Susu includes AI-powered features such as chat companion, text enhancement, and mood analysis:

- AI conversations are not stored on our servers after processing.
- We do not use your diary entries or AI conversations for training AI models.

5. Memory Books & Sharing
Susu allows you to create memory books and share them:
- Private Books: Unpublished memory books are stored locally on your device and are not accessible to anyone else.
- Published Books: When you publish a memory book, its content is stored on our servers and accessible via a unique share link. You can unpublish at any time.
- Password-Protected Books: You can add password protection to your books for additional privacy.
- PDF Export: When you export a book or diary entry as PDF, the file is generated locally on your device and shared through your device's sharing mechanism. We do not receive a copy.

6. Notifications
Susu can send you local notifications to remind you to write:
- Notifications are handled entirely on your device using local notification services.
- We do not use push notification servers — all reminders are scheduled locally.
- You can customize or disable notifications at any time in the app settings.
7. Third-Party Services
The App may use the following third-party services:

Each third-party service has its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review their policies.
