5. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we permanently remove all personal data within 30 days, except where required by law.

6. Your Rights

Under applicable data protection laws (GDPR, CCPA), you have the right to:

  • Access: Request a copy of your personal data
  • Rectification: Correct inaccurate personal data
  • Erasure: Request deletion of your personal data
  • Portability: Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
  • Objection: Object to processing based on legitimate interests

You can exercise most of these rights from inside the Privacy Centre when you're signed in to the web portal, or by emailing [email protected] from the mobile app.

7. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with:

  • Service providers: Trusted third parties that help us operate our service (hosting, email delivery, payment processing via Apple App Store and RevenueCat)

8. International Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries outside your own. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for international transfers, including Standard Contractual Clauses where required.

9. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data, including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security audits.

10. Cookies & Local Storage

We use essential cookies to maintain your session on the web portal. The mobile app stores some data locally (your order draft, your recent products) so the app works offline; that data is encrypted on-device and synced to the server when you reconnect.

11. Children

Clear Inventory is intended for business owners and their staff. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us at [email protected] and we will delete the account.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes via email or through the application.
