Social 4 Beauty

Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are and What This Covers

Social 4 Beauty ("we", "us") is a beauty community app and website operated by Design Nails & Spa, 2568 S Church St C, Murfreesboro, TN 37127, United States.

This Policy explains what we collect, why, who we share it with and what you can do about it. It covers the Social 4 Beauty mobile app, the website at social4beauty.com, and the appointment features connected to them.

By using the Service you accept this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. Information We Collect

Information you give us when you create an account

Phone number — required. We verify it by one-time SMS code. It is how your account is identified.
Name (first and last), shown on your profile and on everything you post.
Email address — optional, used for account recovery and notices.
Password, stored only as a cryptographic hash. We never store, and cannot read, your actual password.
Username and profile photo, if you choose to set them.
Sign-in with Apple, Google or Facebook, if you use one: we receive the identifier that provider gives us, and the name and email address you allow them to share.

What you create and do in the app

Posts, photos, videos, captions and hashtags; stories; comments; reactions; reposts; saved items.
Direct messages you send through the in-app chat.
Follows, and the beauty interests you select.
Reports you file and accounts you block, kept so we can act on them and prevent repeat abuse.

Appointments

If you book a visit, the name, phone number and email you provide for that booking, and the details of the appointment, so the salon can serve you.

Collected automatically

Device and connection data: device model and operating system, app version, language, IP address.
Session records for each sign-in, including device information, so you can see and end your active sessions, and so we can detect stolen credentials.
Push notification token, if you allow notifications.
Usage and diagnostic data — pages and screens viewed, actions taken, errors and crashes.

Device permissions we ask for (you may refuse; the rest of the app still works)

Photo library — to let you choose photos and videos to post.
Saving to your photo library — to let you save a nail look you like.
Notifications — to tell you about activity on your account.

We do not collect precise device location, contacts, health data, or payment card details. Nothing in the app tracks you across other companies' apps or websites for advertising.

3. How We Use It

To create and secure your account, and to verify your phone number.
To show your posts, comments and messages to the people you intend.
To deliver notifications you have not turned off.
To arrange and manage appointments you book.
To keep the community safe: reviewing reports, enforcing our Community Standards, blocking abuse, and detecting fraud or account takeover.
To fix problems and improve the Service, using diagnostic and usage data.
To comply with the law and to enforce our Terms.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it to build advertising profiles.

4. Who We Share It With

Other people on the Service — anything you post publicly is visible to others, including your name and profile photo. Direct messages go to the people in the conversation. Salons see the details of appointments you book with them.

Service providers who work for us, limited to what they need:

Twilio — sends the SMS verification code to your phone.
Microsoft Clarity — usage analytics, including session recordings of how the interface is used (taps, scrolling, screens viewed).
Google Analytics — aggregate usage statistics.
Sentry — crash and error reports, which may include the technical context of the failure and an account identifier.
BoongChat — powers the in-app messaging feature.
Expo / Apple / Google push services — deliver push notifications.
Apple, Google, Facebook — only if you choose to sign in with them.
Hosting and database providers that store the Service's data.

Legal and safety — we may disclose information when the law requires it, or where necessary to investigate abuse, protect somebody's safety, or establish or defend legal claims.

Business transfer — if the Service is sold or reorganised, information may transfer with it; this Policy continues to apply until replaced.

5. Where Your Information Is Held

We operate from the United States and our systems are hosted there. If you use the Service from another country — including Vietnam — your information is transferred to and processed in the United States, where privacy law differs from your own.

6. How Long We Keep It

While your account exists, we keep your account details and content.
When you delete your account, your profile stops being visible immediately. Your content is removed or disconnected from you, except where we must keep something to meet a legal obligation, resolve a dispute, or enforce our Terms — for example a record of enforcement against repeat abuse.
Backups containing residual copies are cycled out within 30 days.
Reports and blocks are kept as long as they are needed to protect the people who filed them.

7. Your Choices and Rights

See and change your details — Settings → Profile.
Delete your account — Settings → Account → Delete account, in the app, or email support@designnailbar.com from your registered address.
Notifications — turn categories off in the app, or all of them in your device settings.
Photo access — revoke it in your device settings at any time.
Sessions — sign out of devices you no longer use.

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to ask for a copy of your information, to have it corrected or deleted, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to complain to your data protection authority. Write to support@designnailbar.com and we will respond within the time the law allows. We will ask you to verify your identity first, so nobody else can make a request about your account.

We do not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

8. Security

Passwords are stored hashed. Sessions use tokens that rotate and can be revoked, and we detect and shut down sessions that show signs of theft. Traffic is encrypted in transit. Access to production data is limited to people who need it.

No service can promise perfect security. Please use a strong, unique password and tell us at support@designnailbar.com if you think somebody else has reached your account.

9. Children

The Service is not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you believe a child has created an account, write to support@designnailbar.com and we will remove it.

10. Cookies and Similar Technologies on the Website

The website uses cookies that are necessary for it to work: they keep you signed in, protect forms against cross-site request forgery, and remember your language. We do not use advertising cookies. Analytics described in Section 4 may set their own identifiers; blocking them in your browser does not stop you using the site.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy. When changes are material we will post the new version in the app and on social4beauty.com, update the "Last Updated" date, and where appropriate notify you in the app or by email.
