1. Information We Collect

To provide and improve our Service, we collect several different types of information.

(a) Information You Provide Directly

• Account Information: When you register for a Tattooify account, we ask for information like your name and email address.

We use this information to operate the Service, communicate with you, and improve your experience. Without this information, some features of the Service may not be available to you.

(b) Information from Third-Party Logins

If you choose to register or log in to Tattooify using a third-party service like Google, we may receive information from that service, such as your basic profile information and email address. You can typically control the information we receive through your privacy settings on that third-party service.

We take the security of your data seriously. We use commercially reasonable physical, administrative, and technological safeguards to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
