PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Privacy
without fine print.

This policy explains what Panoria processes, why it is needed and how you can control or delete your information.

Effective July 25, 2026

Who we are

Panoria is a news panorama operated by Bots Smart Systems, a personal developer account based in Brazil. In this policy, “Panoria”, “we” and “our” refer to Bots Smart Systems as the operator of the Panoria app, website and API.

Privacy questions and data requests can be sent to privacy@panoria.app.

Information we process

Reading without an account

You can browse the global news feed without creating an account. The app creates a random installation identifier so the API can enforce abuse and narrative limits without using an advertising identifier.

Account and preferences

If you sign in, we store your email address, an internal user ID, session records and the preferences you choose: app language, appearance, topics, countries and continents. Passwords are not used; sign-in codes expire after a short period.

Subscriptions

Google Play or Apple processes payment details. Panoria and RevenueCat receive an app user identifier, product, entitlement and subscription status. We do not receive your full card or bank details.

Optional analytics

Firebase Analytics remains disabled until you consent in the app. If enabled, Panoria sends product events such as feed views, feature use, plan, language and aggregate counts. We do not send article titles, article URLs, your topics, email address or advertising ID to analytics.

Operational data

Our servers process network and request information needed for security, rate limiting, reliability and cost controls. Identifiers used for persistent quotas are stored as hashes.

How we use information

  • Provide the feed, localized titles, original source links and Narratives.
  • Synchronize your preferences and subscription across sessions.
  • Prevent abuse, enforce plan limits and keep the service reliable.
  • Send requested one-time sign-in codes.
  • Measure anonymous product usage only after your consent.

We do not sell personal information and do not build advertising profiles.

AI and news content

When needed, article titles or the reporting grouped into a story may be sent to an AI provider to translate a title or generate a Narrative. Panoria does not include your email address, advertising ID or personal profile in those requests. Generated results are cached and shared by story and language so the same content does not need to be generated again.

Service providers

We use providers only for defined parts of the service:

  • Google Play and Apple App Store for distribution and payments.
  • RevenueCat for subscription entitlement management.
  • Firebase Analytics for consent-based product analytics.
  • Resend for one-time sign-in email delivery.
  • OpenAI for contextual title translation and on-demand Narratives.
  • Infrastructure and DNS providers for hosting, delivery and security.

These providers process data under their own terms and privacy notices and may operate in other countries.

Retention and security

Account data is kept while your account exists. Session tokens expire, one-time codes expire after their short validity period, and operational metrics are kept for a limited period. Shared news, translation and Narrative caches are not tied to your account and may be retained to avoid repeated processing.

We use encrypted transport, restricted server access, hashed session and quota identifiers, operating-system secure storage on the device and regular backups. No system can guarantee absolute security.

Your choices and rights

  • Use the global feed without an account.
  • Turn anonymous analytics on or off in Profile at any time.
  • Edit your language, appearance and briefing preferences.
  • Sign out and delete your account from inside the app.
  • Request access, correction or deletion by contacting us.

Deleting Panoria is separate from cancelling a store subscription. Account deletion removes your Panoria account and preferences; active subscriptions must be cancelled in the relevant app store.

Account deletion instructions

Children and international use

Panoria is a general-audience news product and is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child provided personal information improperly, contact us. Data may be processed in countries other than yours, with protections appropriate to the service and applicable law.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy as the product or law changes. Material changes will be reflected by a new effective date and, when appropriate, an in-app notice.
