Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 22, 2026  ·  AuroraVolt Cards  ·  Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada

Short version: We collect only what we need to operate the platform. We don't sell your data. We don't share it with third parties beyond what's necessary to run the service. Canadian users have rights under PIPEDA. US users have rights under applicable state privacy laws.

1. Who we are

AuroraVolt Cards ("AuroraVolt", "we", "us") is operated by Samuel Yaholnitsky, based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. We provide Pokémon TCG market intelligence tools including grading ROI analysis, sealed EV calculations, deck building, and vendor management tools.

Contact: hello@auroravoltcards.com

2. What we collect and why

Account information (if you register): Email address and a hashed password, used to authenticate you and maintain your subscription. We use Clerk for authentication — your credentials are never stored in plaintext by us.

Usage data you create: Watchlists, portfolios, deck lists, tournament logs, and inventory entries you add to the platform. This data is stored so you can access it across sessions. It is yours and you can delete it at any time.

Payment information: Processed by Stripe. We never receive or store your credit card number. We receive a tokenized customer ID and subscription status from Stripe.

Technical data: IP address, browser type, and page visit data collected automatically via Netlify's infrastructure. Used for security monitoring and uptime analysis. Not linked to your identity unless required for abuse investigation.

We do not collect:

3. How we use your data

4. Who we share data with

We use the following sub-processors to operate the service:

Each sub-processor is contractually bound to handle your data securely and only for the purposes we specify. We do not authorize them to use your data for their own marketing.

5. Canadian users — PIPEDA

To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@auroravoltcards.com. We will respond within 30 days.

6. US users

Depending on your state of residence, you may have additional rights under applicable US privacy laws (including California's CCPA/CPRA). These include the right to know what data we collect, the right to delete it, and the right to opt out of sale (we do not sell data). To exercise these rights, contact us at the email above.

7. Cookies and local storage

AuroraVolt uses browser localStorage (not cookies) to remember your preferences, watchlist, and session state on the free tier. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to us unless you have a logged-in account.

We do not use third-party advertising cookies. Netlify and Supabase may set essential session cookies for authenticated functionality.

8. Data retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days except where we are required to retain it for legal or accounting purposes (e.g., billing records, which we keep for 7 years per Canadian tax law).

Anonymized, aggregated usage statistics may be retained indefinitely.

9. Security

We apply industry-standard security practices: HTTPS everywhere, encrypted data at rest in Supabase, Row Level Security (RLS) policies so users can only access their own data, and no API keys exposed to client-side code. Authentication is handled by Clerk with support for multi-factor authentication.

No system is perfectly secure. If you discover a security vulnerability, please disclose it responsibly to hello@auroravoltcards.com.

10. Changes to this policy

We will update this page when our practices change and note the effective date at the top. For material changes affecting how we use personal data, we will notify registered users by email at least 14 days in advance.
