Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

When you sign in with Google or Microsoft, we store the basic profile information your identity provider shares with us — your name, email address, and profile image — so we can attribute your posts and votes to you. We also store a session record that includes your IP address and browser user agent to keep you signed in and to protect against abuse.

If you post a strategy, reply, or cast a vote, we store that content and associate it with your account. This includes the strategy's title, summary, situation tags, verdict, and votes, as well as any replies, links, and citations you provide.

2. How we use your information

We use your information to operate taxsly: to display your posts and votes, to attribute content to you, to moderate content, and to keep the community safe. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.

3. Cookies and analytics

We use essential cookies to keep you signed in. We may collect anonymous, aggregated usage data to understand how the site is used and to improve it. We do not use advertising or third-party marketing cookies.

4. How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. Your contributions are public: strategies, replies, and votes are displayed to other users of the platform. We share information with service providers only as needed to operate the site — for example, our hosting provider and our authentication providers (Google and Microsoft, which process your sign-in under their own privacy policies).

5. Data retention

We keep your account and contributions for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account at any time, after which we remove your personal information from our systems. Session and log data are retained for shorter periods unless needed for security investigations.

6. Data security

We protect your data with encryption in transit (TLS) and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to safeguard your information.

7. Children's privacy

taxsly is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be noted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

9. Contact

If you have questions about this policy or your data, please contact us through the site. See our Terms of Service for the rules governing your use of taxsly.
