1.1 Information You Provide

We may collect information you voluntarily provide, including:

When you use the Service, we may automatically collect certain limited information, including:

• Device information (browser type, operating system, device identifiers)

We do not continuously store or track pages you browse. Page or URL-level data is only stored when you actively participate in a Basement associated with that page (for example, by posting or interacting within a chat). Pages that you do not interact with are not persisted by us.

• Improve, personalize, and optimize user experience
• Communicate with you about updates, security, or support matters
• Monitor usage, detect abuse, and enforce our terms

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

4. Public and Social Content

Certain content you submit through the Service may be public by design (for example, comments associated with specific URLs or pages). Any information you choose to make public may be visible to other users and accessible outside the Service.

Please be cautious about the information you share publicly.

You may request deletion of your account or personal data, subject to legal and operational limitations.

6. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure adequate protection of personal data.
