For users in the EU/EEA, we process personal data based on contractual necessity, legitimate interests such as platform security and product improvement, legal obligations, and consent where consent is required.

We retain personal data for as long as it is needed to operate the app, maintain safety, resolve disputes, comply with legal requirements, and support legitimate business records.
