Privacy Policy

How PuntSocial collects, uses, shares, protects, and responds to requests about personal data.

1. Data we collect

We collect account identifiers and contact details supplied through Clerk; profile details and images you choose to add; published slips, comments, votes, bookmarks, follows, reports, and feature requests; device, security, and diagnostic information; and support communications. Provider booking codes and resulting sports records are processed to publish and verify slips.

2. Why we use it

We use personal data to provide and personalize the service, authenticate accounts, display public profiles and content, verify records, calculate rankings, deliver notifications, prevent abuse, respond to requests, troubleshoot problems, keep audit trails, and comply with legal obligations.

3. Public information

Your display name, username, profile and cover images, bio, public slips, public performance statistics, comments, and social interactions may be visible to anyone, including people without an account. Do not publish information you want to keep private.

4. Service providers and disclosures

We use processors including Clerk for authentication, Supabase for database and file storage, and Vercel for hosting. Those providers process data under their own terms and security practices. We may also disclose data when required by law, to protect people or the service, during a business transaction, or with your direction. We do not sell personal data.

5. Retention and security

We retain data while your account is active and as reasonably needed for the purposes above. Security, moderation, legal, backup, and integrity records may be retained longer. We use access controls, encrypted transport, managed authentication, and restricted server credentials, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.

6. Your choices and rights

You can edit profile information and notification choices in Settings. Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, or information about processing. Use Data and account controls or email support@puntsocial.app. We may verify identity before acting and may retain data where legally permitted or required.

7. Children and age restriction

PuntSocial is not for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly allow under-18 accounts. See our Age Policy for reporting and removal information.

8. International processing and changes

Our providers may process information in countries other than yours with appropriate safeguards required by applicable law. We will update the effective date and provide reasonable notice of material policy changes.

9. Contact

Send privacy questions or requests to support@puntsocial.app. Before public launch, the operator should replace this address with a monitored mailbox and add its legal name and contact address.
