BookLike

Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

No tracking

BookLike contains no analytics, no advertising, and no tracking of any kind. It does not know who you are, what sites you visit, or what you read.

EPUB download

EPUB files are generated entirely on your device — the article content is never sent to BookLike's servers. If you choose to include images, the URL of each image is sent to BookLike's image proxy so it can be fetched and embedded in the file. Images are processed in memory and are not stored or logged. Requests are routed through Cloudflare's infrastructure; Cloudflare may log request metadata (IP address, timestamp) in accordance with their privacy policy.

To enforce a fair-use monthly limit on image proxying, a randomly generated anonymous ID is stored locally on your device. It contains no personal information and is used solely for rate limiting — it is not linked to any account or identity.

Dictionary lookups

When you look up a word using the built-in dictionary, the selected word is sent to a third-party dictionary API to retrieve its definition. Looked-up words are cached in memory for the duration of your session to avoid redundant requests, but are never persisted or logged.

Preferences

Your reading preferences (font, font size, theme, etc.) are saved locally on your device and never sent to BookLike or synced across devices.
