By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the practices described herein, please do not use the Service.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways:
2.1 Information You Provide Directly
- Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and authentication credentials. If you register using a third-party service (e.g., Google OAuth), we receive your name and email address from that service.

- Payment Information: When you subscribe to a paid plan, payment information (such as credit card details and billing address) is collected and processed securely by Paddle.com Market Limited ("Paddle"), which acts as our Merchant of Record. Paddle processes all payments, handles sales tax and VAT, and manages billing on our behalf. We do not directly store or have access to your full credit card number. For details on how Paddle handles your data, please see Paddle's Privacy Policy.
- Communications: When you contact us for support, provide feedback, or communicate with us through email or other channels, we collect the content of those communications along with associated metadata (e.g., timestamps, email addresses).

These providers are contractually obligated to use your information only as necessary to provide services to us and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.
- With Your Consent: We may share your information when you explicitly authorize us to do so.
6. Data Security
