Draft — review before launch
Privacy
Newsstand is a reader for the newsletters you choose to send it. This page explains, in plain language, what we keep and why.
What we store
| What | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Your name and email address | To sign you in. Google sign-in shares only your name and email; we never get access to your Gmail. | Until you delete your account |
| Newsletters sent to your Newsstand address, as a cleaned copy | To show them to you and make them searchable | Until you delete them or your account; the oldest read ones go first past 5,000 issues |
| The original raw email | To fix parsing problems | 90 days, then deleted automatically |
| Reading state, saved issues, publication names, logos, priorities and folders | To keep your library the way you left it | Until you delete your account |
| Unsubscribe links found in newsletters | For the one-tap Unsubscribe button | As long as the issue they came from |
| A private feed link | For the KOReader feed; you can replace it in Settings | Until replaced or your account is deleted |
| Your Kindle address, delivery time and time zone (only if you turn on Send to Kindle) | To email you the Daily Edition | Until you clear it or delete your account |
| A log of Daily Edition deliveries: when, how many issues, whether it worked | To send at most one a day and to show the last delivery | Until you delete your account |
| Theme and text size | To show pages the way you like them | A cookie on your device, for a year |
What we never store
- Your Gmail password or access to your mailbox: Newsstand only sees what you forward to it.
- Which issues you open or how long you read, beyond the read mark you set.
- Analytics, advertising IDs or third-party trackers.
Your inbound address
You get a personal address at our inbound domain. Anything sent to it is treated as a newsletter for your account. Do not use it for anything private.
Images in newsletters
In Rich mode, images in a newsletter are loaded directly from the sender's servers, so the sender can see that an image was requested. We do not proxy images. We ask your browser not to send them a referrer, so they do not learn which page you were on. Ink mode does not load any images.
What we do not do
- We do not sell your data or share it for advertising.
- We do not use tracking or analytics.
Your data, your call
- Export: Settings → Your data → Download my data gives you everything above as one JSON file.
- Delete: Settings → Your data → Delete account removes your account, newsletters, raw messages and settings immediately. It can't be undone.
