Privacy Policy
This explains what information MovieAppetite collects, how it is used, and the controls you have over your data.
What we collect
We collect the information you provide directly, such as your username, email address, password hash, profile details, reviews, menus, table comments, follows, and other activity you create inside the service.
How we use it
We use account and activity data to operate the platform, personalize your experience, show your public or follower-visible content, send notifications you request, protect the community, and improve the service over time.
Profile visibility and sharing
Some profile details and content can be public, follower-only, or private depending on your settings and the feature. Public content may be visible to other users and visitors. You can manage certain privacy controls from your account settings.
Moderation and safety
We may review reports, account activity, and posted content to investigate abuse, enforce our rules, and keep the service safe. This can include logging moderation actions and preserving records related to trust and safety incidents.
Third-party services and data
Movie metadata and imagery may be sourced from third-party providers such as TMDb. Their services are governed by their own terms and privacy practices. MovieAppetite may also rely on standard infrastructure providers for hosting, email delivery, analytics, and security.
Cookies and technical data
We may use sessions, cookies, and standard server logs to keep you signed in, protect accounts, remember preferences, measure reliability, and understand how the service is being used.
Data retention
We keep account and content data for as long as it is needed to operate the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Some records may remain in backups or moderation logs for a reasonable period.
Your choices
You can update parts of your profile, notification preferences, and visibility settings from your account. If you need help with account access, deletion, or privacy questions, use your site contact or support channel.
Changes
This policy may be updated as the product evolves. If important privacy changes are made, MovieAppetite may update this page and, when appropriate, provide notice inside the product.
