Privacy Policy
Effective date: June 5, 2026
What information we collect
We collect information you provide directly to us when you create an account, build your profile, or interact with the platform. This may include your name, email address, profile information, photos you upload, and any other content you choose to share. We also collect usage data such as how you navigate the app, the features you use, and your interactions with other users, to help us understand and improve the experience.
How we use the information
We use your information to provide and maintain the hostiv service, personalize your experience, and connect you with experiences and hosts you may love. We may send you emails about your account, new features, or updates we think you will enjoy. We also analyze usage patterns to improve the platform, fix issues, and develop new features that make hosting and discovering experiences even better.
How we store and protect data
Your data is stored securely using Supabase, a trusted infrastructure provider that employs industry-standard encryption and security practices. We take reasonable precautions to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. While we work hard to keep your data safe, no online service can guarantee absolute security, and we encourage you to use strong passwords and keep your account credentials private.
Sharing with third parties
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate hostiv, such as hosting and analytics partners, but only to the extent necessary for them to perform their services. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify.
Your rights
You have the right to access, update, or delete your personal information at any time. You can edit your profile and account settings directly in the app, or contact us if you need assistance. If you wish to delete your account entirely, please reach out and we will process your request promptly. You may also opt out of promotional emails by following the unsubscribe link in any email we send.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and understand how people use hostiv. We also use analytics tools to gather aggregated, anonymized data about app usage. This helps us identify trends, improve performance, and make informed decisions about new features. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.
