Your privacy,clearly explained.

We collect information needed to provide and secure Handle. This may include:

• Email address and account credentials.
• Uploaded images, captions, and social handles.
• Bid or ranking information connected to your posts.
• Basic device, browser, and technical information.
• Messages you send to our support team.

We aim to collect only information that is reasonably necessary to operate, protect, and improve the service.

We may use collected information to:

• Create and manage your account.
• Display and rank your posts.
• Provide temporary image hosting.
• Prevent spam, fraud, and abuse.
• Respond to support and removal requests.
• Improve reliability, performance, and user experience.
• Comply with legal obligations.

Posts on Handle are designed to be publicly visible while they are active. Depending on what you submit, public information may include your image, caption, social handle, ranking, and bid-related display information.

Never include passwords, financial details, private addresses, government identification numbers, or other sensitive information in a public post.

Uploaded photos stop appearing in the public gallery after three days. Your R2 storage lifecycle controls deletion of the underlying file.

Deletion may not immediately remove cached versions, backups, screenshots, downloads, or copies created by other people.

Account information and operational records may be retained for longer when reasonably necessary for security, legal, accounting, or dispute-resolution purposes.

We may use cookies, session identifiers, and similar technologies to keep you signed in, protect accounts, understand service performance, and remember essential preferences.

Your browser may allow you to control certain cookies. Disabling essential cookies may affect some features of Handle.

We do not sell your private account information. We may share limited information with service providers that help us operate Handle, such as hosting, storage, authentication, security, analytics, and infrastructure providers.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect users, investigate abuse, enforce our Terms, or protect the rights and safety of Handle and others.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or information about how your data is processed.

To submit a request, contact us using the email address associated with your account. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

Handle is not intended for children who are not legally permitted to use the service in their location. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.

We may update this Privacy Policy as Handle evolves. We will update the date at the top of this page when changes are made. Your continued use of the service after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.
