This project and its data are managed by the project owner (the portfolio author). For any privacy question or to request deletion of your data, you can get in touch at the contact address listed on the portfolio that links to this demo.

We only collect what is needed to run the demo:

• Account details — the name and email address you provide when registering, and your password (stored only as a secure, irreversible hash — never in plain text).
• Login & session data — to keep you signed in, we store session records that include your IP address and browser user-agent string.
• Polls you create — the title, description, options, and chosen duration of any poll you create, linked to your account. Poll content is visible to every signed-in user of the demo (only your display name is shown alongside a poll — not your email).
• Your votes — the option you select on a poll is recorded and linked to your account so the same person cannot vote twice on one poll. This means your individual vote is associated with your identity within the demo.
• Appearance preference — your light/dark/system theme choice, stored in your browser.

• To create and authenticate your account and keep you logged in.
• To let you create polls, vote, and see results.
• To send password-reset messages when you request them — only if outbound mail is configured for this deployment. We do not send marketing email.

We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for advertising or profiling.

Poll results update live using a WebSocket connection. When a vote changes, only an internal poll identifier is broadcast to connected browsers — your name, email, or which option you personally voted for is never broadcast.

We only use cookies that are necessary for the app to work:

• A session cookie that keeps you signed in.
• A CSRF-protection token to keep form submissions secure.
• A small preference value for your chosen theme.

There are no third-party advertising, analytics, or tracking cookies.

We do not share your data with third parties for their own purposes. The demo is supported only by the infrastructure needed to run it — such as the hosting provider and, where configured, an email-sending service — which process data solely on the project owner's behalf.

Because this is a demo, data is not kept long-term and may be cleared at any time. You can also delete your account yourself at any moment from Settings → Profile, which removes your account and personal details from the demo.

• Update your name or email from Settings → Profile.
• Delete your account (and associated personal data) from Settings → Profile.
• Contact the project owner with any privacy request.

This demo supports registration, login, and password reset only. Email verification, two-factor authentication, and passkeys are disabled on this deployment — those routes are not registered and no verification emails, 2FA secrets, recovery codes, or passkey credentials are collected.

In the default demo setup, outbound mail is not delivered to your inbox: password-reset messages are written to the application log only unless you configure real mail delivery.

This notice may be updated as the demo evolves. The date at the top reflects the most recent change.
