Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

We collect the minimum information needed to run the Service:

• Your email address — to create your account and send nudge reminders
• Your password — stored as a bcrypt hash, never in plain text
• Your contact names and notes — to send you reminders
• Your check-in history — to calculate when reminders are due

2. What we do not collect

We do not collect your real name, phone number, location, or any information beyond what is listed above. We do not use tracking pixels, analytics scripts, or advertising cookies.

3. How we use your data

We use your data only to provide the Service — sending you reminder emails when a contact is overdue. We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any other purpose.

4. Who we share data with

We share data with the following third parties only as necessary to operate the Service:

• Mailtrap — email delivery. Your email address is shared to send reminder emails.
• Paddle — payment processing. Your payment details are handled entirely by Paddle. We never see your card number.
• Linode — hosting. Your data is stored on servers in the United States.

5. Data retention

We keep your data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account all your data is permanently deleted within 24 hours.

6. Security

We use industry-standard practices — bcrypt password hashing, HTTPS for all connections, and encrypted database connections. No system is perfectly secure but we take reasonable precautions.

7. Your rights

You can delete your account and all associated data at any time. You can request a copy of your data by emailing us. You can update your email address by contacting us.

8. Cookies

We do not use cookies. We use localStorage in your browser to store your session token. This is essential for the Service to work and contains no personal information beyond the session token itself.
