Privacy Policy | CirclePass

Last updated: November 2, 2025

Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains how CirclePass (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website and services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum information necessary to operate and improve CirclePass.
Depending on your use of the Service, this may include:

  • Account information: email address or authentication ID (when you sign in).
  • Usage data: device type, browser, time zone, and interactions within the app (for performance and security).
  • Subscription data: limited payment details (processed by our payment partners, such as Stripe or LemonSqueezy).
  • QR verification data: pseudonymous identifiers used only for verification between members of private circles — not for tracking or profiling.

We do not collect or store sensitive personal data such as biometric information, messages, or precise location.

2. How We Use Information

We use your information to:

  • Provide, operate, and improve the CirclePass service.
  • Authenticate users and verify memberships securely.
  • Process payments and manage subscriptions.
  • Ensure the reliability and security of our platform.
  • Communicate with you when necessary (e.g., support inquiries or important updates).

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data.

3. Data Security

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to safeguard your data, including encryption, access controls, and secure storage.
However, no system is completely secure. You acknowledge and accept this risk when using the Service.

4. Pseudonymity and Data Minimization

CirclePass is designed with privacy in mind.
Verification occurs through temporary QR codes and pseudonymous identifiers — not by exposing personal data between users.
We retain only minimal logs needed for auditing and security.

5. Third-Party Services

We may use trusted third-party providers for analytics, authentication, or payment processing.
These providers process limited data under their own privacy policies (e.g., Stripe, LemonSqueezy, Supabase Auth).
We encourage you to review their respective policies for more details.

6. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your data.
You can request data deletion or account closure by contacting us at support@circlepass.app.
You may also limit data collection by disabling cookies or analytics in your browser.

7. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as necessary to provide the Service or comply with legal obligations.
QR-based verification data is short-lived and automatically expires after use.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.
The “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent version.
Your continued use of CirclePass after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
