SelTopia ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, disclose, and protect information when you use the SelTopia mobile application and related services (the "Service").
By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
1. Scope of This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect through the Service, including when you register an account, sign in, use app features such as Daily Sparkle, Answers, Grounding, Echo, and Cora binding via NFC, and interact with our analytics and support systems.

We collect the following categories of information:
2.1 Account and Authentication Information
When you register, sign in, or maintain an authenticated session, we may collect and process:
Phone number
Email address
Authentication identifiers provided through third-party sign-in providers, including Apple Sign In and Google Sign In
Session-related information, authentication tokens, and similar credentials necessary to maintain login status and secure access
2.2 Information You Create or Enter in the App
When you use certain features, you may enter or generate content within the app.
At this time:
Information entered through Grounding is stored locally on your device
Information entered through Echo is stored locally on your device
We do not currently upload or store Echo or Grounding content on our servers.

To understand how the Service is used, improve performance, and troubleshoot issues, we collect event and usage data, including:
Feature name triggered by the user
Timestamp of the event
Step or stage within the flow
Trigger method, such as Cora or button
This analytics data is collected through our own internal analytics API and stored in our Supabase database.
2.4 Device Interaction Information
When you use Cora binding or related NFC-based interactions, we may process the information necessary to establish, recognize, or manage the connection and trigger the requested function.
2.5 Communications and Verification Data
If you use phone verification, email verification, or receive service-related communications, we may process:
Phone number for SMS verification or service messages
Email address for authentication, account-related communication, or transactional email delivery
3. How We Use Information
We use collected information for the following purposes:
To create and manage user accounts
To authenticate users and maintain secure login sessions
To provide app functionality, including Daily Sparkle, Answers, Grounding, Echo, and Cora binding
To deliver SMS verification and email-based account communications
To monitor usage, analyze product performance, and improve the Service
To detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, security incidents, and technical issues
To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms and policies
4. Local Storage of Echo and Grounding Content
Currently, content entered into or generated through the Echo and Grounding features is stored locally on the user’s device only and is not uploaded to our servers.
Because this content is stored locally:
It may be lost if the app is deleted, the device is reset, or local app data is cleared
It may not be recoverable if the device is lost, damaged, or replaced
It is not currently synchronized across devices
If we introduce cloud backup, syncing, or server-side storage for this content in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and, where required by applicable law, provide additional notice or obtain consent.
5. Third-Party Services and Service Providers
We use third-party services to support the operation of the Service. These providers may process personal data on our behalf or as independent providers where necessary to deliver their services.
Our current third-party services include:
Supabase: authentication, backend services, and database storage
Sanity: content management and related content delivery
Apple Sign In: user authentication
Google Sign In: user authentication
Twilio: SMS verification or phone-related messaging
Postmark: transactional email delivery
These providers may process personal data such as identifiers, contact information, authentication-related data, and technical data strictly as needed to perform their services.
We encourage users to review the privacy policies of these providers:
6. How We Share Information
We do not sell personal information.
We may share information in the following circumstances:
With service providers and infrastructure partners that support authentication, communications, database hosting, analytics storage, and content delivery
With Apple or Google when you choose those sign-in methods
When required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request
When necessary to protect the rights, property, safety, or security of our users, our company, or others
In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar corporate transaction, subject to applicable legal requirements
7. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
In general:
Account and authentication data is retained for as long as your account remains active and as necessary for security and legal compliance
Analytics and event logs are retained for as long as needed for product improvement, operational monitoring, and security review
Echo and Grounding content is currently retained locally on the user’s device only, unless the user deletes it or the device/app data is cleared
You may want to add a specific retention period for analytics later, such as 180 days or 12 months, once you finalize your internal policy.
8. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
These measures may include:
Access controls and authentication safeguards
Secure session management
Principle of least privilege
Encryption in transit where applicable
Logging and monitoring for security and operational purposes
However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to:
Access the personal data we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
Request deletion of your personal data
Request restriction of certain processing
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [Contact Email]. We may need to verify your identity before responding to your request.
10. Children’s Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under the age at which parental consent is required under applicable law, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children in violation of applicable law.
If you believe that a child has provided personal data to us unlawfully, please contact us, and we will take appropriate steps to investigate and address the issue.
11. International Data Transfers
Depending on where you are located and where our service providers operate, your information may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we take appropriate steps to ensure that such transfers are subject to adequate safeguards under applicable data protection laws.
