Your information.
Handled with care.

This policy explains how Suited for It handles information when you browse the directory, create an account, submit content, subscribe, or contact us. You can reach the operator through our contact form.

Information you provide

• Accounts: your name, email, password hash, account recovery hash, and optional profile details. Passwords and recovery codes are hashed rather than stored in readable form.
• Public contributions: product submissions, maker names, comments, collections, support votes, and information you choose to publish. Your email address is not displayed as part of your public profile.
• Saved products: products linked to your account so you can find them again.
• Newsletter: the email you submit, subscription status, consent action and timestamps, and an unsubscribe token hash.
• Messages: contact details, sponsorship enquiries, listing reports, and ownership evidence you send us.

Technical information and cookies

We use a first-party session cookie to keep you signed in. It is HttpOnly and uses Secure transport in production. The server also processes technical request information needed to operate the site, prevent abuse, and diagnose errors. Hosting and reverse-proxy logs may include IP addresses, request paths, times, and browser information.

Live sponsor links and visible sponsor cards record aggregate campaign clicks and impressions. Daily deduplication uses a keyed, transient request signature; raw IP addresses are not stored in campaign records. This does not follow you around other websites. No third-party advertising or analytics scripts are included in the initial site.

Why we use information

To provide your account, publish and moderate directory content, manage saves and community interactions, answer requests, protect the service, handle sponsorships, and send product editions you asked to receive. Depending on the processing and applicable law, our basis is providing the requested service, your consent, or our legitimate interest in operating a secure and useful directory.

Public listings and external products

We also create sourced listings from public product information and include source links. Listing a product does not mean its maker has an account. Logos and product names remain the property of their respective owners. Makers can request corrections, ownership, or removal.

Links take you to external websites governed by their own terms and privacy practices. Visiting those sites may reveal your IP address and browser information to them.

Who can access information

Public content is accessible to visitors. Account emails, private saves, enquiries, and moderation records are accessible only to authorized administrators and infrastructure providers where necessary to operate the service. We do not sell account email lists to advertisers. Sponsors receive campaign-level information, such as recorded click totals, rather than your account password or private saved products.

Retention

We retain account and content data while needed to provide the service, subscriptions until you unsubscribe or they are removed, and enquiries or moderation records while needed to handle the matter and prevent abuse. Backups may retain earlier copies for a limited recovery period. Legal obligations may require some records to be kept longer.

Your choices

You can update profile details and manage owned submissions from your account. Account settings include a deletion option. Newsletter editions should include an unsubscribe link; you may also contact us to stop emails. You can request access, correction, deletion, or other rights available under applicable law through the contact form. We may need to verify your identity before acting.

You can block cookies in your browser, although signing in may stop working. You may complain to your relevant data-protection authority where applicable.

Security and children

We use access controls, hashed credentials, input validation, and encrypted transport in production. No online service can guarantee absolute security. Don’t put passwords, payment card details, or confidential customer data in public submissions or messages.

The service is intended for adults and is not directed at children under 16. Contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information.

Changes

We may update this policy as the service changes. The date at the top identifies the current version. Material changes to how your information is used will be communicated where appropriate.
