This policy explains what information WhyThere collects, how we use and share it, and the privacy choices and rights available to you.
Where required by law, we process personal data based on one or more of the following legal bases: legitimate interests (operating and improving the service), consent (for certain cookies/ads where required), contract (responding to requested services), and legal obligations (compliance and security).
We use service providers to help run WhyThere. Depending on feature usage and deployment setup, this may include providers such as Netlify (hosting), Supabase/Postgres (data storage), and Google services (for analytics and advertising, including AdSense). These providers may process identifiers, cookie data, usage signals, and IP/device metadata according to their own privacy policies.
We do not sell personal information for money. We may share data with service providers, affiliates, and legal authorities when required to operate the service, enforce terms, protect users, or comply with law.
You can control cookies through browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect site behavior. You can review ad personalization options through Google Ad Settings and similar provider controls. You may also opt out of some browser-based interest advertising through industry opt-out tools.
We retain data only as long as needed for legitimate business and operational purposes. In general, application logs and diagnostics are retained for a limited operational period; account/contact records are retained while needed for support and compliance; aggregated or de-identified analytics may be retained longer. We delete or anonymize data when practical.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, portability, or restriction of processing, and to object to certain uses of your information. You may also have the right to appeal decisions on privacy requests. We will not discriminate against you for exercising applicable rights.
If you are a resident of a US state with a privacy law (such as California), you may have rights to know, access, correct, delete, and opt out of certain data sharing for targeted advertising. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your request.
Your information may be processed in countries other than where you live, including the United States. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.
We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. No system is 100% secure, but we continuously work to reduce risk and improve resilience.
WhyThere is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and remove it.
To submit an access, deletion, or correction request, email us with the subject line "Privacy Request" and include enough detail for us to identify your request. We may request additional verification information before fulfilling it.
