Legal Requirements

We may disclose your information if required by law, such as in response to a subpoena, court order, or government request.

Business Transfers

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information:

  • TLS encryption for all data in transit
  • Encrypted storage for sensitive data at rest
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • Access controls and authentication requirements
  • Employee security training

However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your account information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you the Service. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal information within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal purposes.

Your email data stored in your Supabase database is not affected by account deletion and remains under your control.

Your Data Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you

  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal information
  • Portability: Request a copy of your data in a portable format
  • Objection: Object to processing of your personal information
  • Restriction: Request restriction of processing in certain circumstances

Since your email data is stored in your own database, you have complete control over it. You can access, modify, or delete your data at any time through Supabase.
