Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Florafolio ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to it.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly, such as name, email, profile settings, collection and plant records, photographs, map positions, botanical contributions, feedback, and support messages. We also collect information automatically, such as usage logs, IP address, device information, and security events. If you allow it, we use your device location to centre a map; that location is not stored unless you place a plant with it.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to provide and improve the Service, authenticate users, process subscriptions, send transactional email, synchronise your collections across your devices, respond to support requests, comply with legal obligations, and prevent fraud and abuse.

4. Publicly Contributed Data

Botanical records you contribute to the shared index are published to all users, without your name or email attached. Your own plants, photographs, notes, and map positions are private to your account unless you choose to make a collection unlisted or public.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with trusted service providers who assist in operating the Service, such as cloud hosting, authentication, billing, email delivery, error monitoring, analytics, and customer support, subject to appropriate safeguards.

6. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. You may request export or deletion of your account data from Settings.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and to data portability. To exercise these rights, contact us at the address below.

9. International Transfers

Your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence. We implement appropriate safeguards for such transfers in accordance with applicable data protection law.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by updating the "Last Reviewed" date above.
