Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-05-04
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Kindryn (the “Service”) collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use the Service. By using Kindryn you consent to the practices described here.
2. Information We Collect
Information you provide
- Account information. Name, email address, password (hashed), profile picture, biography, and similar profile details.
- Community content. Posts, comments, messages, course progress, event RSVPs, and other content you create within the Service.
- Payment information. Billing address and payment method details (processed and stored by our third-party payment processor; the operator does not store full card numbers).
- Communications. Support requests, feedback, and emails you send to the operator.
Information collected automatically
- Usage data. Pages visited, features used, timestamps, referring URLs, and similar analytics signals.
- Device data. IP address, browser type and version, operating system, and device identifiers.
- Cookies and similar technologies. Used for authentication, preference storage, and (where applicable) analytics. You can control cookies through your browser.
3. How We Use Information
- Provide, operate, and maintain the Service.
- Process payments and manage subscriptions.
- Send transactional email (account, billing, calendar invites, notifications).
- Respond to support requests and communicate with you.
- Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and security incidents.
- Comply with legal obligations.
- Improve the Service through aggregated, de-identified analytics.
4. How We Share Information
The operator does not sell personal information. We may share information with:
- Other community members. Information you post to a community space is visible to other members of that space according to its access rules.
- Service providers. Third-party vendors that help operate the Service, including payment processors (Stripe), email delivery, video infrastructure (LiveKit), object storage (e.g., MinIO/S3), and search (Meilisearch). These vendors are contractually limited to using your data only as needed to provide their services.
- Community operators. If you join a community, the community operator (admins) can see your profile and activity within that community.
- Legal compliance. When required by law, court order, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of the operator, our users, or others.
- Business transfers. If the operator is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
5. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Soft-deleted records may be retained for a reasonable recovery window before permanent deletion.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, port, or restrict processing of your personal information, and to withdraw consent or object to processing. To exercise these rights, contact the operator using the channel posted on the homepage or in your account settings. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
7. Security
The operator uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and the operator cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. International Transfers
The operator may process and store data in jurisdictions other than your own. Where required by applicable law, appropriate transfer mechanisms (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses) will be used.
9. Children
The Service is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact the operator and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
10. Third-Party Links
The Service may contain links to third-party sites whose privacy practices differ from ours. We are not responsible for those sites’ practices and recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing information.
11. Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via the Service or by email. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised.
12. Contact
For questions about this Privacy Policy or to exercise your rights, contact the operator of this Kindryn instance through the contact channel posted on the homepage or in your account settings.
