7. Security of Your Details
We apply standard technical measures (SSL certificates, DB row security, restricted API accesses) to protect your details. However, no internet transfer method is 100% secure; thus we cannot promise absolute protection.
8. Cookie Usage
Currently, Peninsula Connect uses only strictly necessary functional cookies required for authentication and basic navigation (such as session tokens managed by Supabase Auth). We do not use advertising, tracking, or analytics cookies at this time. This may change in the future if we integrate additional tools such as Google Analytics or similar services, in which case this policy will be updated accordingly. Learn more in our Cookie Policy.

Our directory is not for children under 18. We do not collect information from minors. If we find details of a minor in our system, we will delete them immediately.
10. Database Location and International Transfers
Database servers are located in global cloud datacenters outside Costa Rica. By registering, you understand and accept that your information will be hosted and processed internationally. All providers used by Peninsula Connect apply industry-standard security measures — including encryption, access controls, and compliance frameworks — to protect your data during storage and transfer.
11. Platform Ownership Transfer
Peninsula Connect may transfer the ownership and operation of the platform to another individual or legal entity. In such event, this Privacy Policy shall continue to apply under the same terms, and users will be notified through the platform or by email when required by law.
