Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely on Supabase servers. Supabase uses industry-standard encryption (TLS in transit, AES-256 at rest) to protect your information.

Data retention: We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your personal data (email, full name, profile picture) will be removed within 30 days. Your public prompts may be retained in anonymised form to preserve community content integrity, unless you explicitly request full deletion.

Security measures: We implement access controls, authentication guards (via Supabase Row-Level Security), and encrypted communication to protect your data. However, no system is 100% secure — please use a strong, unique password for your account.

Your Rights & Choices

You have meaningful control over your data:

Access & Portability: You can view all the information associated with your account directly in the app. Contact us if you need a machine-readable export of your data.

Correction: You can update your username, full name, and profile picture at any time from your profile settings.

Deletion: You can delete individual prompts at any time. To delete your entire account and associated data, contact us at the address below and we will process your request within 30 days.

Opt-out of analytics: Firebase analytics can be limited by adjusting your device's advertising settings. Disabling analytics will not affect your ability to use Flashthink.

Withdraw consent: If you signed in via Google and wish to revoke access, you can remove Flashthink from your Google account's connected apps at any time via myaccount.google.com/permissions.
