Privacy Policy

Introduction. SocialLite ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application ("App"). Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Information We Collect.

Information You Provide. Account Authentication: You may sign in using Sign in with Apple or Google Sign-In to create and authenticate your account credentials. If you choose not to use these services, you may opt out and instead register using your phone number and email address to create your username and password. Your phone number serves as your unique account identifier. We use this information solely to authenticate your account, provide our services, and send important account-related notifications. We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise distribute your authentication information to any third party. Payment Information: Payment processing is handled entirely by Apple through In-App Purchases. We do not collect, store, or have access to your credit card numbers, bank account details, or other financial information. Apple's privacy policy governs their collection and use of your payment data. Parent Plan Information: If you use our Parent plan, we collect information necessary to link parent and child accounts, including kid codes generated by parents. Parents can configure content blocking settings and downtime schedules for linked child accounts. Usage data for child accounts may be visible to the linked parent account.

Information Collected Automatically. Device Information: Device type and model, operating system version, and unique device identifiers. Usage Data: Which social platforms you access through the App, features you use within the App, content blocking settings and subscription tier, and app performance data and crash reports. Cookies and Session Data: The App stores cookies from third-party social media platforms to maintain your login sessions. These cookies are stored locally on your device. We do not access or transmit the contents of these cookies to our servers.

Information We Do NOT Collect. We do NOT collect or access your social media passwords. We do NOT read your private messages or direct messages. We do NOT access your social media contacts or followers. We do NOT collect your location data. We do NOT collect your browsing history outside of the App.

How We Use Your Information. We use the information we collect to: provide and maintain the App; manage subscriptions; enable parental controls; send notifications; improve the App; provide customer support; and comply with legal obligations.

Data Sharing and Disclosure. We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We may share your information only in the following limited situations. Service Providers: Apple processes payments and subscription management through In-App Purchases. Analytics providers help us understand App usage (anonymized data only). Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities. Business Transfers: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the same privacy protections.

Data Retention. Account data (phone number and email address) is retained while your account is active and deleted within 30 days of an account deletion request. Payment records are retained as required by tax and financial regulations (typically 7 years). Usage data is retained for up to 24 months for analytics purposes, then anonymized or deleted. Parent plan data (parent-child account links and configuration data) is retained while the Parent subscription is active and deleted within 30 days of subscription cancellation or account deletion. Cookies are stored locally on your device until you clear them or uninstall the App.

Data Security. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information, including encryption in transit, secure storage practices, limited access, and regular security assessments. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

Your Rights and Choices. You may request access, correction, portability, or deletion of your data where applicable. To delete your account, open the SocialLite app, tap the Profile icon on the far right of the bottom tab bar, tap Account, then tap Delete Account at the bottom. For help deleting your account, contact support.

Children's Privacy. Children under 13 may only use the App through a managed account linked to a parent or guardian via our Parent plan.

Third-Party Services. The App enables access to third-party social media platforms. These platforms have their own privacy policies.

California Privacy Rights (CCPA). If you are a California resident, you have additional rights including the right to know, the right to delete, the right to non-discrimination, and the right to opt out. We do not sell personal information.
