Privacy policy

We collect as little as we need, we never sell your data, and we tell you plainly what happens to it.

Last updated 21 October 2026. This is a plain-English draft written while Mikey's Market is in its early stage. It will be reviewed and updated before card payments open.

What we collect

  • Account details: your email address and password (stored securely, never readable by us), or the basic profile details shared when you sign in with Google or Lovable.
  • Profile details you choose to add: such as your display name and avatar.
  • Messages you send us through the contact form: your name, email address and message.
  • Basic technical information needed to keep the site running and secure, such as error reports.

We don't take payments yet, so we don't collect any payment details.

How we use it

  • To create and run your account, and to keep it secure.
  • To send essential emails, such as confirming your address or resetting your password.
  • To reply to messages you send us.
  • To fix problems and improve Mikey's Market.

We don't send marketing emails without your permission, and we never sell your personal information.

Who we share it with

We use trusted service providers to host the site, store data and send account emails. They only process your information on our behalf. If you sign in with Google or Lovable, that provider shares your basic profile with us under their own privacy policy.

We'll only share information with anyone else if the law requires it.

Cookies and storage

We use only essential browser storage to keep you signed in. We don't use advertising or tracking cookies.

How long we keep it

We keep your account information for as long as your account is open. Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to deal with your request. Ask us to close your account and we'll delete your personal information, except anything we're legally required to keep.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to see the personal information we hold about you, correct it, delete it, or object to how we use it. You can update your profile at any time from your account page, and contact us for anything else.

Changes and contact

We'll update this policy as Mikey's Market grows — in particular before payments and seller shops open — and we'll let members know about important changes. For any privacy question or request, please get in touch.
