ShellQuest is built to need as little of your data as possible. This page explains, in plain English, what we collect and why. It is a summary written in good faith; the operator of ShellQuest is [your legal entity], contactable at hello@shellquest.io.

What we collect

• Waitlist details. If you join the waitlist we store the email address you give us, and optionally the experience level and track you select, so we can tell you when the app launches and tailor early access.
• Website analytics. We use privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics to count visits and see which pages are useful. It does not track you across sites, does not use cookies, and does not collect personally identifiable information.
• The iOS app. Your learning progress (streaks, XP, answers, review schedule) is stored on your device. There are no accounts and no behavioural tracking in the app today. If we add cloud sync or accounts later, we will update this policy first.

What we don't do

• We do not sell or rent your personal data.
• We do not use advertising trackers.
• We do not collect more than we need to run the service.

How we use it

Waitlist emails are used only to contact you about ShellQuest (launch, founding access, and occasional updates you can unsubscribe from at any time). Analytics are used in aggregate to improve the product.

Third parties

We use a small number of reputable providers to operate the service — for email delivery, analytics, and (when the app launches) payment processing through the Apple App Store. Each only receives the minimum data required to do its job.

Your rights

You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you, or to unsubscribe, at any time by emailing hello@shellquest.io. If you are in the UK or EU you have rights under the UK GDPR / GDPR, including the right to complain to your data protection authority.

Changes

If this policy changes materially, we will update the date above and, where appropriate, notify waitlist subscribers.

This is a good-faith plain-English policy. Before public launch it should be reviewed against your final legal entity, jurisdiction and any payment/account features.
