Legal / Privacy

Privacy,
without the fog.

This policy explains what TheMartian.app products may collect, why we use it, who may process it, and how you can ask us to delete it.

Last updated 1 September 2026

01

Scope

This policy applies to TheMartian.app websites, mobile apps, web apps, tools, and services that link to this page. A product may publish an additional privacy notice when it handles information in a way that needs a more specific explanation. That product-specific notice applies alongside this policy and controls if the two differ.

02

Information we collect

Information you provide

Depending on the product, this can include account details, contact information, support messages, waitlist submissions, profile information, content you create, and settings you choose.

Product and device information

We may receive technical and usage information such as IP address, device and browser type, operating system, timestamps, diagnostics, crash data, and interactions with a product. We use cookies or similar storage only where needed for product operation, security, preferences, measurement, or consented analytics.

Connected services

If you connect a third-party account or service, including Meta or WhatsApp, we may receive the identifiers, permissions, account details, and content required for the feature you chose. The authorization screen describes the access being requested.

Payments

Purchases may be processed by an app store or payment provider. We may receive payment status, product, country, and transaction identifiers, but we do not receive full card details from those providers.

03

How we use information

We use information to:

  • provide, maintain, and personalize the product you use;
  • authenticate accounts and keep products secure;
  • process requests, purchases, and connected-service actions;
  • respond to support and privacy requests;
  • diagnose failures and improve reliability and usability;
  • prevent fraud, abuse, and violations of our terms; and
  • meet legal, accounting, and regulatory obligations.

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, we rely on performance of a contract, legitimate interests, consent, or compliance with law, depending on the purpose and the product.

04

How information is shared

We may share information with:

  • service providers that host, secure, analyze, support, or process product data for us under contractual restrictions;
  • connected platforms, app stores, payment providers, and APIs when needed to perform an action you requested;
  • professional advisers, regulators, courts, or authorities where required by law or needed to protect rights, safety, and security; and
  • a successor organization if a product or business is reorganized, sold, or transferred, subject to applicable privacy law.

We do not permit service providers to use personal information for their own unrelated purposes. An individual product may identify its providers in a more specific notice.

05

Retention and security

We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purpose described, including operation of the product, dispute resolution, security, and legal obligations. Product-specific notices may state shorter or fixed retention periods.

We use technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data. No online service can guarantee absolute security, so we also limit access and the amount of information retained where practical.

Our providers may process information in countries other than yours. Where required, we use recognized safeguards for international transfers.

06

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export, delete, restrict, or object to processing of personal information, and to withdraw consent. You may also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.

You can revoke a connected service through that service's settings. Revoking access stops future access but may not delete information already received, so use the deletion process below when you want stored information removed.

07

Request data deletion

Email [email protected] with the subject Data deletion request. Include the product name and the email, phone number, username, or account identifier you used with it. Do not include a password, access token, payment-card number, or other secret.

We may ask for information needed to verify that the account belongs to you. Once verified, we will delete or anonymize information that we are not required to retain and confirm when the request is complete. If we must retain part of the information for legal, fraud-prevention, or security reasons, we will explain that restriction.

08

Children

Our general-audience products are not directed to children under 13. A product intended for a younger audience will provide a specific notice and obtain any consent required by local law. Contact us if you believe a child provided information without the required permission.

09

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as products, providers, or laws change. We will update the date at the top and provide additional notice when a material change requires it.
