This Privacy Policy oversees your use of the Novelviolet services ("Services") and outlines the information we collect, how it is stored, the ways in which this information might be utilized, who it could be shared with, and the options you have regarding these uses and disclosures. When using our Service, please take the time to review this entire Privacy Policy. By choosing to use our products or services, you signify your acknowledgment and acceptance of this privacy policy, which may be revised at any time.
The Services are offered and managed by Oneword Limited. Should you have any queries or concerns pertaining to this Privacy Policy or the handling of your Personal Data, you can reach out to us via email at contact@wordone.fun.
We may gather Personal Information about you from the different sources outlined below. Where relevant, we will indicate if and why you need to provide us with your Personal Information, along with the implications of not providing it. If you choose not to provide Personal Information when it's requested, you might not be able to utilize our Service, particularly if the information is essential for delivering the service to you or if its collection is mandated by law.
If you access or use our Services as a registered user, we will gather certain information that you provide in connection with your account.
Your personal information consists of information like your nickname and email address. You can voluntarily provide extra information on your personal information.
Since you manage your own personal information, all these details are accessible to you anytime via your "personal information" page, where you have the option to edit or update most of your information directly through logging into Novelviolet.
Please refrain from including any personal contact information within your personal information such as telephone numbers, financial details, government ID numbers, or driver's license information, as this could expose you to potential abuse or misuse.
For customers who make purchases, we may need to collect payment information. This is necessary to process any commercial transactions through our services. The information you provide is used solely for the purpose of facilitating and completing your transaction.
If you opt to use a third-party service to complete and pay for your order, you will be required to enter your credit card details directly with that service. In such cases, the privacy policy of the third-party will govern how your information is handled on their platform.
When you provide feedback, contact us, or voluntarily share information with our employees or contractors, we will collect your contact details, any additional information you choose to provide, and any related data.
We use cookies, mobile IDs, and other similar technologies (collectively referred to as "Cookies"), such as web beacons, to provide, protect, and promote our services. These technologies help us better understand user behavior, including for security and fraud prevention purposes. They tell us which parts of our services people have visited or used and facilitate and measure the effectiveness of advertising and website or app search.
We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted once you close your app. Persistent cookies, on the other hand, remain on your device even after you close your app and can be used during future visits to our Service.
Additionally, we may automatically collect certain information from your device using various technologies, such as clear gifs or web beacons. This may include your IP address or other device identifiers, android version and device you are using, the pages of our app you visit before and after using our Service, the content you view or interact with on our Service, and the dates and times of your visits, access, or usage.
We, along with our analytics and/or advertising partners, use cookies to improve the quality of our services and to better understand how people interact with us, for example:

When you log in from multiple devices, we will be able to use your profile information to identify your activities across those devices.
We may obtain information about your location, such as through other geolocation features on your device, or by inferring it from other information we collect (for example, your IP address can indicate the general geographic area from which you are connecting to the internet).
If you choose to register for our services using social network credentials (such as third-party accounts like Facebook or Google), we will request your permission to access basic information from that account, such as your name, age, email address, and public profile.

The services may include features or links to websites and services provided by third parties. Any information you provide on a third-party website or service is provided directly to the operator of that service and is subject to those operators' privacy and security policies, if any, even if accessed through our services. We are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of third-party websites or services that are linked to or accessible from our services. We encourage you to learn about the privacy and security policies of those third parties before providing them with your information.

We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside Novelviolet when we have your consent, such as at your direction or when you authorize a third-party application to access your information.

