Privacy Policy
Effective date: January 31, 2026
This policy explains how Hardcovers collects, uses, and shares information when you use our app and website.
Information we collect
We collect information you provide, such as your email address, name, and library details (books, tags, notes, and reading status).
We also collect information needed to operate the service, including authentication data and basic technical data like device type, browser, and app version.
How we use data
We use your information to provide the service, sync your libraries across devices, respond to support requests, and improve reliability.
Sharing and processors
We use Convex to store account, session, and library data, and Resend to deliver email. These providers process data on our behalf. Authentication runs through Better Auth using our Convex storage.
We do not sell your personal information.
Data retention
We retain your data while your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your data within a reasonable period, unless we are required to keep it for legal or security purposes.
Your choices
You can update your profile, manage your libraries, or request account deletion by contacting support.
