Privacy policy

Who looks after your data

Alex, who runs Deeper Cards, is responsible for your personal data. Contact: hello@deepercards.com.

What we collect

• Access code. Created for you when you pay, so you can log in on other devices with your email.
• Payment details. Stripe collects your email and card details to take payment and send your receipt. We can see your email and the payment in our Stripe account, but never your full card number.
• Settings on your device. Your chosen font, text size, theme, shuffle picks and login are saved in your browser's local storage. They stay on your device and aren't sent to us.
• Anonymous visit counts. To see how many people use the site, we count visits without cookies. Your IP address and browser type are combined with a random key that changes every day and turned into a one-way code, so we can't tell who you are, and the key is deleted after the day ends. We only see totals.
• Basic technical logs. Our host keeps short-lived logs (such as IP address and time of request) to keep the site secure and working.

We don't use advertising or tracking cookies, and we don't sell your data.

Why we use it

To provide what you paid for (unlocking the cards and helping you restore access), and to keep the site secure. Our legal basis is performing our contract with you, and our legitimate interest in running a safe website. We keep payment records for as long as UK tax law requires, usually 6 years.

Who we share it with

• Stripe, our payment provider, which stores your email and access code alongside your payment.
• Hostinger, which hosts the website.
• Google Fonts, which serves the fonts the site uses, so your browser contacts Google when pages load.

Some of these providers may process data outside the UK, using safeguards approved under UK law.

Your rights

You can ask for a copy of your data, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to how we use it. Email us and we will reply within one month. Deleting your data stops your access code from working, and we still have to keep payment records for tax.

If you're unhappy with how we've handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Children

Deeper Cards isn't aimed at children under 13. If you're under 18, please ask a parent or guardian before buying.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top.
