Privacy
Last updated: 13 November 2026. My News Reader uses no cookies, no advertising, no trackers and no location lookup.
Kept on your device only
- The topics you follow (♥), the topics you see less of, sections you put first or hide, and typed topics
- Stories you saved (🔖) and stories you opened, so they move down in later issues
- Your current issue and the page you were on
- Your theme and language
- A random device number used only to finish signing in on the device that asked for the code
These stay in your browser's storage on your device. Clearing the app's data removes them.
Kept on our side, only if you sign in
- Your email address — to send your sign-in code and to link your Pro subscription
- With Family Pro, the email addresses the payer adds, so their Pro follows the subscription
- With Pro, your reading choices (Topics and followed subjects), so they are the same on all your devices
- A friend's code, if you have one or use one
- Your own language for word meanings, if you pick one
- If you comment: the name you choose and your comments, shown to other readers with the section and date (never your email)
- Your sign-in sessions (as one-way fingerprints, never the session itself), each valid for a year or until you sign out
- Your Pro status and the PayPal subscription number
- A copy of your reading settings (the list above, without the opened stories), so they follow you to your other devices

The visitor count
The site counts visits as one running number shown in the About area.
The visitor count is like a doorbell in a shop: it only notes that someone came in and knows nothing about you. No cookies.
Services involved
- Cloudflare hosts the app and sends the sign-in emails (from mynewsreader@notify.aplusz.app).
- PayPal handles the Pro payment; we never see your card or bank details.
- News publishers: story pictures pass through our server, so publishers do not see you while you browse the magazine. When you open a full story, the publisher's own page loads, with that publisher's own privacy rules.
- YouTube (privacy-enhanced mode, youtube-nocookie.com) loads only when you tap ▶ on a video.
Your rights
You can ask for a copy of what we keep, a correction, or deletion at contact@aplusz.app; deletion is also one tap in the app. You can complain to the French data protection authority (CNIL) or your own.
Data controller: Verge Heights, contact@aplusz.app.
