Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

PredictPedia collects minimal information:

• No Personal Information: We do not require registration, email addresses, or any personal details to use the Service.
• No User Accounts: We do not create or store user accounts.
• Local Storage: Your watchlist and preferences are stored locally in your browser and are not transmitted to our servers.
• Anonymous Analytics: We may collect anonymized, aggregated usage statistics to improve the Service (page views, general traffic patterns).

2. Cookies and Local Storage

We use minimal browser storage:

• Essential Cookies: Required for basic site functionality
• Local Storage: Used to save your preferences (theme, watchlist) locally on your device
• No Tracking Cookies: We do not use cookies to track your activity across other websites

3. How We Use Information

Any information collected is used solely to:

• Provide and maintain the Service
• Improve user experience based on aggregate usage patterns
• Detect and prevent technical issues
• Comply with legal obligations

4. Third-Party Services

PredictPedia integrates with third-party services:

• Prediction Market APIs: We fetch public market data from Polymarket and Kalshi APIs. We do not share your data with these platforms.
• News APIs: We aggregate news from third-party providers. Your usage is not shared with these services.
• Analytics: If used, analytics services receive only anonymized, aggregate data.

5. Data Security

Since we collect minimal data, security risks are inherently reduced. The Service is served over HTTPS, and any data that is collected is handled with appropriate security measures. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

6. Children's Privacy

PredictPedia is not intended for users under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children. Prediction markets may have age restrictions in various jurisdictions.

7. Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal data, there is minimal data to manage. However:

• You can clear your browser's local storage to remove any locally saved preferences
• You can disable cookies in your browser settings
• You can contact us with any privacy concerns

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
