Effective date: 20 October 2026
Story Studio (“the app”) is published by Faiz Ahmad Dae, trading as WebJow, the developer named on its Google Play page (“we”, “us”), who is responsible for this policy. You can reach us at support@topjow.org.
Your settings (language, appearance) and whether you have seen the introduction. Deleting the app deletes them.
The app shows ads from Google AdMob: banners and native ads in some screens, an occasional full-screen ad, and a video you can choose to watch to save a design in higher quality. To show and measure ads, and to prevent fraud, Google collects from the app:
Google receives this data directly from the app, under its own privacy policy and its ads data protection terms; we do not receive a copy of it. Google explains how it uses it in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Your choices about ads. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and other regions whose law asks for it, the app shows Google's privacy form before ads are personalised, and they are personalised only if you agree. You can change your answer at any time in Settings → Ad privacy (shown wherever your region asks for these choices). On Android you can also reset or delete your advertising ID in the phone's settings (Privacy → Ads, or Google → Ads).
To learn which features are used, the app records a small set of events: the screens you open, that the introduction was finished (and in which language), that a design was opened (blank, from a photo or from a template, and which template), that a design was exported (shared or saved, its format and size) and that a higher-quality export was unlocked. Events carry no text you typed, no photos and no names.
Google Analytics also records the device model, the operating system and app version, the language, an approximate location worked out from your IP address, and a random identifier for this install of the app. The app starts measuring only after the privacy choices above have been answered, or where your region does not ask for them. Where your region asks for consent, what Analytics may store and whether its data may be used for ads follow your answer.
If the app crashes or meets an error, Firebase Crashlytics sends a report so we can fix it: the technical trace of the error, the device model, the operating system and app version, and a random identifier for this install. Crash reports are not linked to you and are never used for advertising.
Story Studio is a general-audience app and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children; if you believe a child has used the app and want something removed, write to us.
| Data | Kept |
|---|---|
| Your designs and settings on your phone | Until you delete them or the app |
| Analytics events | For the retention period set in our Google Analytics property (no longer than 14 months); aggregated reports may be kept longer |
| Crash reports | 90 days |
| Ads data | As Google's own policies describe |
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of your personal data, and to complain to your data protection authority. Because we hold no account and receive no copy of the ads data, most of your data lives on your phone and with Google: you can reset your advertising ID, change your ad choices in the app, and use Google's own privacy controls. For anything else, write to support@topjow.org and we will answer within 30 days.
If we change what the app collects, we will update this page and its effective date before the new version reaches you.
