Privacy Policy
Last updated September 9, 2026
PHOOM is operated by maiko cafe, based in Ontario, Canada. This policy explains how PHOOM handles information when you create a page, visit a creator, join the waitlist, or contact us.
In brief: content you publish is public. Messages sent to a creator are shared with that creator. Optional PHOOM analytics require your permission. You can request access to or deletion of your information by contacting privacy@phoom.page.
01Information we collect
- Accounts: your email, username, display name, account preferences, and identifiers received when you sign in with Google or Discord. PHOOM uses these provider identifiers to recognize your account. PHOOM does not receive your Google or Discord password.
- Creator content: page text, links, images, files, credits, schedules, and settings you provide.
- Messages and submissions: inquiry and commission details, contact information, attachments, guestbook entries, and support correspondence that you submit.
- Waitlist: the email address you provide and signup information needed to manage launch notifications.
- Subscriptions: plan, billing status, and payment-provider identifiers. Stripe processes payment details; PHOOM does not store your full payment-card number.
- Technical information: request and security logs may include IP address, browser or device information, and request timing. With analytics permission, PHOOM also records page visits and interactions, referring sites, campaign parameters, and a pseudonymous visitor identifier.
- Referrals: referral codes and account attribution when a signup follows a referral link or an eligible account supplies a code.
02What other people can see
Published pages, creator-selected contact details, credits, and public guestbook entries can be viewed and copied by others. Search engines may index published pages. Only share information and files you have permission to publish.
Inquiries and commission requests, including the contact details and attachments you submit, are available to the receiving creator. They may reply through their own email service. Do not submit information you do not want that creator to receive.
Creators may receive page and interaction statistics. A typed email address is contact information, not proof of account identity. Public account attribution uses an authenticated account where that feature is available.
Unpublished content is not listed as a published page. However, files delivered through shareable media URLs should not be treated as confidential storage. A recipient may retain copies of content or messages they have already received.
03How we use information
- Provide accounts, host creator pages, and deliver the messages and features you request.
- Manage subscriptions, billing, referrals, and launch notifications.
- Respond to support and privacy requests and send service-related notices.
- Understand page and feature usage when you allow analytics.
- Prevent abuse, investigate errors, protect accounts, and meet applicable legal obligations.
Where data-protection law requires a legal basis, processing depends on the purpose: providing the service you request, your consent for optional analytics, legitimate interests such as security and support, or legal obligations. Your available rights depend on where you live and the processing involved.
05Service providers and sharing
PHOOM uses providers to operate the service, including Vercel for hosting and optional web analytics, Neon for databases, UploadThing for uploads and file delivery, Stripe for payments, Resend for service email, and Cloudflare for delivery or security services. Google and Discord process sign-in through their own services. Support email is handled through our email provider.
Information is shared with the providers needed for the relevant function. It may also be disclosed when required by law, to address abuse or protect rights and safety, or as part of a business transfer. PHOOM does not sell your personal information.
06External content and embeds
Creators may include content from services such as YouTube, Twitch, Spotify, Apple Music, or other supported providers. Loading an embed or following an external link can send information, including your IP address and browser details, to that provider. Its own privacy policy and storage practices apply.
Some embeds load automatically when a creator page opens, before you press play. PHOOM's analytics controls do not block a third party's embedded player or website. Browser privacy controls or content blockers may offer additional restrictions.
07Retention and deletion
Account and creator content are kept while needed to provide the service. Retention also depends on the type of information, support needs, security investigations, billing obligations, and applicable law.
To request account or other data deletion, contact privacy@phoom.page. Deletion requests are reviewed and processed through support; sending a request does not instantly remove an account. We may need to verify ownership and explain any information that must be retained.
Removing active records does not immediately remove every backup, provider log, cached copy, or copy held by a message recipient. Backup and provider retention follow the applicable operational schedules. Ask us for the retention information relevant to your request. Billing or security records may need to remain for legal or safety reasons.
08Your requests and rights
Depending on applicable law, you may be able to request access, correction, deletion, a copy of your information, restriction of processing, or to object to certain uses. You can withdraw optional analytics permission at any time without affecting processing that occurred before withdrawal. You may also have the right to complain to your local data-protection authority.
Contact privacy@phoom.page with the request and enough context to locate the relevant account or submission. Do not send passwords or payment-card details. We may request proportionate identity verification before disclosing or changing private information.
09Security and international processing
PHOOM uses account authentication and access controls to limit access to private information. Providers also operate infrastructure security controls. No website or storage system can guarantee absolute security.
PHOOM and its providers may process information in countries other than your own, where privacy laws may differ. Contact us if you need information about the providers or transfer arrangements relevant to your data.
10Age requirements
PHOOM is not intended for children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and address it.
11Updates and contact
Changes to this policy will be reflected in the date above. Significant changes may also be communicated through the service or by email where appropriate.
