Privacy Policy

1. Overview

My Green Year ("we," "our," "us") is a subscription-based web app that helps you track sustainable habits and estimate your carbon impact. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains what we collect, why, and how we use it.

2. Information We Collect

• Account data: your name, username, email address, and password (stored as a secure hash).
• Profile data: your onboarding questionnaire answers, which we use to estimate your baseline footprint and recommend habits.
• Activity data: habits you add, completions you log, challenges you finish, achievements you earn, and your Carbon Bank balance.
• Preferences: theme choice, notification settings, and goals.
• Marketing attribution: UTM parameters from the link you used to reach My Green Year, so we understand which campaigns bring users in.
• Subscription data: your plan and billing status, processed by our payment provider (Stripe). We do not store your full card number.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To create and manage your account and provide the My Green Year service.
• To calculate your estimated carbon impact, streaks, and achievements.
• To send you the emails you've opted into (tips, challenges, product updates) — you can change this anytime in your profile.
• To analyze and improve our product, including conversion funnel analytics and A/B tests.
• To process subscription payments and manage billing.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with service providers who help us operate My Green Year:

• Stripe — payment processing and subscription management.
• Analytics providers — aggregated, de-identified usage data to help us understand product performance.
• Email providers — to deliver emails you've requested.

We may disclose data if required by law or to protect our rights and safety.

5. Data Retention & Deletion

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. You can delete your account at any time from your Profile settings, which permanently removes your habits, completions, Carbon Bank, streaks, achievements, and questionnaire data. Some aggregated, de-identified analytics data may be retained for product improvement.

6. Cookies & Local Storage

My Green Year uses local storage to remember your theme preference, visitor ID for A/B testing, and UTM attribution. We do not use third-party advertising cookies.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. You can exercise most of these rights directly in the app. For other requests, contact us through the app's support channels.

8. Security

We use industry-standard practices to protect your data, including encrypted transmission (HTTPS), hashed passwords, and role-based access controls. No method is 100% secure, but we work hard to safeguard your information.

9. Children's Privacy

My Green Year is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has provided us data, please contact us and we will delete it.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We'll notify you of significant changes through the app or by email. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision.
