Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us. This policy outlines how Manga18toon handles, stores, and protects your information while you browse and read on our platform.
1. Information We Collect
We believe in minimal data collection. When you browse Manga18toon, we collect only the essential information needed to deliver a fast and personalized reading experience:
- Local Reading Data: Your bookmarks, reading history, current chapter progress, and visual preferences (dark/light mode, reading layout) are saved client-side in your web browser's LocalStorage.
- Account Information (Optional): If you choose to create an account or sign in with Google OAuth, we store your chosen username, email address, and avatar reference solely to sync your bookmarks across devices.
- Technical Server Logs: Standard server logs including IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, and request timestamps are collected automatically for security auditing, DDoS prevention, and rate-limiting.
2. Cookies & Local Storage
Manga18toon utilizes browser LocalStorage and minimal essential cookies to remember your session and preferences:
- Remembering your reader mode (e.g. vertical webtoon scroll vs page-by-page).
- Maintaining your authenticated session so you don't have to log in repeatedly.
- Storing anonymous cache flags to prevent repetitive network requests.
You may clear your cookies and LocalStorage at any time through your browser settings. Doing so will reset your reading history and display preferences on that device.
3. Third-Party Services & Links
Our website may contain links to external third-party content providers and image content delivery networks (CDNs). We do not control, manage, or assume responsibility for the privacy practices, cookies, or content policies of third-party platforms. We recommend reviewing their individual privacy policies.
4. User Rights & Data Deletion
You have the right to request access to or permanent deletion of any personal data linked to your account. To request an account wipe or ask questions about our privacy practices, contact us at:
