5. Data Security

We apply industry-standard measures to protect your data, including:

No online service is completely secure, so we encourage you to keep your login credentials safe and notify us immediately of any suspected unauthorized access.

9. User-Generated Content & Sharing

Apps and projects created on Darvin are private by default. If you choose to share your project publicly or publish it to app stores, some project data (e.g., app name, descriptions, assets) may become accessible to others. You are responsible for the content you share and its compliance with relevant laws and app store guidelines.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our services evolve. Material changes will be communicated via email or a prominent notice on our website. Continued use of Darvin after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.
