House of Valerio · last updated 13 August 2026

House of Valerio is a fiction app: you describe a story, and it is written and narrated for you. This page explains what information the app handles, why, and what happens to it. It is written to be read, not skimmed past.

What we collect

Your account. By default you read as a guest with a random identifier and no personal details. If you sign in to keep your library, we store your email address (or the identifier Apple provides, which may be a private relay address).
What you create. Your story premises, casting choices, the chapters written for you, and their audio narrations are stored so your library persists. Your premise is treated as creative input, not profile data.
Age attestation. The app is for adults. We record that you confirmed being 18 or older, and the source of that confirmation.
Usage and diagnostics. We record how the app is used: screens visited, stories created, chapters read and listened to, purchases completed, and session replays of the app's own screens. This helps us find what is broken or confusing.
Purchases. Payments are processed entirely by Apple. We never see or store card numbers; we receive only Apple's signed receipt so we can credit your account.
Notifications. If you enable them, we store a push token so chapters can announce themselves.

How your words are used

The premises and choices you type are sent to the AI writing and narration providers we use (large language model and text to speech services) solely to produce your story and its audio. They are not used to advertise to you, and we do not sell them or any other data about you to anyone.

Who processes data for us

Supabase stores accounts, stories, and credits.
Cloudflare serves this site, story covers, and audio.
PostHog (US) receives usage analytics and session replays.
AI providers receive your creative inputs to generate text and narration.
Apple handles payments and sign in with Apple.

Sharing between readers

Stories are private to you unless you share one. Sharing a season creates a key; anyone holding it can read that season and hear its narration until you turn sharing off. They can never change or spend anything of yours.

Retention and deletion

Your library is kept so it remains yours. To delete your account and everything in it, email hello@houseofvalerio.com from the address on your account (or with your reader id, shown in the app) and we will remove it.

Changes

If our practices change, this page changes with them, with the date above updated.
