Privacy policy · August 3, 2026
Your stack stays yours.
Ouncebound collects only what is needed to run accounts and collection features. We do not sell personal information.
Information you provide
When you create an account, we store your email address, username, and a salted one-way password hash. We never store your readable password. If you use collection features, we store favorites, discoveries, XP, stack quantities, optional purchase prices and dates, and notes you choose to enter.
Information created by the service
We store essential session tokens, account-security rate limits, timestamps, and short-lived password-reset records. Privacy-conscious first-party analytics store the page path, event type, timestamp, and referring hostname without an advertising identifier or collection details. Catalog searches also store the normalized search term and number of matching records so we can identify missing pieces; search terms are retained for up to 180 days and are not tied to an account. Operational infrastructure may process basic request information such as IP address, browser details, and error logs to deliver and protect the service. Ouncebound currently uses no advertising cookies.
How information is used
We use account data to sign you in, synchronize your private collection, calculate progress, prevent abuse, answer support requests, and improve reliability. We do not use stack value, purchase notes, or favorites to determine lending, insurance, employment, or other eligibility.
Service providers
Hosting and database providers process data to operate Ouncebound. A transactional email provider processes email addresses only when sending account messages such as password resets. The silver spot-price service receives a server request from Ouncebound; it does not receive your collection data.
Retention and control
Account and collection data remain until you delete the account. Sessions normally expire after 30 days and password-reset links after one hour. Signed-in users can download a JSON copy of their data or permanently delete the account from Profile. Backups and security logs may persist for a limited period before normal deletion cycles complete.
Children and changes
Ouncebound is not directed to children under 13. We may update this policy as analytics, advertising, or social features are introduced; material changes will be reflected here before those features launch.
