Privacy

What we collect

When you create an Øen account, we store your email address, anything you put on your card (name, title, contact details, photos, the card you design), and the events your card generates — how many times it was viewed, saved, or exchanged. We do not require a phone number, a real name, or a profile photo. You decide what goes on the card.

What we don't do

We never sell, rent, or share your data. We never expose a specific scanner's identity to a card owner — when someone views your card, you see an aggregate count, never a name or email. If they choose to exchange contact info with you, that is their affirmative action, and we pass it along; until then their visit is anonymous to you. This is the line we draw and never cross.

Third parties we use

We use industry-standard services for the parts of Øen that need to talk to the outside world: Postmark for transactional email (magic-link sign-in), Resend for marketing email (which you can opt out of with one click in any message), Cloudflare for delivery and protection, and DigitalOcean for hosting. Each of these processors handles your data under their own contracts with us, and we've chosen them for their privacy posture, not just their reliability. When we add optional integrations (Canva, Figma, Adobe, Google, Slack, etc.), those run only after you connect them yourself, and only with the scopes you authorize.

Your controls

You can pause your account, delete it, change your email address, export your data, and opt out of any class of email from your account settings. Deletion stamps your record for removal after a 30-day recovery window; after that the tombstoned row is purged. We keep audit logs of sign-in activity (IP and user-agent, for your devices list) and security events; those follow the standard retention windows in the full policy below.

Contact for data requests

For privacy questions, data exports, deletion outside the account flow, or any GDPR / CCPA request: [email protected]. We respond within 14 days as a matter of policy, faster in practice.

This page reflects how Øen handles data today. The complete legal policy — including specifics on retention windows, international data transfers, cookie behavior, and the full list of sub-processors — is in final attorney review and replaces this page before the public signup gate opens.
