Privacy Policy
This Policy explains what data Support Locals GO collects, why, who sees it, and how to delete it. Maintained by the app owner, not legal advice. Last updated 7/7/2026.
1. What we collect
| Data | Why | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Account (name, email, avatar) | Sign in, display your profile, send account emails | Until you delete your account |
| Selected city | Filter listings, hunts, and the leaderboard | Until you change it |
| Check-in events (business, time, optional GPS) | Verify visits, award points, unlock hunt stops | 24 months, then aggregated |
| Share-proof events (platform, business, city, timestamp, proof URL) | Award social-perk discounts and creator activity | 24 months, then aggregated |
| Points, badges, redemption codes | Run the loyalty program | Until account deletion |
| Referral code + who used it | Attribute invites for creator tiers | 24 months |
| Device + basic analytics (page views, errors) | Keep the app working, fix bugs | 12 months |
We do not collect passwords or follower counts from Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or X. When you tap "Follow" or "Share", we open the platform in your browser — we don't post on your behalf and we don't read your social account.
2. Location
Location is optional and used only at the moment of check-in to confirm you're at the business. We store an approximate distance (in meters) and the business ID — not a continuous location trail. You can decline the location prompt and still check in.
5. Your rights
You can request a copy of your data, correct it, or delete your account at any time by emailing privacy@supportlocals.app (we honor deletion within 30 days). California, Colorado, and EU/UK residents have additional rights (access, portability, opt-out of profiling, appeal); email the same address to exercise them.
6. Children
The App is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has created an account, email us and we'll delete it.
7. Security
Data is transmitted over HTTPS. Passwords are hashed. Access to production data is limited to the app owner. No system is perfectly secure — if you suspect a breach, email privacy@supportlocals.app.
9. Changes
We'll announce material changes in-app or by email at least 7 days before they take effect.
