4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. After account deletion, we retain certain data for up to 90 days for fraud prevention and legal compliance (e.g., financial transaction records as required by law).

6. Location Data

Corneroom uses location data to show nearby spaces, enable map-based search, and verify host locations. Location access is requested via your device's permission system. You can revoke location permissions at any time in your device settings. The app functions with limited features without location access.

7. Children's Privacy

Corneroom is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that a child under 16 has provided personal information, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us through our Support page.

8. International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We use secure cloud infrastructure and take appropriate safeguards to ensure your data is protected in accordance with this policy and applicable data protection laws, including GDPR for users in the European Economic Area.

9. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (TLS), encryption at rest, secure authentication, and regular security audits. Payment data is handled by our PCI DSS Level 1 certified payment processor. However, no method of electronic transmission is 100% secure.

Our app integrates with the following categories of third-party services:

• Payment processor — payment processing
• Authentication, analytics, and push-notification providers — sign-in, usage analytics, and notifications
• Mapping provider — location services and map display
• Social sign-in providers — social authentication

Each service has its own privacy policy governing data it collects.
