Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 2024

Optional Account

Basic features work without an account. Create an account only if you want premium features and personalized experience.

Minimal Data Collection

We collect only what's necessary: email for authentication and anonymous usage data to improve the service.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information (If You Create an Account)

If you choose to create an account, we collect your email address for authentication purposes. We also store your subscription tier and feature usage limits. Account data is stored securely using Supabase (our authentication provider). You can use Google OAuth or email magic links to sign in.

Local Storage

Your watchlist, preferences, and settings are stored locally in your browser using localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. This includes anonymized data such as pages visited, time on site, and general geographic region. You can opt-out of analytics by using browser extensions like uBlock Origin or Google Analytics Opt-out.

Push Notifications (Optional)

If you enable push notifications, we store an anonymous subscription identifier to send you alerts. This identifier is not linked to any personal information and can be removed by disabling notifications in your browser settings.
