1. Overview

FootFeed ("we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices regarding your information.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information

Creating an account is optional. If you sign up, we collect the email address and optional display name you provide, along with the authentication data needed to sign you in (a securely hashed password and a session identifier). We use this only to operate your account and to store the photos you mark as favorites.

Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our Service, we may automatically collect certain information, including:

• Browser type and version
• Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
• Pages visited and time spent on pages
• Referring website or source
• General location (country/region level, not precise location)

Analytics

We use privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics to understand how the Service is used in aggregate — for example, which pages are viewed and how visitors navigate between them. This data is anonymized, is not used to identify you, does not rely on tracking cookies, and is never sold or used for advertising.

Local Storage

We use your browser's local storage to remember preferences and settings on your device. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings.

3. Information We Do Not Collect

We do not collect:

• Payment information (the Service is free to use)
• Precise geolocation data
• Your mailing address or phone number

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.

4. How We Use Information

We use collected information to:

• Provide and maintain the Service
• Create and manage your account, and keep you signed in
• Save and display the photos you mark as favorites
• Send account-related emails, such as email verification
• Understand how users interact with our Service
• Improve and optimize the user experience
• Identify and fix technical issues

5. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may process information:

• Vercel - Hosting and deployment. Vercel may collect server logs as described in their privacy policy.
• PostHog - Privacy-friendly, cookieless product analytics (EU-hosted). Processes anonymized usage events as described in their privacy policy.
• Email delivery - Account and verification emails are sent through a third-party email provider, which processes your email address to deliver them.

6. Cookies and Tracking

If you sign in, we use a strictly necessary cookie to keep you logged in. We do not use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking, and our analytics is cookieless. We also use browser local storage for on-device preferences. You can clear cookies and local storage at any time through your browser settings.

7. Data Retention

Account information (including your favorites) is retained while your account is active, and is deleted when you delete your account. Analytics data is retained in aggregate form and is not linked to individual users. Local storage data remains on your device until you clear it.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access, update, or delete your account and saved favorites
• Clear your local storage and cookies at any time through your browser settings
