Privacy Policy

This policy explains what Syfera collects, why, and the choices you have. We don't sell your personal information.

What we collect

• Account information: email, username, name and password (stored only as a one-way hash).
• Profile information you choose to add: photo, cover image, bio, headline, work details, location, website and interests.
• Content: posts, comments, reactions, Groups, Circles and messages you create.
• Usage and device information: sign-in times, IP address and browser type, used for security and abuse prevention.
• Payments (when available): processed by Stripe. Syfera receives transaction details but not your full card number.

How we use it

• To run Syfera: show your profile and content, deliver notifications and power recommendations based on your interests and activity.
• To keep people safe: detect spam and abuse, review reports and enforce our Guidelines.
• To communicate with you: account emails such as verification and password resets.

Photos and location data

When you upload an image we re-process it and remove embedded metadata such as GPS location.

Live audio, transcripts and AI

Circles are not recorded or transcribed unless the host turns that on, and everyone in the room is told before it starts. AI features (such as summaries) only process content you or the host chose to use them on.

Your choices

• Make your account private, control who can message you, and choose which notifications you receive.
• Block or mute anyone.
• Download a copy of your data or delete your account from Settings → Account & privacy.

Retention

When you delete your account we remove your profile and content. We keep limited records (such as payment and moderation records) when the law requires it or to prevent abuse.
