Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 8, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Sneaker Scout (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use Sneaker Scout, including our website and native mobile application (together, the “Service”).

1. Information you provide

When you create an account or use account features, we may collect:

  • Email address and password (for Supabase authentication)
  • Shopping preferences you choose, such as shoe sizes, favorite brands, budget limits, and minimum discount preferences
  • Saved deals, watchlist items, saved searches, and in-app alert settings
  • Notification preferences you configure, including delivery preferences and, where enabled, frequency, timezone, and quiet-hours settings

2. Information generated through use

When you use the Service, we may generate or store:

  • Records of deals you save, searches you save, and alerts you create
  • Push notification device tokens when you enable push alerts on a supported device
  • Records when you tap outbound retailer links, including deal identifiers and basic click metadata used for affiliate reporting and service analytics
  • Deal and price observations used to support Service behavior such as alert deduplication and deal freshness

3. Guest and on-device storage

You can use parts of the Service without creating an account. In that case, some preferences and saved items may be stored locally on your device:

  • On the web, guest preferences may be stored in your browser's local storage
  • In the native app, guest preferences may be stored in AsyncStorage on your device

Local guest data stays on your device unless you create an account and choose to migrate preferences to your profile.

4. Authentication and session storage

If you sign in, authentication is handled through Supabase. In the native app, session tokens may be stored using Expo SecureStore on your device. On the web, session cookies or comparable browser storage may be used to keep you signed in.

5. How we use information

We use the information described above to:

  • Provide, operate, and maintain the Service
  • Personalize deals, alerts, and recommendations based on your preferences
  • Deliver in-app and push notifications you request
  • Process outbound retailer links and measure affiliate referrals where applicable
  • Improve reliability, security, and product functionality
  • Respond to support requests

We do not sell your personal information. We also do not use third-party advertising SDKs in the consumer application.

6. Service providers

We use trusted service providers that process information on our behalf only as needed to operate the Service, including:

  • Supabase — authentication, database, and account infrastructure
  • Vercel — website hosting and delivery
  • Expo Push Notification service — delivery of mobile push notifications when enabled
  • Affiliate networks — where active retailer programs apply, to attribute qualifying outbound purchases

These providers are permitted to use information only to perform services for us, subject to their own privacy practices and our instructions.

7. Data retention

We retain account-related information while your account is active and as needed to provide the Service. If you delete your account, we delete associated consumer profile data, watchlist items, alerts, and saved searches from our systems, and we delete your authentication account. Some records may be retained in limited form where required for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or operational logs. For example, affiliate click records may be retained without your account identifier after deletion.

8. Account and data deletion

Registered users can delete their account inside the application. See our Account Deletion page for step-by-step instructions. You can also contact us at adrian@mapbookrecords.com if you need help.

9. Your choices

  • You can update preferences in your profile or preferences settings
  • You can disable push notifications in your device or in-app notification settings
  • You can clear guest data by removing local app data or browser storage, or by signing in and managing your account
  • You can delete your account as described above

10. Children

The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

11. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will revise the “Last Updated” date when we do. Continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
