  • 1. Introduction

    MosTech Zone ("we", "us", or "our") operates the MosTech News Portal BD mobile application. The app is a news aggregator designed to help users access news from publicly available third-party news sources and publisher websites. It also provides features such as Listen Mode, Reader Mode, offline reading and listening, saved articles, custom news sources, and AI-powered article summaries.

    This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected or processed when you use MosTech News Portal BD, how that information is used, and the choices available to you. By using the app, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy. Please see the terms & conditions


  • 2. Information We Collect and Process

    MosTech News Portal BD does not require users to create an account and we do not directly request personal information such as your name, phone number, contacts, or precise location to use the core news-reading features of the app.

    However, certain technical information may be automatically collected or processed by third-party services integrated into the app, including Google Firebase and Google AdMob. Depending on the services used and your device settings, this information may include:

    • Device and app information, such as device model, operating system, and app version.
    • App installation identifiers or similar technical identifiers.
    • Crash reports, diagnostic information, and technical performance data.
    • Advertising identifiers, where applicable and permitted by your device settings.
    • IP address and general technical network information processed by service providers.
    • App interaction or usage information where required by integrated third-party services.

    We use this information only for purposes such as operating and improving the app, diagnosing technical problems, delivering relevant app communications, managing features, providing advertisements, and supporting app functionality.


  • 3. AI-Powered News Summaries

    MosTech News Portal BD provides an optional AI-powered feature that allows users to generate concise summaries of supported news articles.

    When a user requests a summary, relevant article content or text may be processed by the AI service used by the app for the purpose of generating the requested summary. Users should avoid submitting personal, confidential, or sensitive information through content submitted for AI processing.

    Generated summaries may be stored using Firebase or other cloud-based storage services so that previously generated summaries can be retrieved efficiently and unnecessary repeated AI processing can be reduced. Summaries may also be stored locally on the user's device for offline reading and listening.

    AI-generated summaries are provided for convenience only. They may contain inaccuracies, omissions, or errors. Users should always refer to the original news article and publisher for complete and authoritative information.


  • 4. Firebase Services

    MosTech News Portal BD uses certain Google Firebase services to support app functionality, reliability, communication, and performance. Depending on the current app version, these services may include:

    • Firebase Crashlytics: Used to identify crashes, errors, and technical problems so that we can improve app stability and performance. Crashlytics may process crash logs, device information, app installation identifiers, and diagnostic information.

    • Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM): May be used to send important app announcements, feature updates, service information, promotional messages, or other relevant notifications. FCM may process technical identifiers required to deliver notifications to devices.

    • Firebase Remote Config: May be used to manage selected app features, configuration settings, promotional offers, feature availability, or app behavior without requiring a new app version for every configuration change.

    • Firebase Cloud Storage / Database Services: May be used to store and retrieve generated AI summaries or related non-account-based app content to improve efficiency and reduce unnecessary repeated summary generation.

    Firebase services are provided by Google and may process technical data according to Google's applicable privacy and data-processing practices. For more information, please review Firebase Privacy and Security and Google's Privacy Policy .


  • 5. Advertising and Google AdMob

    Eligible versions of MosTech News Portal BD may display advertisements provided through Google AdMob.

    AdMob and its advertising partners may automatically process certain information, such as advertising identifiers, device information, IP addresses, ad interaction information, and other technical data, where permitted by applicable law and device settings. This information may be used to provide, measure, limit, and improve advertisements and, where applicable, to personalize advertising.

    Users may be able to control or limit personalized advertising through their device or Google privacy settings. The availability of personalized advertising may also depend on the user's region and applicable consent requirements.

    For more information about Google's privacy practices, please visit Google's Privacy Policy .


  • 6. Subscriptions, In-App Purchases, and AI Summary Credits

    MosTech News Portal BD may offer optional paid subscriptions, premium features, and AI Summary Credit Packs through Google Play.

    Payments and purchase transactions are processed by Google Play. We do not directly collect or store your credit card, debit card, or other payment card information. Google may process transaction and purchase information according to its own privacy policies and terms.

    The app may receive information necessary to verify purchase status, subscription entitlement, or available purchased features.


  • 7. Local Storage, Saved Articles, and Offline Content

    MosTech News Portal BD allows users to save supported articles, generated summaries, bookmarks, preferences, and custom newspaper or media links.

