This Privacy Policy describes how Befona (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use our service. Befona is a space to hold the moments that quietly shape your child’s story. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling personal information with care.
1. Information we collect
Depending on how you use Befona, we may collect:
- Account information: such as name, email address, and credentials you provide when you create or manage an account.
- Content you choose to save: such as text, notes, or other material you add to preserve memories. This may include information about your family that you voluntarily enter.
- Usage and device data: such as approximate device type, browser or app version, and basic logs needed to operate, secure, and improve the service (e.g. error reports, timestamps).
2. How we use your information
We use the information above to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve Befona;
- Authenticate your account and keep your content associated with you;
- Communicate with you about the service (e.g. security notices, support, or important updates);
- Protect the security and integrity of our systems and users;
- Comply with legal obligations where applicable.
We do not sell your personal information.
3. Children and family information
Befona is designed for parents and caregivers. If you include information about a child in your account, you are responsible for ensuring you have the right to provide that information. We treat such content as part of your account and apply this Policy accordingly. If you believe we have collected information from a child in a way that violates applicable law, please contact us using the details below.
4. Sharing of information
We may share information only in limited circumstances, such as:
- With service providers who help us host, analyze, or secure the service, under contracts that require them to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify;
- When required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of users or others;
- In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with notice as required by law.
5. Storage and security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You may request deletion of your account or certain data as described below.
7. Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at the email below. We will respond in line with applicable law.
8. International transfers
If you access Befona from outside the country where our servers or providers are located, your information may be processed in those countries. We take steps designed to ensure appropriate safeguards where required.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page and revise the “Last updated” date. For material changes, we may provide additional notice (e.g. by email or in-app).
