Privacy Policy — Chore Scorez

1. Introduction

Chore Scorez ("we," "our," or "us") operates the website chorescorez.com and the application at app.chorescorez.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you use our services. By using Chore Scorez, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly when you create an account or use the app:

Account information: email address and display name used to create your account.
Household data: household name, chore templates, chore assignments, completion records, and payout history.
Profile data: optional profile photo (avatar) uploaded by the user.
Chore submission photos: photos uploaded by children to prove chore completion, stored securely and accessible only within your household.
Usage data: basic technical information such as browser type, device, and pages visited, collected automatically.

3. How We Use Your Information

To provide, operate, and maintain the Chore Scorez service.
To send transactional emails such as household invitations and account verification.

To respond to support requests.
To comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising.

4. Children's Privacy

Chore Scorez is designed for use by families. Child accounts are created only through a parent-initiated invite process. Parents are responsible for managing their children's accounts and data.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent as provided through the household invite flow. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us immediately.

All child account data is scoped to the parent's household and is not shared outside it.

5. Data Storage and Security

Chore Scorez uses Supabase for authentication, database, and file storage. Data is stored on secure cloud infrastructure. Access is protected by row-level security policies that limit data access strictly to members of the relevant household.

While we implement industry-standard security measures, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate Chore Scorez:

Supabase — authentication, database, and file storage.
Resend — transactional email delivery (invitations, notifications).
Vercel — hosting and deployment.

Each of these services has its own privacy policy governing their use of data.

7. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data within a reasonable timeframe, subject to any legal obligations.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights including the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address below.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
