4. How we use AI
When you use AI enhance, your post text is sent to the Lovable AI Gateway, which routes the request to a third-party AI provider (currently Google or OpenAI models). We do not use your prompts or content to train models. Providers may briefly process the request to generate a response. Don’t submit content you’re not comfortable sending to an AI provider.
5. Sharing with processors
We share personal data only with processors that help us run SherpaPost, under data processing agreements:
• Supabase (database, authentication, file storage) — EU region where possible.
• Cloudflare (hosting, CDN, edge runtime).
• Stripe (payments and billing).
• Lovable AI Gateway and underlying providers (Google, OpenAI) for AI enhance.
We do not sell your personal data.

6. International transfers
Some processors are based outside the EU/EEA. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and provider-specific Data Processing Addenda.
7. How long we keep data
• Account and profile data: kept while your account is active.
• Drafts and uploaded media: kept until you delete them or close your account.
• Billing records: kept for the period required by tax law (typically up to 10 years in Bulgaria).
• Logs: kept for a short retention window for security and debugging (typically up to 90 days).
When you delete your account, we delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where law requires us to retain it.

8. Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, port, and object to processing of your personal data, and to withdraw any consent you have given. You can exercise most of these rights from your account, or by contacting privacy@sherpapost.app. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Bulgarian Commission for Personal Data Protection (CPDP) or the supervisory authority in your EU country.
9. Security
We use industry-standard measures including TLS encryption in transit, encryption at rest, role-based access controls, and database-level row-level security to protect your data. No system is perfectly secure; please use a strong, unique password.
10. Children
SherpaPost is not directed at children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
11. Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and adjust the “last updated” date. Material changes will be communicated in-app or by email where appropriate.
