Privacy Policy

How Pigs handles your information.

This first version is plain-language guidance for the Pigs test site. The policy may be refined before broader public use.

Information we collect

When you create an account, Pigs stores your email address, display name, verification status, and profile preferences. When you add a journal entry, Pigs may store your note, location text, uploaded photos, private email, and account-based public name preference.

Public pig content

Pig profiles, public journal notes, public locations, approved photos, and signed-in profile display names you choose to show may be visible to visitors. Guest journal entries show as Anonymous. Private guest email addresses and account email addresses are not shown on public pig pages.

How we use information

Pigs uses account information to sign you in, connect your journal entries to your profile, show your pig history, and support basic administration. Journal information is used to update pig stories and make recent pig activity visible to visitors.

Photos and uploads

Photos you submit with journal entries may be stored and displayed with the pig's public story after submission. Please avoid uploading photos that include sensitive personal information.

Account choices

Signed-in users can choose whether their profile display name is shown on their journal entries. If you delete your account, Pigs disables your sign-in and marks your app profile as deleted. Public journal entries you already added stay visible on pig profiles, but your public attribution changes to Anonymous.

Private contributor identifiers and related metadata may be retained for audit, abuse handling, and debugging unless a later retention policy changes that behavior.

Questions

This placeholder policy is intended to match the current product behavior and will be updated as Pigs grows.
