My Local Forum Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2, 2026
Overview
My Local Forum is a local forum app that lets people create accounts, view forum sections, post content, comment, like content, follow or block users, send direct messages, and manage profile information.
Information We Collect
When you use My Local Forum, the app may collect and store the information needed to run its features, including your email address, user ID, nickname, profile picture URL, role, coins, purchased or displayed store items, follow and block lists, posts, comments, likes, reports, direct messages, and timestamps.
How We Use Information
We use this information to create and secure accounts, show forum content, display profiles, support moderation, process in-app forum store activity, prevent abuse, and provide direct messaging between eligible users.
Firebase Services
My Local Forum uses Firebase Authentication and Cloud Firestore. These services may process account, app, device, and usage data as needed to provide authentication, database storage, security, diagnostics, and reliability.
Advertising
If ads are enabled in the app, advertising partners such as Google may use device or advertising identifiers and related app activity to deliver, measure, and improve ads, subject to the user's device settings and the partner's privacy controls.
User Content
Posts, comments, profile names, profile pictures, and some profile activity may be visible to other users. Direct messages are intended for the participants in the conversation, but they are still stored so the messaging feature can work.
Data Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared with service providers that operate the app infrastructure, comply with legal requirements, protect users, investigate abuse, or enforce app rules.
Your Choices
You can update profile information inside the app where editing is available. You can delete your own posts or comments where the app provides that control. You can block users and manage who you follow. To request account or data deletion, contact the developer using the support contact listed on the app store page.
Children's Privacy
My Local Forum is not intended for children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact the developer so the information can be reviewed and removed where required.
Security
We use Firebase platform security features and app access controls to help protect data. No system is perfectly secure, so users should avoid posting sensitive personal information in public forum areas.
Changes to This Policy
This privacy policy may be updated when the app changes. The updated policy will be available on this website and inside the app where available.
Contact
For privacy questions or deletion requests, contact the developer through the support contact listed on the app store page.
