calendar_today Effective date: October 7, 2026 update Last updated: October 12, 2026

Foldmarker is developed and operated by Vistap Technologies ("Vistap Technologies", "Foldmarker", "we", "us", or "our"). We provide tools to help users organize their reading, understand their reading interests, and discover books that may be relevant to them.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use the Foldmarker website, mobile application, and related services.

1. Information We Collect

Account information

When you create or use a Foldmarker account, we may collect information such as:

  • email address
  • name or display name, if provided
  • authentication information
  • account identifiers

Reading and library information

When you use Foldmarker, we may collect information that you choose to provide, including:

  • books in your library
  • books you have read, want to read, or own
  • books you mark, save, or add to your shelf
  • ratings and other reading information
  • reading preferences
  • feedback on recommendations
  • information used to generate your Reader DNA

If you upload a Goodreads export, we process the information contained in that file to import your reading history and provide Foldmarker features.

Usage information

We may collect limited information about how you use Foldmarker, such as interactions with features, recommendations, and technical information needed to operate, secure, and improve the service.

Note: The exact analytics and technical information collected depends on the services and SDKs included in the current version of the application.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use information to:

  • provide and operate Foldmarker
  • import and organize your reading history
  • maintain your bookshelf and reading information
  • generate Reader DNA and reading insights
  • provide personalized book recommendations
  • understand your feedback on recommendations
  • improve the quality and relevance of Foldmarker
  • maintain security and prevent misuse
  • diagnose technical problems
  • communicate with you about the service when necessary

We do not use your reading history to sell books or sell your personal information to third parties.

3. AI and Recommendation Processing

Foldmarker may use automated systems, including artificial intelligence and machine-learning technologies, to analyze information you provide and generate reading insights and recommendations.

This processing may include your reading history, books, preferences, recommendation feedback, and information you provide to Foldmarker.

We use this information to provide personalized functionality within Foldmarker.

The specific AI providers and processing arrangements may change as Foldmarker evolves. Where required, we will update this Privacy Policy to reflect material changes.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information with service providers that help us operate Foldmarker, such as:

  • cloud hosting and database providers
  • authentication providers
  • infrastructure providers
  • AI or machine-learning service providers, where required to provide Foldmarker functionality
  • analytics or crash-reporting providers, where used by the application

These providers are permitted to process information only for purposes related to providing their services to us.

We may also disclose information where required by law, legal process, or to protect the security and rights of Foldmarker, our users, or others.

5. Goodreads

Foldmarker allows you to upload a Goodreads export file.

The Goodreads data you provide is used to import your reading history and provide Foldmarker functionality.

Foldmarker does not make changes to your Goodreads account through an uploaded export file.

Foldmarker is not affiliated with or endorsed by Goodreads.

6. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Data transmitted between the application and our servers may be protected using encryption in transit where supported by the underlying service.

However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

7. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide Foldmarker and maintain your account and associated functionality.

If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize associated personal information within a reasonable period, except where retention is necessary for legal, security, fraud-prevention, or other legitimate purposes.

8. Account and Data Deletion

You may request deletion of your Foldmarker account and associated personal data at any time.

How to Request Account & Data Deletion:

To request deletion of your account, saved library, and personal data, please contact us by email:

Please specify your registered account email address. Upon receiving your request, we will verify your identity and permanently delete your user data, library records, and account identifiers within 30 days in compliance with Google Play and applicable regulatory standards.

9. Children's Privacy

Foldmarker is not directed toward children under the applicable minimum age for using the service.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.

10. Third-Party Services

Foldmarker may use third-party services to provide hosting, authentication, storage, analytics, AI processing, security, or other infrastructure.

Third-party services may process information according to their own privacy policies and contractual obligations.

We will update this policy when material changes to our service providers or data practices require additional disclosure.
