Effective date: 2026-08-08. darkfill.com ("Darkfill", "we") collects only what it needs to run accounts, memberships and notifications on darkfill.com; we do not sell your personal information, and we do not use advertising trackers.
1. What we collect.
| Information | When | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | When you sign in or register | To identify your account and send sign-in codes, trial reminders and billing notices |
| Sign-in records: IP address, browser type, session times | Each time you sign in or use the site | To keep you signed in, protect accounts from abuse and limit repeated attempts |
| Agreement record: the subscription terms shown to you, the time, IP address and browser type | When you tick the box and go to payment | To prove what you agreed to before you were charged |
| Stripe customer ID, subscription status, renewal and trial dates | When you subscribe or your subscription changes | To know whether you are a member and when you renew. Card details stay with Stripe; we never receive your full card number |
| Invite code redemptions | When you redeem a code | To apply your membership time and enforce each code's limits |
| Notification subscription: browser push address and keys, your alert choices, device type | Only if you turn on notifications | To send the alerts you chose |
| Server logs: time, IP address, account email, request outcome | When you use the site | Security, troubleshooting and fraud prevention |
2. Cookies. We use only cookies the site needs: a sign-in cookie (df_sess, up to 30 days), a language cookie (df_lang) and a short-lived cookie that returns you to the page you were viewing after sign-in (df_next, 10 minutes). We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
3. Legal bases (EU, UK and similar laws). We process your information to perform our contract with you (account, membership, payments); for our legitimate interests in security and fraud prevention; to meet legal obligations such as tax and accounting records; and with your consent for push notifications, which you can withdraw at any time in your browser or account settings.
4. Who processes it for us. We share information only with service providers that run the Service for us, under their own privacy terms:
- Stripe — payments, invoices and the billing portal;
- Amazon Web Services — server hosting and email delivery (Amazon SES);
- Browser push services (Google, Mozilla, Apple, Microsoft) — delivering notifications you turned on.
We may also disclose information when the law requires it, to protect rights and safety, or as part of a sale or reorganization of the business, under the same protections.
5. Where it is stored. Our servers are in the United States. If you live elsewhere, your information is transferred to and processed in the US, with safeguards required by applicable law.
6. How long we keep it.
- Sign-in codes: deleted after use or within 10 minutes.
- Sessions: up to 30 days after your last sign-in.
- Account, membership and invite records: while your account exists, then deleted within 30 days of an account deletion request.
- Agreement and billing records: as long as needed for tax, accounting and dispute purposes, normally up to 7 years.
- Server logs: 90 days.
7. Your rights. Depending on where you live, you may ask to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your information, object to or restrict some processing, or withdraw consent. Email info@darkfill.com from your account email; we reply within 30 days. We may keep records we are legally required to keep. You may also complain to your local data-protection authority. California residents: we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we will not discriminate against you for using your rights.
8. Security. Sessions and sign-in codes are stored only as hashes, connections use HTTPS, and access to our servers is restricted. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects you, we will notify you as the law requires.
9. Age. The Service is for people 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
10. Changes. We will post updates here with a new effective date, and email you about material changes before they take effect.
