Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 20, 2025
Otaku's Library is an informational library and tracker for otaku media. This policy explains how we handle account data, user submissions, and third-party assets we reference to keep the experience useful and respectful of your privacy.
Data We Collect
Account details (username, email), profile info, submissions (lists, reviews, ratings), and basic device/log data needed for security and service reliability.
Content Sources & Accuracy
Entries may be librarian-curated, surfaced from search results, generated by AI, or submitted by users. Artwork can come from APIs (like AniList), user uploads, or hotlinked references. Content is informational and may be incomplete or incorrect.
How We Use Data
To operate and improve the library, personalize your experience, moderate abuse, secure the service, communicate updates, and comply with legal requirements.
Data Security & Retention
We apply reasonable safeguards but cannot guarantee absolute security. We keep data while your account is active or as needed to provide the service, then delete or anonymize it when no longer required or after a valid removal request.
Cookies & Preferences
We use cookies and local storage for preferences (like theme), sessions, and basic, privacy-focused analytics. You can limit cookies in your browser, but some features may not function properly without them.
Your Choices & Sharing
You may request access, correction, or deletion of your data. We do not sell personal information. We share data only with service providers (e.g., hosting/Supabase), with your consent, or when legally required.
Third-Party Services
We use third-party services such as hosting providers, databases, analytics tools, and APIs to operate the platform. These services may process limited data on our behalf under their own privacy policies.
Children's Privacy
Otaku's Library is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If such data is discovered, it will be deleted.
Contact Us
For data requests (access, updates, or deletion) or privacy questions, email us at otakuslibrary75@gmail.com. We aim to respond within 1 to 5 business days.
