We use trusted service providers to run essential parts of the platform. These services only access data required to perform their functions:

• MongoDB Atlas - Database storage
• Firebase - Hosting infrastructure
• Cloudinary & Mega - Media storage and delivery
• Ably - Real-time features such as live updates and interactions

These providers act as data processors and operate under their own privacy and security policies.

We use industry-standard security practices to safeguard your information and prevent unauthorized access. Session tokens are stored in secure, HTTP-only cookies to prevent client-side access and protect user accounts.

Content you upload (such as media files) is stored using secure third-party cloud storage services.

We do not sell, share, or rent your personal information to any third parties.

Information may only be disclosed if required by law, to comply with legal obligations, or to protect the rights and safety of our users and platform.

As a user of the platform, you have the right to:

• A. Delete Your Account & Data

  You can request deletion of your account and associated data.

  This permanently removes your profile, shelves, messages, bookmarks and most associated data except Posts, Comments, Reactions on Posts and Likes on Comments as they belong to the thread they are created in.

  However, if you want to remove them as well, you can individually delete them and then request for deletion of your account.

• B. Request Corrections

  You may request corrections or modifications to your account information if it is inaccurate or incomplete.

We do not perform analytics, so there is no tracking data to opt out of.

To exercise these rights, you may contact us using the information provided below.

A. Cookies

We use cookies to:

• Manage login sessions
• Store secure session tokens
• Support basic platform functionality

All authentication cookies are HTTP-only and secure.

B. IndexedDB

IndexedDB is used to store certain non-sensitive data locally on your device to improve speed and offline experience.

The platform is intended for individuals 13 years of age or older.

If we learn that someone under 13 has created an account, we may delete the account to comply with safety standards.

We implement reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

This includes secure token handling, device-based uniqueness detection, and restricted access to sensitive systems.

Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

When updates are made, the "Last Updated" date will be revised accordingly. Continued use of the platform after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
