• and unique account identifiers.

C. Location Information

If you grant permission, we may collect approximate or device-based location information to support features such as:

You can control location access through your device settings.

E. Content and Activity Data

We may collect information related to how you use the Services, including:

• listings viewed or saved,
• profile interactions,
• content submissions,
• reports,
• preferences,
• and activity related to community features.

We may use your information to:

• personalize your experience,
• show relevant local or community-related content,
• support listings, discovery, and profile features,
• respond to support requests,
• detect fraud, abuse, spam, or security issues,
• monitor performance and fix bugs,
• enforce our Terms and policies,
• and comply with legal obligations.

We may also use aggregated or de-identified information for analytics, product improvement, and business operations.

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information in the following situations:

A. With Service Providers

We may share information with vendors and service providers who help us operate Diaspora Hub, such as providers for:

• authentication,
• cloud hosting,
• analytics,
• storage,
• customer support,
• crash reporting,
• and infrastructure.

B. With Other Users or Public Areas

Some information may be visible to other users depending on how you use the app, such as:

• your display name,
• profile information,
• listing submissions,
• public-facing content,
• or community-related activity you choose to share.

C. For Safety, Legal, and Security Reasons

We may disclose information if we believe doing so is necessary to:

• comply with the law,
• respond to legal requests,
• enforce our Terms,
• protect users or the public,
• or detect, prevent, or address fraud, abuse, or security issues.

D. Business Transfers

If Diaspora Hub is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of assets, or similar transaction, information may be transferred as part of that process.

Diaspora Hub may use location-related information to support local discovery and community features.

We aim to limit exposure of precise location information and may instead use:

• approximate location,
• general area,
• city-level signals,
• or other privacy-conscious methods depending on the feature.

However, no system is perfect, and you should use care when sharing personal or location-sensitive information on your profile or through the app.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to:

• provide the Services,
• maintain your account,
• comply with legal obligations,
• resolve disputes,
• enforce agreements,
• and support legitimate business operations.

We may retain some information after account deletion where required or permitted by law, or where necessary for security, fraud prevention, backup, or operational integrity.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights or choices regarding your information, including the ability to:

• access or update certain account information,
• manage profile visibility,
• manage location permissions,
• opt out of certain communications,
• request deletion of your account or data,
• or contact us with privacy-related questions.

You can also control certain permissions (such as location access) directly through your device settings.

To make a privacy request, contact us at support@diasporahubs.com.

Diaspora Hub is not intended for children under 13 (or a higher age where required by applicable law), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate legal basis.

If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to help protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You are also responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and device.

If you use Diaspora Hub from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we may provide notice through the app, website, or other reasonable means.

Your continued use of Diaspora Hub after the updated Privacy Policy becomes effective means you accept the revised version.
