Privacy

What's public

• Reports, their screenshots and comments, with your username or display name. You can post reports anonymously.
• The number of people who joined a case and their combined losses.
• Lawyer listings.

What stays private

• Your email address. Lawyers and other members never see it.
• Which cases you joined and how much you lost. Only totals are public.
• Your messages, which only you and the other participant can read.
• Who wrote an anonymous report. Moderators can see it to deal with abuse.

What we collect

• Your email address, to sign you in and send notifications you can switch off.
• What you post: reports, screenshots, comments, losses you enter and messages.
• Images are re-encoded in your browser before upload, which removes location and camera data.
• A session cookie to keep you signed in. We don't use advertising trackers.
• Anonymous visit counts and page-speed measurements, without cookies. Search terms are never included.
• For lawyers: listing details and billing status. Card details are handled by Stripe and never reach us.

Who processes data for us

• Supabase (database, file storage and sign-in).
• Stripe (lawyer payments).
• Resend (email delivery).
• Vercel (hosting, visit statistics, and checking that forms are sent by people, not bots).

Your choices

• Change your username, display name and email preferences in Settings.
• Listed lawyers can message you through the site about cases you reported or joined. It starts on; switch it off for any case. They never see your email.
• Ask for a copy of your data or to delete your account by emailing support@scammarketcap.com from your sign-in address.

Retention

We keep your account data while your account exists. When you delete your account we remove your profile, messages and the cases you joined; reports you filed can be deleted or kept anonymously, at your choice.
