• License data: license keys, activation timestamps, and device fingerprints used to validate licenses and enforce device limits
• Hand history data: poker hand histories you submit for analysis or troubleshooting
• Usage and diagnostics: website usage data, app errors, IP address, browser or device information, and anti-abuse logs
• Payment records: purchase and billing information handled by payment providers such as Stripe or Gumroad. We do not store full card numbers ourselves.

3. How We Use Your Data

• Provide the Handwise website, desktop app, and related support
• Issue, validate, and support desktop license keys

4. Third Parties

We use third-party providers to operate Handwise, including:

• Supabase: database, authentication, and licensing infrastructure
• Stripe and Gumroad: payment and checkout processing
• Vercel: hosting and website infrastructure
• PostHog and Vercel Analytics: product analytics and performance monitoring, when enabled

We do not sell your personal information.

5. Retention

• License records and activation history are kept as long as needed to support valid licenses, prevent abuse, and comply with legal or tax obligations.
• Hand histories are kept only as long as needed to provide the relevant product feature or support request.
• Short-term security and rate-limit logs may be stored temporarily and then deleted automatically.
• We may retain transaction and support records where required for compliance, accounting, or dispute resolution.

6. Cookies and Analytics

The website may use cookies, local storage, and analytics tools for core functionality, launch updates, and product measurement. Where required by law, analytics are used only with consent.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access, correction, deletion, or export of your personal data. To make a request, contact us at hello@handwise.app.

8. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the date at the top of this page and may provide additional notice where appropriate.
