Cuewell Privacy Policy

Effective date: 2026-11-04

Cuewell is a teleprompter: you paste or type a script, and the app scrolls it at your reading speed so you can read it on camera, in a meeting or on stage. You can float it over your camera app in a small picture-in-picture window, control it with a Bluetooth remote or keyboard, and see your practice history and a home screen widget (the "app"). It is provided by DDJ A1 ("we", "us"). This policy explains what data the app handles and how. Cuewell has no account system and we do not run a server for it.

Data stored on your device

Your scripts, your practice history (when you read a script, for how long and at what speed) and your settings (speed, text size, colors, mirror and reminder choices) are stored only on your device. They are not sent to us. Uninstalling the app deletes this data from your device. If device backup is turned on, Android's standard app backup may include this data in your own Google account backup. That backup is controlled by you and Google, not by us.

Files you choose

• Importing a text file. When you choose a text file to import, the app reads only that file, on your device, to create a script.
• Backup and restore. When you back up your scripts, the app writes them to a file at the location you choose. When you restore, it reads only the file you pick. Where that file goes afterwards (for example a cloud drive) is up to you and that service.
• Pasting. When you choose "Paste a script", the app reads the text you copied, once, to create the script.

Sharing a script

When you tap Share script, the app opens the Android share sheet with the script text. Nothing is sent unless you choose an app to share it with; what happens next is up to that app.

Permissions the app asks for and why

• Notifications (optional). Used for short reminders on recording days. You can decline and every feature still works.
• Run at startup. Lets reminders come back after your phone restarts or the time zone changes.
• Vibration. Used only for reminder notifications if you keep notification vibration on.
• Internet access and the advertising identifier (AD_ID). Used only by the advertising components described below. Everything else in the app works offline.

The app does not request the camera, microphone, location, storage or media permissions, or your contacts. Cuewell does not record video or audio; you record with your own camera app while Cuewell shows your script.

Information collected automatically

When you use the app, third-party SDKs used for advertising may collect some information automatically, including:

• Your device's Internet Protocol (IP) address, which may be used to estimate your approximate (general) location
• Device or other identifiers, such as your device's advertising identifier (Advertising ID) and app set ID
• App interactions, such as session time, screens viewed, and ad views and taps
• Crash logs and diagnostic information, such as your device's operating system and model, and ad performance data

The advertising SDK collects this information and shares it with Google (AdMob) and its advertising partners for advertising, analytics, fraud prevention, security and compliance. It is encrypted in transit. The app itself does not send your scripts, practice history or settings off your device, and we do not link the advertising data to them.

Advertising

The app shows advertisements from Google AdMob:

• a banner at the bottom of the main screens (not while you edit a script, and never on the reading screen)
• an ad when the app starts from the launcher
• full-screen ads only between tasks: after you finish reading and return to your scripts, after you create a new script and leave the editor, and after you import a text file
• an ad in the exit dialog
• optional video ads you can choose to watch from Settings to see fewer ads for 24 hours

No ad appears on the reading screen, during the countdown or in the floating window, so ads never interrupt a recording. To serve ads, AdMob and its partners may access your device's Advertising ID and the information described above. In the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom and other regions where required, the app shows a consent form through Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) before personalized advertising data is used. If you decline, you are shown non-personalized ads instead. You can reset or limit ad personalization at any time in your device settings (Settings → Google → Ads), and you can change your consent choice from the app's Settings screen.

For more information on how Google uses data when you use partners' apps, see https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Children

Cuewell is a general-audience app and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your rights

Your app data exists only on your device, so you control it directly: you can edit or delete scripts in the app, and uninstalling the app removes everything the app stored. Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EEA/UK or the CCPA in California), you may also have rights over data processed by advertising SDKs. You can exercise your ad choices through the consent form and your device's ad settings described above.

Changes

We may update this policy. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a new effective date.
