Privacy Policy
Effective September 22, 2026 · AHKUNA public beta
This policy describes the information used by AHKUNA’s website and installed beta web app. Contact AHKUNA at founders@ahkuna.com for support, safety, privacy questions, or account requests.
This is a test beta. Checkout uses Stripe’s sandbox. Do not enter real payment or bank details in test forms. Use fictional customer and business records when testing.
Information you provide
- Accounts: sign-in email, authentication information, display name, and profile or store details you choose to enter.
- Marketplace activity: listing descriptions, prices, photos, public location details, saved items, reviews, messages, custom offers, and order information.
- Business tools: customer details, notes, estimates, invoices, projects, and records you choose to import. These records are separate from public listings.
- Support and review: feedback, safety reports, account requests, and information submitted for professional or listing review.
How information is used
The website uses information to sign you in, display stores and listings, support buyer–seller conversations, save business records, process test-checkout results, and let review staff handle moderation and support. Account identifiers and timestamps associate records with their owners and support security and troubleshooting.
Public information and other members
Published listings, public stores, public reviews, and business details marked public can be viewed by other visitors. Information you put in a description, photo, review, public business address, or yard-sale event may reveal personal details. Do not include information you want kept private in public content.
Messages are available to conversation participants. Invoice links and receipts are intended for the people you share them with; treat those links as private. Reports and account-removal requests are available to the submitting member and authorized AHKUNA review staff, rather than displayed publicly.
Services used by the website
AHKUNA uses Supabase for account authentication, database records, and file storage, Vercel for website hosting, and Stripe for hosted payment and seller-setup screens. These providers process information needed for their services. Hosting and authentication services can process technical information such as IP addresses, browser details, request times, and errors.
Card and bank entry takes place on Stripe-hosted screens. AHKUNA stores payment references, amounts, fees, statuses, and seller-readiness information. Stripe handles the information entered in its hosted forms under its own privacy notice.
Optional ZIP search sends the searched ZIP to the Zippopotam.us lookup service. Opening maps, social links, or other external links takes you to those providers. Their privacy policies govern their own services.
Browser storage
The website uses browser storage for sign-in sessions, interface preferences, and browsing state such as search filters. Clearing browser storage can sign you out and reset local preferences; it does not delete records already saved to your account.
Your choices and requests
You can edit supported profile and store fields, control optional public location information, and use available export tools for business records. Use a listing’s or store’s Report control for a safety concern. Blocking in Messages limits new communication; it does not erase existing messages or orders.
To request access, correction, deletion, or information about your data, email founders@ahkuna.com. You may also use Account → Privacy & account requests → Request account removal while signed in. Email remains available if you cannot sign in. Do not email passwords, full payment details, or identity documents.
Account removal and retention
Submitting an account-removal request does not immediately delete data, unpublish listings, cancel subscriptions, close payment links, or settle transactions. It records a request for manual review. Ownership must be verified before deletion. Transaction, dispute, security, or other records may need separate retention review; deleting an account does not necessarily remove records held by another participant or an independent provider.
The beta does not provide a universal automatic deletion schedule. Contact AHKUNA to ask what records remain for your account and how your request will be handled. A saved request receipt confirms receipt only, not that deletion has been completed.
Changes and questions
Changes to this policy will appear on this page with an updated effective date. Contact founders@ahkuna.com with questions about this policy or a privacy concern.
