Privacy Policy

App: খবর ঘর (Khobor Ghor)
Developer: Md. Ariful Islam ("the Developer", "we")
Effective date: 2026-10-01

Khobor Ghor is a free Android app that lets you open the websites of Bangladeshi newspapers and news portals inside a built-in browser. This policy explains what information is handled when you use the app.

1. Information we collect

The app has no accounts or sign-in. We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, or precise location, and we do not run our own servers or analytics. The Developer does not collect or store your personal information.

2. Advertising (Google AdMob)

The app is free and shows ads through Google AdMob: a banner ad at the bottom of the screen and an occasional full-screen (interstitial) ad, shown at most once every 30 minutes. To serve, measure, and protect ads, Google and its partners may automatically collect and process information such as your device's advertising ID, IP address (and the approximate location derived from it), device model and operating system version, and how you interact with ads.

This processing is done by Google under its own policies. See How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Your choices: You can reset your advertising ID or opt out of ad personalization in your Android settings (Settings → Google → Ads). Where required by law (for example in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland), the app asks for your consent before showing personalized ads.

3. Newspaper websites

When you choose a newspaper, its website loads inside the app. These websites belong to third parties. They may use cookies, trackers, and their own advertising, and they handle your data under their own privacy policies. The Developer does not control them and is not responsible for their content or practices. The app does not copy or republish their articles.

4. Other network requests

• Internet check: To tell you when you are offline, the app sends small requests to public internet servers. Those servers can see your IP address.
• Fonts: The app may download its fonts from Google Fonts, which can see your IP address.

5. Cookies and local storage

Websites you open may store cookies and cache data on your device through the in-app browser. You can remove this data by clearing the app's storage in Android settings or by uninstalling the app.

6. Sharing of information

We do not sell your personal information. The Developer does not share personal information with anyone, because none is collected. Information described in sections 2 to 4 is processed by the third parties named there. We may disclose information if required by law.

7. Data retention

The Developer does not keep personal data. Data processed by Google AdMob and by newspaper websites is kept according to their own policies. Uninstalling the app stops all data processing by the app on your device.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or the California CCPA/CPRA), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal data, to withdraw consent, and to object to processing. Because the Developer holds no personal data about you, there is usually nothing to access or delete here; requests about advertising data are best directed to Google through your Google account's ad settings. You may still contact us with any request at the email address below.

9. Children

The app is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information to us, contact us and we will act on it.

10. Security

The app connects to websites over secure connections where those websites support them. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted at this page with a new effective date.
