How We Share Your Information

With Other Users

OurBar is a social app. Certain information is visible to other users by design:

• Your display name and avatar are visible to users in your groups and friends list
• Your bar inventory is visible to group members when you share it for a session
• Your Discoveries tasting notes and scores are revealed to specific recipients you choose, only after they log their own score for the same spirit
• Your Flight scores and rankings are visible to group members after a bracket round concludes

You control what you share. Private inventory items and personal notes are never shared without your explicit action.

With Service Providers

We share information with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the App:

All service providers are contractually obligated to use your information only to provide services to us and in accordance with this policy.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.

Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored on secure servers operated by Supabase, Inc. with data centers in the United States. We implement industry-standard security measures including:

• Encrypted data transmission (TLS/HTTPS)
• Encrypted data at rest
• Row-level security policies limiting data access
• Authentication via Supabase Auth with secure session management

No method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

• Group and social data — retained until you leave a group or delete your account
• Usage logs — retained for up to 90 days for debugging and security purposes

When you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
