Introduction

Our commitment to your privacy

InciSister ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our web application and services.

We believe that your privacy is a fundamental right, and we've designed InciSister to respect and protect your personal information. This policy applies to all information collected through our website and services.

Information We Collect

What data we gather and why

Information You Provide

We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, including:

  • Ingredient lists you submit for analysis
  • Your skin type, concerns, and profile preferences (sensitive skin, pregnancy status, etc.)
  • Any feedback or communications you send to us

Automatically Collected Information

When you use InciSister, we may automatically collect certain information:

  • Device information (browser type, operating system)
  • Usage data (pages visited, features used, time spent)
  • IP address (for security and analytics purposes)

How We Use Your Information

How we process and utilize your data

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide our services: Analyze ingredient lists and provide personalized safety ratings based on your profile
  • Improve our services: Understand how users interact with InciSister to enhance functionality and user experience
  • Ensure security: Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security issues
  • Communicate with you: Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
  • Comply with legal obligations: Meet our legal and regulatory requirements

Data Storage and Retention

How long we keep your information

We do not store your ingredient searches or personal analysis data. All ingredient analysis is performed instantly and anonymously. We do not create user accounts or require registration, which means we don't collect or store personal information like names, email addresses, or profiles.

Any automatically collected technical information (such as usage analytics) is retained only for as long as necessary to provide our services and improve our platform, typically for a period not exceeding 24 months.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We don't sell your data

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

  • Service Providers: We may share information with trusted service providers who assist us in operating our platform (such as hosting services), subject to strict confidentiality agreements
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or in response to valid legal requests
  • Protection of Rights: We may share information to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users

Data Security

How we protect your information

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

  • Encryption of data in transit using SSL/TLS protocols
  • Regular security assessments and updates
  • Limited access to information on a need-to-know basis
  • Secure hosting infrastructure

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Privacy Rights

Your control over your information

Since we don't collect personal information or require accounts, there's no personal data to access, modify, or delete. However, you have the right to:

  • Use our service anonymously: You can use InciSister without providing any personal information
  • Control your data: Since we don't store your searches, your data remains private by default
  • Opt out of analytics: You can disable cookies or use browser settings to limit tracking
  • Contact us: If you have questions about your privacy, you can contact us at any time

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

How we use cookies

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to:

  • Understand how you use our website (analytics)
  • Remember your preferences (such as language settings)
  • Improve website functionality and performance

You can control cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling cookies may affect some functionality of our website.

Children's Privacy

Protection for young users

InciSister is designed to be safe for users of all ages. Since we don't collect personal information or require registration, our service is inherently safe for children. However, we recommend that children under 13 use our service with parental supervision.
