• Name, email address, username, password, and login credentials
• Business name, job title, phone numbers, websites, profile notes, and similar profile details
• Profile photos or uploaded images
• Billing-related information needed to connect your subscription account
• Legal acceptance records, such as agreement to terms, privacy policy, and recurring billing disclosures

3. Information Collected Automatically

We may automatically collect certain technical and usage information when you access or use the Service, including:

• IP address
• Browser type, device type, and operating system
• Log data, timestamps, page requests, referrers, and general usage activity
• Session identifiers, cookie-related information, and similar technical data

We may also record acceptance dates, user agent details, and IP addresses when legal disclosures are accepted during signup or account updates.

4. How We Use Information

We may use collected information to:

• Create, maintain, and secure your account
• Provide, host, display, and manage your public profile, QR code, and vCard files
• Process subscription status and account access
• Send verification emails, service messages, account notices, billing-related notices, and support responses
• Maintain records of legal acceptance and billing authorization
• Diagnose technical issues, improve the Service, and protect against fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our policies and agreements

5. Public Profile Information

The Service is designed to allow certain profile information to be published publicly when you choose to use a hosted public profile. Information you place into your public profile, QR code destination, or downloadable vCard may be visible to third parties, depending on how you configure and share your profile.

You are responsible for deciding what information you include in your profile. Do not include information that you do not want shared or displayed.

6. Payment Information

Subscription billing is processed through third-party payment providers such as PayPal. We do not store your full payment card number on our own systems unless expressly stated otherwise. Payment information is generally collected and processed by the applicable payment provider subject to that provider’s own privacy practices and terms.

We may receive limited payment-related information such as subscription identifiers, status updates, billing state, and transaction metadata needed to activate, manage, or cancel your subscription.

7. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:

• With service providers who help us operate the Service, such as hosting, email delivery, technical infrastructure, and payment-related vendors
• With payment processors in connection with subscription billing and subscription management
• When profile information is intentionally made public through your public profile or downloadable vCard
• If required by law, subpoena, court order, legal process, or governmental request
• To protect our rights, users, systems, business operations, or the public
• In connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or business transition

8. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, operate the business, maintain records, resolve disputes, comply with legal obligations, enforce agreements, and protect the integrity and security of the Service.

If your subscription is cancelled, your access may continue through the paid billing period. After that period ends, your profile, QR code, vCard, photos, and related account data may be scheduled for deletion. Once deleted, some or all of that information may no longer be recoverable.

9. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information. However, no system, transmission method, email route, hosting environment, or storage platform is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

You are also responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and protecting access to your account.

10. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies, session tools, and similar technologies to keep you signed in, maintain sessions, support account security, remember settings, improve functionality, and understand basic usage of the Service.

If you disable cookies or certain browser features, parts of the Service may not function properly.

11. Your Rights and Choices

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information we maintain about you. You may also have rights relating to data portability, limitation of use, or other privacy rights depending on your location and the law that applies to your information.

You may also update certain account and profile information directly through your account tools where available.

12. Children’s Privacy

The Service is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this Service. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us so we can review and address the issue.

The Service may include links to third-party sites or rely on third-party platforms, applications, browsers, contact apps, operating systems, payment services, and email systems. We are not responsible for the privacy, security, policies, or content of third-party services.

Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
