Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 2025
Our Privacy Philosophy
At Free for All eCards, we believe privacy is a fundamental right. We've designed our service to collect as little personal information as possible while still providing you with a great experience. This policy explains exactly what we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it.
Information We Collect
Account Information (Optional)
If you choose to create an account, we collect:
- • Email address (for account recovery and important notifications)
- • Password (encrypted and never stored in plain text)
- • Account creation date
Card Content
When you create or contribute to cards, we store:
- • Card titles and themes
- • Messages and content you add to cards
- • Images and media files you upload
- • Names associated with contributions (only what you provide)
Technical Information
Like most websites, we automatically collect some technical information:
- • IP address (for security and analytics)
- • Browser type and version
- • Device information (mobile, desktop, etc.)
- • Usage patterns (which features are used most)
What We DON'T Collect
We believe in minimal data collection. Here's what we specifically don't collect:
- • Personal information beyond what you voluntarily provide
- • Location data or GPS information
- • Social media profiles or third-party account information
- • Browsing history from other websites
- • Financial information (we don't charge for anything)
- • Phone numbers or physical addresses
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect only for these purposes:

- • Security: Protecting against spam, abuse, and unauthorized access
- • Improvement: Understanding how people use the service to make it better
- • Communication: Sending important service updates (very rarely)

We never sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. The only times we share information are:
- • With card recipients: When you share a card, recipients can see the content you intended them to see
- • Legal requirements: If required by law or to protect our users' safety
- • Service providers: With trusted partners who help us run the service (they're bound by strict privacy agreements)
