Overview
Dead Media Labs ("we", "us", "our") operates the Dead Media mobile application. This policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our app and related services.

- Collection data — discs, reviews, ratings, and wishlist items you add to your profile.
- Marketplace data — listings you create, messages with other users, and transaction details.
- Photos — spine images and listing photos you choose to upload.
- Usage data — basic app analytics to improve the experience.
How We Use Your Data
- To provide and maintain the Dead Media app and your account.
- To display your collection, reviews, and listings to other users based on your privacy settings.
- To facilitate marketplace transactions and messaging between buyers and sellers.

Third-Party Services
We integrate with the following services to operate the app:

Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We only share data as necessary to operate the services listed above, or if required by law. Your collection, reviews, and profile data are visible to other Dead Media users.
Data Retention
We retain your account and collection data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account through the app, all associated data is permanently removed from our systems within 30 days, including your collection, reviews, listings, messages, uploaded images, and profile information. Anonymized, aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely as it cannot be linked back to you.

If you access the app from outside the US, your data will be transferred to and processed in the US. By using the app, you consent to this transfer. We take reasonable steps to ensure your data is protected in accordance with this privacy policy regardless of where it is processed.
