If you sign in with Google or Apple, we receive your email address, name, and profile picture from that provider. We use them solely to create and identify your Votifo account — we do not use Google or Apple user data for advertising, we do not sell or transfer it, and we do not request access to any other data held by those providers (contacts, calendar, files, or anything else).

3. How We Use Your Data
We use your data to:
•
Provide and operate the Votifo service (lawful basis: contract performance)
•
Show poll creators anonymised demographic breakdowns of their voters — e.g. "60% of voters are Male, aged 25–34" (lawful basis: legitimate interest of poll creators)
•
Send push notifications you have opted into (lawful basis: consent)
•
Improve and secure the service (lawful basis: legitimate interest)
•
Comply with legal obligations (lawful basis: legal obligation)
Profile demographic fields (gender, age, profession, etc.) are entirely optional. They are used solely to power the analytics feature available to poll creators. You can skip or leave any field blank.
4. Data Sharing
We share your data only with the following trusted sub-processors:
•
Supabase (database, authentication) — servers located in the EU (Ireland, eu-west-1). Processes account data, profile data, and content.
•
Cloudflare R2 (media storage) — stores images and videos you upload to polls.
•
Google Firebase (push notifications) — receives your push notification token to deliver notifications.
•
Google and Apple (optional sign-in) — if you choose to sign in with them, they confirm your identity to us and receive the fact that you signed in to Votifo. We do not send them any other data.
•
Vercel (web hosting) — hosts the web version of Votifo.
We do not sell your personal data to any third party. We do not use your data for advertising.
5. Data Retention
•
Account and profile data is retained for as long as your account is active or until you request deletion.
•
Poll content (polls, options, votes, comments) is retained until you delete it or your account is deleted.
•
Push notification tokens are deleted when you revoke notification permissions or delete your account.
•
Aggregated, anonymised analytics data (not linked to individual users) may be retained indefinitely.
6. Your Rights (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right to rectification — you can correct inaccurate data via your profile settings at any time.
