Last updated: [Date]

LivelyLys Manufacturing List (“we”) respects your privacy. This policy describes what data we collect and how we use it.

1. Information we collect

We collect information you provide: email, name, password (hashed), and optional profile data when you register or use features such as submitting a vendor, leaving a review, or submitting a match request. We also collect usage data (e.g. pages visited) and, where applicable, payment information processed by Stripe.

2. How we use it

We use your information to operate the directory, process subscriptions, moderate submissions, fulfill match requests, and communicate with you. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

3. Cookies and authentication

We use cookies and similar technologies for authentication (e.g. NextAuth session) and to maintain your preferences. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

4. Third parties

We use Stripe for payments; their privacy policy applies to payment data. If you sign in with Google, Google’s privacy policy applies to that sign-in. We may use analytics or hosting providers that process data on our behalf under agreements that protect your data.

5. Data retention and security

We retain your data as long as your account is active or as needed for legal and operational purposes. We implement reasonable security measures to protect your data.

6. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal data. Contact us using the email on the site to exercise these rights.

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page and update the “Last updated” date.
