We keep things simple and transparent. Here’s a breakdown of the data GelForge collects, why we collect it, and how it’s used.
📋 What We Collect

|---|---|---|
| Username & Email | Your chosen username and email address | To create and manage your account, and communicate with you if needed |
| Password | Encrypted password | To securely authenticate your account |
| Recipe Data | Ingredients, saved blends, shared formulas | To let you build, save, and share your energy gel creations |
| Subscription Tier | Free, Pro, or Advanced | To manage access to premium features and billing logic |

🧪 What We Might Collect in the Future
We’re exploring the option to collect device and usage data (like app version, screen size, or feature usage) to help us understand how GelForge performs and where to improve. If we add this, we’ll update this page and our Privacy Policy and let you know.
🔐 What We Don’t Collect
- No GPS or precise location data
- No health or biometric data
- No third-party ad tracking
- No access to your contacts, photos, or files
🌍 Regional Targeting
We use your IP address to estimate your general region (not your street address!) so we can show affiliate links that are more likely to ship to you. For more, see our Affiliate Disclosure.
