Welcome to FamilyHub ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our family calendar application.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

Within Your Family

Your calendar data is shared with other members of your family group. Any event you create or participate in will be visible to all family members. This is essential for the core functionality of FamilyHub.

With Third-Party Service Providers

We use Supabase for:

• Database hosting and management
• User authentication and authorization
• Real-time data synchronization
• Secure cloud storage

Supabase is bound by their own privacy policy and security standards. We ensure all third-party providers meet appropriate data protection requirements.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or government regulation, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.

Data Security

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

• All data is transmitted using SSL/TLS encryption
• Passwords are hashed and salted using bcrypt
• Row-level security policies restrict data access
• Regular security audits and updates
• Secure authentication tokens with automatic expiration

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Your Privacy Rights

You have the right to:

• Access: Request a copy of your personal data
• Correction: Update or correct your personal information
• Deletion: Request deletion of your account and all associated data
• Export: Receive your data in a portable format
• Opt-out: Disable certain features or notifications

To exercise these rights, please contact us or use the account deletion option in Settings.

Data Retention

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

Events and calendar data are retained as long as at least one family member remains active. If all family members delete their accounts, the family data is permanently deleted.

Children's Privacy

FamilyHub is designed for family use and may include information about children as family members. Any information about children is collected with your consent as a parent or guardian. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 without parental consent.

International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Cookies and Tracking

We use essential cookies to maintain your session and authenticate your account. These cookies are necessary for the application to function properly. We do not use third-party tracking cookies or analytics services at this time.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
