Please read this privacy policy carefully. By accessing or using our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all the terms of this privacy policy.

Our Local-First Approach

CiviWave is built on a principle of local-first data ownership. All information is designed to reside locally on your device unless you explicitly consent to share specific information with us.

We do not automatically collect any information. We do not use hidden trackers, analytics scripts, or background data collection of any kind.

Information You Choose to Share

We only collect information when:

• We make a clear and specific request for that information
• We explain the exact purpose and intent for which the information will be used
• You provide informed consent demonstrating your understanding and comprehension of our request

This may include your name, email address, organization name, or other information you voluntarily provide through forms such as contact requests or newsletter subscriptions.

We are committed to full transparency about how your information is used. When you consent to share information with us, we maintain a clear chain of custody and will only use that information for the specific purposes outlined in the consent request.

Your data will never be used for purposes beyond what was explicitly stated and agreed upon at the time of collection.

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain our services
• Improve, personalize, and expand our services
• Communicate with you about updates, support, and promotional offers
• Process transactions and send related information
• Detect and prevent fraud or other harmful activities
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:

• Service Providers: With third-party vendors who assist us in operating our services
• Legal Requirements: When required by law or to respond to legal process
• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
• With Your Consent: When you have given us permission to share your information

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

• Access and receive a copy of your personal data
