4. Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with:

• Service providers: vendors that help us run the site (hosting, database, email delivery). The primary provider is Google Firebase, which stores our database and authentication data.
• Legal and safety: when required to comply with applicable law, valid legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Mavacore, our users, or others.
• Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with appropriate confidentiality protections.

5. Cookies & Similar Technologies

We use a minimal set of cookies and local storage mechanisms to keep you signed in to the admin area and to remember UI preferences. We do not use third-party advertising cookies.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings; some site features (such as the admin sign-in) may then stop working.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide our services and comply with legal obligations. Testimonials and comments remain published until you request removal, after which they are deleted within 30 days.

Server logs and analytics data are retained for up to 12 months.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond within 30 days.

8. Security

We use industry-standard safeguards, including encryption in transit (HTTPS / TLS) and access controls on our database. No method of transmission or storage, however, is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects when the policy was last revised. Material changes will be communicated through the site or by email where appropriate.
