CineDuo ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application (the "App").

By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum amount of data necessary to provide our core features: Blind Rating, Matching, and Notified Interactions.

A. Account Information (Sign In with Apple)

When you create an account using Sign In with Apple, we receive:

• Name: As provided by Apple (which you can choose to hide or edit).
• Email Address: As provided by Apple. (If you choose "Hide My Email," we receive a private relay email address).
• Apple User ID: A unique identifier to recognize your account.

B. Usage Data (Core Features)

To enable the App's functionality, we collect and store:

• Movie & Series Ratings: Your scores (0-10) for content.
• Watchlist Items: Content you save to watch later.
• Matches: Records of content both you and your partner have liked.
• Partner Connection: The link between your account and your partner's account.

C. Device Information (Notifications)

To send you push notifications (e.g., "It's a Match!", "Ratings Revealed"), we collect:

• Push Notification Token: A unique token generated by Expo and Apple Push Notification Service (APNs) for your specific device.

D. Transaction Data (In-App Purchases)

If you purchase a premium subscription, limited transaction details are processed:

• Payment Information: Handled directly by Apple App Store. We do not store your credit card or bank details.
• Purchase History: We store the status of your subscription (e.g., "Active", "Expired") to unlock premium features.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data solely for the following purposes:

1. To Provide Core Features:
   • Blind Rating: We store your ratings securely and only reveal them to your partner after they have also rated the same content.
   • Matching: We compare your "likes" with your partner's to identify matches.
   • Shared Watchlist: We display items added by you or your partner in a shared list.
2. To Send Notifications:
   • We use your Push Token to notify you about partner activities (e.g., new ratings, new matches, watchlist additions).
3. To Improve the App:
   • We may analyze aggregated, anonymized data to understand popular features (e.g., "Most matched movie this week").

3. Data Storage and Security

All user data is stored securely on Supabase (PostgreSQL database).

• Security: We use Row Level Security (RLS) policies to ensure that your data is only accessible by you and your connected partner. No other user can access your personal ratings or matches.
• Location: Data is hosted in secure data centers compliant with industry standards.
• Encryption: Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest where applicable.

4. Third-Party Services

We share data with trusted third-party services only as necessary to operate the App:

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as your account is active.

• Push Tokens: Updated automatically; invalid tokens are removed.

If you delete your account, all your personal data (profile, ratings, matches, couple connection) is permanently deleted from our database immediately.

6. Your Rights (GDPR & KVKK Compliance)

Under GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and KVKK (Law on Protection of Personal Data), you have the right to:

4. Withdraw Consent: You can disable Push Notifications at any time through your device settings.
