Privacy Policy

Last updated: [DATE]

This Privacy Policy explains how Tended Love (“we,” “us,” or “the app”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our service. Tended Love helps couples strengthen their relationship through guided exercises and reflection, which means we handle information that is personal and, at times, intimate. We take that responsibility seriously.

Information we collect

  • Account information: your email address, name, and gender.
  • Relationship content: your responses to exercises, check-ins, appreciations, notes, and any other content you or your partner create in the app.
  • Profile details: optional information you add, such as your anniversary, birthday, timezone, bio, and avatar image.
  • Technical information: basic request metadata (such as IP address and browser type) used to operate the service securely and prevent abuse.

How we use your information

  • To provide the app’s features and show shared content to you and your connected partner.
  • To send transactional emails (verification, password resets, reminders, and invitations).
  • To keep the service secure, including rate limiting and abuse prevention.
  • To improve the app’s reliability and diagnose errors.

Sharing with your partner

Some content is designed to be shared with the partner you connect with. Content marked as private stays private to you. When you disconnect from a partner, comparative and shared views are hidden, though each person retains their own responses.

Service providers

We rely on trusted third parties to run the service. These may include hosting and database infrastructure (e.g., Vercel and our database provider), transactional email delivery (Resend), and file storage for avatar images. These providers process data only to provide their services to us. [Confirm and complete this list before launch.]

Data retention

We keep your information for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we remove your personal data and associated content, except where we are required to retain limited records for legal or security reasons.

Your rights

You can access and export your data, and delete your account, from your account settings. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR or CCPA, including the right to correct or restrict processing of your information. To exercise these rights, contact us at [CONTACT EMAIL].

Children

Tended Love is intended for adults. You must be 18 or older to create an account. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, notify you.
