3 Information Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share information only in the following circumstances:

• With other users: Profile information you make public (username, display name, bio, photo, city) is visible to other limegrass users
• Service providers: Trusted third-party services that help us operate the platform (e.g. email delivery via SMTP), who are contractually obligated to protect your data
• Legal requirements: If required by law, court order, or governmental authority
• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred with appropriate notice

4 Authentication & Security

limegrass uses passwordless authentication. We send a one-time verification code to your email address each time you sign in. No passwords are stored on our servers.

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

Verification codes expire after 10 minutes and can only be used once.

• Access: Request a copy of the information we hold about you
• Correction: Update or correct your profile information at any time via your profile settings
• Deletion: Request deletion of your account and associated data
• Portability: Request an export of your data in a machine-readable format
• Opt-out: You may choose not to provide optional profile information such as gender, birth date, and interests

6 Data Retention

We retain your account information for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion of your account, we will delete your personal information within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention.

Verification codes and session tokens are deleted automatically after expiry or use.

7 Cookies

We use essential session cookies to keep you signed in to limegrass. These cookies are strictly necessary for the platform to function and do not track you across other websites.

We do not use advertising cookies, analytics cookies from third parties, or any tracking technologies beyond what is required to operate your session.

limegrass is intended for users who are 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If we become aware that a user is under 18, we will terminate their account and delete their data promptly.

By creating an account, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old.

9 Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of limegrass after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
