Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly to us, such as when you create an account, use our services, or contact us for support.
Personal Information
- Email address (for account creation and communication)
- Name (if provided during registration)
- Payment information (processed securely through Lemon Squeezy)
- URLs you submit for link card generation
- Saved card designs and customizations (if you're a Pro member)
Usage Information (Only with Your Consent)
We only collect this information if you accept optional cookies. It helps us understand what's working and what needs improvement—nothing creepy, we promise! Here's what we might see:
- Pages visited and features used — This tells us which features are popular so we know what to improve. We see things like "500 people used the card generator today" but never "John Smith visited at 3pm."
- Time spent on platform — Helps us know if pages load too slowly or if something's confusing. If everyone leaves after 5 seconds, we know we need to fix something!
- Device and browser info — Just technical stuff like "Chrome on Windows" or "Safari on iPhone" so we can make sure HoverCard works smoothly for everyone. We can't identify you from this.
- General location — Only city/country level (like "someone from New York" or "user from UK"), never your exact address. This helps us understand our global audience and server performance.
💚 Remember: All of this is optional. Decline cookies and we'll only use what's absolutely necessary to keep you signed in. Your choice, always.
