Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 24, 2026

Our Privacy Commitment

Zonii is currently in development. This privacy policy outlines how we plan to handle your data once the platform launches. As we build Zonii, privacy guides every technical decision we make.

What Makes Zonii Different

Location Privacy

Unlike traditional social platforms, Zonii is designed to:

• Show proximity, not precision: You'll see content from "nearby" without revealing exact GPS coordinates
• Zone-based discovery: Content is organized by general areas, not pinpoint locations
• No location tracking: We don't store your movement history or create location profiles
• User control: You decide how much location information to share

Data Minimization

We collect only what's necessary to make Zonii work:

• Email address (for account creation and notifications)
• Approximate location (to show you relevant local content)
• Public posts and interactions you choose to share
• Basic device information (to optimize app performance)

Early Access Waitlist

When you join our early access waitlist, we collect:

• Your email address
• Your name (optional)
• Timestamp of signup

This information is used solely to:

• Send you updates about Zonii's development
• Invite you to test the platform before public launch
• Communicate important announcements

You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us at [email protected].

Data Storage & Security

Currently, early access signups are stored securely with:

• Encrypted storage
• Limited access (only core team members)
• Regular security audits
• No sharing with third parties

What We Won't Do

• ❌ Sell your data to advertisers or third parties
• ❌ Track your location when you're not using the app
• ❌ Create shadow profiles or collect data from non-users
• ❌ Use your content to train AI without explicit permission
• ❌ Share your precise location with other users without consent

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access: Request a copy of any data we have about you
• Deletion: Ask us to delete your account and data
• Correction: Update or correct your information
• Portability: Export your data in a standard format
• Opt-out: Decline certain data collection or processing

Third-Party Services

Zonii is still in development. When we launch, we may use trusted third-party services for:

• Cloud infrastructure (secure hosting)
• Analytics (privacy-respecting, anonymized metrics)
• Email delivery (for account notifications)

We will only work with providers who meet our privacy standards and will update this policy with specific details before launch.

Children's Privacy

Zonii is not intended for users under 13 years old. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If we discover that we've inadvertently collected data from a child, we will delete it immediately.

Changes to This Policy

As Zonii evolves from development to launch, this privacy policy will be updated to reflect new features and practices. We will notify waitlist members of any significant changes via email.
