Sharing
We do not sell personal data. We use a small number of processors to provide the service (Stripe for billing, Supabase for data storage, Resend for transactional email, Clerk for authentication, Vercel for hosting and analytics). These processors are bound by their own agreements with us and only process data on our instructions.
Retention
Account and billing records are retained for the life of the account plus any period required by tax and accounting law. Newsletter subscriptions are retained until you unsubscribe. Support correspondence is retained for routine business records and then deleted.
Your rights
You may request access, correction, deletion, or portability of your data, and you may object to or restrict certain processing. You can withdraw newsletter consent at any time by clicking unsubscribe in any email, and analytics consent in the Cookie policy.
International transfers
Data is processed in the United States. Where applicable we rely on appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.

This site is not directed to children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