We engage other companies and individuals to provide services on our behalf for any of the purposes described in this policy, such as cloud storage providers, payment card processing, and verification. We require these service providers to provide the same or equivalent protection for user data as described in this policy and prohibit them from retaining, using, or disclosing your information except as necessary to provide services to us.
Using third-party applications and platforms, such as Facebook and Google, you may choose to post information about your activities on our services to share with others in your network. This policy does not apply to your use of any such third-party applications and services, and we are not responsible for how these third parties collect, use, and disclose your information. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third parties before connecting or using their applications or services and to learn more about their information and privacy practices.
We may share your information in the event of a merger, sale of our assets, or if we finance or sell all or a portion of our business to another company. In such cases, we will always require the third party or the relevant company to comply with this policy.
We may share your information with any of our members, subsidiaries, or affiliated companies to provide our services, including to improve and optimize our services, prevent unauthorized use, and support users.
Your personal information is important, and protecting that information is important to us. We take reasonable steps to protect our users from unauthorized access, alteration, any breach or loss of information held by us, including administrative, technical, and physical safeguards.
If you choose to use our services or provide us with your information, your information may be transferred to, processed, and maintained on servers or databases located outside of your country or jurisdiction. Your information may also be processed by employees operating outside of your country who work for us, one of our suppliers, or one of our business partners. By submitting your information, you consent to such transfer, storage, or processing. We will take all reasonably necessary steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with this policy and applicable laws.
We follow generally accepted standards to protect personal information, both during transmission and once received. Here are some of the security measures we take:
Even though we make every effort to strengthen security measures, information may not always be 100% secure. You need to understand that the systems and communication networks you use to access our services may be compromised by factors beyond our control.

Novelviolet is not intended for minors under the age of 16 ("minors"). Minors are not permitted to use the services for any purpose. Novelviolet will never knowingly solicit or accept personal identifying information or other content from users or visitors known to be under the age of 16. If we discover that a user under the age of 16 has created an account, or if a user or visitor under the age of 16 has posted personal identifying information or other content on the service, we will terminate the account and delete the information or other content as soon as commercially practicable.
Our platform is not intended for minors under the age of 16 or equivalent minimum age in relevant jurisdictions. If you believe that we have or have collected personal data from a minor under the relevant age, please contact us at contact@wordone.fun.
Each minor may not access or use the services unless the minor and his/her parent or legal guardian have first agreed to the privacy policy; and the minor uses an account established by his/her parent or legal guardian, under the supervision of that parent or guardian, and with the permission of that parent or guardian. If you allow a minor to use the privacy policy, you hereby agree to the privacy policy on behalf of yourself and the minor. You further agree that you shall bear full responsibility for any use of the privacy policy by the minor, whether or not authorized by you.
We provide mechanisms for many of our services to update and correct your personal and non-personal data. You have the right to log in to your account at any time to correct and update your personal data. Regarding correction requests, if we agree that the personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, we will attempt to inform any third parties to whom we have disclosed the relevant personal data so that they can also correct the personal data.
You also have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, how we use it, and with whom we share it.
You can also benefit from the rights to restrict processing and data portability. However, we may process your personal data if we have other valid legal grounds (e.g., for the defense of legal claims or other protections). You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, and you can object to our use of your personal data based on legitimate interests (e.g., when we use your personal data to ensure account security).
You can exercise these rights by sending a request to the following email address: contact@wordone.fun. We reserve the right to refuse to process requests that are frivolous or manifestly unfounded or excessive, that would violate the privacy rights of others, that are extremely impractical, that require disproportionate technical effort, that are not required by local law, that involve information already made public, or that were provided under confidentiality conditions. We may also refuse requests to delete or access information if we believe certain aspects of the request would prevent us from legally using the information for the above-mentioned anti-fraud and security purposes.
You can request the deletion of your data at any time by going to "Me" > "Set up" > "Delete My Account." We will evaluate such requests on a case-by-case basis. We may retain some of your data for as long as reasonably necessary to maintain our legitimate business interests, including fraud detection and prevention, and to comply with our legal obligations, including tax, legal reporting, and audit obligations. In some cases, only the closure of your account may satisfy your request.
You have the right to delete your account, and you should understand that once your account is deleted, you will lose access to or the ability to use all or part of our services.
We will retain your information as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your personal data to provide you with services, please contact us at contact@wordone.fun. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will still retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Our privacy policy may change at any time. We will not reduce your rights under this privacy policy without your express consent. We will post any privacy policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice.
We regularly review our compliance with our privacy policy. When we receive a formal written complaint, we will contact the complainant to follow up. We cooperate with the appropriate supervisory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints about the transfer of personal data that we cannot resolve directly with the user.
If you do not agree to comply with this policy, you will not be entitled to use the services. If you continue to access or use the services after we have posted an updated policy, we will consider that you have accepted and agreed to be bound by the updated policy. If you do not agree to the updated policy, you must stop accessing or using the services and close your account (if applicable).
