Privacy Policy
Effective 2026-04-04-c
This Privacy Policy describes how Hover ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use the Hover macOS application and website at hov3r.app (the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to the collection and use of information as described here.
1. Information We Collect
Account information. When you create an account we collect your email address and a hashed password. We never store your password in plain text.
Subscription and billing. Payment is processed by Stripe. We store a record of your subscription status and plan. We do not store full card numbers or sensitive financial data — those remain with Stripe. Refund requests are handled directly by us via email at support@hov3r.app and are not processed through Stripe's dispute or refund system.
Usage data. We may collect limited, anonymised information about how you interact with the Service (e.g. feature usage, crash reports). This data does not identify you personally.
Device and network information. When you sign up, our servers may log your IP address for abuse prevention and rate limiting. We do not build profiles from IP addresses.
Communications. If you contact us by email we retain the content of that correspondence to assist you.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To create and manage your account and subscription.
- To send transactional emails (account confirmation, password resets, billing receipts).
- To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or violations of our Terms of Service.
- To respond to support requests.
- To improve the reliability and performance of the Service.
- To comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your data to serve third-party advertising.
3. Sharing Your Information
We share your information only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers — companies that help us operate the Service (e.g. Supabase for database and authentication, Resend for transactional email, Stripe for payments). These providers act as data processors on our behalf and are contractually bound to protect your data.
- Legal compliance — if required by law, court order, or a valid governmental request.
- Business transfer — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may transfer to the successor entity. We will notify you in advance.
- With your consent — any other sharing we will ask for your explicit permission first.
4. Data Retention
We retain your account data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service.
Account deletion. You can delete your account from your account settings page. Any active subscription or free trial must be cancelled before a deletion request can be submitted. After confirming with your password, your account enters a 24-hour grace period during which you can cancel the request. Once the grace period expires, we permanently delete your account credentials, device activation records, and associated billing data. Your Stripe subscription (if any) is cancelled at the same time.
We retain anonymised audit logs (action type, timestamp, IP address) for up to 90 days after deletion for fraud prevention and legal compliance. These logs do not contain your email address or other directly identifying information after your account is removed. We may also retain data we are legally required to keep beyond that period.
5. Cookies and Tracking
6. Security
7. Children's Privacy
8. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction — ask us to fix inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Deletion — request that we delete your personal data.
- Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Objection — object to certain types of processing (e.g. direct marketing).
- Withdraw consent — where processing is based on consent, withdraw it at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@hov3r.app. We will respond within 30 days.
