Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 20, 2026

This policy describes the information Uncorkd collects, how it's used, and the choices you have. Uncorkd is operated by PikeSquare, LLC.

Questions? Reach us at support@uncorkdwine.app.

1. Information we collect

1.1 Information you provide directly

Account details supplied via Sign in with Apple: a unique user identifier, a display name, and an email address, which may be Apple's relay address if you chose Hide My Email.
Profile information: a handle, a display name, an optional avatar photo, and a chosen accent color.
Check-in content: the wines you log, your notes, ratings, venue if you supply one, date, photos, and friends you tag.
Friend connections, including the user accounts you've added and pending requests.
Reactions you leave on friends' check-ins.

1.2 Information generated automatically

Coarse location, only for venue geocoding when you choose to attach a venue to a check-in. We do not track your location in the background or store precise GPS coordinates.
Crash reports to help diagnose stability problems. These reports do not include the content of your check-ins.

We do not collect your contacts, background location, browsing history outside the app, advertising identifiers, or analytics about how you use third-party apps or websites.

2. How we use information

To provide the core features of the app: your wine journal, friend feed, reactions, and badges.
To deliver push notifications for friend requests, accepted requests, and reactions on your check-ins. You can disable these in iOS Settings.
To diagnose crashes and improve stability.
To enforce our Terms of Use and respond to abuse reports.

We do not use your information to serve ads, build advertising profiles, sell to data brokers, or train external AI models.

3. Who can see your information

Your check-ins, photos, and notes are visible only to friends you have explicitly added in the app. They are not public and are not indexed by search engines.
Your profile is visible to users who search for your handle to add you as a friend.
Reactions you leave are visible to the author of the check-in and to that check-in's other viewers.
Aggregate, non-identifying statistics may appear in marketing materials, but they will never identify an individual user.

4. Where your data is stored

Uncorkd uses Supabase as its backend provider. Your check-ins, profile, photos, and friend graph are stored in Supabase's managed PostgreSQL database and object storage. We use Apple's APNs service to deliver push notifications, and we do not transmit the contents of your check-ins through APNs.

5. How long we keep your data

We retain your data for as long as your account exists. When you delete your account from Settings, your auth record, profile, check-ins, photos, ratings, notes, venue records, reactions, friendships, and account-tied object storage photos are removed. Deletion is permanent.

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights under privacy laws such as the GDPR, CCPA, CPRA, or other local laws. These may include access, correction, deletion, portability, and objection rights. You can exercise access, correction, and deletion rights directly inside the app. For anything else, email support@uncorkdwine.app and we'll respond within 30 days.

7. Children

Uncorkd is not directed to children. You must be at least the legal drinking age in your jurisdiction, 21 in the United States, to use the app. If we learn that we've collected information from a person below that age, we will delete it.

8. Security

Sign-in is handled by Apple. Data in transit is encrypted with TLS. Data at rest is encrypted by our backend provider. Access to the production database is restricted to authorized operators. No system is perfectly secure; if we ever experience a breach that affects you, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The Last updated date at the top reflects the current version. If we make material changes, we'll surface a notice in the app before the change takes effect.
