Privacy Policy
Effective Date: March 3, 2026
Bucket ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you use the Bucket website and related services.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Account Information
If you choose to create an account to sync your bookmarks across devices, we collect your email address and authentication details. You can also use the service completely anonymously as a guest, in which case we do not require or collect any account information.
1.2 Bookmark Data
We process and store the URLs and associated metadata (tags, titles, descriptions) that you save.
- Anonymous Users: Your bookmarks are stored entirely locally on your device.
- Registered Users: Your bookmarks are securely synced to our servers so you can access them anywhere.
1.3 Usage Data
We may collect basic, anonymous usage metrics and error logs to help us understand how the app is used and to improve service reliability.
1.4 Link Enrichment
When you save a URL, our backend may fetch that URL's public metadata (such as the page title, favicon, and Open Graph preview image) to enrich your bookmark's display. We do not track your browsing history; we only fetch information for the specific links you explicitly save to Bucket.
2. How We Use Your Data
- To provide the bookmarking and syncing service.
- To enrich your saved links with relevant metadata.
- To communicate service updates or security alerts.
- To ensure system stability and prevent abuse.
3. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your account and bookmark data. Communication between your browser and our servers is encrypted (HTTPS/TLS).
4. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access the personal data and bookmarks we hold about you.
- Request deletion of your account and associated data.
- Export all your bookmarks at any time.
5. Contact Us
If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, please contact us.
