal information and user-generated content, except information that must or may be retained for legitimate legal, security, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution, or compliance purposes.

For assistance with account or data deletion, contact:

We may take reasonable steps to verify that a deletion request is being made by the account owner before processing it.

12. User Choices

Depending on available OnStorio features, users may be able to:

• Update certain profile information
• Change language or content preferences
• Remove or modify content they have published
• Control certain account settings
• Request access to or deletion of their personal information
• Delete their account

13. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information handled through OnStorio.

However, no website, application, database, network, or electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security of information.

Users are responsible for protecting their login credentials and should not share their passwords with others.

14. User-Generated Content

Users are responsible for the content they choose to create, upload, publish, or share through OnStorio.

Users should not publish personal information belonging to another person without appropriate authorization.

OnStorio may moderate, restrict, remove, or disable access to content or accounts when reasonably necessary to enforce our Terms of Use, respond to reports, protect users, comply with law, or protect the Service.

Additional rules governing user-generated content are described in the OnStorio Terms of Use.

15. Children's Privacy

OnStorio is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.

Users who are not legally permitted to provide consent for the processing of their personal information should use the Service only with any consent or supervision required by applicable law.

If we learn that personal information from a child has been collected in circumstances requiring parental consent and appropriate consent was not obtained, we may take reasonable steps to delete that information.

Parents or guardians with concerns may contact: [email protected]

16. International Users

OnStorio may be accessed by users in different countries.

By using the Service, information may be processed or stored in countries other than the country in which you reside, including the United States, subject to applicable law and the practices of our service providers.

Data protection laws may differ between jurisdictions.

Where legally required, we will take reasonable measures relating to international transfers of personal information.

17. Legal Requirements and Protection of Rights

We may preserve, use, or disclose information when we reasonably believe doing so is necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to valid legal process, protect the rights and safety of users or others, investigate abuse or fraud, enforce our agreements, or protect the integrity of OnStorio.

Nothing in this Privacy Policy limits rights that cannot legally be waived or restricted under applicable law.

18. Third-Party Links

OnStorio content may contain links to third-party websites or services.

We do not control the privacy, security, content, or practices of independent third parties.

Users should review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing information to them.

19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as OnStorio develops, our technology changes, or legal requirements evolve.

When appropriate, we will update the “Last Updated” date displayed at the beginning of this policy and may provide additional notice for material changes where required.

Continued use of the Service following an effective update is subject to applicable law and the updated Privacy Policy.
