Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly (for example, account registration details, listing edits, claim verification details, contact requests, and support messages).

We also collect technical and usage data such as device/browser metadata, IP address, page visits, referring source, and in-product interactions used for analytics and abuse prevention.

2. How We Use Information

• Provide and improve directory search, listing management, and claim workflows.
• Authenticate users and manage role-based access.
• Communicate transactional notices and account/security messages.
• Measure platform performance and protect against fraud, abuse, or unauthorized activity.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce platform terms.

3. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information. We may share data with service providers that help us operate the platform (for example, hosting, authentication, email delivery, payment, analytics, and monitoring) under contractual safeguards.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with business transfers such as a merger or acquisition.

4. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies for session management, authentication, preferences, analytics, and security. You can manage cookie settings in your browser, but some platform functionality may be limited if disabled.

5. Data Retention

We keep information for as long as needed to provide services, maintain accurate records, resolve disputes, and meet legal/compliance requirements. Retention periods vary by data type and account status.

6. Security

We apply administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is fully secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, update, delete, or export your information, and to object to certain processing. You may also update profile settings directly in your account.

8. Children's Privacy

The service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Material updates will be posted with a new effective date.
