4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only in these limited cases:

  • WWF donations: If you choose to donate to WWF through the app, you are redirected to WWF's own donation page. We do not collect or store any payment information.
  • Service providers: We use Railway for hosting and Expo/EAS for app distribution. These providers may process data as needed to operate the Service.
  • Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of our users.

5. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including:

  • Passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms
  • Authentication tokens (JWT) are used for secure sessions
  • HTTPS encryption for all data in transit
  • Rate limiting and brute-force protection on login and password reset

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

6. Data Retention

We retain your account data and study history for as long as your account is active. If you wish to delete your account and all associated data, please contact us at hello@endura.eco.

7. Children's Privacy

Endura is designed for students of all ages. We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information from children under 13 beyond what is described in this policy (email, username, study data). If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with information you did not consent to, please contact us and we will take steps to remove it.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your account and data
  • Opt out of push notifications at any time via app settings

9. Third-Party Links

The app contains links to WWF's donation page and may link to external resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
