  • Google — if you sign in with Google (for authentication only)
  • Authorities — where required by valid legal process

5. Data retention

We retain account data while your account is active. When you delete your account we delete or anonymize personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (e.g. tax records held by Paddle).

8. Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication and session management. We do not use advertising cookies. Paddle's checkout may set its own cookies to process your payment.
