Privacy policy

Sentry Reader is operated by Media Hogg LLC. Hosting services process technical information such as IP addresses and request logs to deliver and protect the service. WordPress administrator accounts and authentication cookies are used to secure the private console.

Guest reading stores followed topics, reading size, sorting preferences and opened-update history on your device. With a free Sentry account, these preferences and read status are also saved on Sentry’s own server so you can use them across devices. We store your username, a protected password hash, recovery-key hash and sign-in sessions. Your password and recovery key are not stored as readable text. Save the one-time recovery key privately; we do not collect an email address for password resets.

Account data and reading history are not sent to writing AI providers or an analytics service. You can delete your account and cloud preferences in Account settings. Signing out or clearing local app data removes local preferences; it does not delete a cloud account. Security logs and necessary billing verification records may be retained to protect the service and resolve disputes.

Purchases, live advertising and remote bill alerts are not enabled in the current Android build. When those services are available, Google Play and RevenueCat will process subscription information linked to your Sentry account ID. Advertising uses Google’s consent controls. Bill alerts use Expo and Google’s notification service with a device push token and your selected alert topics. Turning alerts off disables that device’s registration. Pro removes ads and enables bill alerts; it does not change access to the free Feed or Bill Notices.

Opening a source link visits a separate website governed by that publisher’s privacy policy. Evidence and writing requests sent to AI providers contain source material, not your reading history. Administrative records and service logs are retained as needed for operation, security and troubleshooting.

Use the support page for privacy requests. We will update this policy when data processing changes.
