Privacy and safety

Location data deserves care.

Circl only works if people trust it, so the rules below are product decisions rather than a legal afterthought.

Collection

We collect as little as possible. An account needs a name and a way to sign in. We do not ask for a contact list, and we do not buy data about you.

Location

Coordinates exist to draw a live map for your space. Old points are deleted rather than archived for later use.

Who can see it

Location is visible to the people in your invite-only space. Leaving a space stops the sharing immediately.

Our access

Access to production data is restricted, logged and only used to investigate a reported problem.

Money

We do not sell data or run ads. If we ever charge for something, it will be a clearly priced subscription.

Your data, on request

Ask for an export or a full deletion at contact@shapedsocial.co.uk and we will handle it.

Found a security issue?

Email security@shapedsocial.co.uk with enough detail to reproduce it. We will confirm receipt and keep you updated while we fix it.
