# Deletion Tool

Reading an article on the internet can be especially distracting, with various elements such as images, ads, and other content eying for our attention.

To combat this issue, Reader Mode strips away distracting elements and presents the content in a clean, distraction-free format. While this is a great feature, it is not always perfect. Some articles may contain elements that we find distracting or irrelevant to the content we wish to read.

This is where a `Deletion Tool` for Reader Mode comes in. This feature allows users to delete or remove unwanted elements from the distraction-free reader page of an article. With this tool, users can remove images, words, tables, or any other element that they find distracting.

<figure><img src="/files/9O3BtnB3MkEpBkP43JP9" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

To use this feature, click on `Delete` icon on the toolbar at the top of Reader Mode distraction-free reader. Hover and start clicking the items that you to remove. Click `Save` once done editing the content.

# Edit Content

The `Edit Content` feature takes Reader Mode to new heights by granting users the ability to edit the content they are reading. This means you can make changes to the text, adjust images, format paragraphs, and more, all within the app itself. This innovative addition empowers users to personalize their reading experience and interact with the content in a way that suits their preferences and needs.

<figure><img src="/files/8PvrktaB6gbEAYjJCX6g" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

To use this feature, click on `Edit` icon on the toolbar at the top of Reader Mode distraction-free reader. Click `Save` once done editing the content.

Whether you stumble upon an intriguing piece while browsing the web or come across a recommendation within the app, Reader Mode has got you covered.

Dyslexia fonts are typefaces that are designed to make reading easier for people with dyslexia. These fonts have specific features that make them easier to read, such as larger spaces between letters, different letter shapes, and thicker strokes. The goal of dyslexia fonts is to make reading less challenging for people with dyslexia by reducing the number of errors and improving reading speed.

# Auto-run

Activating Reader Mode's distraction-free reader manually every time can be tiresome, especially when visiting the same websites frequently. That's where an Auto-run feature for Reader Mode comes in.

An Auto-run feature for Reader Mode allows the user to specify websites where Reader Mode should activate automatically, using a [regular expression (regex)](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions) pattern. Regex patterns are powerful tools for matching text, and they can be used to match website URLs too. The user can specify a regex pattern that matches the URLs of the websites they want Reader Mode to activate on automatically.

For example, let's say you frequently read articles on a blog with a URL like *<https://example.com/blog/post/123>*. You could create a regex pattern like `^https://example.com/blog/` to match all URLs that start with *<https://example.com/blog/>*. Or you can create a regex pattern such as `/bbc.co.uk\/news/` to match all URLs that contains *bbc.co.uk/news*. Then, you could pu these patterns on the Auto-run feature settings for Reader Mode to activate on all URLs that match these patterns.

**How to use Auto-run feature on Reader Mode**

* Click on the [Settings menu](/using-reader-mode/reader-mode/reader-mode-settings)
* On the `Auto-run rules` section, enter your regex pattern seperated by comas

This feature eliminates the need to manually scroll down the page, which can be a tedious and distracting process. Instead, the article will smoothly scroll down the page at a pace that is comfortable for the user, allowing them to focus on the content without any interruptions.

# Note

For many people, reading and research are essential parts of their daily lives.

# Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. Reader Mode collects absolutely zero personal data from users

For Reader Mode Free, Pro and Education, all data such as highlights, notes and pages are stored locally on the computer which you have installed Reader Mode on. For Reader Mode Premium, these data are stored on our secure server and only you can access these data via your connected account. Meanwhile for shared pages, a random, unique, and anonymous string is used to verify identity, not anything related to your personal information.

Data protection and privacy laws provide you with the ability to exercise some rights regarding your Personal Data that we hold (which might be different in each jurisdiction) such as; right to access your Personal Data; right of rectification; the right to erasure of your Personal Data; right to restrict processing of your Personal Data; the right to object to processing of your Personal Data; data portability; the right to file a complaint to a supervisory authority (in the event you are EEA resident); and, the right to withdraw consent. For more information, please review our User Rights Overview.

If you wish to exercise any or all of the above rights, please fill out the Data Subject Request Form (“DSR”) form available here, and send it to our Data Protection Officer at: <ryzalyusoff@gmail.com> and let us know that you wish to exercise your right of access and specify what Personal Data you would like to receive.

Where we are not able to provide you with the information for which you have asked, we will endeavor to explain the reasoning for this and inform you of your rights, including the right to complain to the supervisor authority. We reserve the right to ask for reasonable evidence to verify your identity before we provide you with any such information in accordance with applicable law. In addition, the process of locating and deleting the data may take up to one (1) month (following the receipt of the validation proof we require) in accordance with applicable law.

Data privacy and related laws in your jurisdiction may provide you with different or additional rights related to the data we collect from you, which may also apply.

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.<br>

**Binding Arbitration**\
Any dispute arising from the relationships between the Parties to these Legal Terms shall be determined by one arbitrator who will be chosen in accordance with the Arbitration and Internal Rules of the European Court of Arbitration being part of the European Centre of Arbitration having its seat in Strasbourg, and which are in force at the time the application for arbitration is filed, and of which adoption of this clause constitutes acceptance. The seat of arbitration shall be Manchester, England. The language of the proceedings shall be English. Applicable rules of substantive law shall be the law of England.<br>
