Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Account Information: Email address, display name, avatar, and any profile details you choose to publish.

Contributions: Build paths, signals, lessons, fixes, comments, evidence links, and any media you submit.

Usage Data: Pages viewed, items saved, follows, votes, and interaction patterns used to improve the feed and recommendations.

Technical Data: Browser type, device information, IP address, and cookies used for authentication, security, and analytics.

2. How We Use Your Information

• Operate, secure, and improve the Service
• Personalize your feed, signals, and recommendations
• Moderate community content and enforce the Terms of Service
• Send service-related communications you have not opted out of
• Analyze aggregate usage patterns to prioritize new features

3. AI Processing

AppItYourWay uses AI models to summarize signals, classify lessons, detect duplicates, and verify supporting links. Content you submit may be sent to AI providers strictly for these purposes. We do not allow AI providers to train on your content. AI-generated contributions and summaries are clearly labeled.

4. Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication and security. With your consent we also use analytics cookies to understand how the site is used. See the Cookie Policy for details and how to change your choices.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with:

• Service providers (hosting, database, email, analytics, AI) under data protection agreements
• Web crawling and link-verification services used to vet supporting evidence
• Law enforcement when required by law

6. Public Contributions

Build paths, signals, lessons, comments, and other contributions you publish are public by default, along with your public profile (display name, avatar, bio). You can edit or remove your contributions at any time from your dashboard.

7. Data Retention

We retain your data while your account is active. Deleted accounts have their personal data removed within 30 days. Aggregate, de-identified analytics may be retained indefinitely.

8. Your Rights

You can access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. Contact us at support@appityourway.com to exercise these rights.

9. Children's Privacy

AppItYourWay is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them.
