At Bronn Software, your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to our website and to the applications we publish, including Focus Now, Markdown Viewer & Editor, Life Group Dashboard, and ClaritateAI.

1. Information we collect

We only collect what we need to provide and improve our services:

  • Contact information — such as your name, email address, and any details you choose to include when you use our contact form.
  • Newsletter details — your first name and email address when you subscribe, along with your consent.
  • Usage information — basic, anonymised analytics about how the website is used, to help us improve it.
  • App data — where one of our apps requires data to function (for example, settings or content you create), it is handled as described in that app's own privacy notice.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your enquiries and provide the services you request;
  • Send you newsletter content you have explicitly opted in to receive;
  • Operate, maintain, and improve our website and applications;
  • Meet our legal and regulatory obligations.

3. Legal basis for processing

We process your personal information on the basis of your consent (for example, newsletter signup), to fulfil a request you have made (such as a contact enquiry), and to pursue our legitimate interests in running and improving our business — always balanced against your rights.

4. Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We only share data with trusted service providers who help us operate (such as email and hosting providers), and only to the extent necessary. These providers are bound to protect your information and use it solely on our behalf.

5. Data retention

We keep your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. When it is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

6. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you;
  • Request correction of inaccurate information;
  • Request deletion of your information;
  • Withdraw consent at any time, including unsubscribing from our newsletter;
  • Object to or restrict certain processing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at admin@bronnsoftware.co.za.

7. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to safeguard your data appropriately.

8. Cookies

Our website may use a small number of cookies and similar technologies to function correctly and to understand how it is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

9. App-specific privacy policies

Each of our published applications maintains its own privacy policy to reflect how it handles data:

Where an app's policy differs from this one, the app-specific policy applies to that app.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "last updated" date above. We encourage you to review it periodically.
