Privacy Policy

1. Overview

This policy explains what information DevStackFlow collects when you use the Site, and how it's used. We aim to collect only what's needed to run the Site and improve your learning experience.

2. Information You Provide

If you create an account, we collect your email address and authentication details via our auth provider (Supabase) to let you sign in and save your DSA sheet progress across sessions. We don't ask for or store payment information — the Site is free to use.

3. Information Collected Automatically

We use Google Analytics to understand overall Site usage — pages visited, time on page, and general traffic patterns — so we can improve content and navigation. This is aggregated usage data, not tied to your real-world identity.

4. Local Browser Storage

Some UI preferences (like which DSA sheet sections you've expanded) are stored locally in your browser's storage, not on our servers. Clearing your browser data will reset these preferences.

5. Cookies

We use essential cookies to keep you signed in, analytics cookies (via Google Analytics) to measure Site usage, and advertising cookies set by Google and its partners to serve ads (see Advertising below). You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect sign-in and personalization features.

6. Advertising

The Site may display ads served by Google AdSense to help keep DevStackFlow free. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet. Where required by law (for example, for visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland), we ask for your consent before personalized ads are shown.

7. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to operate core features (like saving your progress), keep your account secure, understand which content is helpful, and improve the Site over time. We don't sell your personal information.

8. Third-Party Services

We rely on trusted third parties to run the Site: Supabase for authentication and data storage, Google Analytics for usage insights, and Google AdSense for advertising. Each handles data under its own privacy policy.

9. Data Security

We take reasonable technical measures to protect your information, but no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. Use a unique password for your DevStackFlow account.

10. Your Choices

You can update your account details, sign out at any time, or ask us to delete your account and associated data by contacting us below.

11. Children's Privacy

DevStackFlow is intended for learners generally 13 years of age and older and isn't directed at young children. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the Site evolves. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.
