Name, email, password, avatar, bio, supported teams, posts, poll responses, and support messages.

Usage patterns, device info, IP address, browser type, session tokens, and push notification tokens.

Basic profile info from Apple or Google if you use social sign-in, as permitted by those services.
02
How We Use Your Information
We use your data to provide and personalise the Service, operate polls and community features, send transactional and (optionally) promotional emails, improve performance and security, detect fraud, and comply with legal obligations.
03
Legal Basis for Processing (EEA / UK)
We process your data under contract performance (to deliver the Service), legitimate interests (to improve the Service and prevent abuse), consent (for marketing emails and push notifications, which you may withdraw at any time), and legal obligation where required by law.
04
Sharing Your Information
We do not sell your data. We may share it with service providers acting on our behalf (hosting, analytics, support), other users for any content you post publicly, successors in a business transfer, and authorities where required by law or to protect safety.
05
Data Retention
We keep your data while your account is active. When you delete your account, we delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days unless retention is required for legal, accounting, or safety purposes.
06
Data Security
We use TLS encryption in transit, encrypted password storage, access controls, and regular security reviews. No method of internet transmission is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
07
Cookies
We use strictly necessary cookies for authentication, analytics cookies for aggregate usage statistics, and preference cookies to store your settings. You can control non-essential cookies through your browser; disabling them may affect Service functionality.
08
Your Rights
Depending on your location you may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or port your data, to object to processing, and to withdraw consent at any time. Contact privacy@talkingpoints.live to exercise these rights — we will respond within 30 days. EEA/UK users may also complain to their local data protection authority.
09
Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it promptly.
10
International Transfers
Your data may be processed in countries with different data protection standards. Where we transfer data from the UK or EEA, we use Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent safeguards approved by the relevant authority.
11
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy at any time. We'll notify you of material changes by updating the date above and, for significant changes, via email or in-app prompt. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
