Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 21, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Two Porch Lights ("Two Porch Lights," "we," "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website and app at twoporchlights.com (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to this policy.

Who the Service is for

The Service is intended for use by adults (18 or older) who are co-parents. It is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly create accounts for children. Parents may enter information about their children (such as a first name) as part of organizing finances and schedules; this information is provided and controlled by the parent.

Information we collect

  • Account information — the email address and password you use to create an account. Passwords are stored in hashed form by our authentication provider; we never see your plain-text password.
  • Content you enter — the information you add to the app, such as parents' and children's names, expenses, payments, child-support and cost-sharing details, parenting schedules and calendar events, and notes between co-parents.
  • Payment information — if you subscribe, payments are processed by Stripe. We do not collect or store your full card number. We receive limited details from Stripe (such as your billing email and subscription status) to unlock and manage your access.
  • Technical information — basic information your browser sends automatically (such as device/browser type and approximate request data) used to operate and secure the Service.

How we use your information

  • To provide the Service — saving your data and, if you choose, syncing it between you and your linked co-parent.
  • To process subscriptions, free trials, renewals, and cancellations.
  • To respond to support requests and communicate about your account.
  • To maintain security, prevent abuse, and comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

How your data is stored and who processes it

When you use a shared cloud account, your data is stored in our database so both linked parents can see the same information. We rely on a small number of service providers ("processors") to run the Service:

  • Supabase — database and account authentication (stores your account and app data).
  • Stripe — subscription payments and billing.
  • Netlify — website and app hosting.

If you use the app without a cloud account, your data is stored only in your own browser on your device and is not uploaded to us.

Sharing your information

We share information only as needed to run the Service: with your linked co-parent (the person who joins your shared space with your invite code sees the shared data you create), with the processors listed above, and when required by law or to protect rights and safety. We do not otherwise sell or rent your information.

Data security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS), accounts are protected by passwords, and database access is restricted by row-level security so users can only reach their own (or their shared space's) data. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

Your choices and rights

  • Access & correction — you can view and edit your data directly in the app.
  • Deletion — you may request deletion of your account and associated data by emailing us (see below). Depending on where you live (for example, under GDPR or California's CCPA/CPRA), you may have additional rights to access, correct, delete, or port your data, and to object to certain processing.
  • Cancellation — you can cancel your subscription at any time; see the Terms of Service.

Data retention

We keep your information while your account is active and as needed to provide the Service. When you delete your account, we delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where we must retain limited records (for example, billing records) to meet legal obligations.

Local storage & cookies

The app uses your browser's local storage to save your data and preferences on your device, and uses essential cookies/tokens for sign-in. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.

Children's privacy

The Service is for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will address it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will be communicated through the Service or by email where appropriate.
