1. Introduction

Voxzly respects your privacy. This Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect data. By using Voxzly, you consent.

Applies to US users; EU/CA may have extra rights (see below). Updates posted here.

2. Data We Collect

Account/Profile: Username, email/phone, bio, photo, color, location (city/state for posting).

Content: Audio posts, comments, auto-generated transcripts (censored for sensitive words), likes, follows, reports.

Auction & Marketplace Data: Auction listings, bids, buy-it-now purchases, seller/buyer information, and payout details.

Bank & Payment Information: When you add a bank account for receiving payouts (as a seller), we collect routing number, account number, and bank ownership details through Stripe. We do not store full bank account numbers ourselves — this is securely handled and tokenized by Stripe via Financial Connections or micro-deposits.

Usage: IP/device info, interactions (views, plays, bids), location (geo from posts for feeds).

Payments: Stripe data (card info and bank account info not stored by us) for purchases and seller payouts.

Other: Cookies (for sessions/ads), 2FA logs, VPN detection.

No collection from under-13s.

3. How We Use Data

Provide Service: Host posts, generate feeds, censor transcripts, send notifications, process bids, manage auctions, and facilitate seller payouts.

Bank Verification & Payouts: Verify ownership of bank accounts using Stripe’s instant verification (Financial Connections) or micro-deposits so sellers can receive proceeds from sold items quickly and securely.

Improve: Analyze trends (e.g., popular categories), train moderation AI on anonymized transcripts.

Personalize: Suggest follows/categories based on rants/likes; location for local feeds.

Security: Detect fraud/VPNs, enforce bans, and prevent fraudulent payouts.

Legal: Comply with laws, process payments.

Audio: Stored securely; transcripts used for search/personalization (not sold).

4. Sharing Your Data

Public: Posts/comments and auction listings visible per your settings.

Users: Interactions (likes, replies, bids) shared in feeds.

Third Parties: Stripe (for payments, bank verification, and payouts), cloud providers (storage), analytics (anonymized). We do not sell personal data.

Legal: If required (e.g., subpoenas), or for safety (abuse reports).

No sharing with advertisers beyond aggregated stats.

5. Cookies & Tracking

Essential: Sessions, security.

Analytics: Usage (Google Analytics optional—opt-out via settings).

6. Data Security
