Privacy Policy

Borrow Buddy, Inc. (“Borrow Buddy,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information about you when you visit our website or join our waitlist. By using our site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information we collect

When you join our waitlist or otherwise contact us, we may collect:

• Information you give us: your email address, first name, and city when you submit the waitlist form.
• Automatically collected data: basic usage data such as your IP address, browser type, device, pages visited, and approximate location (city-level).
• Cookies & similar technologies: small data files used to remember preferences and measure site performance.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

• Notify you when Borrow Buddy launches in your city.
• Send you product updates, early-access invitations, and launch news.
• Operate, maintain, and improve our website and services.
• Detect, prevent, and respond to fraud or security issues.
• Comply with legal obligations.

3. How we share your information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with:

• Service providers who help us run our website, email delivery, hosting, and analytics, under confidentiality obligations.
• Legal authorities when required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Borrow Buddy and our users.
• Business transfers in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets — in which case we will notify you.

4. Your choices and rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time via the link in any email we send. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@borrowbuddy.app.

5. Data retention

We retain waitlist information until you ask us to delete it or until it is no longer needed to provide our services and comply with our legal obligations.

6. Data security

We use commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children’s privacy

Borrow Buddy is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in some jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us and we will delete it.

8. International users

If you are accessing our website from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Material changes will be communicated by email or via a notice on our site.