    Depending on the feature, this information may be stored locally on the user's device using standard Android storage mechanisms. Locally stored information is used to provide features such as offline reading, offline listening, saved content, user preferences, and custom news source access.

    Users can manage or delete saved content through available app features. Clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app may permanently remove locally stored information.


  • 8. Listen Mode and Text-to-Speech

    The app provides a Listen Mode that uses text-to-speech (TTS) technology to read supported headlines, articles, and saved summaries aloud.

    Text-to-speech functionality may use the TTS engine installed or selected on the user's device. The privacy practices of third-party TTS engines are governed by their respective providers. Users should review the privacy policies of any third-party TTS services they use.


  • 9. Reader Mode

    Reader Mode may process supported publicly available article content to display it in a simplified and more readable format. This feature is intended only to improve the user's reading experience and does not change ownership of the original content.

    All copyrights and intellectual property rights in third-party news articles remain with their respective publishers and content owners.


  • 10. News Sources and Links to Third-Party Websites

    MosTech News Portal BD aggregates or provides access to news content from publicly available third-party sources, APIs, and official publisher websites. These may include services such as NewsData.io and individual newspaper or news publisher websites.

    The app may contain links that take users to external websites. These websites are operated independently and have their own privacy policies and practices. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, security, or availability of third-party websites or services.

    Users are encouraged to review the privacy policies of external websites they visit.


  • 11. Custom News Sources and User-Added Links

    Users may add custom newspaper, media, or website links to the app. Custom links are generally stored locally on the user's device unless otherwise stated within the app.

    We do not endorse, monitor, or verify user-added websites. Users are responsible for the links they add and for ensuring that their use of external content complies with applicable laws and the terms of the relevant website.


  • 12. App Permissions

    MosTech News Portal BD requests only permissions necessary to provide its available functionality. Depending on your Android version and the features enabled, the app may require network access and notification permission.

    The app does not require access to your contacts, camera, microphone, or precise location for its core news-reading functionality unless a future feature requiring such access is introduced with appropriate disclosure and permission.


  • 13. Data Sharing and Third-Party Service Providers

    We do not sell users' personal information.

    Information may be processed by third-party service providers only as necessary to operate app features and services. These providers may include Google Firebase, Google AdMob, Google Play, AI service providers, news API providers, and external news publishers.

    Each third-party service processes information according to its own privacy policy, terms, and applicable legal obligations.


  • 14. Data Retention and Deletion

    Locally saved articles, summaries, bookmarks, preferences, and custom links remain on the user's device until they are deleted by the user, removed through app data clearing, or removed when the app is uninstalled.

    AI-generated summaries stored in cloud services may be retained as necessary to provide efficient summary retrieval, improve service availability, prevent unnecessary repeated processing, or meet operational and legal requirements.

    Crash reports, diagnostic data, advertising-related data, and other information processed by third-party services may be retained according to the applicable service provider's retention policies.

    Data Deletion Requests: If you wish to request deletion of personal data that is directly controlled by MosTech Zone, you may contact us at: user-privacy@mostechzone.website .

    We will review legitimate requests and take appropriate action for data that we directly control, subject to applicable legal, security, and technical requirements.


  • 15. Data Security

    We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information handled through the app. Network communications are generally transmitted using secure HTTPS connections where supported.

    However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted through the internet or processed by third-party services.


  • 16. Children's Privacy

    MosTech News Portal BD is a general-audience news application and is not specifically designed or directed toward children under the age of 13.

    We do not knowingly request or collect personal information directly from children under 13. If we become aware that personal information from a child has been collected in a way that violates applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to address the issue.


  • 17. User Choices and Controls

    Depending on your device, region, and app version, you may have options to:

    • Manage or disable app notifications through Android settings.
    • Manage advertising privacy and personalization through your device or Google settings.
    • Delete locally saved articles, summaries, bookmarks, and custom links.
    • Clear locally stored app data through Android settings.
    • Uninstall the app to remove locally stored app data.

  • 18. International Data Processing

    Third-party service providers used by the app, including Google and other cloud service providers, may process information on servers located in different countries. As a result, information processed through these services may be transferred to or processed outside the user's country of residence, subject to the service provider's applicable safeguards and legal obligations.


  • 19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in app features, technologies, third-party services, legal requirements, or privacy practices.

    Any updated version will be published on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. Users are encouraged to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
