Privacy
You are the customer, not the product. Here is exactly what we collect and why.
What we collect
- Your account: email address and sign-in details (email and password, Google, or a Digi-ID wallet where enabled).
- Your page: the username, text, links, images and status you choose to publish.
- Anonymous visitor statistics, described below.
Visitor statistics
When someone views your page, clicks a link, scans your QR code or saves your contact, we record a count on our own servers. To count unique visitors we use a hashed identifier built from a secret, the day, the IP address and the browser. It changes daily, cannot be reversed, and we never store the raw IP address. Statistics older than 13 months are deleted automatically. No third-party analytics or advertising scripts load on public pages.
Protecting sign-ups from spam
When you create an account we check the email domain and how many accounts were created from the same network in the last hour. For this we keep a one-way hash of your network address, built with a secret, never the address itself; these sign-up records are deleted after 30 days. During a bot attack we may ask for a human check on the sign-up page using Cloudflare Turnstile, which then loads only on that page and is covered by Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Waitlist
While sign-ups are invite-only, you can join our waitlist. We keep only your email address, the username you'd like (if you give one) and the date you joined. When we send you an invite we delete the entry; unanswered entries are deleted automatically after 12 months. Email us to be removed sooner.
Deleting your data
You can unpublish your page at any time, or delete your account in Settings. Deletion removes your profile, content and uploaded files.
