We may collect the following personal data:

  • Account information (email, username)
  • User content (posts, likes)
  • Technical logs (IP address, user agent, timestamps)
  • Preferences (theme, settings)

3. Purpose and legal basis

We process personal data to:

  • Provide and operate the service (contractual necessity)
  • Maintain security and prevent abuse (legitimate interest)
  • Comply with legal obligations
  • With your consent when required (analytics, marketing)

4. Third-party processors

We use third-party services to host and operate the site. Current processors include:

  • GitHub Pages — hosting static site assets (GitHub, Inc.)
  • Supabase — database and auth (data processor)

Before adding other processors (analytics, ads), we will update this policy and, when required, collect consent.

5. Data retention

6. Your rights (GDPR)

If you are located in the EU, you have rights under the GDPR:

  • Right of access
  • Right to rectification
  • Right to erasure
  • Right to restrict processing
  • Right to data portability
  • Right to object

To exercise your rights, contact: contact [at] bytebeat [dot] cloud. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

7. Cookies

The service uses:

  • Essential cookies — required for authentication and preferences
  • No third-party advertising cookies are used by default

8. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect data, including encryption in transit (HTTPS) and secure storage provided by our processors. However, no system is 100% secure.

9. International transfers

Processing may involve transfers to countries outside the EU. We rely on processors that provide appropriate safeguards (data residency options, standard contractual clauses) — check the processor documentation for details.
