Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters deeply to us. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it — in plain, honest language.

Last updated: April 15, 2026GDPR & CCPA AwareWe never sell your data

Our Commitment to You

Haven is built on trust. We collect only what we need, protect it diligently, and never sell it. This policy governs all personal data processed through our platform in accordance with GDPR, CCPA, and applicable privacy regulations.

01

We collect information to provide and continually improve the Haven experience. The data we gather falls into three categories:

Account Data

  • Session duration
  • Feature interactions
Technical Data
  • IP address
  • Browser & version
  • Device & OS
  • Referring URLs

We use OAuth providers (Google and GitHub) for authentication. We do not store your OAuth passwords — only the tokens and profile data they provide.

Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to any third party.

We may share your data only in these limited circumstances:
