Privacy Policy for Buffalo Story
Effective Date: October 23, 2025
1. Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how the Buffalo Story mobile application ("App") collects, uses, and protects user information. The App is developed and maintained by the developer at naingmin182084@gmail.com.
2. Information We Collect
The App uses an online system powered by Firebase Database to provide daily stories, jokes, and short novels. To operate these features, the App may collect and store limited technical information:
- Basic device information (device model, operating system version)
- Anonymous usage data (stories viewed, app interactions)
- IP address used temporarily for security and anti-abuse protection (handled by Firebase)
No personally identifiable information such as your name, phone number, address, or contacts is collected or required to use the App.
3. Firebase Database Usage
The App retrieves story content from Firebase Realtime Database. Firebase may automatically collect general technical data as part of its service operations. This information is handled according to Google’s Privacy Policy.
4. Local Data Storage
The App may save your reading preferences, last-read story, or downloaded data on your device (local storage). This data stays on your device unless you delete it manually.
5. Cookies and Web Content
If the App displays HTML content, local cookies may be used for saving display preferences. No third-party tracking cookies are used.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share user data with any third parties. Data may only be shared if:
- Required by law or legal processes
- Needed to protect the security and integrity of the App
7. Your Rights
- You can delete all locally stored data by clearing the App data or uninstalling it.
- You may contact us for any questions regarding data usage.
8. Children’s Privacy
This App is not specifically targeted at children. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from minors. Parents or guardians should monitor children’s usage.
9. Security
We use Firebase’s built-in security features to protect data stored online. However, no online service is 100% secure. Local data on your device also depends on your device’s own security (PIN, lock screen, etc.).
10. Third-Party Services
The App uses Firebase services provided by Google. You can review Google’s privacy policies here:

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. You will be notified of significant changes through App updates or a new version of this page.
