Welcome to Bindfy. We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the Bindfy mobile application ("App").
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you disagree with its terms, please discontinue use of the App.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes.
4. How We Share Your Information

We may disclose your information if required by law or in response to valid requests from public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency).
5. Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time through the App settings.
Some data may be retained for a limited period after account deletion to comply with legal obligations or to resolve disputes.
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal data, including:
- Encryption of data in transit (HTTPS/TLS)
- Encrypted data storage
- Secure authentication via Supabase Auth
- Access controls limiting who can access your data
However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
