When We Share Information (Rarely!)

Important: We never sell your data!

We only share information in very limited circumstances, and never for marketing or profit.

Service Providers

We work with trusted companies that help us deliver our service (like email delivery and payment processing). They can only use your data to provide services to us and must protect it with the same standards we use.

Examples: Stripe (payments), email delivery services, cloud hosting

Legal Requirements

If required by law or to protect safety, we may share information with authorities. This would only happen in serious situations and we'd notify you unless legally prohibited.

Business Transfer

If A Little Boop is acquired by another company, your information would transfer with the same privacy protections. We'd notify you before this happens.
