Privacy

Current is built with restraint. We collect only what is necessary for the service to function, and nothing more.

We do not sell your data. We do not run ads. We do not profile you for targeting.

What We Store

To operate Current, we store:

  • Your username and email
  • A hashed version of your password (never the password itself)
  • The content you create: posts, comments, votes, bookmarked streams, and notifications
  • Basic system data required to keep the service running

We do not store:

  • Payment information
  • Private messages (Current does not have DM)
  • Advertising or tracking profiles

Cookies

Current uses a small number of essential cookies required for the app to function.

These cookies are used to:

  • Keep you signed in (session cookie)
  • Protect sign-in requests (CSRF protection)
  • Remember your sign-in route during authentication (callback URL)

These cookies:

  • Are not used for advertising
  • Are not used for tracking across websites
  • Are not optional, as the app cannot function without them

We do not use cookies for analytics or marketing purposes.

Analytics

We use a privacy-first analytics tool (Umami) to understand how Current is used at a high level.

This analytics setup:

  • Does not use cookies
  • Does not track you across websites
  • Does not create personal profiles
  • Is used only to see aggregate activity (such as page visits)

Analytics exists to help us keep the service healthy, not to optimize or manipulate behavior.

How Data Is Handled

Your data is hosted with a secure infrastructure provider.

Access is restricted and used only for:

  • Keeping the service running
  • Investigating bugs
  • Responding to reports or abuse
  • Providing support when you ask for it

We do not access content unless it is necessary for moderation or technical reasons.

Your Control

You can request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting:

hello@usecurrent.app

We will handle deletion quietly and without friction.

Our Position

Current is not built to extract value from personal data. It exists to let conversations flow, not to track, rank, or optimize people.

If a future feature would require collecting more data, we will revisit this policy transparently.
